* Convert update-index references in docs to add.Shawn O. Pearce2007-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing update-index.

* Documentation/tutorial-2: Fix interesting typo in an example.Junio C Hamano2007-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | Marco Candrian noticed that one cat-file example refers to a blob object that is never used in the example sequence. The bug is interesting in that the output from the botched sample command is consistent with the incorrect blob object name ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* "init-db" can really be just "init"Nicolas Pitre2007-01-07
| | | | | | | | Make "init" the equivalent of "init-db". This should make first GIT impression a little more friendly. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Align section headers of 'git status' to new 'git add'.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index' and that the 'git add' documentation states "Even modified files must be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and common usage. So now we see a status output such as: # Added but not yet committed: # (will commit) # # new file: x # # Changed but not added: # (use "git add file1 file2" to include for commit) # # modified: x # # Untracked files: # (use "git add" on files to include for commit) # # y which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is). We also now support 'color.status.added' as an alias for the existing 'color.status.updated', as this alias more closely aligns with the current output and documentation. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* Provide more meaningful output from 'git init-db'.Shawn O. Pearce2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Back in the old days of Git when people messed around with their GIT_DIR environment variable more often it was nice to know whether or not git-init-db created a .git directory or used GIT_DIR. As most users at that time were rather technical UNIXy folk the message "defaulting to local storage area" made sense to some and seemed reasonable. But it doesn't really convey any meaning to the new Git user, as they don't know what a 'local storage area is' nor do they know enough about Git to care. It also really doesn't tell the experienced Git user a whole lot about the command they just ran, especially if they might be reinitializing an existing repository (e.g. to update hooks). So now we print out what we did ("Initialized empty" or "Reinitialized existing"), what type of repository ("" or "shared"), and what location the repository will be in ("$GIT_DIR"). Suggested in part by Andy Parkins in his Git 'niggles' list (<200612132237.10051.andyparkins@gmail.com>). Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* make commit message a little more consistent and confortingNicolas Pitre2006-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is nicer to let the user know when a commit succeeded all the time, not only the first time. Also the commit sha1 is much more useful than the tree sha1 in this case. This patch also introduces a -q switch to supress this message as well as the summary of created/deleted files.

* git-commit: show --summary after successful commit.Junio C Hamano2006-11-25
| | | | | | | | Sometimes people accidentally commit files in wrong mode bits. Show --summary output for the HEAD commit after successful commit as a final sanity check. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
