Johannes Schindelin	dddbad728c	timestamp_t: a new data type for timestamps Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit versions). So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type. By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all timestamps' data type in one go. As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`, we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Jacob Keller	4a68748893	doc: add documentation for OPT_STRING_LIST Commit `c8ba163916` ("parse-options: add OPT_STRING_LIST helper", 2011-06-09) added the OPT_STRING_LIST as a way to accumulate a repeated list of strings. However, this was not documented in the api-parse-options documentation. Add documentation now so that future developers may learn of its existence.

Pranit Bauva	e0070e8bd5	parse-options.c: make OPTION_COUNTUP respect "unspecified" values OPT_COUNTUP() merely increments the counter upon --option, and resets it to 0 upon --no-option, which means that there is no "unspecified" value with which a client can initialize the counter to determine whether or not --[no]-option was seen at all. Make OPT_COUNTUP() treat any negative number as an "unspecified" value to address this shortcoming. In particular, if a client initializes the counter to -1, then if it is still -1 after parse_options(), then neither --option nor --no-option was seen; if it is 0, then --no-option was seen last, and if it is 1 or greater, than --option was seen last. This change does not affect the behavior of existing clients because they all use the initial value of 0 (or more). Note that builtin/clean.c initializes the variable used with OPT__FORCE (which uses OPT_COUNTUP()) to a negative value, but it is set to either 0 or 1 by reading the configuration before the code calls parse_options(), i.e. as far as parse_options() is concerned, the initial value of the variable is not negative. To test this behavior, in test-parse-options.c, "verbose" is set to "unspecified" while quiet is set to 0 which will test the new behavior with all sets of values.

Charles Bailey	2a514ed805	parse-options: move unsigned long option parsing out of pack-objects.c The unsigned long option parsing (including 'k'/'m'/'g' suffix parsing) is more widely applicable. Add support for OPT_MAGNITUDE to parse-options.h and change pack-objects.c use this support. The error behavior on parse errors follows that of OPT_INTEGER. The name of the option that failed to parse is reported with a brief message describing the expect format for the option argument and then the full usage message for the command invoked. This differs from the previous behavior for OPT_ULONG used in pack-objects for --max-pack-size and --window-memory which used to display the value supplied in the error message and did not display the full usage message.

Paul Tan	ffad85c599	parse-options-cb: implement parse_opt_passthru_argv() Certain git commands, such as git-pull, are simply wrappers around other git commands like git-fetch, git-merge and git-rebase. As such, these wrapper commands will typically need to "pass through" command-line options of the commands they wrap. Implement the parse_opt_passthru_argv() parse-options callback, which will reconstruct all the provided command-line options into an argv_array, such that it can be passed to another git command. This is useful for passing command-line options that can be specified multiple times.

Jeff King	6cf378f0cb	docs: stop using asciidoc no-inline-literal In asciidoc 7, backticks like `foo` produced a typographic effect, but did not otherwise affect the syntax. In asciidoc 8, backticks introduce an "inline literal" inside which markup is not interpreted. To keep compatibility with existing documents, asciidoc 8 has a "no-inline-literal" attribute to keep the old behavior. We enabled this so that the documentation could be built on either version. It has been several years now, and asciidoc 7 is no longer in wide use. We can now decide whether or not we want inline literals on their own merits, which are: 1. The source is much easier to read when the literal contains punctuation. You can use `master~1` instead of `master{tilde}1`. 2. They are less error-prone. Because of point (1), we tend to make mistakes and forget the extra layer of quoting. This patch removes the no-inline-literal attribute from the Makefile and converts every use of backticks in the documentation to an inline literal (they must be cleaned up, or the example above would literally show "{tilde}" in the output). Problematic sites were found by grepping for '`.[{\\]' and examined and fixed manually. The results were then verified by comparing the output of "html2text" on the set of generated html pages. Doing so revealed that in addition to making the source more readable, this patch fixes several formatting bugs: - HTML rendering used the ellipsis character instead of literal "..." in code examples (like "git log A...B") - some code examples used the right-arrow character instead of '->' because they failed to quote - api-config.txt did not quote tilde, and the resulting HTML contained a bogus snippet like: <tt><sub></tt> foo <tt></sub>bar</tt> which caused some parsers to choke and omit whole sections of the page. - git-commit.txt confused ``foo`` (backticks inside a literal) with ``foo'' (matched double-quotes) - mentions of `A U Thor <author@example.com>` used to erroneously auto-generate a mailto footnote for author@example.com - the description of --word-diff=plain incorrectly showed the output as "[-removed-] and {added}", not "{+added+}". - using "prime" notation like: commit `C` and its replacement `C'` confused asciidoc into thinking that everything between the first backtick and the final apostrophe were meant to be inside matched quotes - asciidoc got confused by the escaping of some of our asterisks. In particular, `credential.\` and `credential.<url>.\*` properly escaped the asterisk in the first case, but literally passed through the backslash in the second case.

René Scharfe	0f1930c587	parse-options: allow positivation of options starting, with no- Long options can be negated by adding no- right after the leading two dashes. This is useful e.g. to override options set by aliases. For options that are defined to start with no- already, this looks a bit funny. Allow such options to also be negated by removing the prefix. The following thirteen options are affected: apply --no-add bisect--helper --no-checkout checkout-index --no-create clone --no-checkout --no-hardlinks commit --no-verify --no-post-rewrite format-patch --no-binary hash-object --no-filters read-tree --no-sparse-checkout revert --no-commit show-branch --no-name update-ref --no-deref The following five are NOT affected because they are defined with PARSE_OPT_NONEG or the non-negated version is defined as well: branch --no-merged format-patch --no-stat --no-numbered update-index --no-assume-unchanged --no-skip-worktree Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	13 years ago

Junio C Hamano	b04ba2bb42	parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN It is natural to expect that an option defined with OPT_BOOLEAN() could be used in this way: int option = -1; /* unspecified */ struct option options[] = { OPT_BOOLEAN(0, "option", &option, "set option"), OPT_END() }; parse_options(ac, av, prefix, options, usage, 0); if (option < 0) ... do the default thing ... else if (!option) ... --no-option was given ... else ... --option was given ... to easily tell three cases apart: - There is no mention of the `--option` on the command line; - The variable is positively set with `--option`; or - The variable is explicitly negated with `--no-option`. Unfortunately, this is not the case. OPT_BOOLEAN() increments the variable every time `--option` is given, and resets it to zero when `--no-option` is given. As a first step to remedy this, introduce a true boolean OPT_BOOL(), and rename OPT_BOOLEAN() to OPT_COUNTUP(). To help transitioning, OPT_BOOLEAN and OPTION_BOOLEAN are defined as deprecated synonyms to OPT_COUNTUP and OPTION_COUNTUP respectively. This is what `db7244b` (parse-options new features., 2007-11-07) from four years ago started by marking OPTION_BOOLEAN as "INCR would have been a better name". Some existing users do depend on the count-up semantics; for example, users of OPT__VERBOSE() could use it to raise the verbosity level with repeated use of `-v` on the command line, but they probably should be rewritten to use OPT__VERBOSITY() instead these days. I suspect that some users of OPT__FORCE() may also use it to implement different level of forcibleness but I didn't check. On top of this patch, here are the remaining clean-up tasks that other people can help: - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT_BOOLEAN"; trace all uses of the value that is set to the underlying variable, and if it can proven that the variable is only used as a boolean, replace it with OPT_BOOL(). If the caller does depend on the count-up semantics, replace it with OPT_COUNTUP() instead. - Same for OPTION_BOOLEAN; replace it with OPTION_SET_INT and arrange to set 1 to the variable for a true boolean, and otherwise replace it with OPTION_COUNTUP. - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT__VERBOSE -e OPT__QUIET" and see if they can be replaced with OPT__VERBOSITY(). I'll follow this message up with a separate patch as an example. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	14 years ago

Mark Lodato	73e9da0196	Add an optional argument for --color options Make git-branch, git-show-branch, git-grep, and all the diff-based programs accept an optional argument <when> for --color. The argument is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto". If no argument is given, "always" is used; --no-color is an alias for --color=never. This makes the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls' and `grep', and with the git-config color options. Note that, without an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before. To implement this, two internal changes were made: 1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL, in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never", or "auto". 2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb() to the option parsing library. The callback uses git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency of parse-options.c.

Stephen Boyd	df217ed643	parse-opts: add OPT_FILENAME and transition builtins Commit `dbd0f5c` (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd, 2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix. OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue. OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to represent filename options within the parse options API. This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to parse_options() (or parse_options_start()). Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer extern.
