Instead of storing a list of refnames in append_ref, a list of
structures is created. Each of these stores the refname and a
symbolic constant representing its type.
The creation of the list is filtered based on a command line
switch; no switch means "local branches only", "-r" means "remote
branches only" (as they always did); but now "-a" means "local
branches or remote branches".
As a side effect, the list is now not global, but allocated in
print_ref_list() where it used.
Also a memory leak is plugged, the memory allocated during the
list creation was never freed.
It lays a groundwork to also display tags, but the command being
'git branch' it is not currently used.

This teaches the oft-requested syntax
git merge $commit
to implement merging the named commit to the current branch.
This hopefully would make "git merge" usable as the first class
UI instead of being a mere backend for "git pull".
Most notably, $commit above can be any committish, so you can
say for example:
git merge js/shortlog~2
to merge early part of a topic branch without merging the rest
of it.
A custom merge message can be given with the new --message=<msg>
parameter. The message is prepended in front of the usual
"Merge ..." message autogenerated with fmt-merge-message.

Since functions in fetch-clone.c were only used from fetch-pack.c,
its content has been merged with fetch-pack.c. This allows for better
coupling of features with much simpler implementations.
One new thing is that the (abscence of) --thin also enforce it on
index-pack now, such that index-pack will abort if a thin pack was
_not_ asked for.
The -k or --keep, when provided twice, now causes the fetched pack
to be left as a kept pack just like receive-pack currently does.
Eventually this will be used to close a race against concurrent
repacking.

Since keeping a pushed pack or exploding it into loose objects
should be a local repository decision this teaches receive-pack
to decide if it should call unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin
--fix-thin based on the setting of receive.unpackLimit and the
number of objects contained in the received pack.
If the number of objects (hdr_entries) in the received pack is
below the value of receive.unpackLimit (which is 5000 by default)
then we unpack-objects as we have in the past.
If the hdr_entries >= receive.unpackLimit then we call index-pack and
ask it to include our pid and hostname in the .keep file to make it
easier to identify why a given pack has been kept in the repository.
Currently this leaves every received pack as a kept pack. We really
don't want that as received packs will tend to be small. Instead we
want to delete the .keep file automatically after all refs have
been updated. That is being left as room for future improvement.

To prevent a race condition between `index-pack --stdin` and
`repack -a -d` where the repack deletes the newly created pack
file before any refs are updated to reference objects contained
within it we mark the pack file as one that should be kept. This
removes it from the list of packs that `repack -a -d` will consider
for removal.
Callers such as `receive-pack` which want to invoke `index-pack`
should use this new --keep option to prevent the newly created pack
and index file pair from being deleted before they have finished any
related ref updates. Only after all ref updates have been finished
should the associated .keep file be removed.

"new file" and "deleted file" were already reported in the
original code, but the logic was not as transparent as it could
have. This uses a few variables and more comments to clarify
the flow. The rule is: (1) if a path exists in the merge result
when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".
Since we can say "new" and "deleted", there is no reason not to
follow the /dev/null convention. This fixes it.

This makes pickaxe more intelligent than the classic blame.
A typical example is a change that moves one static C function
from lower part of the file to upper part of the same file,
because you added a new caller in the middle.
The versions in the parent and the child would look like this:
parent child
A static foo() {
B ...
C }
D A
E B
F C
G D
static foo() { ... call foo();
... E
} F
H G
H
With the classic blame algorithm, we can blame lines A B C D E F
G and H to the parent. The child is guilty of introducing the
line "... call foo();", and the blame is placed on the child.
However, the classic blame algorithm fails to notice that the
implementation of foo() at the top of the file is not new, and
moved from the lower part of the parent.
This commit introduces detection of such line movements, and
correctly blames the lines that were simply moved in the file to
the parent.

Added --ignore-nodate to allow 'git svn fetch' to import revisions
from Subversion which have '(no date)' listed as the date of the
revision. By default 'git svn fetch' will crash with an error
when encountering such a revision. The user may restart the fetch
operation by adding --ignore-nodate if they want to continue tracking
that repository.
I'm not entirely sure why a centralized version control system such
as Subversion permits revisions to be created with absolutely no
date/time associated with it but it apparently is possible as one
of the Subversion repositories that I'm tracking with 'git svn'
created such a revision on '(no date)' and by '(no user)'.

This command implements the git archive protocol on the server
side. This command is not intended to be used by the end user.
Underlying git-archive command line options are sent over the
protocol from "git-archive --remote=...", just like upload-tar
currently does with "git-tar-tree=...".
As for "git-archive" command implementation, this new command
does not execute any existing "git-{tar,zip}-tree" but rely
on the archive API defined by "git-archive" patch. Hence we
get 2 good points:
- "git-archive" and "git-upload-archive" share all option
parsing code.
- All kind of git-upload-{tar,zip} can be deprecated.

git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree.
It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands.
Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines
a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in
"git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype
is defined in "archive.h" file.
- The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have
signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow
different archive backends to have different kind of options.
- The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build
the archive given some already resolved parameters.
The main reason for making this API is to avoid using
git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's
time for them to die ?
It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple
protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed
the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git).
Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one
argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush.
The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client
side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example,
to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue:
$ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD
We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example,
avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less
commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).

The command unpack-objects dies upon the first error. This is
probably considered a feature -- if a pack is corrupt, instead
of trying to extract from it and possibly risking to contaminate
a good repository with objects whose validity is dubious, we
should seek a good copy of the pack and retry. However, we may
not have any good copy anywhere. This implements the last
resort effort to extract what are salvageable from such a
corrupt pack.
This flag might have helped Sergio when recovering from a
corrupt pack. In my test, it managed to salvage 247 objects out
of a pack that had 251 objects but without it the command
stopped after extracting 73 objects.

In the Windows world ZIP files are better supported than tar files.
Windows even includes built-in support for ZIP files nowadays.
git-zip-tree is similar to git-tar-tree; it creates ZIP files out of
git trees. It stores the commit ID (if available) in a ZIP file comment
which can be extracted by unzip.
There's still quite some room for improvement: this initial version
supports no symlinks, calls write() way too often (three times per file)

The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git
object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding.
The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length
information, which is somewhat wasteful.
A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header
followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to
copy the payload straight to packfiles.
Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for
now new object files are created with the traditional format.

This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the

Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch,
recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is
reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of
the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the
cruft from the history. The topic is then abandoned or forked
off again from that point at the mainline.
The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does
not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by
using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a
strict superset of the mainline, like this:
git checkout mainline
git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch
: fix conflicts if any
rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD
git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged
This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast
forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never
create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing
special --no-commit could do to begin with.
This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a
workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge
case. The user-level operation would be the same in both cases:
git checkout mainline
git pull --squash . that-topic-branch
: fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be
: no conflict if fast forward.
git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message'
git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged
When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to
the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new
option does not have any effect.
This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently.

When multiple recipients are given to git-send-email on the same

Full and proper parsing of the email addresses so I can detect
which commas mean a new email address is more than I care to implement.
In particular this email address: "bibo,mao" <bibo.mao@intel.com>
must not be treated as two email addresses.
So this patch simply treats all commas in recipient lists as
an error and fails if one is given.
At the same time it documents that git-send-email wants multiple
instances of --cc specified on the command line if you want to
cc multiple recipients.

The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple
projects into a single commit.
In such an organization, there would be one project, root of

aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in
separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the
"primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects".
You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft
the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree

Ok this really should be the good version. The option
handling has been reworked to be automation safe.
Currently to import the -mm tree I have to work around
git-apply by using patch. Because some of Andrews
patches in quilt will only apply with fuzz.
I started out implementing a --fuzz option and then I realized
fuzz is not a very safe concept for an automated system. What
you really want is a minimum number of context lines that must
match. This allows policy to be set without knowing how many
lines of context a patch actually provides. By default
the policy remains to match all provided lines of context.
Allowng git-apply to match a restricted set of context makes
it much easier to import the -mm tree into git. I am still only
processing 1.5 to 1.6 patches a second for the 692 patches in
2.6.17-rc1-mm2 is still painful but it does help.
If I just loop through all of Andrews patches in order
and run git-apply --index -C1 I process the entire patchset
in 1m53s or about 6 patches per second. So running
git-mailinfo, git-write-tree, git-commit-tree, and
git-update-ref everytime has a measurable impact,
and shows things can be speeded up even more.
All of these timings were taking on my poor 700Mhz Athlon
with 512MB of ram. So people with fast machiens should
see much better performance.
When a match is found after the number of context are reduced a
warning is generated. Since this is a rare event and possibly
dangerous this seems to make sense. Unless you are patching

the new -C option that sets the minimum number of context
lines that must match.

The "--amend" option is used to amend the tip of the current branch. This
documentation text was copied straight from the commit that implemented it.
Some minor format tweaks for asciidoc were taken from work by Francis Daly
in commit b0d08a5.. It looks good now also in the html page.

commit 3070b60].

This command removes untracked files from the working tree. This

git-diff-* --pickaxe-regex will change the -S pickaxe to match
POSIX extended regular expressions instead of fixed strings.
The regex.h library is a rather stupid interface and I like pcre too, but
with any luck it will be everywhere we will want to run Git on, it being
POSIX.2 and all. I'm not sure if we can expect platforms like AIX to
conform to POSIX.2 or if win32 has regex.h. We might add a flag to
Makefile if there is a portability trouble potential.

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).

* master:
Optionally do not list empty directories in git-ls-files --others
Document git-rebase behavior on conflicts.
Fix error handling for nonexistent names
Without the --directory flag, git-ls-files wouldn't ever list directories,
producing no output for empty directories, which is good since they cannot
be added and they bear no content, even untracked one (if Git ever starts
tracking directories on their own, this should obviously change since the
content notion will change).
With the --directory flag however, git-ls-files would list even empty
directories. This may be good in some situations but sometimes you want to
prevent that. This patch adds a --no-empty-directory option which makes
git-ls-files omit empty directories.

This patch makes the html docs right, makes the asciidoc docs a bit odd
but consistent with what is there already, and makes the manpages look
OK using docbook-xsl 1.68, but miss a paragraph separator when using 1.69.
For the manpages, current is like
-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT
With this patch, docbook-xsl v1.68 looks like
-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT author and
while docbook-xsl v1.69 becomes
-A <author_file>
Read a file with lines on the form
username = User's Full Name <email@addr.es>
and use "User's Full Name <email@addr.es>" as the GIT author and
The extra indentation is to keep the v1.69 manpage looking sane.

Call out the two different uses of git-branch and fix a typo.
Add git-show reference
The fsck-objects command (back then it was called fsck-cache)
used to complain if objects referred to by files in .git/refs/
or objects stored in files under .git/objects/??/ were not found
as stand-alone SHA1 files (i.e. found in alternate object pools
or packed archives stored under .git/objects/pack). Back then,
packs and alternates were new curiosity and having everything as
loose objects were the norm.
When we adjusted the behaviour of fsck-cache to consider objects
found in packs are OK, we introduced the --standalone flag as a
backward compatibility measure.
It still correctly checks if your repository is complete and
consists only of loose objects, so in that sense it is doing the
"right" thing, but checking that is pointless these days. This
commit removes --standalone flag.
