Jonathan Nieder	ba020ef5eb	manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font) The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics, as is usual for command names in manpages. Using doit () { perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.])\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }' } for i in git.txt config.txt diff.txt blame.txt fetch.txt i18n.txt \ merge.txt pretty.txt pull.txt rev.txt urls.txt do doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i" done git diff .

Jonathan Nieder	483bc4f045	Documentation formatting and cleanup Following what appears to be the predominant style, format names of commands and commandlines both as `teletype text`. While we're at it, add articles ("a" and "the") in some places, italicize the name of the command in the manual page synopsis line, and add a comma or two where it seems appropriate.

Jonathan Nieder	b1889c36d8	Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git " Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Christian Couder	9e1f0a85c6	documentation: move git(7) to git(1) As the "git" man page describes the "git" command at the end-user level, it seems better to move it to man section 1.

Jeff King	3ffb58be0a	doc/git-gc: add a note about what is collected It seems to be a FAQ that people try running git-gc, and then get puzzled about why the size of their .git directory didn't change. This note mentions the reasons why things might unexpectedly get kept. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago

Johannes Schindelin	25ee9731c1	gc: call "prune --expire 2.weeks.ago" by default The only reason we did not call "prune" in git-gc was that it is an inherently dangerous operation: if there is a commit going on, you will prune loose objects that were just created, and are, in fact, needed by the commit object just about to be created. Since it is dangerous, we told users so. That led to many users not even daring to run it when it was actually safe. Besides, they are users, and should not have to remember such details as when to call git-gc with --prune, or to call git-prune directly. Of course, the consequence was that "git gc --auto" gets triggered much more often than we would like, since unreferenced loose objects (such as left-overs from a rebase or a reset --hard) were never pruned. Alas, git-prune recently learnt the option --expire <minimum-age>, which makes it a much safer operation. This allows us to call prune from git-gc, with a grace period of 2 weeks for the unreferenced loose objects (this value was determined in a discussion on the git list as a safe one). If you want to override this grace period, just set the config variable gc.pruneExpire to a different value; an example would be [gc] pruneExpire = 6.months.ago or even "never", if you feel really paranoid. Note that this new behaviour makes "--prune" be a no-op. While adding a test to t5304-prune.sh (since it really tests the implicit call to "prune"), also the original test for "prune --expire" was moved there from t1410-reflog.sh, where it did not belong.

Florian La Roche	fe2128a826	Change git-gc documentation to reflect gc.packrefs implementation. `56752391a8` (Make "git gc" pack all refs by default) changed the default of gc.packrefs to true, to pack all refs by default in any repository. IOW, the users need to disable it explicitly if they want to by setting the config variable, since 1.5.3. However, we forgot to update the documentation. This fixes it.

By renaming the macro, we can avoid being matched by the wrong regex. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dpmcgee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Jeff King	d7e56dbc4f	Documentation/git-gc: improve description of --auto This patch tries to make the description of --auto a little more clear for new users, especially those referred by the "git-gc --auto" notification message.

Jeff King	08fbb136f7	Documentation/git-gc: explain --auto in description Now that git-gc --auto tells the user to look at the man page, it makes sense to mention the auto behavior near the top (since this is likely to be most users' first exposure to git-gc).

Junio C Hamano	17815501a8	git-gc --auto: run "repack -A -d -l" as necessary. This teaches "git-gc --auto" to consolidate many packs into one without losing unreachable objects in them by using "repack -A" when there are too many packfiles that are not marked with *.keep in the repository. gc.autopacklimit configuration can be used to set the maximum number of packs a repository is allowed to have before this mechanism kicks in.

Theodore Tso	0d7566a5ba	Add --aggressive option to 'git gc' This option causes 'git gc' to more aggressively optimize the repository at the cost of taking much more wall clock and CPU time. Today this option causes git-pack-objects to use --no-use-delta option, and it allows the --window parameter to be set via the gc.aggressiveWindow configuration parameter.

Shawn O. Pearce	30f610b7b0	Create 'git gc' to perform common maintenance operations. Junio asked for a 'git gc' utility which users can execute on a regular basis to perform basic repository actions such as: * pack-refs --prune * reflog expire * repack -a -d * prune * rerere gc So here is a command which does exactly that. The parameters fed to reflog's expire subcommand can be chosen by the user by setting configuration options in .git/config (or ~/.gitconfig), as users may want different expiration windows for each repository but shouldn't be bothered to remember what they are all of the time.
