git/Documentation, branch v0.99

Update the tutorial a bit

2005-07-09T01:26:19Z

Add notes on branches, merging, tagging, and update some of the usage to the friendlier "git cmd" syntax. It's still ridiculously lacking, but perhaps it's a _bit_ more useful.

[PATCH] Add --info-only option to git-update-cache.

2005-07-09T00:07:37Z

Add --info-only option to git-update-cache. [JC demangled whitespace from the posted patch himself because he liked it so much. Also adjusted to the index_fd() interface slightly done differently from the original one.] Signed-off-by: Bryan Larsen Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] Expose object ID computation functions.

2005-07-09T00:07:37Z

This patch makes the first half of write_sha1_file() and index_fd() externally visible, to allow callers to compute the object ID without actually storing it in the object database. [JC demangled the whitespaces himself because he liked the patch so much, and reworked the interface to index_fd() slightly, taking suggestion from Linus and of his own.] Signed-off-by: Bryan Larsen Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

git-cvsimport-script: clean up documentation

2005-07-03T09:40:45Z

Remove documentation of irrelevant "type" option. Signed-off-by: Sven Verdoolaege

Make specification of CVS module to convert optional.

2005-07-03T09:40:44Z

If we're inside a checked out CVS repository, there is no need to explicitly specify the module as it is available in CVS/Repository. Also read CVS/Root if it's available and -d is not specified. Finally, explicitly pass root to cvsps as CVS/Root takes precedence over CVSROOT. Signed-off-by: Sven Verdoolaege

Fixed a typo in Documentation/git-cvsimport-script.txt.

[PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command.

2005-06-29T16:11:39Z

Given a list of .idx files, this command validates the index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency. This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache when the --full flag is used. During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check. We may further want to check the pack signature and version when we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch. Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s when such an error is detected.
