| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - use "<options>" instead of just "options". - use "[<repository> [<refspec>...]]" to indicate that <repository> and <refspec> are optional, and that <refspec> cannot be specified without specifying <repository>. Note that when called without specifying <repository> (eg. "git fetch -f"), it is accurate to say that the "git fetch [<options>] [<repository> ...]" case takes precedence over "git fetch [<options>] <group>".

For git-rebase--interactive.sh, --no-ff cherry-picks all the commits in the rebased branch, instead of fast-forwarding over any unchanged commits. --no-ff offers an alternative way to deal with reverted merges. Instead of "reverting the revert" you can use "rebase --no-ff" to recreate the branch with entirely new commits (they're new because at the very least the committer time is different). This obviates the need to revert the reversion, as you can re-merge the new topic branch directly. Added an addendum to revert-a-faulty-merge.txt describing the situation and how to use --no-ff to handle it.

Now that Git has been stable for years and does not actually tend to eat your data, it makes significantly less sense. In fact, it sends an entirely wrong message. ‘git gc’ is also unnecessary for the purposes of this document, especially with gc.auto enabled by default. The only other commands in the “Basic Repository” section were ‘git init’ and ‘git clone’. ‘clone’ is already listed in the “Participant” section, so move ‘init’ to the “Standalone” section and get rid of “Basic Repository” entirely.

The <rest> is ignored. The intent, of course, is that this can read the same input that the 'post-rewrite' hook gets.

We deliberately do not document how often the hook will be invoked per rewriting command, but the interface is designed to keep that at "once". This would currently not matter too much, since both rebase and filter-branch are shellscripts and spawn many processes anyway. However, when a fast sequencer in C is implemented, it will be beneficial to only have to run the hook once.

This patch properly documents the -m switch, which has so far been mentioned only as a fairly special diff-tree flag. It also makes the code show full patch entry only for the first parent when --first-parent is used. Thus: git log -p -m --first-parent will show the history from the "main branch perspective", while also including full diff of changes introduced by other merged in branches.
