60253a605d docs: clarify that --depth for git-fetch works with newly initialized repos
The original wording sounded as if --depth could only be used to deepen or
shorten the history of existing repos. However, that is not the case. In a
workflow like

    $ git init
    $ git remote add origin https://github.com/git/git.git
    $ git fetch --depth=1

The newly initialized repo is properly created as a shallow repo.

c5558f80c3 fetch: allow explicit --refmap to override configuration
Since the introduction of opportunisitic updates of remote-tracking
branches, started at around f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically
update tracking refs, 2013-05-11) with a few updates in v1.8.4 era,
the remote.*.fetch configuration always kicks in even when a refspec
to specify what to fetch is given on the command line, and there is
no way to disable or override it per-invocation.

Teach the command to pay attention to the --refmap=<lhs>:<rhs>
command-line options that can be used to override the use of
configured remote.*.fetch as the refmap.

Fetching from a shallow-cloned repository used to be forbidden,

79d3a236c5 upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots
When "fetch --depth=N" where N exceeds the longest chain of history in
the source repo, usually we just send an "unshallow" line to the
client so full history is obtained.

When the source repo is shallow we need to make sure to "unshallow"
the current shallow point _and_ "shallow" again when the commit
reaches its shallow bottom in the source repo.

This should fix both cases: large <N> and --unshallow.

0838bf47b3 fetch --prune: prune only based on explicit refspecs
The old behavior of "fetch --prune" was to prune whatever was being
fetched.  In particular, "fetch --prune --tags" caused tags not only
to be fetched, but also to be pruned.  This is inappropriate because
there is only one tags namespace that is shared among the local
repository and all remotes.  Therefore, if the user defines a local
tag and then runs "git fetch --prune --tags", then the local tag is
deleted.  Moreover, "--prune" and "--tags" can also be configured via
fetch.prune / remote.<name>.prune and remote.<name>.tagopt, making it
even less obvious that an invocation of "git fetch" could result in
tag lossage.

Since the command "git remote update" invokes "git fetch", it had the
same problem.

The command "git remote prune", on the other hand, disregarded the
setting of remote.<name>.tagopt, and so its behavior was inconsistent
with that of the other commands.

So the old behavior made it too easy to lose tags.  To fix this
problem, change "fetch --prune" to prune references based only on
refspecs specified explicitly by the user, either on the command line
or via remote.<name>.fetch.  Thus, tags are no longer made subject to
pruning by the --tags option or the remote.<name>.tagopt setting.

However, tags *are* still subject to pruning if they are fetched as
part of a refspec, and that is good.  For example:

* On the command line,

      git fetch --prune 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

  causes tags, and only tags, to be fetched and pruned, and is
  therefore a simple way for the user to get the equivalent of the old
  behavior of "--prune --tag".

* For a remote that was configured with the "--mirror" option, the
  configuration is set to include

      [remote "name"]
              fetch = +refs/*:refs/*

  , which causes tags to be subject to pruning along with all other
  references.  This is the behavior that will typically be desired for
  a mirror.

c5a84e92a2 fetch --tags: fetch tags *in addition to* other stuff
Previously, fetch's "--tags" option was considered equivalent to
specifying the refspec "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" on the command line;
in particular, it caused the remote.<name>.refspec configuration to be
ignored.

But it is not very useful to fetch tags without also fetching other
references, whereas it *is* quite useful to be able to fetch tags *in
addition to* other references.  So change the semantics of this option
to do the latter.

If a user wants to fetch *only* tags, then it is still possible to
specifying an explicit refspec:

    git fetch <remote> 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

Please note that the documentation prior to 1.8.0.3 was ambiguous
about this aspect of "fetch --tags" behavior.  Commit

    f0cb2f137c 2012-12-14 fetch --tags: clarify documentation

made the documentation match the old behavior.  This commit changes
the documentation to match the new behavior.

9eb4754d76 fetch-options.txt: prevent a wildcard refspec from getting misformatted
When explaining the "--tags" option as an equivalent to giving an
explicit "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" refspec, the two asterisks were
misinterpreted by AsciiDoc as a request to typeset the string
segment between them in bold.

We could fix it in two ways.  We can replace them with {asterisk}s
while keeping the string as body text, or we can mark it as a
literal string with backquotes around it.

Let's do the latter, as it is teaching the user an "exactly as
typed" alternative.

4dcb167fc3 fetch: add --unshallow for turning shallow repo into complete one
The user can do --depth=2147483647 (*) for restoring complete repo
now. But it's hard to remember. Any other numbers larger than the
longest commit chain in the repository would also do, but some
guessing may be involved. Make easy-to-remember --unshallow an alias
for --depth=2147483647.

Make upload-pack recognize this special number as infinite depth. The
effect is essentially the same as before, except that upload-pack is
more efficient because it does not have to traverse to the bottom
anymore.

The chance of a user actually wanting exactly 2147483647 commits
depth, not infinite, on a repository with a history that long, is
probably too small to consider. The client can learn to add or
subtract one commit to avoid the special treatment when that actually
happens.

(*) This is the largest positive number a 32-bit signed integer can
    contain. JGit and older C Git store depth as "int" so both are OK
    with this number. Dulwich does not support shallow clone.

When looking for submodules where new commits have been recorded in the
superproject ignore those cases where the submodules commits are already
present locally. This can happen e.g. when the submodule has been rewound
to an earlier state. Then there is no need to fetch the submodule again
as the commit recorded in the newly fetched superproject commit has
already been fetched earlier into the submodule.

88a21979c5 fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary
To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the
superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a
submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new
commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when
using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and
"gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a
descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added
in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to
work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using
submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule
update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as
the default for fetch and pull.

Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref()
"git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine
all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their
parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its
path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed.

Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option
disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be
ignored anyway.

There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new
submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and
pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are
not renamed.

In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git
pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

c1a3c3640d Submodules: Add the "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option
The new boolean "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option controls the
behavior for "git fetch" and "git pull". It specifies if these commands
should recurse into submodules and fetch new commits there too and can be
set separately for each submodule.

In the .gitmodules file "submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules" entries
are read before looking for them in .git/config. Thus settings found in
.git/config will override those from .gitmodules, thereby allowing the
user to ignore settings given by the remote side while also letting
upstream set reasonable defaults for those users who don't have special
needs.

This configuration can be overridden by the command line option
"--[no-]recurse-submodules" of "git fetch" and "git pull".

7dce19d374 fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules option
Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch
option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch
new commits in populated submodules from their remote.

This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of
"git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after
fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for
implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule
update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to
forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to
discover later that they are needed.

This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch
each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the
submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the
superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index.

The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able
to print out the full paths of nested submodules.

The current trend goes towards dashless forms, and there is precedent

Replace 'git-cmd' with 'git cmd' throughout, except where git-shell,

9c4a036b34 Teach the --all option to 'git fetch'
'git remote' is meant for managing remotes and 'git fetch' is meant
for actually fetching data from remote repositories. Therefore, it is
not logical that you must use 'git remote update' to fetch from
more than one repository at once.

Add the --all option to 'git fetch', to tell it to attempt to fetch
from all remotes. Also, if --all is not given, the <repository>
argument is allowed to be the name of a group, to allow fetching
from all repositories in the group.

Other options except -v and -q are silently ignored.

90e431152e git-pull: do not mention --quiet and --verbose twice
git-pull.txt includes fetch-options.txt and merge-options.txt, both of
which document the --quiet and --verbose.

Supress the ones from fetch-options.txt.

57f6ec0290 Change mentions of "git programs" to "git commands"
Most of the docs and printouts refer to "commands" when discussing what
the end users call via the "git" top-level program. We should refer them
as "git programs" when we discuss the fact that the commands are
implemented as separate programs, but in other contexts, it is better to
use the term "git commands" consistently.

ba020ef5eb manpages: italicize git command names (which were in teletype font)
The names of git commands are not meant to be entered at the
commandline; they are just names. So we render them in italics,
as is usual for command names in manpages.

Using

	doit () {
	  perl -e 'for (<>) { s/\`(git-[^\`.]*)\`/'\''\1'\''/g; print }'
	}
	for i in git*.txt config.txt diff*.txt blame*.txt fetch*.txt i18n.txt \
	        merge*.txt pretty*.txt pull*.txt rev*.txt urls*.txt
	do
	  doit <"$i" >"$i+" && mv "$i+" "$i"
	done
	git diff

3240240ff4 Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

10eb64f5fd git pull manpage: don't include -n from fetch-options.txt
The -n option stands for --no-summary in git pull

[jes: reworded the description to avoid mentioning 'git-fetch';
 also exclude '-n' conditional on git-pull -- ugly because of
 the missing "else" statement in asciidoc]

5162e69732 Documentation: rename gitlink macro to linkgit
Between AsciiDoc 8.2.2 and 8.2.3, the following change was made to the stock
Asciidoc configuration:

@@ -149,7 +153,10 @@
 # Inline macros.
 # Backslash prefix required for escape processing.
 # (?s) re flag for line spanning.
-(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>\w(\w|-)*?):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
+# Explicit so they can be nested.
+(?su)[\\]?(?P<name>(http|https|ftp|file|mailto|callto|image|link)):(?P<target>\S*?)(\[(?P<attrlist>.*?)\])=
+
 # Anchor: [[[id]]]. Bibliographic anchor.
 (?su)[\\]?\[\[\[(?P<attrlist>[\w][\w-]*?)\]\]\]=anchor3
 # Anchor: [[id,xreflabel]]

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.
