Git for Windows
|
||||
===============
|
||||
`microsoft/git` and the Scalar CLI
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
[](https://open.vscode.dev/git-for-windows/git)
|
||||
[](https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/actions?query=branch%3Amain+event%3Apush)
|
||||
[](https://gitter.im/git-for-windows/git?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)
|
||||
[](https://open.vscode.dev/microsoft/git)
|
||||
[](https://github.com/microsoft/git/actions/workflows/main.yml)
|
||||
|
||||
This is [Git for Windows](http://git-for-windows.github.io/), the Windows port
|
||||
of [Git](http://git-scm.com/).
|
||||
This is `microsoft/git`, a special Git distribution to support monorepo scenarios. If you are _not_
|
||||
working in a monorepo, you are likely searching for
|
||||
[Git for Windows](https://git-for-windows.github.io/) instead of this codebase.
|
||||
|
||||
The Git for Windows project is run using a [governance
|
||||
model](http://git-for-windows.github.io/governance-model.html). If you
|
||||
encounter problems, you can report them as [GitHub
|
||||
issues](https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues), discuss them on Git
|
||||
for Windows' [Google Group](http://groups.google.com/group/git-for-windows),
|
||||
and [contribute bug
|
||||
fixes](https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/wiki/How-to-participate).
|
||||
In addition to the Git command-line interface (CLI), `microsoft/git` includes the Scalar CLI to
|
||||
further enable working with extremely large repositories. Scalar is a tool to apply the latest
|
||||
recommendations and use the most advanced Git features. You can read
|
||||
[the Scalar CLI documentation](Documentation/scalar.txt) or read our
|
||||
[Scalar user guide](contrib/scalar/docs/index.md) including
|
||||
[the philosophy of Scalar](contrib/scalar/docs/philosophy.md).
|
||||
|
||||
To build Git for Windows, please either install [Git for Windows'
|
||||
SDK](https://gitforwindows.org/#download-sdk), start its `git-bash.exe`, `cd`
|
||||
to your Git worktree and run `make`, or open the Git worktree as a folder in
|
||||
Visual Studio.
|
||||
If you encounter problems with `microsoft/git`, please report them as
|
||||
[GitHub issues](https://github.com/microsoft/git/issues).
|
||||
|
||||
To verify that your build works, use one of the following methods:
|
||||
|
||||
- If you want to test the built executables within Git for Windows' SDK,
|
||||
prepend `<worktree>/bin-wrappers` to the `PATH`.
|
||||
- Alternatively, run `make install` in the Git worktree.
|
||||
- If you need to test this in a full installer, run `sdk build
|
||||
git-and-installer`.
|
||||
- You can also "install" Git into an existing portable Git via `make install
|
||||
DESTDIR=<dir>` where `<dir>` refers to the top-level directory of the
|
||||
portable Git. In this instance, you will want to prepend that portable Git's
|
||||
`/cmd` directory to the `PATH`, or test by running that portable Git's
|
||||
`git-bash.exe` or `git-cmd.exe`.
|
||||
- If you built using a recent Visual Studio, you can use the menu item
|
||||
`Build>Install git` (you will want to click on `Project>CMake Settings for
|
||||
Git` first, then click on `Edit JSON` and then point `installRoot` to the
|
||||
`mingw64` directory of an already-unpacked portable Git).
|
||||
|
||||
As in the previous bullet point, you will then prepend `/cmd` to the `PATH`
|
||||
or run using the portable Git's `git-bash.exe` or `git-cmd.exe`.
|
||||
- If you want to run the built executables in-place, but in a CMD instead of
|
||||
inside a Bash, you can run a snippet like this in the `git-bash.exe` window
|
||||
where Git was built (ensure that the `EOF` line has no leading spaces), and
|
||||
then paste into the CMD window what was put in the clipboard:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
clip.exe <<EOF
|
||||
set GIT_EXEC_PATH=$(cygpath -aw .)
|
||||
set PATH=$(cygpath -awp ".:contrib/scalar:/mingw64/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH")
|
||||
set GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR=$(cygpath -aw templates/blt)
|
||||
set GITPERLLIB=$(cygpath -aw perl/build/lib)
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
- If you want to run the built executables in-place, but outside of Git for
|
||||
Windows' SDK, and without an option to set/override any environment
|
||||
variables (e.g. in Visual Studio's debugger), you can call the Git executable
|
||||
by its absolute path and use the `--exec-path` option, like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
C:\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git\git.exe --exec-path=C:\git-sdk-64\usr\src\git help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: for this to work, you have to hard-link (or copy) the `.dll` files from
|
||||
the `/mingw64/bin` directory to the Git worktree, or add the `/mingw64/bin`
|
||||
directory to the `PATH` somehow or other.
|
||||
|
||||
To make sure that you are testing the correct binary, call `./git.exe version`
|
||||
in the Git worktree, and then call `git version` in a directory/window where
|
||||
you want to test Git, and verify that they refer to the same version (you may
|
||||
even want to pass the command-line option `--build-options` to look at the
|
||||
exact commit from which the Git version was built).
|
||||
|
||||
Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
|
||||
Why is this fork needed?
|
||||
=========================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
|
||||
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
|
||||
and full access to internals.
|
||||
Git is awesome - it's a fast, scalable, distributed version control system with an unusually rich
|
||||
command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. What more could
|
||||
you ask for?
|
||||
|
||||
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public
|
||||
License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses,
|
||||
compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus
|
||||
Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
|
||||
Well, because Git is a distributed version control system, each Git repository has a copy of all
|
||||
files in the entire history. As large repositories, aka _monorepos_ grow, Git can struggle to
|
||||
manage all that data. As Git commands like `status` and `fetch` get slower, developers stop waiting
|
||||
and start switching context. And context switches harm developer productivity.
|
||||
|
||||
Please read the file [INSTALL][] for installation instructions.
|
||||
`microsoft/git` is focused on addressing these performance woes and making the monorepo developer
|
||||
experience first-class. The Scalar CLI packages all of these recommendations into a simple set of
|
||||
commands.
|
||||
|
||||
Many Git online resources are accessible from <https://git-scm.com/>
|
||||
including full documentation and Git related tools.
|
||||
One major feature that Scalar recommends is [partial clone](https://github.blog/2020-12-21-get-up-to-speed-with-partial-clone-and-shallow-clone/),
|
||||
which reduces the amount of data transferred in order to work with a Git repository. While several
|
||||
services such as GitHub support partial clone, Azure Repos instead has an older version of this
|
||||
functionality called
|
||||
[the GVFS protocol](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/learn/git/gvfs-architecture#gvfs-protocol).
|
||||
The integration with the GVFS protocol present in `microsoft/git` is not appropriate to include in
|
||||
the core Git client because partial clone is the official version of that functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
See [Documentation/gittutorial.txt][] to get started, then see
|
||||
[Documentation/giteveryday.txt][] for a useful minimum set of commands, and
|
||||
`Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt` for documentation of each command.
|
||||
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
|
||||
read with `man gittutorial` or `git help tutorial`, and the
|
||||
documentation of each command with `man git-<commandname>` or `git help
|
||||
<commandname>`.
|
||||
Downloading and Installing
|
||||
=========================================================
|
||||
|
||||
CVS users may also want to read [Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt][]
|
||||
(`man gitcvs-migration` or `git help cvs-migration` if git is
|
||||
installed).
|
||||
If you're working in a monorepo and want to take advantage of the performance boosts in
|
||||
`microsoft/git`, then you can download the latest version installer for your OS from the
|
||||
[Releases page](https://github.com/microsoft/git/releases). Alternatively, you can opt to install
|
||||
via the command line, using the below instructions for supported OSes:
|
||||
|
||||
The user discussion and development of core Git take place on the Git
|
||||
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
|
||||
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
|
||||
[Documentation/SubmittingPatches][] for instructions on patch submission
|
||||
and [Documentation/CodingGuidelines][]).
|
||||
## Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message
|
||||
string translations (localization l10) should see [po/README.md][]
|
||||
(a `po` file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
|
||||
__Note:__ Winget is still in public preview, meaning you currently
|
||||
[need to take special installation steps](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/#install-winget):
|
||||
Either manually install the `.appxbundle` available at the
|
||||
[preview version of App Installer](https://www.microsoft.com/p/app-installer/9nblggh4nns1?ocid=9nblggh4nns1_ORSEARCH_Bing&rtc=1&activetab=pivot:overviewtab),
|
||||
or participate in the
|
||||
[Windows Insider flight ring](https://insider.windows.com/https://insider.windows.com/)
|
||||
since `winget` is available by default on preview versions of Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
|
||||
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org (not the Git list). The mailing
|
||||
list archives are available at <https://lore.kernel.org/git/>,
|
||||
<http://marc.info/?l=git> and other archival sites.
|
||||
The core git mailing list is plain text (no HTML!).
|
||||
To install with Winget, run
|
||||
|
||||
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to
|
||||
the Git Security mailing list <git-security@googlegroups.com>.
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
winget install --id microsoft.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that
|
||||
list the current status of various development topics to the mailing
|
||||
list. The discussion following them give a good reference for
|
||||
project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
|
||||
Double-check that you have the right version by running these commands,
|
||||
which should have the same output:
|
||||
|
||||
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very
|
||||
first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker"
|
||||
and the name as (depending on your mood):
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
git version
|
||||
scalar version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
|
||||
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
|
||||
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
|
||||
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
|
||||
dictionary of slang.
|
||||
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
|
||||
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
|
||||
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
|
||||
To upgrade `microsoft/git`, use the following Git command, which will download and install the latest
|
||||
release.
|
||||
|
||||
[INSTALL]: INSTALL
|
||||
[Documentation/gittutorial.txt]: Documentation/gittutorial.txt
|
||||
[Documentation/giteveryday.txt]: Documentation/giteveryday.txt
|
||||
[Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt]: Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
|
||||
[Documentation/SubmittingPatches]: Documentation/SubmittingPatches
|
||||
[Documentation/CodingGuidelines]: Documentation/CodingGuidelines
|
||||
[po/README.md]: po/README.md
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
git update-microsoft-git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You may also be alerted with a notification to upgrade, which presents a single-click process for
|
||||
running `git update-microsoft-git`.
|
||||
|
||||
## macOS
|
||||
|
||||
To install `microsoft/git` on macOS, first [be sure that Homebrew is installed](https://brew.sh/) then
|
||||
install the `microsoft-git` cask with these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
brew tap microsoft/git
|
||||
brew install --cask microsoft-git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Double-check that you have the right version by running these commands,
|
||||
which should have the same output:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
git version
|
||||
scalar version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To upgrade microsoft/git, you can run the necessary `brew` commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
brew update
|
||||
brew upgrade --cask microsoft-git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or you can run the `git update-microsoft-git` command, which will run those brew commands for you.
|
||||
|
||||
## Linux
|
||||
### Ubuntu/Debian distributions
|
||||
|
||||
On newer distributions*, you can download the most recent Debian package from
|
||||
the [releases page](https://github.com/microsoft/git/releases/latest) (or
|
||||
using a tool such as `wget`) then run:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
sudo dpkg -i <path to package>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Double-check that you have the right version by running these commands,
|
||||
which should have the same output:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
git version
|
||||
scalar version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To upgrade, you will need to repeat these steps to reinstall.
|
||||
|
||||
*Older distributions are missing some required dependencies. Even
|
||||
though the package may appear to install successfully, `microsoft/
|
||||
git` will not function as expected. If you are running Ubuntu 18.04 or
|
||||
older, please follow the install from source instructions below
|
||||
instead of installing the debian package.
|
||||
|
||||
### Other distributions
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to compile and install `microsoft/git` from source:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/git microsoft-git
|
||||
cd microsoft-git
|
||||
make -j12 prefix=/usr/local
|
||||
sudo make -j12 prefix=/usr/local install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For more assistance building Git from source, see
|
||||
[the INSTALL file in the core Git project](https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/INSTALL).
