2014-10-16mergetools/meld: make usage of `--output` configurable and more robustDavid Aguilar
Older versions of meld listed --output in `meld --help`. Newer versions only mention `meld [OPTIONS...]`. Improve the checks to catch these newer versions. Add a `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` configuration to allow overriding the heuristic.

2014-10-08Documentation: fix misrender of pretty-formats in Asciidoctorbrian m. carlson
Neither the AsciiDoc nor the Asciidoctor documentation specify whether the same number of delimiter characters must be used to end a block as to begin it, although both sets of documentation show exactly matching pairs. AsciiDoc allows mismatches, but AsciiDoctor apparently does not. Adjust the pretty formats documentation to use matching pairs to prevent a misrendering where the remainder of the document was rendered as a listing block.

2014-09-16Documentation/git-rebase.txt: <upstream> must be given to specify <branch>Sergey Organov
Current syntax description makes one wonder if there is any syntactic way to distinguish between <branch> and <upstream> so that one can specify <branch> but not <upstream>, but that is not the case. Make it explicit that these arguments are positional, i.e. the earlier ones cannot be omitted if you want to give later ones.

2014-08-26send-pack: take refspecs over stdinJeff King
Pushing a large number of refs works over most transports, because we implement send-pack as an internal function. However, it can sometimes fail when pushing over http, because we have to spawn "git send-pack --stateless-rpc" to do the heavy lifting, and we pass each refspec on the command line. This can cause us to overflow the OS limits on the size of the command line for a large push. We can solve this by giving send-pack a --stdin option and using it from remote-curl. We already dealt with this on the fetch-pack side in 078b895 (fetch-pack: new --stdin option to read refs from stdin, 2012-04-02). The stdin option (and in particular, its use of packet-lines for stateless-rpc input) is modeled after that solution.

2014-08-12Documentation/git-rebase.txt: -f forces a rebase that would otherwise be a no-opSergey Organov
"Current branch is a descendant of the commit you are rebasing onto" does not necessarily mean "rebase" requires "--force". For a plain vanilla "history flattening" rebase, the rebase can be done without forcing if there is a merge between the tip of the branch being rebased and the commit you are rebasing onto, even if the tip is descendant of the other.

2014-08-05config: teach "git -c" to recognize an empty stringJunio C Hamano
In a config file, you can do: [foo] bar to turn the "foo.bar" boolean flag on, and you can do: [foo] bar= to set "foo.bar" to the empty string. However, git's "-c" parameter treats both: git -c foo.bar and git -c foo.bar= as the boolean flag, and there is no way to set a variable to the empty string. This patch enables the latter form to do that. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The caret (^) is used as a markup symbol in AsciiDoc. Due to the inability of AsciiDoc to parse a line containing an unmatched caret, it omitted the line from the output, resulting in the man page missing the end of a sentence. Escape this caret so that the man page ends up with the complete text. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
