[PATCH] manpage name conflict This moves the git manpage to man7, since "git" isn't a direct command per se. It also does two other things: * Sort of works around the asciidoc 6.0.3 bug where the manpages all get called "git.1". It just renames them to what they should have been called. * Fixes a cut-n-paste bug in git-diff-helper.txt that was making asciidoc choke.

SYNOPSIS

Update git(7) man-page for the C wrapper. The program 'git' now has --exec-path which needs explaining. Renamed old "DESCRIPTION" to "CORE GIT COMMANDS" to make room for "OPTIONS" while following follow some sort of convention. Also updated AUTHORS section to pat my own back a bit.

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Documentation: revise top of git man page I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really! That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try, and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke about the architecture of git. So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together with immediate links to introductory documentation. I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important). Signed-off-by: J.

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.
See this link:tutorial.html[tutorial] to get started, then see
link:everyday.html[Everyday Git] for a useful minimum set of commands, and
"man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may
also want to read link:cvs-migration.html[CVS migration].

Documentation: not learning core git commands. The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands" section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts, then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial. Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader. I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether, but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of sections that talk about refs and the object database in a hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract without being aware of these directories and files. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Validates packed git archive files.
[PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command. Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency. This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache when the --full flag is used. During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check. We may further want to check the pack signature and version when we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch. Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s when such an error is detected.

Documentation: revise top of git man page I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really! That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try, and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke about the architecture of git. So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together with immediate links to introductory documentation. I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important). Signed-off-by: J.

git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve. In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches, the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream). This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this process by recording the conflicted automerge results and corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge, and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.

Ancillary Commands
Documentation: revise top of git man page I'm afraid I'll be accused of trying to suck all the jokes and the personality out of the git documentation. I'm not! Really! That said, "man git" is one of the first things a new user is likely try, and it seems a little cruel to start off with a somewhat obscure joke about the architecture of git. So instead I'm trying for a relatively straightforward description of what git does, and what features distinguish it from other systems, together with immediate links to introductory documentation. I also did some minor reorganization in an attempt to clarify the classification of commands. And revised a bit for conciseness (as is obvious from the diffstat--hopefully I didn't cut anything important). Signed-off-by: J.

gitlink:git-request-pull[1]::
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.

Documentation: not learning core git commands. The initial section of tutorial was too heavy on internal workings for the first-time readers, so rewrite the introductory section of git(7) to start with "not learning core git commands" section and refer them to README to grasp the basic concepts, then Everyday to give overview with task/role oriented examples for minimum set of commands, and finally the tutorial. Also add to existing note in the tutorial that many too technical descriptions can be skipped by a casual reader. I initially started to review the tutorial, with the objective of ripping out the detailed technical information altogether, but I found that the level of details in the initial couple of sections that talk about refs and the object database in a hands-on fashion was about rigth, and left all of them there. I feel that reading about fsck-index and repack is too abstract without being aware of these directories and files. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
