This adds support to git-add to allow the common -- to separate command-line options and file names. It adds documentation and a new git-add test case as well. [jc: this should apply to 1.2.X maintenance series, so I reworked git-ls-files --error-unmatch test. ] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-add - Add files to the index file.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-add' [-n] [-v] [--] <file>...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
A simple wrapper for git-update-index to add files to the index,
|
|
for people used to do "cvs add".
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
<file>...::
|
|
Files to add to the index.
|
|
|
|
-n::
|
|
Don't actually add the file(s), just show if they exist.
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
Be verbose.
|
|
|
|
--::
|
|
This option can be used to separate command-line options from
|
|
the list of files, (useful when filenames might be mistaken
|
|
for command-line options).
|
|
|
|
|
|
DISCUSSION
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The list of <file> given to the command is fed to `git-ls-files`
|
|
command to list files that are not registered in the index and
|
|
are not ignored/excluded by `$GIT_DIR/info/exclude` file or
|
|
`.gitignore` file in each directory. This means two things:
|
|
|
|
. You can put the name of a directory on the command line, and
|
|
the command will add all files in it and its subdirectories;
|
|
|
|
. Giving the name of a file that is already in index does not
|
|
run `git-update-index` on that path.
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
--------
|
|
git-add Documentation/\\*.txt::
|
|
|
|
Adds all `\*.txt` files that are not in the index under
|
|
`Documentation` directory and its subdirectories.
|
|
+
|
|
Note that the asterisk `\*` is quoted from the shell in this
|
|
example; this lets the command to include the files from
|
|
subdirectories of `Documentation/` directory.
|
|
|
|
git-add git-*.sh::
|
|
|
|
Adds all git-*.sh scripts that are not in the index.
|
|
Because this example lets shell expand the asterisk
|
|
(i.e. you are listing the files explicitly), it does not
|
|
add `subdir/git-foo.sh` to the index.
