GIT v1.5.0.5 Release Notes
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
Fixes since v1.5.0.3
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfixes
|
||||
|
||||
- git-merge (hence git-pull) did not refuse fast-forwarding
|
||||
when the working tree had local changes that would have
|
||||
conflicted with it.
|
||||
|
||||
- git.el does not add duplicate sign-off lines.
|
||||
|
||||
- git-commit shows the full stat of the resulting commit, not
|
||||
just about the files in the current directory, when run from
|
||||
a subdirectory.
|
||||
|
||||
- "git-checkout -m '@{8 hours ago}'" had a funny failure from
|
||||
eval; fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
- git-gui updates.
|
||||
|
||||
* Documentation updates
|
||||
|
||||
* User manual updates

GIT v1.5.0.6 Release Notes
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
Fixes since v1.5.0.5
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfixes
|
||||
|
||||
- a handful small fixes to gitweb.
|
||||
|
||||
- build procedure for user-manual is fixed not to require locally
|
||||
installed stylesheets.
|
||||
|
||||
- "git commit $paths" on paths whose earlier contents were
|
||||
already updated in the index were failing out.
|
||||
|
||||
* Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
- user-manual has better cross references.
|
||||
|
||||
- gitweb installation/deployment procedure is now documented.

Fixes since v1.5.0.6
|

|

- git-rerere was recording the contents of earlier hunks
|
||||
duplicated in later hunks. This prevented resolving the same
|
||||
conflict when performing the same merge the other way around.
|
||||
|
||||

Via the alternates mechanism, a repository can inherit part of its

object database from another object database, which is called

"alternate".
|

GIT Glossary
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
bare repository::
|
||||
A bare repository is normally an appropriately named
|
||||
directory with a `.git` suffix that does not have a
|
||||
locally checked-out copy of any of the files under revision
|
||||
control. That is, all of the `git` administrative and
|
||||
control files that would normally be present in the
|
||||
hidden `.git` sub-directory are directly present in
|
||||
the `repository.git` directory instead, and no other files
|
||||
are present and checked out. Usually publishers of public
|
||||
repositories make bare repositories available.
|
||||
[[def_alternate_object_database]]alternate object database::
|
||||
Via the alternates mechanism, a <<def_repository,repository>> can
|
||||
inherit part of its <<def_object_database,object database>> from another
|
||||
<<def_object_database,object database>>, which is called "alternate".
|
||||
|
||||
blob object::
|
||||
Untyped object, e.g. the contents of a file.
|
||||
[[def_bare_repository]]bare repository::
|
||||
A <<def_bare_repository,bare repository>> is normally an appropriately
|
||||
named <<def_directory,directory>> with a `.git` suffix that does not
|
||||
have a locally checked-out copy of any of the files under
|
||||
<<def_revision,revision>> control. That is, all of the `git`
|
||||
administrative and control files that would normally be present in the
|
||||
hidden `.git` sub-directory are directly present in the
|
||||
`repository.git` directory instead,
|
||||
and no other files are present and checked out. Usually publishers of
|
||||
public repositories make bare repositories available.
|
||||
|
||||
branch::
|
||||
A non-cyclical graph of revisions, i.e. the complete history of
|
||||
a particular revision, which is called the branch head. The
|
||||
branch heads are stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/`.
|
||||
[[def_blob_object]]blob object::
|
||||
Untyped <<def_object,object>>, e.g. the contents of a file.
|
||||
|
||||
cache::
|
||||
Obsolete for: index.
|
||||
[[def_branch]]branch::
|
||||
A non-cyclical graph of revisions, i.e. the complete history of a
|
||||
particular <<def_revision,revision>>, which is called the
|
||||
branch <<def_head,head>>. The heads
|
||||
are stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/`.
|
||||
|
||||
chain::
|
||||
A list of objects, where each object in the list contains a
|
||||
reference to its successor (for example, the successor of a commit
|
||||
could be one of its parents).
|
||||
[[def_cache]]cache::
|
||||
Obsolete for: <<def_index,index>>.
|
||||
|
||||
changeset::
|
||||
BitKeeper/cvsps speak for "commit". Since git does not store
|
||||
changes, but states, it really does not make sense to use
|
||||
the term "changesets" with git.
|
||||
[[def_chain]]chain::
|
||||
A list of objects, where each <<def_object,object>> in the list contains
|
||||
a reference to its successor (for example, the successor of a
|
||||
<<def_commit,commit>> could be one of its parents).
|
||||
|
||||
checkout::
|
||||
The action of updating the working tree to a revision which was
|
||||
stored in the object database.
|
||||
[[def_changeset]]changeset::
|
||||
BitKeeper/cvsps speak for "<<def_commit,commit>>". Since git does not
|
||||
store changes, but states, it really does not make sense to use the term
|
||||
"changesets" with git.
|
||||
|
||||
cherry-picking::
|
||||
In SCM jargon, "cherry pick" means to choose a subset of
|
||||
changes out of a series of changes (typically commits)
|
||||
and record them as a new series of changes on top of
|
||||
different codebase. In GIT, this is performed by
|
||||
"git cherry-pick" command to extract the change
|
||||
introduced by an existing commit and to record it based
|
||||
on the tip of the current branch as a new commit.
|
||||
[[def_checkout]]checkout::
|
||||
The action of updating the <<def_working_tree,working tree>> to a
|
||||
<<def_revision,revision>> which was stored in the
|
||||
<<def_object_database,object database>>.
|
||||
|
||||
clean::
|
||||
A working tree is clean, if it corresponds to the revision
|
||||
referenced by the current head. Also see "dirty".
|
||||
[[def_cherry-picking]]cherry-picking::
|
||||
In <<def_SCM,SCM>> jargon, "cherry pick" means to choose a subset of
|
||||
changes out of a series of changes (typically commits) and record them
|
||||
as a new series of changes on top of different codebase. In GIT, this is
|
||||
performed by "git cherry-pick" command to extract the change introduced
|

by an existing <<def_commit,commit>> and to record it based on the tip
|
||||
of the current <<def_branch,branch>> as a new <<def_commit,commit>>.
|
||||
|
||||
commit::
|
||||
As a verb: The action of storing the current state of the index in the
|
||||
object database. The result is a revision.
|
||||
As a noun: Short hand for commit object.
|
||||
[[def_clean]]clean::
|
||||
A <<def_working_tree,working tree>> is <<def_clean,clean>>, if it
|
||||
corresponds to the <<def_revision,revision>> referenced by the current
|
||||
<<def_head,head>>. Also see "<<def_dirty,dirty>>".
|
||||
|
||||
commit object::
|
||||
An object which contains the information about a particular
|
||||
revision, such as parents, committer, author, date and the
|
||||
tree object which corresponds to the top directory of the
|
||||
stored revision.
|
||||
[[def_commit]]commit::
|
||||
As a verb: The action of storing the current state of the
|
||||
<<def_index,index>> in the <<def_object_database,object database>>. The
|
||||
result is a <<def_revision,revision>>. As a noun: Short hand for
|
||||
<<def_commit_object,commit object>>.
|
||||
|
||||
core git::
|
||||
Fundamental data structures and utilities of git. Exposes only
|

limited source code management tools.
|
||||
[[def_commit_object]]commit object::
|
||||
An <<def_object,object>> which contains the information about a
|
||||
particular <<def_revision,revision>>, such as parents, committer,
|
||||
author, date and the <<def_tree_object,tree object>> which corresponds
|
||||
to the top <<def_directory,directory>> of the stored
|
||||
<<def_revision,revision>>.
|
||||
|
||||
DAG::
|
||||
Directed acyclic graph. The commit objects form a directed acyclic
|
||||
graph, because they have parents (directed), and the graph of commit
|
||||
objects is acyclic (there is no chain which begins and ends with the
|
||||
same object).

[[def_core_git]]core git::
|
||||
Fundamental data structures and utilities of git. Exposes only limited

|
||||
|
||||
dangling object::
|
||||
An unreachable object which is not reachable even from other
|
||||
unreachable objects; a dangling object has no references to it
|
||||
from any reference or object in the repository.
|
||||
[[def_DAG]]DAG::
|
||||
Directed acyclic graph. The <<def_commit,commit>> objects form a
|
||||
directed acyclic graph, because they have parents (directed), and the

||||
<<def_chain,chain>> which begins and ends with the same
|
||||
<<def_object,object>>).
|
||||
|
||||
dircache::
|
||||
[[def_dangling_object]]dangling object::
|
||||
An <<def_unreachable_object,unreachable object>> which is not
|
||||
<<def_reachable,reachable>> even from other unreachable objects; a
|
||||
<<def_dangling_object,dangling object>> has no references to it from any
|
||||
reference or <<def_object,object>> in the <<def_repository,repository>>.
|
||||
|
||||
[[def_dircache]]dircache::
|
||||
You are *waaaaay* behind.
|

|
||||
dirty::
|
||||
A working tree is said to be dirty if it contains modifications
|
||||
which have not been committed to the current branch.
|
||||
|
||||
directory::
|
||||
[[def_directory]]directory::

[[def_dirty]]dirty::
|

explanation. Avoid this term, not to confuse people.
|
||||
|
||||
fast forward::
|
||||
A fast-forward is a special type of merge where you have
|
||||
a revision and you are "merging" another branch's changes
|
||||
that happen to be a descendant of what you have.
|
||||
In such these cases, you do not make a new merge commit but
|
||||
instead just update to his revision. This will happen
|
||||
frequently on a tracking branch of a remote repository.
|
||||
[[def_fast_forward]]fast forward::
|
||||
A fast-forward is a special type of <<def_merge,merge>> where you have a
|

<<def_revision,revision>> and you are "merging" another
|

you have. In such these cases, you do not make a new <<def_merge,merge>>
|

<<def_revision,revision>>. This will happen frequently on a
|
||||
<<def_tracking_branch,tracking branch>> of a remote
|
||||
<<def_repository,repository>>.
|
||||
|
||||
fetch::
|
||||
Fetching a branch means to get the branch's head ref from a
|
||||
remote repository, to find out which objects are missing from
|
||||
the local object database, and to get them, too.
|
||||
[[def_fetch]]fetch::
|
||||
Fetching a <<def_branch,branch>> means to get the
|
||||
<<def_branch,branch>>'s <<def_head_ref,head ref>> from a remote
|
||||
<<def_repository,repository>>, to find out which objects are missing
|
||||
from the local <<def_object_database,object database>>, and to get them,
|
||||
too.
|
||||
|
||||
file system::
|
||||
Linus Torvalds originally designed git to be a user space file
|
||||
system, i.e. the infrastructure to hold files and directories.
|
||||
That ensured the efficiency and speed of git.

Synonym for repository (for arch people).
|
||||
[[def_git_archive]]git archive::
|
||||
Synonym for <<def_repository,repository>> (for arch people).
|
||||
|
||||
grafts::
|
||||
Grafts enables two otherwise different lines of development to be
|
||||
joined together by recording fake ancestry information for commits.
|
||||
This way you can make git pretend the set of parents a commit
|
||||
has is different from what was recorded when the commit was created.
|
||||
Configured via the `.git/info/grafts` file.
|
||||
[[def_grafts]]grafts::
|
||||
Grafts enables two otherwise different lines of development to be joined
|
||||
together by recording fake ancestry information for commits. This way
|
||||
you can make git pretend the set of parents a <<def_commit,commit>> has
|

created. Configured via the `.git/info/grafts` file.
|
||||
|
||||
hash::
|
||||
In git's context, synonym to object name.
|
||||
[[def_hash]]hash::
|
||||
In git's context, synonym to <<def_object_name,object name>>.
|
||||
|
||||
head::
|
||||
The top of a branch. It contains a ref to the corresponding
|
||||
commit object.
|
||||
[[def_head]]head::
|
||||
The top of a <<def_branch,branch>>. It contains a <<def_ref,ref>> to the
|
||||
corresponding <<def_commit_object,commit object>>.
|
||||
|
||||
head ref::
|
||||
A ref pointing to a head. Often, this is abbreviated to "head".
|
||||
Head refs are stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/`.
|
||||
[[def_head_ref]]head ref::
|
||||
A <<def_ref,ref>> pointing to a <<def_head,head>>. Often, this is
|
||||
abbreviated to "<<def_head,head>>". Head refs are stored in
|
||||
`$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/`.
|
||||
|
||||
hook::
|
||||
During the normal execution of several git commands,
|
||||
call-outs are made to optional scripts that allow
|
||||
a developer to add functionality or checking.
|
||||
Typically, the hooks allow for a command to be pre-verified
|
||||
and potentially aborted, and allow for a post-notification
|
||||
after the operation is done.
|
||||
The hook scripts are found in the `$GIT_DIR/hooks/` directory,
|
||||
and are enabled by simply making them executable.
|
||||
[[def_hook]]hook::
|
||||
During the normal execution of several git commands, call-outs are made

`$GIT_DIR/hooks/` <<def_directory,directory>>, and are enabled by simply
|
||||
making them executable.
|
||||
|
||||
index::
|
||||
A collection of files with stat information, whose contents are
|
||||
stored as objects. The index is a stored version of your working
|
||||
tree. Truth be told, it can also contain a second, and even a third
|
||||
version of a working tree, which are used when merging.
|
||||
[[def_index]]index::
|
||||
A collection of files with stat information, whose contents are stored
|
||||
as objects. The <<def_index,index>> is a stored version of your working
|
||||
<<def_tree,tree>>. Truth be told, it can also contain a second, and even
|
||||
a third version of a <<def_working_tree,working tree>>, which are used
|
||||
when merging.
|
||||
|
||||
index entry::
|
||||
The information regarding a particular file, stored in the index.
|
||||
An index entry can be unmerged, if a merge was started, but not
|
||||
yet finished (i.e. if the index contains multiple versions of
|
||||
that file).
|
||||
[[def_index_entry]]index entry::
|
||||
The information regarding a particular file, stored in the
|

|
||||
<<def_index,index>> contains multiple versions of that file).
|
||||
|
||||
master::
|
||||
The default development branch. Whenever you create a git
|

[[def_master]]master::
|
||||
The default development <<def_branch,branch>>. Whenever you create a git
|
||||
<<def_repository,repository>>, a <<def_branch,branch>> named

||||
|
||||
merge::

To merge branches means to try to accumulate the changes since a
|
||||
common ancestor and apply them to the first branch. An automatic

The default upstream <<def_repository,repository>>. Most projects have
|
||||
at least one upstream project which they track. By default

|
||||
The term pickaxe refers to an option to the diffcore routines
|
||||
that help select changes that add or delete a given text string.
|
||||
With the --pickaxe-all option, it can be used to view the

|
||||
pull::
|
||||
Pulling a branch means to fetch it and merge it.
|

Pulling a <<def_branch,branch>> means to <<def_fetch,fetch>> it and
|
||||
<<def_merge,merge>> it.
|
||||
|
||||
push::
|
||||
Pushing a branch means to get the branch's head ref from a remote
|
||||
repository, find out if it is an ancestor to the branch's local
|
||||
head ref is a direct, and in that case, putting all objects, which
|
||||
are reachable from the local head ref, and which are missing from
|
||||
the remote repository, into the remote object database, and updating
|
||||
the remote head ref. If the remote head is not an ancestor to the
|
||||
local head, the push fails.
|
||||
[[def_push]]push::
|
||||
Pushing a <<def_branch,branch>> means to get the <<def_branch,branch>>'s
|
||||
<<def_head_ref,head ref>> from a remote <<def_repository,repository>>,
|
||||
find out if it is an ancestor to the <<def_branch,branch>>'s local
|
||||
<<def_head_ref,head ref>> is a direct, and in that case, putting all
|
||||
objects, which are <<def_reachable,reachable>> from the local
|
||||
<<def_head_ref,head ref>>, and which are missing from the remote
|
||||
<<def_repository,repository>>, into the remote
|
||||
<<def_object_database,object database>>, and updating the remote
|
||||
<<def_head_ref,head ref>>. If the remote <<def_head,head>> is not an
|
||||
ancestor to the local <<def_head,head>>, the <<def_push,push>> fails.
|
||||
|
||||
reachable::
|
||||
All of the ancestors of a given commit are said to be reachable from
|
||||
that commit. More generally, one object is reachable from another if
|
||||
we can reach the one from the other by a chain that follows tags to
|
||||
whatever they tag, commits to their parents or trees, and trees to the
|
||||
trees or blobs that they contain.
|
||||
[[def_reachable]]reachable::
|
||||
All of the ancestors of a given <<def_commit,commit>> are said to be
|
||||
<<def_reachable,reachable>> from that <<def_commit,commit>>. More
|
||||
generally, one <<def_object,object>> is <<def_reachable,reachable>> from
|
||||
another if we can reach the one from the other by a <<def_chain,chain>>
|
||||
that follows <<def_tag,tags>> to whatever they tag,
|
||||
<<def_commit_object,commits>> to their parents or trees, and
|
||||
<<def_tree_object,trees>> to the trees or <<def_blob_object,blobs>>
|
||||
that they contain.
|
||||
|
||||
rebase::
|
||||
To clean a branch by starting from the head of the main line of

changes from that branch.
|
||||
[[def_rebase]]rebase::
|
||||

a particular object. These may be stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/`.
|
||||
[[def_ref]]ref::
|
||||
A 40-byte hex representation of a <<def_SHA1,SHA1>> or a name that
|
||||
denotes a particular <<def_object,object>>. These may be stored in
|
||||
`$GIT_DIR/refs/`.
|
||||
|
||||
refspec::
|
||||
A refspec is used by fetch and push to describe the mapping
|
||||
between remote ref and local ref. They are combined with
|
||||
a colon in the format <src>:<dst>, preceded by an optional
|
||||
plus sign, +. For example:
|
||||
`git fetch $URL refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin`
|
||||
means "grab the master branch head from the $URL and store
|
||||
it as my origin branch head".
|
||||
And `git push $URL refs/heads/master:refs/heads/to-upstream`
|
||||
means "publish my master branch head as to-upstream branch
|
||||
at $URL". See also gitlink:git-push[1]
|
||||
[[def_refspec]]refspec::
|
||||
A <<def_refspec,refspec>> is used by <<def_fetch,fetch>> and
|
||||
<<def_push,push>> to describe the mapping between remote <<def_ref,ref>>
|
||||
and local <<def_ref,ref>>. They are combined with a colon in the format
|
||||
<src>:<dst>, preceded by an optional plus sign, +. For example: `git
|
||||
fetch $URL refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin` means
|
||||
"grab the master <<def_branch,branch>> <<def_head,head>>
|
||||
from the $URL and store it as my origin
|
||||
<<def_branch,branch>> <<def_head,head>>". And `git <<def_push,push>>
|
||||
$URL refs/heads/master:refs/heads/to-upstream` means
|
||||
"publish my master <<def_branch,branch>>
|
||||
<<def_head,head>> as to-upstream <<def_branch,branch>> at $URL". See
|

repository::
|
||||
A collection of refs together with an object database containing
|
||||

|
||||
database>> containing all objects which are <<def_reachable,reachable>>

porcelains. A <<def_repository,repository>> can share an
|
||||
<<def_object_database,object database>> with other repositories.
|

|
||||
the object database. It is referenced by a commit object.
|
||||
[[def_revision]]revision::
|
||||

|
||||
[[def_SHA1]]SHA1::
|
||||
Synonym for <<def_object_name,object name>>.
|
||||
|
||||
shallow repository::
|
||||
A shallow repository has an incomplete history some of
|
||||
whose commits have parents cauterized away (in other
|
||||
words, git is told to pretend that these commits do not
|
||||
have the parents, even though they are recorded in the
|
||||
commit object). This is sometimes useful when you are
|
||||
interested only in the recent history of a project even
|
||||
though the real history recorded in the upstream is
|
||||
much larger. A shallow repository is created by giving
|
||||
`--depth` option to gitlink:git-clone[1], and its
|
||||
history can be later deepened with gitlink:git-fetch[1].
|
||||
[[def_shallow_repository]]shallow repository::
|
||||
A <<def_shallow_repository,shallow repository>> has an incomplete
|
||||
history some of whose commits have parents cauterized away (in other
|
||||
words, git is told to pretend that these commits do not have the
|
||||
parents, even though they are recorded in the <<def_commit_object,commit
|
||||
object>>). This is sometimes useful when you are interested only in the
|
||||
recent history of a project even though the real history recorded in the
|
||||
upstream is much larger. A <<def_shallow_repository,shallow repository>>
|

is created by giving the `--depth` option to gitlink:git-clone[1], and
|
||||
its history can be later deepened with gitlink:git-fetch[1].
|
||||
|
||||
symref::
|
||||
Symbolic reference: instead of containing the SHA1 id itself, it
|
||||
is of the format 'ref: refs/some/thing' and when referenced, it
|
||||
recursively dereferences to this reference. 'HEAD' is a prime
|
||||
example of a symref. Symbolic references are manipulated with
|
||||
the gitlink:git-symbolic-ref[1] command.
|
||||
[[def_symref]]symref::
|
||||
Symbolic reference: instead of containing the <<def_SHA1,SHA1>> id
|
||||
itself, it is of the format 'ref: refs/some/thing' and when
|
||||
referenced, it recursively dereferences to this reference. 'HEAD' is a
|
||||
prime example of a <<def_symref,symref>>. Symbolic references are
|
||||
manipulated with the gitlink:git-symbolic-ref[1] command.
|
||||
|
||||
topic branch::
|
||||
A regular git branch that is used by a developer to
|
||||
identify a conceptual line of development. Since branches

have several small branches that each contain very well
|
||||
defined concepts or small incremental yet related changes.
|
||||
[[def_tag]]tag::
|
||||
A <<def_ref,ref>> pointing to a <<def_tag,tag>> or
|
||||
<<def_commit_object,commit object>>. In contrast to a <<def_head,head>>,
|
||||
a tag is not changed by a <<def_commit,commit>>. Tags (not
|
||||
<<def_tag_object,tag objects>>) are stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags/`. A
|
||||
git tag has nothing to do with a Lisp tag (which would be
|
||||
called an <<def_object_type,object type>> in git's context). A
|
||||
tag is most typically used to mark a particular point in the
|
||||
<<def_commit,commit>> ancestry <<def_chain,chain>>.
|
||||
|
||||
tracking branch::

||||
A regular git branch that is used to follow changes from

|
||||
right-hand-side ref in a Pull: refspec.

<<def_commit_object,commit object>>. It can also contain a (PGP)
|
||||
signature, in which case it is called a "signed <<def_tag_object,tag
|
||||
object>>".
|
||||
|
||||
tree object::
|
||||
An object containing a list of file names and modes along with refs
|
||||
to the associated blob and/or tree objects. A tree is equivalent
|
||||
to a directory.
|
||||
[[def_topic_branch]]topic branch::
|
||||
A regular git <<def_branch,branch>> that is used by a developer to
|
||||
identify a conceptual line of development. Since branches are very easy
|
||||
and inexpensive, it is often desirable to have several small branches
|
||||
that each contain very well defined concepts or small incremental yet
|
||||
related changes.
|
||||
|
||||
tree::
|
||||
Either a working tree, or a tree object together with the
|

[[def_tracking_branch]]tracking branch::
|
||||
A regular git <<def_branch,branch>> that is used to follow changes from
|
||||
another <<def_repository,repository>>. A <<def_tracking_branch,tracking
|
||||
branch>> should not contain direct modifications or have local commits
|
||||
made to it. A <<def_tracking_branch,tracking branch>> can usually be
|
||||
identified as the right-hand-side <<def_ref,ref>> in a Pull:
|
||||
<<def_refspec,refspec>>.
|
||||
|
||||
tree-ish::
|
||||
A ref pointing to either a commit object, a tree object, or a
|
||||
tag object pointing to a tag or commit or tree object.
|
||||
[[def_tree]]tree::
|
||||
Either a <<def_working_tree,working tree>>, or a <<def_tree_object,tree
|
||||
object>> together with the dependent blob and <<def_tree,tree>> objects
|
||||
(i.e. a stored representation of a <<def_working_tree,working tree>>).
|
||||
|
||||
tag object::
|
||||
An object containing a ref pointing to another object, which can
|
||||
contain a message just like a commit object. It can also
|
||||
contain a (PGP) signature, in which case it is called a "signed
|
||||
tag object".
|
||||
[[def_tree_object]]tree object::
|
||||
An <<def_object,object>> containing a list of file names and modes along
|
||||
with refs to the associated blob and/or tree objects. A
|
||||
<<def_tree,tree>> is equivalent to a <<def_directory,directory>>.
|
||||
|
||||
tag::
|
||||
A ref pointing to a tag or commit object. In contrast to a head,
|
||||
a tag is not changed by a commit. Tags (not tag objects) are
|
||||
stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags/`. A git tag has nothing to do with
|
||||
a Lisp tag (which is called object type in git's context).
|
||||
A tag is most typically used to mark a particular point in the
|
||||
commit ancestry chain.
|
||||
[[def_tree-ish]]tree-ish::
|
||||
A <<def_ref,ref>> pointing to either a <<def_commit_object,commit
|
||||
object>>, a <<def_tree_object,tree object>>, or a <<def_tag_object,tag

object>> pointing to a <<def_tag,tag>> or <<def_commit,commit>> or
|
||||
<<def_tree_object,tree object>>.

|
||||
i.e. you can work in your working tree without using git at all.

||||
[[def_unreachable_object]]unreachable object::
|
||||
An <<def_object,object>> which is not <<def_reachable,reachable>> from a

Understanding history: What is a branch?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Though we've been using the word "branch" to mean a kind of reference
|
||||
to a particular commit, the word branch is also commonly used to
|
||||
refer to the line of commits leading up to that point. In the
|
||||
example above, git may think of the branch named "A" as just a
|
||||
pointer to one particular commit, but we may refer informally to the
|
||||
line of three commits leading up to that point as all being part of
|
||||
When we need to be precise, we will use the word "branch" to mean a line
|
||||
of development, and "branch head" (or just "head") to mean a reference
|
||||
to the most recent commit on a branch. In the example above, the branch
|
||||
head named "A" is a pointer to one particular commit, but we refer to
|
||||
the line of three commits leading up to that point as all being part of
|
||||
"branch A".
|
||||
|
||||
If we need to make it clear that we're just talking about the most
|
||||
recent commit on the branch, we may refer to that commit as the
|
||||
"head" of the branch.
|
||||
However, when no confusion will result, we often just use the term
|
||||
"branch" both for branches and for branch heads.

GIT web Interface (gitweb) Installation
|
||||
=======================================
|
||||
|
||||
First you have to generate gitweb.cgi from gitweb.perl using
|
||||
"make gitweb/gitweb.cgi", then copy appropriate files (gitweb.cgi,
|
||||
gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png) to their destination.
|
||||
For example if git was (or is) installed with /usr prefix, you can do
|
||||
|
||||
$ make prefix=/usr gitweb/gitweb.cgi ;# as yourself
|
||||
# cp gitweb/git* /var/www/cgi-bin/ ;# as root
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively you can use autoconf generated ./configure script to
|
||||
set up path to git binaries (via config.mak.autogen), so you can write
|
||||
instead
|
||||
|
||||
$ make configure ;# as yourself
|
||||
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr ;# as yourself
|
||||
$ make gitweb/gitweb.cgi ;# as yourself
|
||||
# cp gitweb/git* /var/www/cgi-bin/ ;# as root
|
||||
|
||||
The above example assumes that your web server is configured to run
|
||||
[executable] files in /var/www/cgi-bin/ as server scripts (as CGI
|
||||
scripts).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Build time configuration
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
See also "How to configure gitweb for your local system" in README
|
||||
file for gitweb (in gitweb/README).
|
||||
|
||||
- There are many configuration variables which affects building of
|
||||
gitweb.cgi; see "default configuration for gitweb" section in main
|
||||
(top dir) Makefile, and instructions for building gitweb/gitweb.cgi
|
||||
target.
|
||||
|
||||
One of most important is where to find git wrapper binary. Gitweb
|
||||
tries to find git wrapper at $(bindir)/git, so you have to set $bindir
|
||||
when building gitweb.cgi, or $prefix from which $bindir is derived. If
|
||||
you build and install gitweb together with the rest of git suite,
|
||||
there should be no problems. Otherwise, if git was for example
|
||||
installed from a binary package, you have to set $prefix (or $bindir)
|
||||
accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||
- Another important issue is where are git repositories you want to make
|
||||
available to gitweb. By default gitweb search for repositories under
|
||||
/pub/git; if you want to have projects somewhere else, like /home/git,
|
||||
use GITWEB_PROJECTROOT build configuration variable.
|
||||
|
||||
By default all git repositories under projectroot are visible and
|
||||
available to gitweb. List of projects is generated by default by
|
||||
scanning the projectroot directory for git repositories. This can be
|
||||
changed (configured) as described in "Gitweb repositories" section
|
||||
below.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that gitweb deals directly with object database, and does not
|
||||
need working directory; the name of the project is the name of its
|
||||
repository object database, usually projectname.git for bare
|
||||
repositories. If you want to provide gitweb access to non-bare (live)
|
||||
repository, you can make projectname.git symbolic link under
|
||||
projectroot linking to projectname/.git (but it is just
|
||||
a suggestion).
|
||||
|
||||
- You can control where gitweb tries to find its main CSS style file,
|
||||
its favicon and logo with GITWEB_CSS, GITWEB_FAVICON and GITWEB_LOGO
|
||||
build configuration variables. By default gitweb tries to find them
|
||||
in the same directory as gitweb.cgi script.
|
||||
|
||||
Build example
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
- To install gitweb to /var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb/ when git wrapper
|
||||
is installed at /usr/local/bin/git and the repositories (projects)
|
||||
we want to display are under /home/local/scm, you can do
|
||||
|
||||
make GITWEB_PROJECTROOT="/home/local/scm" \
|
||||
GITWEB_CSS="/gitweb/gitweb.css" \
|
||||
GITWEB_LOGO="/gitweb/git-logo.png" \
|
||||
GITWEB_FAVICON="/gitweb/git-favicon.png" \
|
||||
bindir=/usr/local/bin \
|
||||
gitweb/gitweb.cgi
|
||||
|
||||
cp -fv ~/git/gitweb/gitweb.{cgi,css} \
|
||||
~/git/gitweb/git-{favicon,logo}.png \
|
||||
/var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb/
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Gitweb config file
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
See also "Runtime gitweb configuration" section in README file
|
||||
for gitweb (in gitweb/README).
|
||||
|
||||
- You can configure gitweb further using gitweb configuration file;
|
||||
by default it is file named gitweb_config.perl in the same place as
|
||||
gitweb.cgi script. You can control default place for config file
|
||||
using GITWEB_CONFIG build configuration variable, and you can set it
|
||||
using GITWEB_CONFIG environmental variable.
|
||||
|
||||
- Gitweb config file is [fragment] of perl code. You can set variables
|
||||
using "our $variable = value"; text from "#" character until the end
|
||||
of a line is ignored. See perlsyn(1) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
See the top of gitweb.perl file for examples of customizable options.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Gitweb repositories:
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- By default all git repositories under projectroot are visible and
|
||||
available to gitweb. List of projects is generated by default by
|
||||
scanning the projectroot directory for git repositories (for object
|
||||
databases to be more exact).
|
||||
|
||||
You can provide pre-generated list of [visible] repositories,
|
||||
together with information about their owners (the project ownership
|
||||
is taken from owner of repository directory otherwise), by setting
|
||||
GITWEB_LIST build configuration variable (or $projects_list variable
|
||||
in gitweb config file) to point to a plain file.
|
||||
|
||||
Each line of projects list file should consist of url-encoded path
|
||||
to project repository database (relative to projectroot) separated
|
||||
by space from url-encoded project owner; spaces in both project path
|
||||
and project owner have to be encoded as either '%20' or '+'.
|
||||
|
||||
You can generate projects list index file using project_index action
|
||||
(the 'TXT' link on projects list page) directly from gitweb.
|
||||
|
||||
- By default even if project is not visible on projects list page, you
|
||||
can view it nevertheless by hand-crafting gitweb URL. You can set
|
||||
GITWEB_STRICT_EXPORT build configuration variable (or $strict_export
|
||||
variable in gitweb config file) to only allow viewing of
|
||||
repositories also shown on the overview page.
|
||||
|
||||
- Alternatively, you can configure gitweb to only list and allow
|
||||
viewing of the explicitly exported repositories, via
|
||||
GITWEB_EXPORT_OK build configuration variable (or $export_ok
|
||||
variable in gitweb config file). If it evaluates to true, gitweb
|
||||
show repository only if this file exists in its object database
|
||||
(if directory has the magic file $export_ok).
