* Teach git mergetool to use custom commands defined at config timeCharles Bailey2008-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently git mergetool is restricted to a set of commands defined in the script. You can subvert the mergetool.<tool>.path to force git mergetool to use a different command, but if you have a command whose invocation syntax does not match one of the current tools then you would have to write a wrapper script for it. This patch adds two git config variable patterns which allow a more flexible choice of merge tool. If you run git mergetool with -t/--tool or the merge.tool config variable set to an unrecognized tool then git mergetool will query the mergetool.<tool>.cmd config variable. If this variable exists, then git mergetool will treat the specified tool as a custom command and will use a shell eval to run the command with the documented shell variables set. mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode can be used to indicate that the exit code of the custom command can be used to determine the success of the merge.

* Tidy up git mergetool's backup file behaviourCharles Bailey2008-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently a backup pre-merge file with conflict markers is sometimes kept with a .orig extenstion and sometimes removed depending on the particular merge tool used.

When you start from a subdirectory: $ git diff --relative shows only the diff that is inside your current subdirectory, and without $prefix part. People who usually live in subdirectories may like it. There are a few things I should also mention about the change: - This works not just with diff but also works with the log family of commands, but the history pruning is not affected. In other words, if you go to a subdirectory, you can say: $ git log --relative -p but it will show the log message even for commits that do not touch the current directory. You can limit it by giving pathspec yourself: $ git log --relative -p . This originally was not a conscious design choice, but we have a way to affect diff pathspec and pruning pathspec independently. IOW "git log --full-diff -p ." tells it to prune history to commits that affect the current subdirectory but show the changes with full context. I think it makes more sense to leave pruning independent from --relative than the obvious alternative of always pruning with the current subdirectory, which would break the symmetry. - Because this works also with the log family, you could format-patch a single change, limiting the effect to your subdirectory, like so: $ cd gitk-git $ git format-patch -1 --relative 911f1eb But because that is a special purpose usage, this option will never become the default, with or without repository or user preference configuration. The risk of producing a partial patch and sending it out by mistake is too great if we did so. - This is inherently incompatible with --no-index, which is a bolted-on hack that does not have much to do with git itself. I didn't bother checking and erroring out on the combined use of the options, but probably I should. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Because of that, the code-path used is often not the most optimal one. This patch adds a routine to detect the number of online CPU's at runtime (online_cpus()). When pack.threads (or --threads=) is given a value of 0, the number of threads is set to the number of online CPU's. This feature is also documented. As per Nicolas Pitre's recommendations, the default is still to run pack-objects single-threaded unless explicitly activated, either by configuration or by command line parameter. The routine online_cpus() is a rework of "numcpus.c", written by one Philip Willoughby <pgw99@doc.ic.ac.uk>. numcpus.c is in the public domain and can presently be downloaded from http://csgsoft.doc.ic.ac.uk/numcpus/ Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Brandon Casey <casey@nrlssc.navy.mil> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

In such cases it can be difficult to determine if the output of `git describe $commit` is a real tag name or a tag+abbreviated commit. A common idiom is to run git-describe twice: if test $(git describe $commit) = $(git describe --abbrev=0 $commit) ... but this is a huge waste of time if the caller is just going to pick a different method to describe $commit or abort because it is not exactly an annotated tag. Setting the maximum number of candidates to 0 allows the caller to ask for only a tag that directly points at the supplied commit, or to have git-describe abort if no such item exists.
