2005-11-13Rename lost+found to lost-found.Junio C Hamano
Because we use "lost-found" as the directory name to hold dangling object names, it is confusing to call the command git-lost+found, although it makes sense and is even cute ;-). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11git-lost+foundJunio C Hamano
This command helps you resurrect accidentally lost tags and commits. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Change 'cache' to 'index' in the docsLukas_Sandström
This patch makes the documentation refer to the index as index instead of cache, but some references still remain. (e.g. git-update-index.txt) Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-01Remove 'Previously this command was known as ...' messages.Jon Loeliger
For a 1.0 release, there is no need to maintain the historical "Previously this command was known as..." information on the doc splash page. It is noise; command names should stand on their own now. Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-10-12Add git-index-pack utilitySergey Vlasov
git-index-pack builds a pack index file for an existing packed archive. With this utility a packed archive which was transferred without the corresponding pack index can be added to objects/pack/ without repacking.

2005-09-22Retire diff-helper.Junio C Hamano
The textual diff generation with built-in '-p' in diff-* brothers has proven to be useful enough that git-diff-helper outlived its usefulness. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-22Retire rev-tree.Junio C Hamano
Some old scripts might still use git-rev-tree, but it really is clearly inferior in every way to git-rev-list that such scripts should be fixed anyway. Fixing them should be pretty easy. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-22Retire git-export.Junio C Hamano
git-export was done as a concept example on how easy it is to export the git data to something else. It's much less powerful than any number of trivial one-liner scripts now, and real exporters would not ever use git-export. It's obviously much less powerful than "git-whatchanged", or just about any combination of git-rev-list + git-diff-tree. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-20[PATCH] Documentation: Update all files to use the new gitlink: macroSergey Vlasov
The replacement was performed automatically by these commands: perl -pi -e 's/link:(git.+)\.html\[\1\]/gitlink:$1\[1\]/g' \ README Documentation/*.txt perl -pi -e 's/link:git\.html\[git\]/gitlink:git\[7\]/g' \ README Documentation/*.txt Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov <vsu@altlinux.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-15Retire info/rev-cacheJunio C Hamano
It was one of those things that were well intentioned but did not turn out to be useful in practice. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-12Document git-grep and link it from the main git(7) page.Junio C Hamano

Fill in more missing documentation. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-07Big tool rename.Junio C Hamano
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-08-29Remove git-apply-patch-script.Junio C Hamano
Now the rebase is rewritten to use git cherry-pick, there is no user for that ancient script. I've checked Cogito and StGIT to make sure they do not use it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-26Update the main documentation index.Junio C Hamano
Gitzilla updated bunch of undocumented command pages, so move the entries in the main documentation index around to put them in proper category. Ordering within category will be fixed later. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-08-23Add placeholders for missing documents.Junio C Hamano
The text does not say anything interesting, but at least the author list should reflect something close to reality. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-22Clean-up output from "git show-branch" and document it.Junio C Hamano
When showing only one branch a lot of default output becomes redundant, so clean it up a bit, and document what is shown. Retire the earlier implementation "git-show-branches-script". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-08-16[PATCH] Add a bit more links to the commands to the main git(7) page.Junio C Hamano
There are many programs like git-add not described at all, and the organization of the list of commands may be suboptimal, but we have to start somewhere. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-15[PATCH] Add documentation for git repack and git-prune-packed.Junio C Hamano
[jc: the patch forgot to update the main git.txt documentation, making all these new documentation practically no-op, so I added a minimum attempt linking them from there.] Signed-off-by: Ryan Anderson <ryan@michonline.com>

2005-08-15Add git-show-branches-scriptJunio C Hamano
Often I find myself wanting to do quick branches check when I am not in the windowing environment and cannot run gitk. This stupid script shows commits leading to the heads of interesting branches with indication which ones belong to which branches, so that fork point is somewhat discernible without using gitk. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-08-14Documentation updates.Junio C Hamano
Linus brought up that documentation for many commands have incorrect attribution. I started counting lines again, but ended up adding a handful of missing manual pages. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-08-03Retire check-files.Junio C Hamano
The king penguin said: It has no point any more, all the tools check the file status on their own, and yes, the thing should probably be removed. and the faithful servant makes it so. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-07-15[PATCH] Add git-var a tool for reading interesting git variables.Eric W. Biederman
Sharing code between shell scripts and C is a challenge. The program git-var allows us to have a set of named values that a shell script can interrogate and a normal C program can simply call the functions that compute them. Allowing sharing when computing plain test values. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-07-14[PATCH] Documentation: push-pull commands into a separate category.Junio C Hamano
This splits push-pull related commands into a separate category. I think a bigger overhaul of the main index is needed, but have not got around to it. Help is welcome. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-07-13[PATCH] clone-pack and clone-script: documentation and add a missing parameter.Junio C Hamano
While adding the documentation for these two commands, I noticed that the name of the program on the other end (git-upload-pack) is already almost configurable but git-clone-pack lacked command line parameter parsing to actually use anything but default, so I introduced --exec= like other remote commands while I was at it.
