* clone: support cloning full bundlesSanti Béjar2008-02-29
| | | | | | | The "humanish" part of a bundle is made removing the ".bundle" suffix. Signed-off-by: Santi Béjar <sbejar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* git-clone.sh: properly configure remote even if remote's head is danglingGerrit Pape2008-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When cloning a remote repository which's HEAD refers to a nonexistent ref, git-clone cloned all existing refs, but failed to write the configuration for 'remote'. Now it detects the dangling remote HEAD, refuses to checkout any local branch since HEAD refers to nowhere, but properly writes the configuration for 'remote', so that subsequent 'git fetch's don't fail.

* git-clone: aggressively optimize local clone behaviour.Junio C Hamano2007-08-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the behaviour of cloning from a repository on the local machine, by defaulting to "-l" (use hardlinks to share files under .git/objects) and making "-l" a no-op. A new option, --no-hardlinks, is also added to cause file-level copy of files under .git/objects while still avoiding the normal "pack to pipe, then receive and index pack" network transfer overhead. The old behaviour of local cloning without -l nor -s is availble by specifying the source repository with the newly introduced file:///path/to/repo.git/ syntax (i.e. "same as network" cloning). * With --no-hardlinks (i.e. have all .git/objects/ copied via cpio) would not catch the source repository corruption, and also risks corrupted recipient repository if an alpha-particle hits memory cell while indexing and resolving deltas. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up. * same-as-network is expensive, but it would catch the breakage of the source repository. It still risks corrupted recipient repository due to hardware failure. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up. * The new default on the same filesystem, as long as the source repository is healthy, it is very likely that the recipient would be, too. Also it is very cheap. You do not get any back-up benefit, though. None of the method is resilient against the source repository corruption, so let's discount that from the comparison. Then the difference with and without --no-hardlinks matters primarily if you value the back-up benefit or not. If you want to use the cloned repository as a back-up, then it is cheaper to do a clone with --no-hardlinks and two git-fsck (source before clone, recipient after clone) than same-as-network clone, especially as you are likely to do a git-fsck on the recipient if you are so paranoid anyway. Which leads me to believe that being able to use file:/// is probably a good idea, if only for testability, but probably of little practical value. We default to hardlinked clone for everyday use, and paranoids can use --no-hardlinks as a way to make a back-up. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Fix clone to setup the origin if its name ends with .gitAlex Riesen2007-06-06
The problem is visible when cloning a local repo. The cloned repository will have the origin url setup incorrectly: the origin name will be copied verbatim in origin url of the cloned repository. Normally, the name is to be expanded into absolute path. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
