builtin/refs: new command to migrate ref storage formats

2024-06-06T16:04:34Z

Introduce a new command that allows the user to migrate a repository between ref storage formats. This new command is implemented as part of a new git-refs(1) executable. This is due to two reasons: - There is no good place to put the migration logic in existing commands. git-maintenance(1) felt unwieldy, and git-pack-refs(1) is not the correct place to put it, either. - I had it in my mind to create a new low-level command for accessing refs for quite a while already. git-refs(1) is that command and can over time grow more functionality relating to refs. This should help discoverability by consolidating low-level access to refs into a single executable. As mentioned in the preceding commit that introduces the ref storage format migration logic, the new `git refs migrate` command still has a bunch of restrictions. These restrictions are documented accordingly. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

replay: introduce new builtin

2023-11-26T01:10:48Z

For now, this is just a rename from `t/helper/test-fast-rebase.c` into `builtin/replay.c` with minimal changes to make it build appropriately. Let's add a stub documentation and a stub test script though. Subsequent commits will flesh out the capabilities of the new command and make it a more standard regular builtin.

version: fix builtin linking & documentation

2022-09-20T00:28:25Z

Like most builtins, 'version' is documented in a corresponding 'Documentation/git-version.txt' and can be invoked with 'git version'. However, the 'check-docs' Makefile target showed that it was "removed but documented: git-version." This was cause by the fact that it is not built as a standalone 'git-version' executable, therefore appearing "removed" to 'check-docs'. Without a precedent for documented builtins that aren't built into an executable *or* any clear reason why a standalone 'git-version' shouldn't exist, the 'check-docs' error appears to correctly identify an issue. To correct that mismatch, add 'git-version' to the 'BUILT_INS' list in the root Makefile (indicating that the 'cmd_version()' function appears in a file that is *not* 'builtin/version.c'). Additionally, to avoid the "no link" message in 'check-docs', list 'git-version' as an "ancilliaryinterrogator" (like 'git help') in 'command-list.txt'.

diagnose: add to command-list.txt

2022-09-20T00:27:26Z

Add 'git diagnose' as an "ancilliaryinterrogator" (like 'git bugreport') to 'command-list.txt' in order to have it show up in 'git help -a' and avoid the "no link" warning message from the 'check-docs' Makefile target. Signed-off-by: Victoria Dye Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

scalar: add to 'git help -a' command list

2022-09-02T17:02:56Z

Add 'scalar' as a 'mainporcelain' command in the Git command list. Update the regex in 'cmd-list.perl' used to match the first line of command documentation to find 'scalar(1)'. Helped-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Victoria Dye Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

docs: move http-protocol docs to man section 5

2022-08-04T21:12:24Z

Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and file-format documentation into our main documentation space by moving the http-protocol.txt documentation over. I'm renaming it to "protocol-http" to be consistent with other things in the new gitformat-protocol-* namespace. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

docs: move pack format docs to man section 5

2022-08-04T21:12:24Z

Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and file-format documentation into our main documentation space by moving the various documentation pertaining to the *.pack format and related files, and updating things that refer to it to link to the new location. By moving these we can properly link from the newly created gitformat-commit-graph to a gitformat-chunk-format page. Integrating "Documentation/technical/bitmap-format.txt" and "Documentation/technical/cruft-packs.txt" might logically be part of this change, but as those cover parts of the wider "pack format" (including associated files) that's documented outside of "Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt" let's leave those for now, subsequent commit(s) will address those.

docs: move protocol-related docs to man section 5

2022-08-04T21:12:23Z

Continue the move of existing Documentation/technical/* protocol and file-format documentation into our main documentation space. By moving the things that discuss the protocol we can properly link from e.g. lsrefs.unborn and protocol.version documentation to a manpage we build by default. So far we have been using the "gitformat-" prefix for the documentation we've been moving over from Documentation/technical/*, but for protocol documentation let's use "gitprotocol-*".
