Victoria Dye 7b5c93c6c6 scalar: include in standard Git build & installation Move 'scalar' out of 'contrib/' and into the root of the Git tree. The goal of this change is to build 'scalar' as part of the standard Git build & install processes. This patch includes both the physical move of Scalar's files out of 'contrib/' ('scalar.c', 'scalar.txt', and 't9xxx-scalar.sh'), and the changes to the build definitions in 'Makefile' and 'CMakelists.txt' to accommodate the new program. At a high level, Scalar is built so that: - there is a 'scalar-objs' target (similar to those created in `029bac01a8` (Makefile: add {program,xdiff,test,git,fuzz}-objs & objects targets, 2021-02-23)) for debugging purposes. - it appears in the root of the install directory (rather than the gitexecdir). - it is included in the 'bin-wrappers/' directory for use in tests. - it receives a platform-specific executable suffix (e.g., '.exe'), if applicable. - 'scalar.txt' is installed as 'man1' documentation. - the 'clean' target removes the 'scalar' executable. Additionally, update the root level '.gitignore' file to ignore the Scalar executable.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
"global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
"goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
