* | | run-command documentation: fix "memset()" parameterMiklos Vajna2008-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When initializing the struct async and struct child_process structures, the documentation suggested "clearing" the structure with '0' instead of '\0'. It is enough to use integer zero here. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna <vmiklos@frugalware.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* | | git add: add long equivalents of '-u' and '-f' optionsSZEDER Gábor2008-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The option -u stands for --update and it is a good idea to make it clear especially because this is the only mode of operation of "git add" that does something different from "adding". Give longer --force synonym to -f while we are at it as well. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| * | | remote prune: print the list of pruned branchesOlivier Marin2008-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This command is really too quiet which make it unconfortable to use. Also implement a --dry-run option, in place of the original -n one, to list stale tracking branches that will be pruned, but do not actually prune them. Add a test case for --dry-run.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The perl version accepted a -n flag, to show local informations only without querying remote heads, that seems to have been lost in the C revrite.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section. Some are: -f, --foo:: -f|--foo:: -f | --foo:: But AsciiDoc has the special form: -f:: --foo:: This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite, and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old description was misleading and logically impossible. It claimed that the ancestors of the original commit would be re-written to have the multiple emitted ids as parents. Not only would this modify existing objects, but it would create a cycle. What this actually does is pass the multiple emitted ids to the newly-created children to use as parents. Signed-off-by: Kevin Ballard <kevin@sb.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This teaches "git init" its own "--bare" option, so that both "git --bare init" and "git init --bare" works mostly the same way.

And this file is included by both the user manual and the gitglossary man page. Other documents that reference the above ones are changed accordingly and sometimes improved a little too.
