Junio C Hamano	8ac069ac0a	Introduce GIT_DIR environment variable. During the mailing list discussion on renaming GIT_ environment variables, people felt that having one environment that lets the user (or Porcelain) specify both SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY (now GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and GIT_INDEX_FILE for the default layout would be handy. This change introduces GIT_DIR environment variable, from which the defaults for GIT_INDEX_FILE and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY are derived. When GIT_DIR is not defined, it defaults to ".git". GIT_INDEX_FILE defaults to "$GIT_DIR/index" and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY defaults to "$GIT_DIR/objects". Special thanks for ideas and discussions go to Petr Baudis and Daniel Barkalow. Bugs are mine ;-) Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	20 years ago
Junio C Hamano	d19938ab60	Rename environment variables. H. Peter Anvin mentioned that using SHA1_whatever as an environment variable name is not nice and we should instead use names starting with "GIT_" prefix to avoid conflicts. Here is what this patch does: * Renames the following environment variables: New name Old Name GIT_AUTHOR_DATE AUTHOR_DATE GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL AUTHOR_EMAIL GIT_AUTHOR_NAME AUTHOR_NAME GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL GIT_COMMITTER_NAME COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY * Introduces a compatibility macro, gitenv(), which does an getenv() and if it fails calls gitenv_bc(), which in turn picks up the value from old name while giving a warning about using an old name. * Changes all users of the environment variable to fetch environment variable with the new name using gitenv(). * Updates the documentation and scripts shipped with Linus GIT distribution. The transition plan is as follows: * We will keep the backward compatibility list used by gitenv() for now, so the current scripts and user environments continue to work as before. The users will get warnings when they have old name but not new name in their environment to the stderr. * The Porcelain layers should start using new names. However, just in case it ends up calling old Plumbing layer implementation, they should also export old names, taking values from the corresponding new names, during the transition period. * After a transition period, we would drop the compatibility support and drop gitenv(). Revert the callers to directly call getenv() but keep using the new names. The last part is probably optional and the transition duration needs to be set to a reasonable value.

Linus Torvalds	4bb04f2190	Rename ".dircache" directory to ".git" I started out calling the tool "dircache". That's clearly moronic.	20 years ago
Linus Torvalds	cfd88e2b7a	Make the default directory permissions more lax. After all, if you want to not allow others to read your stuff, set your "umask" appropriately or make sure the parent directories aren't readable/executable.	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	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
