Merge branch 'nd/command-list'

2018-06-01T06:06:37Z

The list of commands with their various attributes were spread across a few places in the build procedure, but it now is getting a bit more consolidated to allow more automation. * nd/command-list: completion: allow to customize the completable command list completion: add and use --list-cmds=alias completion: add and use --list-cmds=nohelpers Move declaration for alias.c to alias.h completion: reduce completable command list completion: let git provide the completable command list command-list.txt: documentation and guide line help: use command-list.txt for the source of guides help: add "-a --verbose" to list all commands with synopsis git: support --list-cmds=list- completion: implement and use --list-cmds=main,others git --list-cmds: collect command list in a string_list git.c: convert --list-* to --list-cmds=* Remove common-cmds.h help: use command-list.h for common command list generate-cmds.sh: export all commands to command-list.h generate-cmds.sh: factor out synopsis extract code

Merge branch 'nd/doc-header'

2018-05-23T05:38:22Z

Doc formatting fix. * nd/doc-header: doc: keep first level section header in upper case

help: use command-list.txt for the source of guides

2018-05-21T04:23:14Z

The help command currently hard codes the list of guides and their summary in C. Let's move this list to command-list.txt. This lets us extract summary lines from Documentation/git*.txt. This also potentially lets us list guides in git.txt, but I'll leave that for now. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'ls/checkout-encoding'

2018-05-08T06:59:22Z

The new "checkout-encoding" attribute can ask Git to convert the contents to the specified encoding when checking out to the working tree (and the other way around when checking in). * ls/checkout-encoding: convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding' convert: add tracing for 'working-tree-encoding' attribute convert: check for detectable errors in UTF encodings convert: add 'working-tree-encoding' attribute utf8: add function to detect a missing UTF-16/32 BOM utf8: add function to detect prohibited UTF-16/32 BOM utf8: teach same_encoding() alternative UTF encoding names strbuf: add a case insensitive starts_with() strbuf: add xstrdup_toupper() strbuf: remove unnecessary NUL assignment in xstrdup_tolower()

doc: keep first level section header in upper case

2018-05-02T08:03:33Z

When formatted as a man page, 1st section header is always in upper case even if we write it otherwise. Make all 1st section headers uppercase to keep it close to the final output. This does affect html since case is kept there, but I still think it's a good idea to maintain a consistent style for 1st section headers. Some sections perhaps should become second sections instead, where case is kept, and for better organization. I will update if anyone has suggestions about this. While at there I also make some header more consistent (e.g. examples vs example) and fix a couple minor things here and there. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

convert: add round trip check based on 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'

2018-04-16T02:40:56Z

UTF supports lossless conversion round tripping and conversions between UTF and other encodings are mostly round trip safe as Unicode aims to be a superset of all other character encodings. However, certain encodings (e.g. SHIFT-JIS) are known to have round trip issues [1]. Add 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding', which contains a comma separated list of encodings, to define for what encodings Git should check the conversion round trip if they are used in the 'working-tree-encoding' attribute. Set SHIFT-JIS as default value for 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'.

convert: add 'working-tree-encoding' attribute

2018-04-16T02:40:56Z

Git recognizes files encoded with ASCII or one of its supersets (e.g. UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1) as text files. All other encodings are usually interpreted as binary and consequently built-in Git text processing tools (e.g. 'git diff') as well as most Git web front ends do not visualize the content. Add an attribute to tell Git what encoding the user has defined for a given file. If the content is added to the index, then Git reencodes the content to a canonical UTF-8 representation. On checkout Git will reverse this operation. Signed-off-by: Lars Schneider Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'jk/attributes-path-doc'

2018-03-21T18:30:15Z

Doc update. * jk/attributes-path-doc: doc/gitattributes: mention non-recursive behavior

doc/gitattributes: mention non-recursive behavior

2018-03-20T17:01:03Z

The gitattributes documentation claims that the pattern rules are largely the same as for gitignore. However, the rules for recursion are different. In an ideal world, we would make them the same (if for nothing else than consistency and simplicity), but that would create backwards compatibility issues. For some discussion, see this thread: https://public-inbox.org/git/slrnkldd3g.1l4.jan@majutsushi.net/ But let's at least document the differences instead of actively misleading the user by claiming that they're the same.

userdiff: add built-in pattern for golang

2018-03-01T21:36:49Z

This adds xfuncname and word_regex patterns for golang, a quite popular programming language. It also includes test cases for the xfuncname regex (t4018) and updated documentation. The xfuncname regex finds functions, structs and interfaces. Although the Go language prohibits the opening brace from being on its own line, the regex does not makes it mandatory, to be able to match `func` statements like this: func foo(bar int, baz int) { } This is covered by the test case t4018/golang-long-func. The word_regex pattern finds identifiers, integers, floats, complex numbers and operators, according to the go specification. Signed-off-by: Alban Gruin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
