Denton Liu	64f1f58fe7	checkout: learn to respect checkout.guess The current behavior of git checkout/switch is that --guess is currently enabled by default. However, some users may not wish for this to happen automatically. Instead of forcing users to specify --no-guess manually each time, teach these commands the checkout.guess configuration variable that gives users the option to set a default behavior. Teach the completion script to recognize the new config variable and disable DWIM logic if it is set to false.

Damien Robert	acbfae32a3	doc: --recurse-submodules mostly applies to active submodules The documentation refers to "initialized" or "populated" submodules, to explain which submodules are affected by '--recurse-submodules', but the real terminology here is 'active' submodules. Update the documentation accordingly. Some terminology: - Active is defined in gitsubmodules(7), it only involves the configuration variables 'submodule.active', 'submodule.<name>.active' and 'submodule.<name>.url'. The function submodule.c::is_submodule_active checks that a submodule is active. - Populated means that the submodule's working tree is present (and the gitfile correctly points to the submodule repository), i.e. either the superproject was cloned with ` --recurse-submodules`, or the user ran `git submodule update --init`, or `git submodule init [<path>]` and `git submodule update [<path>]` separately which populated the submodule working tree. This does not involve the 3 configuration variables above. - Initialized (at least in the context of the man pages involved in this patch) means both "populated" and "active" as defined above, i.e. what `git submodule update --init` does. The --recurse-submodules option mostly affects active submodules. An exception is `git fetch` where the option affects populated submodules. As a consequence, in `git pull --recurse-submodules` the fetch affects populated submodules, but the resulting working tree update only affects active submodules. In the documentation of `git-pull`, let's distinguish between the fetching part which affects populated submodules, and the updating of worktrees, which only affects active submodules.

Damien Robert	b3cec57338	doc: document --recurse-submodules for reset and restore Also unify the formulation about --no-recurse-submodules for checkout and switch, which we reuse for restore. And correct the formulation about submodules' HEAD in read-tree, which we reuse in reset.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	4e43b7ff1e	Declare both git-switch and git-restore experimental These two commands are basically redesigned git-checkout. We will not have that many opportunities to redo (because we run out of verbs, and that would also increase maintenance cost). To play it safe, let's declare the two commands experimental in one or two releases. If there is a serious flaw in the UI, we could still fix it. If everything goes well and nobody complains loudly, we can remove the experimental status by reverting this patch.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	d787d311db	checkout: split part of it to new command 'switch' "git checkout" doing too many things is a source of confusion for many users (and it even bites old timers sometimes). To remedy that, the command will be split into two new ones: switch and restore. The good old "git checkout" command is still here and will be until all (or most of users) are sick of it. See the new man page for the final design of switch. The actual implementation though is still pretty much the same as "git checkout" and not completely aligned with the man page. Following patches will adjust their behavior to match the man page. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	6 years ago
