Jeff King	48bb914ed6	doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pages The point of these sections is generally to: 1. Give credit where it is due. 2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or file bug reports. But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless. So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section to give credit to the major contributors and point to shortlog and blame for more information. Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can follow that to the main git manpage.	14 years ago

Jonathan Nieder	fc621bd08a	Documentation: remove backslash before ~ in fast-import manual Use the {tilde} entity to get a literal tilde without fuss.

Elijah Newren	7f40ab0916	fast-export: Add a --full-tree option This option adds symmetry with fast-import, enabling it to also work with complete trees instead of just incremental changes. It works by issuing a 'deleteall' directive with each commit and then listing the full set of files that make up that commit, rather than just showing the list of files that have changed since the (first) parent commit. Note that this functionality is automatically turned on when using --import-marks together with path limiting in order to avoid dropping important but unchanged files. This functionality is desired when using hand-written filters along with 'fast-export \| some-filter \| fast-import' as it can be easier to write <some-filter> in terms of complete trees than incremental changes. We could avoid the need to add this option by simply always turning it on. While the end result would be identical, it would slow things down slightly by printing many more filenames per commit which goes somewhat against the 'fast' in 'fast-export'.

Thomas Rast	0b444cdb19	Documentation: spell 'git cmd' without dash throughout The documentation was quite inconsistent when spelling 'git cmd' if it only refers to the program, not to some specific invocation syntax: both 'git-cmd' and 'git cmd' spellings exist. The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent in `647ac70` (git-svn.txt: stop using dash-form of commands., 2009-07-07) to actively eliminate the dashed variants. Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell, git-cvsserver, git-upload-pack, git-receive-pack, and git-upload-archive are concerned, because those really live in the $PATH.	15 years ago
Geoffrey Irving	79559f27be	git fast-export: add --no-data option When using git fast-export and git fast-import to rewrite the history of a repository with large binary files, almost all of the time is spent dealing with blobs. This is extremely inefficient if all we want to do is rewrite the commits and tree structure. --no-data skips the output of blobs and writes SHA-1s instead of marks, which provides a massive speedup.

Elijah Newren	2d8ad46919	fast-export: Add a --tag-of-filtered-object option for newly dangling tags When providing a list of paths to limit what is exported, the object that a tag points to can be filtered out entirely. This new switch allows the user to specify what should happen to the tag in such a case. The default action, 'abort' will exit with an error message. With 'drop', the tag will simply be omitted from the output. With 'rewrite', if the object tagged was a commit, the tag will be modified to tag an alternate commit. The alternate commit is determined by treating the original commit as the "parent" of the tag and then using the parent rewriting algorithm of the revision traversal machinery (related to the "--parents" option of "git rev-list") Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago
Johannes Schindelin	4e46a8d62c	fast-export: deal with tag objects that do not have a tagger When no tagger was found (old Git produced tags like this), no "tagger" line is printed (but this is incompatible with the current git fast-import). Alternatively, you can pass the option --fake-missing-tagger, forcing fast-export to fake a tagger Unspecified Tagger <no-tagger> with a tag date of the beginning of (Unix) time in the case of a missing tagger, so that fast-import is still able to import the result.

Alexander Gavrilov	ae7c5dcef9	Support copy and rename detection in fast-export. Although it does not matter for Git itself, tools that export to systems that explicitly track copies and renames can benefit from such information. This patch makes fast-export output correct action logs when -M or -C are enabled.

Jonathan Nieder	ba020ef5eb	manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font) The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics, as is usual for command names in manpages. Using doit () { perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.])\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }' } for i in git.txt config.txt diff.txt blame.txt fetch.txt i18n.txt \ merge.txt pretty.txt pull.txt rev.txt urls.txt do doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i" done git diff .

Jonathan Nieder	483bc4f045	Documentation formatting and cleanup Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

Jonathan Nieder	b1889c36d8	Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git " Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Pieter de Bie	df6a7ff7ac	builtin-fast-export: Add importing and exporting of revision marks This adds the --import-marks and --export-marks to fast-export. These import and export the marks used to for all revisions exported in a similar fashion to what fast-import does. The format is the same as fast-import, so you can create a bidirectional importer / exporter by using the same marks file on both sides.

Johannes Schindelin	f2dc849e9c	Add 'git fast-export', the sister of 'git fast-import' This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that fast-import understands. For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits. Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default), ignore, warn and strip. The latter just turns the tags into unsigned ones. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
