Junio C Hamano	620d3f4216	Update README to point at a few key periodical messages to the list They give a good starting point to new people who want to get involved. This owes suggestions by Martin Langhoff and Steven Grimm. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	18 years ago
Nicolas Pitre	556b6600b2	sanitize content of README file Current README content is way too esoteric for someone looking at GIT for the first time. Instead it should provide a quick summary of what GIT is with a few pointers to other resources. The bulk of the previous README content is moved to Documentation/core-intro.txt.

Junio C Hamano	2fa090b6c1	Documentation: git.html/git.7 Finish each sentence with a full stop. Instead of saying 'directory index' 'directory cache' etc, consistently say 'index'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	27dedf0c3b	GIT 0.99.9j aka 1.0rc3 Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	cd0a781c38	Documentation: do not blindly run 'cat' .git/HEAD, or echo into it. Many places in the documentation we still talked about reading what commit is recorded in .git/HEAD or writing the new head information into it, both assuming .git/HEAD is a symlink. That is not necessarily so. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago

Sergey Vlasov	a7154e916c	[PATCH] Documentation: Update all files to use the new gitlink: macro The replacement was performed automatically by these commands: perl -pi -e 's/link:(git.+)\.html\[\1\]/gitlink:$1\[1\]/g' \ README Documentation/.txt perl -pi -e 's/link:git\.html\[git\]/gitlink:git\[7\]/g' \ README Documentation/.txt Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov <vsu@altlinux.ru> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	20 years ago
Junio C Hamano	215a7ad1ef	Big tool rename. As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.

Junio C Hamano	8db9307c9c	Documentaion updates. Mostly making the formatted html prettier. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> (cherry picked from 7adf1f15ebe074d4767df941817a6cf86d8e2533 commit)	20 years ago
Greg Louis	cdacb6208f	[PATCH] use it's and its correctly in documentation At one place in Documentation/tutorial.txt and several in the base README, its was wrongly used in place of it's or vice versa. One instance remains somewhere in Documentation/howto/, which I didn't correct because it's in a quotation.

Bryan Larsen	7672db20c2	[PATCH] Expose object ID computation functions. This patch makes the first half of write_sha1_file() and index_fd() externally visible, to allow callers to compute the object ID without actually storing it in the object database. [JC demangled the whitespaces himself because he liked the patch so much, and reworked the interface to index_fd() slightly, taking suggestion from Linus and of his own.] Signed-off-by: Bryan Larsen <bryan.larsen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>	20 years ago
Junio C Hamano	c4584ae3fd	[PATCH] Remove "delta" object representation. Packed delta files created by git-pack-objects seems to be the way to go, and existing "delta" object handling code has exposed the object representation details to too many places. Remove it while we refactor code to come up with a proper interface in sha1_file.c. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>	20 years ago

Junio C Hamano	d19938ab60	Rename environment variables. H. Peter Anvin mentioned that using SHA1_whatever as an environment variable name is not nice and we should instead use names starting with "GIT_" prefix to avoid conflicts. Here is what this patch does: * Renames the following environment variables: New name Old Name GIT_AUTHOR_DATE AUTHOR_DATE GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL AUTHOR_EMAIL GIT_AUTHOR_NAME AUTHOR_NAME GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL COMMIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL GIT_COMMITTER_NAME COMMIT_AUTHOR_NAME GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORIES GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY * Introduces a compatibility macro, gitenv(), which does an getenv() and if it fails calls gitenv_bc(), which in turn picks up the value from old name while giving a warning about using an old name. * Changes all users of the environment variable to fetch environment variable with the new name using gitenv(). * Updates the documentation and scripts shipped with Linus GIT distribution. The transition plan is as follows: * We will keep the backward compatibility list used by gitenv() for now, so the current scripts and user environments continue to work as before. The users will get warnings when they have old name but not new name in their environment to the stderr. * The Porcelain layers should start using new names. However, just in case it ends up calling old Plumbing layer implementation, they should also export old names, taking values from the corresponding new names, during the transition period. * After a transition period, we would drop the compatibility support and drop gitenv(). Revert the callers to directly call getenv() but keep using the new names. The last part is probably optional and the transition duration needs to be set to a reasonable value.
