run-command documentation: fix "memset()" parameter

2008-06-17T04:31:17Z

When initializing the struct async and struct child_process structures, the documentation suggested "clearing" the structure with '0' instead of '\0'. It is enough to use integer zero here. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

run-command: Redirect stderr to a pipe before redirecting stdout to stderr

2008-03-05T20:18:03Z

With this patch, in the 'start_command' function after forking we now take care of stderr in the child process before stdout. This way if 'start_command' is called with a 'child_process' argument like this: .err = -1; .stdout_to_stderr = 1; then stderr will be redirected to a pipe before stdout is redirected to stderr. So we can now get the process' stdout from the pipe (as well as its stderr). Earlier such a call would have redirected stdout to stderr before stderr was itself redirected, and therefore stdout would not have followed stderr, which would not have been very useful anyway. Update documentation in 'api-run-command.txt' accordingly. Signed-off-by: Christian Couder Acked-by: Johannes Sixt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Most of them are still stubs, but the procedure to build the HTML documentation, maintaining the index and installing the end product are there. I placed names of people who are likely to know the most about the topic in the stub files, so that volunteers will know whom to ask questions as needed. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
