| * | branch: teach --edit-description optionJunio C Hamano2011-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using branch.$name.description as the configuration key, give users a place to write about what the purpose of the branch is and things like that, so that various subsystems, e.g. "push -s", "request-pull", and "format-patch --cover-letter", can later be taught to use this information. The "-m" option similar to "commit/tag" is deliberately omitted, as the whole point of branch description is about giving descriptive information (the name of the branch itself is a better place for information that fits on a single-line).

Introduce a "pull.rebase" option to globally configure "git pull" to mean "git pull --rebase" for any branch. This option will be considered at a lower priority than branch.<name>.rebase, i.e. we could set pull.rebase=true and branch.<name>.rebase=false and the latter configuration option would win.

Introduce a "git cherry-pick --abort" command that rolls back the entire cherry-pick sequence and places the repository back on solid ground. Just like "git merge --abort", this internally uses "git reset --merge", so local changes not involved in the conflict resolution are preserved.

Change it now, while we still have the time. The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit. Mnemonic: this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using --- we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state. The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact. We might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though. Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit) instead of --reset. While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions of these operations in "-h" output. Before: --reset forget the current operation --continue continue the current operation After: --quit end revert or cherry-pick sequence --continue resume revert or cherry-pick sequence Noticed-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
