Junio C Hamano	dee48c3c7e	git-merge: document but discourage the historical syntax Historically "git merge" took its command line arguments in a rather strange order. Document the historical syntax, and also document clearly that it is not encouraged in new scripts. There is no reason to deprecate the historical syntax, as the current code can sanely tell which syntax the caller is using, and existing scripts by people do use the historical syntax.

Lars Hjemli	aec7b362ad	git-merge: add support for branch.<name>.mergeoptions This enables per branch configuration of merge options. Currently, the most useful options to specify per branch are --squash, --summary/--no-summary and possibly --strategy, but all options are supported. Note: Options containing whitespace will _not_ be handled correctly. Luckily, the only option which can include whitespace is --message and it doesn't make much sense to give that option a default value.

Jakub Narebski	dbddb714b0	Update git-merge documentation. Add "Configuration" section to describe merge.summary configuration variable (which is mentioned in git-fmt-merge-msg(1) man page, but it is a plumbing command), and merge.verbosity configuration variable (so there is a place to make reference from "Environment Variables" section of git(7) man page) to the git-merge(1) man page. Also describe GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY environment. The configuration variable merge.verbosity and environment variable GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY were introduced in commit `8c3275ab`, which also documented configuration variable but not environment variable.

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.

Alex Riesen	51e7ecf4ec	Add a configuration option to control diffstat after merge The diffstat can be controlled either with command-line options (--summary\|--no-summary) or with merge.diffstat. The default is left as it was: diffstat is active by default. Signed-off-by: Alex Riesen <raa.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	18 years ago
Shawn O. Pearce	d7f078b8b9	Convert update-index references in docs to add. Since `git add` is the approved porcelain for an end-user to invoke when they want to manipulate the index, porcelain documentation should steer the user to this command rather than the pure plumbing update-index.

Shawn O. Pearce	f94741324e	Use GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable instead. Junio rightly pointed out that the --reflog-action parameter was starting to get out of control, as most porcelain code needed to hand it to other porcelain and plumbing alike to ensure the reflog contained the top-level user action and not the lower-level actions it invoked. At Junio's suggestion we are introducing the new set_reflog_action function to all shell scripts, allowing them to declare early on what their default reflog name should be, but this setting only takes effect if the caller has not already set the GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable.

Junio C Hamano	17bcdad3b7	git-merge: make it usable as the first class UI This teaches the oft-requested syntax git merge $commit to implement merging the named commit to the current branch. This hopefully would make "git merge" usable as the first class UI instead of being a mere backend for "git pull". Most notably, $commit above can be any committish, so you can say for example: git merge js/shortlog~2 to merge early part of a topic branch without merging the rest of it. A custom merge message can be given with the new --message=<msg> parameter. The message is prepended in front of the usual "Merge ..." message autogenerated with fmt-merge-message.

Junio C Hamano	3ae854c356	Examples of resetting. Morten Welinder says examples of resetting is really about recovering from botched commit/pulls. I agree that pointers from commands that cause a reset to be needed in the first place would be very helpful. Also reset examples did not mention "pull/merge" cases.

Junio C Hamano	3ace1fe34b	git-merge documentation: conflicting merge leaves higher stages in index This hopefully concludes the latest updates that changes the behaviour of the merge on an unsuccessful automerge. Instead of collapsing the conflicted path in the index to show HEAD, we leave it unmerged, now that diff-files can compare working tree files with higher stages.

Junio C Hamano	ffb1a4bed5	Documentation: Describe merge operation a bit better.

Jon Loeliger	93d69d8691	Refactored merge options into separate merge-options.txt. Refactored fetch options into separate fetch-options.txt. Made git-merge use merge-options. Made git-fetch use fetch-options. Made git-pull use merge-options and fetch-options. Added --help option to git-pull and git-format-patch scripts.

Junio C Hamano	fdd089793c	Documentation: git-fetch/pull updates. We do not accept multiple <refspecs> on one Pull:/Push: line right now (we could lift this tentative workaround for the broken refnames), but we have always accepted multiple such lines, so use that form in the examples and discussion. Also explicitly mention that Octopus is made only with an explicit command line request and never from Pull: lines. Add a couple of cross references.
