These two files have been modified since the tests started using as test input, making the exact object names they expect to be different from what actually happens in the trash repository they use to run tests. Instead, take a snapshot of these two files and keep them in t/diff-lib/ so that we can update the real ones without having to worry about breaking tests.

"git" can mean anything, 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

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.
|
|
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
|
|
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
|
|
|
|
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
|
|
See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see
|
|
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands,
|
|
and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command.
|
|
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.
|
|
|
|
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
|
|
including full documentation and Git related tools.
|
|
|
|
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. To subscribe
|
|
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
|
|
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
|
|
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
|
|
|
|
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
|
|
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
|
|
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
|
|
reference for project status, development direction and
|
|
remaining tasks.
