Linus Torvalds	e44794706e	Be much more liberal about the file mode bits. We only really care about the difference between a file being executable or not (by its owner). Everything else we leave for the user umask to decide.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	43f91266a4	Make 'read-tree' do a few more of the trivial merge cases. This cuts down the work for the "real merge" to stuff where people might actually disagree on the algorithm. The trivial cases would seem to be totally independent of any policy.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	d99082e0e3	Make "read-tree" merge the trees it reads by giving them consecutive states. Normally you'd use state 0 for the "merged" state, and start out with state 1 being "origin", state 2 being "first tree" and state 3 being "second tree". Once all the index entries are back in state 0, we have a successful merge and can write the result tree back.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	f5cabd13d8	Encode a few extra flags per index entry. This will allow us to have the same name in different "states" in the index at the same time. Which in turn seems to be a very simple way to merge.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	ccc4feb579	Convert the index file reading/writing to use network byte order. This allows using a git tree over NFS with different byte order, and makes it possible to just copy a fully populated repository and have the end result immediately usable (needing just a refresh to update the stat information).	20 years ago
Petr Baudis	2de381f919	[PATCH] Consolidate the error handling Now there is error() for "library" errors and die() for fatal "application" errors. usage() is now used strictly only for usage errors. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@ucw.cz>	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	4bb04f2190	Rename ".dircache" directory to ".git" I started out calling the tool "dircache". That's clearly moronic.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	9614b8dcf8	Fix stale index.lock file removal using "atexit()". Problem noted by Randy Dunlap.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	121481abf8	Make "update-cache" a bit friendlier to use (and harder to mis-use). It now requires the "--add" flag before you add any new files, and a "--remove" file if you want to mark files for removal. And giving it the "--refresh" flag makes it just update all the files that it already knows about.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	f768846e34	Teach "fsck" and "read-tree" about recursive tree-nodes. This is totally untested, since we can't actually _write_ things that way yet, but I'll get to that next, I hope. That should fix the huge wasted space for kernel-sized tree objects.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	83adac3c57	Make "read-tree" read the tree into the current directory cache. It will no longer update the actual working directory, just the cache. To update the working directory, you need to use "checkout-cache".	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	19b2860cba	Use "-Wall -O2" for the compiler to get more warnings. And fix up the warnings that it pointed out. Let's keep the tree clean from early on. Not that the code is very beautiful anyway ;)	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	e497ea2a9b	Make read-tree actually unpack the whole tree. I needed this to make a "sparse" archive conversion from my old BitKeeper tree data. The scripts to do the conversion are just incredibly ugly, but they seem to validate the notion that you can actually use this silly 'git' thing to save your history in.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	8bc9a0c769	Add copyright notices. The tool interface sucks (especially "committing" information, which is just me doing everything by hand from the command line), but I think this is in theory actually a viable way of describing the world. So copyright it.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	e83c516331	Initial revision of "git", the information manager from hell	20 years ago
