2013-03-01Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatalThomas Rast
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore, 2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a leading '!'. The docs, however, always said The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5]. By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation. So 82dce99 correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should be disallowed. However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!' are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with such lines in them. After 82dce99 the unescaped version was disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes. It therefore becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories. Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal error into a warning.

In commit 9db31bdf (submodule: Add --force option for git submodule update, 2011-04-01) we added the option to the implementation's usage synopsis but forgot to add it to the synopsis in the command documentation. Add the option to the synopsis in the same location it is reported in usage and re-wrap the options to avoid long lines.

2013-02-20Makefile: avoid infinite loop on configure.ac changeJeff King
If you are using autoconf and change the configure.ac, the Makefile will notice that config.status is older than configure.ac, and will attempt to rebuild and re-run the configure script to pick up your changes. The first step in doing so is to run "make configure". Unfortunately, this tries to include config.mak.autogen, which depends on config.status, which depends on configure.ac; so we must rebuild config.status. Which leads to us running "make configure", and so on. It's easy to demonstrate with: make configure ./configure touch configure.ac make We can break this cycle by not re-invoking make to build "configure", and instead just putting its rules inline into our config.status rebuild procedure. We can avoid a copy by factoring the rules into a make variable. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-02-19user-manual: Flesh out uncommitted changes and submodule updatesW. Trevor King
If you try and update a submodule with a dirty working directory, you get an error message like: $ git submodule update error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout: ... Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can switch branches. Aborting ... Mention this in the submodule notes. The previous phrase was short enough that I originally thought it might have been referring to the reflog note (obviously, uncommitted changes will not show up in the reflog either ;).

2013-02-19user-manual: Reorganize the reroll sections, adding 'git rebase -i'W. Trevor King
I think this interface is often more convenient than extended cherry picking or using 'git format-patch'. In fact, I removed the cherry-pick section entirely. The entry-level suggestions for rerolling are now: 1. git commit --amend 2. git format-patch origin git reset --hard origin ...edit and reorder patches... git am *.patch 3. git rebase -i origin Signed-off-by: W.

2013-02-11parse-options: report uncorrupted multi-byte optionsErik Faye-Lund
Because our command-line parser considers only one byte at the time for short-options, we incorrectly report only the first byte when multi-byte input was provided. This makes user-errors slightly awkward to diagnose for instance under UTF-8 locale and non-English keyboard layouts. Report the whole argument-string when a non-ASCII short-option is detected.

2013-02-11Add utf8_fprintf helper that returns correct number of columnsJiang Xin
Since command usages can be translated, they may include utf-8 encoded strings, and the output in console may not align well any more. This is because strlen() is different from strwidth() on utf-8 strings. A wrapper utf8_fprintf() can help to return the correct number of columns required.
