Srinidhi Kaushik	3b5bf96573	t, doc: update tests, reference for "--force-if-includes" Update test cases for the new option, and document its usage and update related references. Update test cases for the new option, and document its usage and update related references. - t/t5533-push-cas.sh: Update test cases for "compare-and-swap" when used along with "--force-if-includes" helps mitigate overwrites when remote refs are updated in the background; allows forced updates when changes from remote are integrated locally. - Documentation: Add reference for the new option, configuration setting ("push.useForceIfIncludes") and advise messages.

Heba Waly	887a0fd573	add: change advice config variables used by the add API advice.addNothing config variable is used to control the visibility of two advice messages in the add library. This config variable is replaced by two new variables, whose names are more clear and relevant to the two cases. Also add the two new variables to the documentation.

Martin Ågren	3901d2c6bd	config/advice.txt: fix description list separator The whole submoduleAlternateErrorStrategyDie item is interpreted as being part of the supporting content of the preceding item. This is because we don't give a double-colon "::" for the separator, but just a single colon, ":". Let's fix that. There are a few other matches for [^:]:\s*$ in Documentation/config, but I didn't spot any similar bugs among them.

Jonathan Tan	4f3e57ef13	submodule--helper: advise on fatal alternate error When recursively cloning a superproject with some shallow modules defined in its .gitmodules, then recloning with "--reference=<path>", an error occurs. For example: git clone --recurse-submodules --branch=master -j8 \ https://android.googlesource.com/platform/superproject \ master git clone --recurse-submodules --branch=master -j8 \ https://android.googlesource.com/platform/superproject \ --reference master master2 fails with: fatal: submodule '<snip>' cannot add alternate: reference repository '<snip>' is shallow When a alternate computed from the superproject's alternate cannot be added, whether in this case or another, advise about configuring the "submodule.alternateErrorStrategy" configuration option and using "--reference-if-able" instead of "--reference" when cloning.

Rohit Ashiwal	6a1f9046a4	sequencer: add advice for revert In the case of merge conflicts, while performing a revert, we are currently advised to use `git cherry-pick --<sequencer-options>`. Introduce a separate advice message for `git revert`. Also change the signature of `create_seq_dir` to handle which advice to display selectively.

Derrick Stolee	377444b440	fetch: warn about forced updates in branch listing The --[no-]show-forced-updates option in 'git fetch' can be confusing for some users, especially if it is enabled via config setting and not by argument. Add advice to warn the user that the (forced update) messages were not listed. Additionally, warn users when the forced update check takes longer than ten seconds, and recommend that they disable the check. These messages can be disabled by the advice.fetchShowForcedUpdates config setting. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	6 years ago
Jeff Hostetler	0a53561a62	status: warn when a/b calculation takes too long The ahead/behind calculation in 'git status' can be slow in some cases. Users may not realize that there are ways to avoid this computation, especially if they are not using the information. Add a warning that appears if this calculation takes more than two seconds. The warning can be disabled through the new config setting advice.statusAheadBehind.

Denton Liu	eea9c1e78f	tag: advise on nested tags Robert Dailey reported confusion on the mailing list about a nested tag which was most likely created by mistake. Jeff King noted that this isn't a very common case and creating a tag-to-a-tag can be a user-error. Suggest that it may be a mistake with an advice message when creating such a tag. Those who do want to create a tag that point at another tag regularly can turn it off with the usual advice mechanism.

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
Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason	dd8dd300c6	push: add an advice on unqualified <dst> push Add an advice to the recently improved error message added in `f8aae12034` ("push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM", 2008-04-23). Now with advice.pushUnqualifiedRefName=true (on by default) we show a hint about how to proceed: $ ./git-push avar v2.19.0^{commit}:newbranch -n error: The destination you provided is not a full refname (i.e., starting with "refs/"). We tried to guess what you meant by: - Looking for a ref that matches 'newbranch' on the remote side. - Checking if the <src> being pushed ('v2.19.0^{commit}') is a ref in "refs/{heads,tags}/". If so we add a corresponding refs/{heads,tags}/ prefix on the remote side. Neither worked, so we gave up. You must fully qualify the ref. hint: The <src> part of the refspec is a commit object. hint: Did you mean to create a new branch by pushing to hint: 'v2.19.0^{commit}:refs/heads/newbranch'? error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:avar/git.git' When trying to push a tag, tree or a blob we suggest that perhaps the user meant to push them to refs/tags/ instead. The if/else duplication for all of OBJ_{COMMIT,TAG,TREE,BLOB} is unfortunate, but is required to correctly mark the messages for translation.
