brian m. carlson d6e616cee7 setup: use the default algorithm to initialize repo format When we define a new repository format with REPOSITORY_FORMAT_INIT, we always use GIT_HASH_SHA1, and this value ends up getting used as the default value to initialize a repository if none of the command line, environment, or config tell us to do otherwise. Because we might not always want to use SHA-1 as the default, let's instead specify the default hash algorithm constant so that we will use whatever the specified default is. However, we also need to continue to read older repositories. If we're in a v0 repository or extensions.objectformat is not set, then we must continue to default to the original hash algorithm: SHA-1. If an algorithm is set explicitly, however, it will override the hash_algo member of the repository_format struct and we'll get the right value. Similarly, if the repository was initialized before Git 0.99.3, then it may lack a core.repositoryformatversion key, and some repositories lack a config file altogether. In both cases, format->version is -1 and we need to assume that SHA-1 is in use. Because clear_repository_format reinitializes the struct repository_format and therefore sets the hash_algo member to the default (which could in the future not be SHA-1), we need to reset this member explicitly. We know, however, that at the point we call read_repository_format, we are actually reading an existing repository and not initializing a new one or operating outside of a repository, so we are not changing the default behavior back to SHA-1 if the default algorithm is different. It is potentially questionable that we ignore all repository configuration if there is a config file but it doesn't have core.repositoryformatversion set, in which case we reset all of the configuration to the default. However, it is unclear what the right thing to do instead with such an old repository is and a simple git init will add the missing entry, so for now, we simply honor what the existing code does and reset the value to the default, simply adding our initialization to SHA-1.

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.adoc to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.adoc for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.adoc 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.adoc (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 to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://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
