Todd Zullinger f64a21bd82 Documentation/git-show-branch: avoid literal {apostrophe}
The {apostrophe} was needed at the time of a521845800 ("Documentation:
remove stray backslash in show-branch discussion", 2010-08-20).  All
other uses of {apostrophe} were removed in 6cf378f0cb ("docs: stop using
asciidoc no-inline-literal", 2012-04-26).

Unfortunately, the {apostrophe} is rendered literally with Asciidoctor
(at least with 1.5.5-2.0.3).  Avoid this by using single-quotes.

Escaping the leading single-quote allows the content to render properly
in AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 76a8788c14 doc: keep first level section header in upper case
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.

Similarly to the previous commit, use backquotes instead of

This was obtained with:

Martin von Zweigbergk 7791a1d9b9 Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sections
The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already
use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span
several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse]
does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section
indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that
use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections
for consistency.

Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to
align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which
already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to
the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting
within the document more consistent.

While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with
other commands.

Jeff King 48bb914ed6 doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pages
The point of these sections is generally to:

  1. Give credit where it is due.

  2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
     file bug reports.

But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame.  For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.

So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.

Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

Currently, whenever we need documentation for revisions and ranges, we
link to the git-rev-parse man page, i.e. a plumbing man page, which has
this along with the documentation of all rev-parse modes.

Link to the new gitrevisions man page instead in all cases except

* ml/color-when:
  Add an optional argument for --color options
2010-03-02 12:44:06 -08:00
Mark Lodato 73e9da0196 Add an optional argument for --color options
Make git-branch, git-show-branch, git-grep, and all the diff-based
programs accept an optional argument <when> for --color.  The argument
is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto".  If no argument is given,
"always" is used;  --no-color is an alias for --color=never.  This makes
the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls'
and `grep', and with the git-config color options.  Note that, without
an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before.

To implement this, two internal changes were made:

1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL,
   in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never",
   or "auto".

2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb()
   to the option parsing library.  The callback uses
   git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency
   of parse-options.c.

Jeff King cc1b8d8bc6 docs: don't talk about $GIT_DIR/refs/ everywhere
It is misleading to say that we pull refs from $GIT_DIR/refs/*, because we
may also consult the packed refs mechanism. These days we tend to treat
the "refs hierarchy" as more of an abstract namespace that happens to be
represented as $GIT_DIR/refs. At best, this is a minor inaccuracy, but at
worst it can confuse users who then look in $GIT_DIR/refs and find that it
is missing some of the refs they expected to see.

This patch drops most uses of "$GIT_DIR/refs/*", changing them into just
"refs/*", under the assumption that users can handle the concept of an
abstract refs namespace. There are a few things to note:

  - most cases just dropped the $GIT_DIR/ portion. But for cases where
    that left _just_ the word "refs", I changed it to "refs/" to help
    indicate that it was a hierarchy.  I didn't do the same for longer
    paths (e.g., "refs/heads" remained, instead of becoming
    "refs/heads/").

  - in some cases, no change was made, as the text was explicitly about
    unpacked refs (e.g., the discussion in git-pack-refs).

  - In some cases it made sense instead to note the existence of packed
    refs (e.g., in check-ref-format and rev-parse).

Jonathan Nieder b1889c36d8 Documentation: be consistent about "git-" versus "git "
Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)

This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.

The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

Stephan Beyer 3240240ff4 Docs: Use "-l::\n--long\n" format in OPTIONS sections
The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

Junio C Hamano 76a44c5c0b show-branch --reflog: show the reflog message at the top.
This changes the output so the list at the top shows the reflog
message, along with their relative timestamps.

You can use --reflog=<n> to show <n> most recent log entries, or
use --reflog=<n>,<b> to show <n> entries going back from the
entry <b>.  <b> can be either a number (so --reflog=4,20 shows 4
records starting from @{20}) or a timestamp (e.g. --reflog='4,1 day').

Here is a sample output (with --list option):

  $ git show-branch --reflog=10 --list jc/show-reflog

At @{9}, I had a commit to complete 5 patch series, but I wanted
to consolidate two commits that enhances read_ref_at() into one
(they were @{9}^ and @{9}~3), and another two that touch show-branch
into one (@{9} and @{9}~2).

I first saved them with "format-patch -4", and then did a reset
at @{8}.  At @{7}, I applied one of them with "am", and then
used "git-apply" on the other one, and amended the commit at
@{6} (so @{6} and @{7} has the same parent).  I did not like the
log message, so I amended again at @{5}.

Then I cherry-picked @{9}~2 to create @{3} (the log message
shows that it needs to learn to set GIT_REFLOG_ACTION -- it uses
"git-commit" and the log entry is attributed for it).  Another
cherry-pick built @{2} out of @{9}, but what I wanted to do was
to squash these two into one, so I did a "reset HEAD^" at @{1}
and then made the final commit by amending what was at the top.

Junio C Hamano 1aa68d6735 show-branch: --current includes the current branch.
With this, the command includes the current branch to the list
of revs to be shown when it is not given on the command line.
This is handy to use in the configuration file like this:

	[showbranch]
	default = --current
	default = heads/*	; primary branches, not topics under
				; subdirectories

Junio C Hamano ebedc31952 show-branch: make the current branch and merge commits stand out.
This changes the character used to mark the commits that is on the
branch from '+' to '*' for the current branch, to make it stand out.
Also we show '-' for merge commits.

When you have a handful branches with relatively long diversion, it
is easier to see which one is the current branch this way.

Junio C Hamano 287f860054 show-branch: allow glob pattern to name branches to show.
With this, you can say "git-show-branch topic/* master" to show
all the topic branches you have under .git/refs/heads/topic/ and
your master branch.  Another example is "git-show-branch --list
v1.0*" to show all the v1.0 tags.  You can disambiguate by
saying "heads/topic/*" to show only topic branches if you have
tags under .git/refs/tags/topic/ as well.

Junio C Hamano 013f276eb7 show-branch: optionally use unique prefix as name.

commits using the unique prefix of their object names, and
--no-name to not to show names at all.

This was outlined in <7vk6gpyuyr.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net>
