2014-12-17read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variantsJohannes Schindelin
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the repository directory. But this means we need to respect the filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path(). We make this check optional for two reasons: 1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32. In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as the restricted names are rather obscure and almost certainly would never come up in practice. 2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we insert into the index. This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows, we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows, though.

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.

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>
