* Some doc typo fixesFrancis Daly2006-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | All should be clear enough, except perhaps committish / commitish. I just kept the more-used one within the current docs. [jc: with rephrasing of check-ref-format description later discussed on the list] Signed-off-by: Francis Daly <francis@daoine.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* git-format-patch: add --output-directory long option againJunio C Hamano2006-06-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Additionally notices and complains to an -o option without directory or a duplicated -o option, -o and --stdout given together. Also delays the creation of directory until all arguments are parsed, so that the command does not leave an empty directory behind when it exits after seeing an unrelated invalid option. [jc: originally from Dennis Stosberg but with minor fixes, and documentation updates from Dennis.] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| * | Enable ref log creation in git checkout -b.Shawn Pearce2006-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch git checkout -b to use git-update-ref rather than echo and a shell I/O redirection. This is more in line with typical GIT commands and allows -b to be logged according to the normal ref logging rules. Added -l option to allow users to create the ref log at the same time as creating a branch. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| * | Change order of -m option to update-ref.Shawn Pearce2006-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The actual position doesn't matter but most people prefer to see options appear before the arguments. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
| * | Change 'master@noon' syntax to 'master@{noon}'.Shawn Pearce2006-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Its ambiguous to parse "master@2006-05-17 18:30:foo" when foo is meant as a file name and ":30" is meant as 30 minutes past 6 pm. Therefore all date specifications in a sha1 expression must now appear within brackets and the ':' splitter used for the path name in a sha1 expression ignores ':' appearing within brackets.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extended sha1 expressions may now include date specifications which indicate a point in time within the local repository's history. If the ref indicated to the left of '@' has a log in $GIT_DIR/logs/<ref> then the value of the ref at the time indicated by the specification is obtained from the ref's log. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If config parameter core.logAllRefUpdates is true or the log file already exists then append a line to ".git/logs/refs/<ref>" whenever git-update-ref <ref> is executed. Each log line contains the following information: oldsha1 <SP> newsha1 <SP> committer <LF> where committer is the current user, date, time and timezone in the standard GIT ident format. If the caller is unable to append to the log file then git-update-ref will fail without updating <ref>. An optional message may be included in the log line with the -m flag. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

| * | Convert update-ref to use ref_lock API.Shawn Pearce2006-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This conversion also adds the '-m' switch to update-ref allowing the caller to record why the ref is changing. At present this is merely copied down into the ref_lock API. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Expand the history-browsing section of the tutorial a bit, in part to address Junio's suggestion that we mention "git grep" and Linus's complaint that people are missing the flexibility of the commandline interfaces for selecting commits.

Since git and quilt complement each other it makes sense to make it easy to go back and forth between the two. If a patch is encountered that it cannot derive the author from the user is asked.
