Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason b9dd63ffe2 submodule API: don't handle SM_..{UNSPECIFIED,COMMAND} in to_string()
Change the submodule_strategy_to_string() function added in
3604242f08 (submodule: port init from shell to C, 2016-04-15) to
really return a "const char *". In the "SM_UPDATE_COMMAND" case it
would return a strbuf_detach().

Furthermore, this function would return NULL on SM_UPDATE_UNSPECIFIED,
so it wasn't safe to xstrdup() its return value in the general case,
or to use it in a sprintf() format as the code removed in the
preceding commit did.

But its callers would never call it with either SM_UPDATE_UNSPECIFIED
or SM_UPDATE_COMMAND. Let's have its behavior reflect how its only
user expects it to behave, and BUG() out on the rest.

By doing this we can also stop needlessly xstrdup()-ing and free()-ing
the memory for the config we're setting. We can instead always use
constant strings. We can also use the *_tmp() variant of
git_config_get_string().

Let's also rename this submodule_strategy_to_string() function to
submodule_update_type_to_string(). Now that it's only tasked with
returning a string version of the "enum submodule_update_type type".
Before it would look at the "command" field in "struct
submodule_update_strategy".

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
