Junio C Hamano	b6f5da1e0f	Teach git-remote add to fetch and track This adds three options to 'git-remote add'. * -f (or --fetch) option tells it to also run the initial "git fetch" using the newly created remote shorthand. * -t (or --track) option tells it not to use the default wildcard to track all branches. * -m (or --master) option tells it to make the remote/$name/HEAD point at a remote tracking branch other than master. For example, with this I can say: $ git remote add -f -t master -t quick-start -m master \ jbf-um git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/git.git/ to (1) create remote.jbf-um.url; (2) track master and quick-start branches (and no other); the two -t options create these two lines: fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/jbf-um/master fetch = +refs/heads/quick-start:refs/remotes/jbf-um/quick-start (3) set up remotes/jbf-um/HEAD to point at jbf-um/master so that later I can say "git log jbf-um" Or I could do $ git remote add -t 'ap/' andy /home/andy/git.git to make Andy's topic branches kept track of under refs/remotes/andy/ap/. Other possible improvements I considered but haven't implemented (hint, hint) are: reject wildcard letters other than a trailing '' to the -t parameter; make -m optional and when the first -t parameter does not have the trailing '' default to that value (so the above example does not need to say "-m master"); if -m is not given, and -t parameter ends with '*' (i.e. the above defaulting did not tell us where to point HEAD at), and if we did the fetch with -f, check if 'master' was fetched and make HEAD point at it.

Shawn O. Pearce	859607dfe0	Teach 'git remote' how to cleanup stale tracking branches. Since it can be annoying to manually cleanup 40 tracking branches which were removed by the remote system, 'git remote prune <n>' can now be used to delete any tracking branches under <n> which are no longer available on the remote system.

Shawn O. Pearce	7a8c9ec1a9	Pull out remote listing functions in git-remote. I want to reuse the stale branch detection to implement a new 'git remote prune' subcommand. Easiest way to do that is to use the same logic that 'git remote show' uses to determine the stale tracking branches, then delete those. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Junio C Hamano	e194cd1e0e	git-remote It might be handy to have a single command that helps you manage your configuration that relates to downloading from remote repositories. This currently does only about 20% of what I want it to do. $ git remote shows the list of 'remotes' you have defined somewhere, and $ git remote origin shows the details about the named remote (in this case "origin"). How the branches are tracked, if you have a tracking branch that is stale, etc. $ git add another git://git.kernel.org/pub/... defines the default remote.another.url and remote.another.fetch entries just like a clone does; you can say "git fetch another" afterwards. For it to be useful, I think it should be enhanced to: - check overlaps of tracking branches and warn; - offer to remove stale tracking branches in one go; - offer ways to remove or rename remote; - offer ways to update an existing remote, perhaps have an interactive mode; Other enhancements might be also possible, but I do not think of anything that is absolutely necessary other than the above right now.
