The current documentation states that servers typically listen on port
465 and calls this "ssmtp". While it's true that many mail servers use
port 465 for SSL smtp, this is non-standard, and hails from the days
before smtp and submission TLS support, that arrived in RFC2487 and
RFC3207. Port 465 is actually assigned by IANA for unrelated purposes,
and is mostly still used by mail servers today only to support Outlook
Express.
In any case, this patch helps the documentation better reflect both
standards and reality, while still helpfully mentioning ports numbers
that a user may wish to specify.

When using git fast-export and git fast-import to rewrite the history
of a repository with large binary files, almost all of the time is
spent dealing with blobs. This is extremely inefficient if all we want
to do is rewrite the commits and tree structure. --no-data skips the
output of blobs and writes SHA-1s instead of marks, which provides a

By default, we remove leading [bracketed] [strings] from the Subject:
header when coming up with the summary of the patch. This is because
there are mailing lists etc that add their own headers to the subject, and
they know they can add things in brackets. The most obvious example is the
Linux kernel security list. Their emails look like
Subject: [Security] [patch] random: make get_random_int() more random
and other people mangle Subject: themselves in a similar way, e.g.:
Subject: [PATCH -rc] [BUGFIX] x86: fix kernel_trap_sp()
Subject: [BUGFIX][PATCH] fix bad page removal from LRU (Was Re: [RFC][PATCH] ..
even though "fix" is more than enough cue to mark it as a [BUGFIX].
Some projects however want to keep these bracketed strings. With this
option, we remove only [bracketed strings that contain word PATCH], so we
will turn things like these
[PATCH] [mailinfo] -b ...
[PATCH v2] [mailinfo] -b ...
[PATCH (v2) 1/4] [mailinfo] -b ...
into
[mailinfo] -b ...

Add a test showing that 'git repack' throws away grafted-away parents
Conflicts:

When you have grafts that pretend that a given commit has different
parents than the ones recorded in the commit object, it is dangerous
to let 'git repack' remove those hidden parents, as you can easily
remove the graft and end up with a broken repository.
So let's play it safe and keep those parent objects and everything
that is reachable by them, in addition to the grafted parents.
As this behavior can only be triggered by git pack-objects, and as that
command handles duplicate parents gracefully, we do not bother to cull
duplicated parents that may result by using both true and grafted
parents.

'git svn dcommit' takes an optional revision argument, but the meaning
of it was rather scary. It completely ignored the current state of
the HEAD, only looking at the revisions between SVN and $rev. If HEAD
was attached to $branch, the branch lost all commits $rev..$branch in
the process.
Considering that 'git svn dcommit HEAD^' has the intuitive meaning
"dcommit all changes on my branch except the last one", we change the
meaning of the revision argument. git-svn temporarily checks out $rev
for its work, meaning that
* if a branch is specified, that branch (_not_ the HEAD) is rebased as
part of the dcommit,
* if some other revision is specified, as in the example, all work
happens on a detached HEAD and no branch is affected.

'git stash pop' supports the '--index' option since its initial
implementation (bd56ff54, git-stash: add new 'pop' subcommand,

Moreover, both the usage shown by 'git stash -h' and the synopsis

First, this patch corrects the usage and the synopsis section.
Second, the patch moves the description of the '--index' option to the
'git stash pop' section in the documentation, and refers to it from
the 'git stash apply' section. This way it follows the intentions of

'git submodule update --merge' merges the commit referenced by the
superproject into your local branch, instead of checking it out on
a detached HEAD.
As evidenced by the addition of "git submodule update --rebase", it
is useful to provide alternatives to the default 'checkout' behaviour
of "git submodule update". One such alternative is, when updating a
submodule to a new commit, to merge that commit into the current
local branch in that submodule. This is useful in workflows where
you want to update your submodule from its upstream, but you cannot
use --rebase, because you have downstream people working on top of
your submodule branch, and you don't want to disrupt their work.

The addition of "submodule.<name>.rebase" demonstrates the usefulness of
alternatives to the default behaviour of "git submodule update". However,
by naming the config variable "submodule.<name>.rebase", and making it a
boolean choice, we are artificially constraining future git versions that
may want to add _more_ alternatives than just "rebase".
Therefore, while "submodule.<name>.rebase" is not yet in a stable git
release, future-proof it, by changing it from
submodule.<name>.rebase = true/false
to
submodule.<name>.update = rebase/checkout
where "checkout" specifies the default behaviour of "git submodule update"
(checking out the new commit to a detached HEAD), and "rebase" specifies
the --rebase behaviour (where the current local branch in the submodule is
rebase onto the new commit). Thus .update == checkout is equivalent to
.rebase == false, and .update == rebase is equivalent to .rebase == true.
Finally, leaving .update unset is equivalent to leaving .rebase unset.
In future git versions, other alternatives to "git submodule update"
behaviour can be included by adding them to the list of allowable values
for the submodule.<name>.update variable.

cat-file with an object on the command line requires an
option to tell it what to output (type, size, pretty-print,
etc). However, the square brackets in the usage imply that
those options are not required. This patch switches them to
parentheses to indicate "required but grouped-OR" (curly
braces might also work, but this follows the convention used
already by "git stash").
While we're at it, let's change the <sha1> specifier in the
usage to <object>. That's what the documentation uses, and
it does actually use the regular object lookup.

Commit dbd0f5c (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd,
2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix.
OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue.
OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to
represent filename options within the parse options API.
This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the
option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default
value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference
is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to
parse_options() (or parse_options_start()).
Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use
OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename
parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer
extern.

To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options()
which passes the prefix to parse_options_start() which sets the prefix
member of parse_opts_ctx accordingly. If there isn't a prefix in the
calling context, passing NULL will suffice.

Add a new option, --authors-prog, to git-svn that allows a more flexible
alternative (or supplement) to --authors-file. This allows more
advanced username operations than the authors file will allow. For
example, one may look up Subversion users via LDAP, or may generate the
name and email address from the Subversion username.
Notes:
* If both --authors-name and --authors-prog are given, the former is
tried first, falling back to the later.
* The program is called once per unique SVN username, and the result is
cached.
* The command-line argument must be the path to a program, not a generic
shell command line. The absolute path to this program is taken at
startup since the git-svn script changes directory during operation.
* The option is not enabled for `git svn log'.

The sender address, as specified with the '--from' command line option,
couldn't be set in the config file. So add a new config option,
'sendemail.from', which sets it. One can use 'sendemail.<identity>.from'
as well of course, which is likely the more useful case.
The sender address would default to GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT, which is usually the
right thing, but this doesn't allow switching based on the identity
selected. It's possible to switch the SMTP server and envelope sender by
using the '--identity' option, in which case one probably wants to use a
different from address as well, but this had to be manually specified.
The documentation for 'from' is also corrected somewhat. If '--from' is
specified (or the new sendemail.from option is used) then the user isn't
prompted. The default with no '--from' option (or sendemail.from option)
is GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT first then GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT, not just
GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT.

It seems that accessing NTFS partitions with ufsd (at least on my EeePC)
has an unnerving bug: if you link() a file and unlink() it right away,
the target of the link() will have the correct size, but consist of NULs.
It seems as if the calls are simply not serialized correctly, as single-stepping
through the function move_temp_to_file() works flawlessly.
As ufsd is "Commertial software" (sic!), I cannot fix it, and have to work
around it in Git.
At the same time, it seems that this fixes msysGit issues 222 and 229 to
assume that Windows cannot handle link() && unlink().

'git submodule update --rebase' rebases your local branch on top of what
would have been checked out to a detached HEAD otherwise.
In some cases, detaching the HEAD when updating a submodule complicates
the workflow to commit to this submodule (checkout master, rebase, then
commit). For submodules that require frequent updates but infrequent
(if any) commits, a rebase can be executed directly by the git-submodule
command, ensuring that the submodules stay on their respective branches.

should go into $GIT_DIR/config, but subsequent sections do
not.

user to jump to (or be referred to) a specific section. For
a new user who does not know git well enough to recognize
the config syntax, it is not clear that those directives

Most of description for the branch creation options is
simply cut and paste from git-branch. There are two reasons
to fix this:
1. It can grow stale with respect to what's in "git
branch" (which it is now is).
2. It is not just an implementation detail, but rather the
desired mental model for the command that we are using
"git branch" here. Being explicit about that can help
the user understand what is going on.
It also makes sense to strip the branch creation options
from the synopsis, as they are making it a long,
hard-to-read line. They are still easily discovered by
reading the options list, and --track is explicitly
referenced when branch creation is described.

Now you can edit the patch as much as you like, including adding/removing

character of the hunk lines is still a space, a plus or a minus.
After you closed the editor, Git will adjust the line counts of the hunks

The --ignore-paths option to fetch is very useful for working on a subset
of a SVN repository. For proper operation, every command that causes a
fetch (explicit or implied) must include a matching --ignore-paths option.
This patch adds a persistent svn-remote.$repo_id.ignore-paths config by
promoting Fetcher::is_path_ignored to a member function and initializing
$self->{ignore_regex} in Fetcher::new. Command line --ignore-paths is
still recognized and acts in addition to the config value.

This allows manpages viewed on a tty to render inline literal

The initial implementation (pre-mailing-list) of this patch
included a conditional variant of the XSLT code in
manpage-base.xsl and use xmlto's --stringparam option to
optionally enable the functionality. It turns out that
--stringparam is broken in all versions of xmlto except for the
pre-release, SVN version. Since xmlto is a shell script the patch
to fix it is simple enough, but I instead opted to use xmlto's

Since unused parameters are silently ignored, there is no problem
if some version of docbook-xsl does not know about these

uses the parameters for alternate functionality. Since both
parameters have fairly specific names such a situation is
unlikely.

We already skip over loose refs under $GIT_DIR/refs if the name
ends with ".lock", so creating a branch named "foo.lock" will not
appear in the output of "git branch", "git for-each-ref", nor will
its commit be considered reachable by "git rev-list --all".
In the latter case this is especially evil, as it may cause
repository corruption when objects reachable only through such a
ref are deleted by "git prune".
It should be reasonably safe to deny use of ".lock" as a ref suffix.

This changes the rules for refnames to forbid:
(1) a refname that contains "@{" in it.
Some people and foreign SCM converter may have named their branches
as frotz@24 and we still want to keep supporting it.
However, "git branch frotz@{24}" is a disaster. It cannot even
checked out because "git checkout frotz@{24}" will interpret it as
"detach the HEAD at twenty-fourth reflog entry of the frotz branch".
(2) a refname that ends with a dot.
We already reject a path component that begins with a dot, primarily
to avoid ambiguous range interpretation. If we allowed ".B" as a
valid ref, it is unclear if "A...B" means "in dot-B but not in A" or
"either in A or B but not in both".
But for this to be complete, we need also to forbid "A." to avoid "in
B but not in A-dot". This was not a problem in the original range
notation, but we should have added this restriction when three-dot
notation was introduced.
Unlike "no dot at the beginning of any path component" rule, this
rule does not have to be "no dot at the end of any path component",
because you cannot abbreviate the tail end away, similar to you can
say "dot-B" to mean "refs/heads/dot-B".
For these reasons, it is not likely people created branches with these
names on purpose, but we have allowed such names to be used for quite some
time, and it is possible that people created such branches by mistake or
by accident.
To help people with branches with such unfortunate names to recover,
we still allow "branch -d 'bad.'" to delete such branches, and also allow
"branch -m bad. good" to rename them.

If a git push without any refspecs is attempted, display a warning.
The current default behavior is to push all matching refspecs, which
may come as a surprise to new users, so the warning shows how
push.default can be configured and what the possible values are.
Traditionalists who wish to keep the current behaviour are also told
how to configure this once and never see the warning again.

When "git push" is not told what refspecs to push, it pushes all matching
branches to the current remote. For some workflows this default is not
useful, and surprises new users. Some have even found that this default
behaviour is too easy to trigger by accident with unwanted consequences.
Introduce a new configuration variable "push.default" that decides what
action git push should take if no refspecs are given or implied by the
command line arguments or the current remote configuration.
Possible values are:
'nothing' : Push nothing;
'matching' : Current default behaviour, push all branches that already
exist in the current remote;
'tracking' : Push the current branch to whatever it is tracking;
'current' : Push the current branch to a branch of the same name,
i.e. HEAD.

If literal text (asciidoc `...`) can be rendered in a differently from
normal text for each output format (man, HTML), then we do not need
extra quotes or other wrapping around inline literal text segments.
config.txt
Change '`...`' to `...`. In asciidoc, the single quotes provide
emphasis, literal text should be distintive enough.
Change "`...`" to `...`. These double quotes do not work if present
in the described config value, so drop them.
git-checkout.txt
Change "`...`" to `...` or `"..."`. All instances are command line
argument examples. One "`-`" becomes `-`. Two others are involve
curly braces, so move the double quotes inside the literal region to
indicate that they might need to be quoted on the command line of
certain shells (tcsh).
git-merge.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are used to describe merge
conflict markers. The quotes should are not important.
git-rev-parse.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances are around command line
arguments where no in-shell quoting should be necessary.
gitcli.txt
Change `"..."` to `...`. All instances are around command line
examples or single command arguments. They do not semanticly belong
inside the literal text, and they are not needed outside it.
glossary-content.txt
user-manual.txt
Change "`...`" to `...`. All instances were around command lines.

Rearrange the example usage of
git filter-branch --index-filter 'git rm --cached ...'
so that --ignore-unmatch is in the main example block. People keep
stumbling over the (lack of this) option to the point where it is a
FAQ, so we would want to expose the most common usage where it stands
out.

As suggested by Junio, disallow the flags PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN and
PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION to be turned on at the same time, as a
value of an unknown option could be mistakenly classified as a
non-option, stopping the parser early. E.g.:
git cmd --known --unknown value arg0 arg1
The parser should have stopped at "arg0", but it already stops at
"value".
This patch makes parse_options() die if the two flags are used in
combination.

Add the config variable color.grep.external, which can be used to
switch on coloring of external greps. To enable auto coloring with
GNU grep, one needs to set color.grep.external to --color=always to
defeat the pager started by git grep. The value of the config
variable will be passed to the external grep only if it would
colorize internal grep's output, so automatic terminal detected
works. The default is to not pass any option, because the external
grep command could be a program without color support.
Also set the environment variables GREP_COLOR and GREP_COLORS to
pass the configured color for matches to the external grep. This
works with GNU grep; other variables could be added as needed.

Coloring matches makes them easier to spot in the output.
Add two options and two parameters: color.grep (to turn coloring on
or off), color.grep.match (to set the color of matches), --color
and --no-color (to turn coloring on or off, respectively).
The output of external greps is not changed.
This patch is based on earlier ones by Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy and
Thiago Alves.

Add the following:
- git config value blame.date that expects one of the git log date
formats (e.g. relative,local,default,iso,...);
- git blame command line option --date expects one of the git
log date formats;
- documentation in blame-options.txt;
- git blame uses the appropriate date.c functions and enums to
make sense of the date format and provide appropriate data;
git blame continues to line up the output columns by padding the date
column up to the max width of the chosen date format.
The date format for git blame without both blame.date and --date continues
to be ISO for backwards compatibility.
git annotate ignores the date format specifiers and continues to uses the
ISO format, as before.
