* Add push --set-upstreamIlari Liusvaara2010-01-16
| | | | | | | | | | Frequent complaint is lack of easy way to set up upstream (tracking) references for git pull to work as part of push command. So add switch --set-upstream (-u) to do just that.

| * | | "reset --merge": fix unmerged caseJunio C Hamano2010-01-03

But it wished if unmerged entries were reset as if --hard (instead of --merge) has been used. This makes sense because all "mergy" operations makes sure that any path involved in the merge does not have local modifications before starting, so resetting such a path away won't lose any information. The previous commit changed the behavior of --merge to accept resetting unmerged entries if they are reset to a different state than HEAD, but it did not reset the changes in the work tree, leaving the conflict markers in the resulting file in the work tree. Fix it by doing three things: - Update the documentation to match the wish of original "reset --merge" better, namely, "An unmerged entry is a sign that the path didn't have any local modification and can be safely resetted to whatever the new HEAD records"; - Update read_index_unmerged(), which reads the index file into the cache while dropping any higher-stage entries down to stage #0, not to copy the object name from the higher stage entry. The code used to take the object name from the a stage entry ("base" if you happened to have stage #1, or "ours" if both sides added, etc.), which essentially meant that you are getting random results depending on what the merge did. The _only_ reason we want to keep a previously unmerged entry in the index at stage #0 is so that we don't forget the fact that we have corresponding file in the work tree in order to be able to remove it when the tree we are resetting to does not have the path. In order to differentiate such an entry from ordinary cache entry, the cache entry added by read_index_unmerged() is marked as CE_CONFLICTED. - Update merged_entry() and deleted_entry() so that they pay attention to cache entries marked as CE_CONFLICTED. They are previously unmerged entries, and the files in the work tree that correspond to them are resetted away by oneway_merge() to the version from the tree we are resetting to.

| * | | reset: use "unpack_trees()" directly instead of "git read-tree"Stephan Beyer2010-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes "reset_index_file()" call "unpack_trees()" directly instead of forking and execing "git read-tree". So the code is more efficient. And it's also easier to see which unpack_tree() options will be used, as we don't need to follow "git read-tree"'s command line parsing which is quite complex. As Daniel Barkalow found, there is a difference between this new version and the old one. The old version gives an error for "git reset --merge" with unmerged entries, and the new version does not when we reset the entries to some states that differ from HEAD. Instead, it resets the index entry and succeeds, while leaving the conflict markers in the corresponding file in the work tree (which will be corrected by the next patch). The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project: git://repo.or.cz/git/sbeyer.git (at commit 5a78908b70ceb5a4ea9fd4b82f07ceba1f019079) Mentored-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Mentored-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Stephan Beyer <s-beyer@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Christian Couder <chriscool@tuxfamily.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The disadvantages are: - Porcelain tools are not aware of this. Everytime you do an operation that may update working directory, skip-worktree may be cleared out. You have to set them again. - You still have to remove skip-worktree'd files manually, which is boring and ineffective. These will be addressed in the following patches. This patch gives an idea what is "sparse checkout" in Documentation/git-read-tree.txt. This file is chosen instead of git-checkout.txt because it is quite technical and user-unfriendly. I'd expect git-checkout.txt to have something when Porcelain support is done. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

These commands have been checked/modified to populate index before doing directory listing. add_excludes_from_file() does not enable this feature, because it is used to read .git/info/exclude and some explicit files specified by "git ls-files".

When this is enabled, curl has to do double requests most of the time, in order to discover which HTTP authentication method to use, which lowers the performance slightly. Therefore this isn't enabled by default. One example of another authentication scheme to use is digest, which doesn't send the password in plaintext, but uses a challenge-response mechanism instead. Using digest authentication in practice requires at least curl 7.18.1, due to bugs in the digest handling in earlier versions of curl.

This works well for upload-pack and receive-pack, which take a repository argument through git-shell. This doesn't work so well for `cvs server', which is passed through literally, with no arguments. Allowing arguments risks sneaking in `--export-all', so that restriction should be maintained. Despite that, passing a repository root is necessary for per-user access control by the hosting software, and passing a base path improves usability without weakening security. Thus, git-cvsserver needs to come up with these values at runtime by some other means. Since git-shell preserves the environment for other purposes, the environment can carry these arguments as well. Thus, modify git-cvsserver to read $GIT_CVSSERVER_{BASE_PATH,ROOT} in the absence of equivalent command line arguments.

It is also not clear what the similarities and differences to the -u option are. Update the intro paragraph (as suggested by Junio, with some minor edits) to make it clear that 'git add' is able to delete and to also cover the -p option. Reword the description of -u to make it clearer (based on Björn Steinbrink's suggestion). Simplify the description of -A by saying "Like -u" and then describe the differences (based on the suggestions by Björn Steinbrink and Junio).

Since status is no longer "commit --dry-run", these formats are inaccessible to people who do want to see a dry-run in a parseable form. This patch makes those formats available to "git commit", implying the "dry-run" option when they are used. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This has two practical uses: 1. Users who want a more dense display of the information. 2. Scripts which want to parse the information and need a stable, easy-to-parse interface. For now, the "--short" format covers both of those uses. However, as time goes on, users of (1) may want additional format tweaks, or for "git status" to change its behavior based on configuration variables. Those wishes will be at odds with (2), which wants to stability for scripts. This patch introduces a separate --porcelain option early to avoid problems later on. Right now the --short and --porcelain outputs are identical. However, as time goes on, we will have the freedom to customize --short for human consumption while keeping --porcelain stable.

There are some tests that expect "git status" to exit with non-zero status when there is something staged. Some tests expect "git status path..." to show the status for a partial commit. For these, replace "git status" with "git commit --dry-run". For the ones that do not attempt a dry-run of a partial commit that check the output from the command, check the output from "git status" as well, as they should be identical.
