* commit -c/-C/--amend: reset timestamp and authorship to committer with ↵Erick Mattos2009-11-051-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | --reset-author When we use -c, -C, or --amend, we are trying one of two things: using the source as a template or modifying a commit with corrections. When these options are used, the authorship and timestamp recorded in the newly created commit are always taken from the original commit. This is inconvenient when we just want to borrow the commit log message or when our change to the code is so significant that we should take over the authorship (with the blame for bugs we introduce, of course). The new --reset-author option is meant to solve this need by regenerating the timestamp and setting the committer as the new author.

| * stash list: drop the default limit of 10 stashesThomas Rast2009-10-201-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'git stash list' had an undocumented limit of 10 stashes, unless other git-log arguments were specified. This surprised at least one user, but possibly served to cut the output below a screenful without using a pager. Since the last commit, 'git stash list' will fire up a pager according to the same rules as the 'git log' it calls, so we can drop the limit.

| * Introduce new pretty formats %g[sdD] for reflog informationThomas Rast2009-10-201-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add three new --pretty=format escapes: %gD long reflog descriptor (e.g. refs/stash@{0}) %gd short reflog descriptor (e.g. stash@{0}) %gs reflog message This is achieved by passing down the reflog info, if any, inside the pretty_print_context struct. We use the newly refactored get_reflog_selector(), and give it some extra functionality to extract a shortened ref. The shortening is cached inside the commit_reflogs struct; the only allocation of it happens in read_complete_reflog(), where it is initialised to 0. Also add another helper get_reflog_message() for the message extraction. Note that the --format="%h %gD: %gs" tests may not work in real repositories, as the --pretty formatter doesn't know to leave away the ": " on the last commit in an incomplete (because git-gc removed the old part) reflog. This equivalence is nevertheless the main goal of this patch. Thanks to Jeff King for reviews, the %gd testcase and documentation.

This creates difficulty for porcelains that want to see if two branches are equal. Add a helper associating to each ref a canonical name. If a user asks a porcelain to create a ref "refs/heads//master", the porcelain can run "git check-ref-format --print refs/heads//master" and only deal with "refs/heads/master" from then on.

This lets you specify an arbitrary commit. In particular, this provides a way to clean the bisection state without moving HEAD: ‘git bisect reset HEAD’. This may be useful if you are not interested in the state before you began a bisect, especially if checking out the old commit would be expensive and invalidate most of your compiled tree. Clarify the ‘git bisect reset’ documentation to explain this optional argument, which was previously mentioned only in the usage message.

This does achieve the quoting goal, but modern 'man' implementations turn the apostrophe into a unicode "proper" apostrophe (given the right circumstances), breaking code examples in many of our manpages. Quote them as \(aq instead, which is an "apostrophe quote" as per the groff_char manpage. Unfortunately, as Anders Kaseorg kindly pointed out, this is not portable beyond groff, so we add an extra Makefile variable GNU_ROFF which you need to enable to get the new quoting.

Developers who wanted to make sure that git correctly dealt with packfiles could deliberately trigger their creation and checked them after they were created carefully, but loose objects are the ones that are written by various commands from random codepaths. It made some technical sense to have a mode that checked only loose objects from the debugging point of view for that reason. Even for git developers, there no longer is any reason to type "git fsck" every five minutes these days, worried that some newly created objects might be corrupt due to recent change to git. The reason we did not make "--full" the default is probably we trust our filesystems a bit too much. At least, we trusted filesystems more than we trusted the lower core part of git that was under development. Once a packfile is created and we always use it read-only, there didn't seem to be much point in suspecting that the underlying filesystems or disks may corrupt them in such a way that is not caught by the SHA-1 checksum over the entire packfile and per object checksum. That trust in the filesystems might have been a good tradeoff between fsck performance and reliability on platforms git was initially developed on and for, but it may not be true anymore as we run on many more platforms these days.

For example: $ git cat-file -p N would output information about the replacement commit if commit N is replaced. With the "--no-replace-objects" option that this patch adds it is possible to get information about the original commit using: $ git --no-replace-objects cat-file -p N While at it, let's add some documentation about this new option in the "git replace" man page too.
