Brandon Casey	d6cf61bfd4	close_lock_file(): new function in the lockfile API The lockfile API is a handy way to obtain a file that is cleaned up if you die(). But sometimes you would need this sequence to work: 1. hold_lock_file_for_update() to get a file descriptor for writing; 2. write the contents out, without being able to decide if the results should be committed or rolled back; 3. do something else that makes the decision --- and this "something else" needs the lockfile not to have an open file descriptor for writing (e.g. Windows do not want a open file to be renamed); 4. call commit_lock_file() or rollback_lock_file() as appropriately. This adds close_lock_file() you can call between step 2 and 3 in the above sequence. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Junio C Hamano	0c0478cac8	Document lockfile API We have nice set of placeholders, but nobody stepped in to fill the gap in the API documentation, so I am doing it myself. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago

Junio C Hamano	530e741c72	Start preparing the API documents. Most of them are still stubs, but the procedure to build the HTML documentation, maintaining the index and installing the end product are there. I placed names of people who are likely to know the most about the topic in the stub files, so that volunteers will know whom to ask questions as needed.

Junio C Hamano	a6080a0a44	War on whitespace This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

Johannes Schindelin	1b89ef1731	Provide some technical documentation for shallow clones There has not been any work on the shallow stuff lately, so it is hard to find out what it does, and how. This document describes the ideas as well as the current problems, and can serve as a starting point for shallow people.

Junio C Hamano	e1bb1d31ea	racy-git: documentation updates. We've removed the workaround for runtime penalty that did not exist in practice some time ago, but the technical paper that proposed that change still said "we probably should do so".
