5d1faf8791 Move --pretty options into Documentation/pretty-formats.txt
Asciidoc-include it into the manuals for programs that use the
--pretty command-line option, for consistency among the docs.

This describes all the pretty-formats currently listed in the cmit_fmt
enum in commit.h, and also briefly describes the presence and format
of the 'Merge: ' line in some pretty formats.

There's a hedge that limiting your view of history can affect what
goes in the Merge: line, and that --abbrev/--no-abbrev do nothing to
the 'raw' format.

bd95fcd345 revision traversal: --author, --committer, and --grep.
This adds three options to setup_revisions(), which lets you
filter resulting commits by the author name, the committer name
and the log message with regexp.

42cabc341c Teach rev-list an option to read revs from the standard input.
When --stdin option is given, in addition to the <rev>s listed
on the command line, the command can read one rev parameter per
line from the standard input.  The list of revs ends at the
first empty line or EOF.

Note that you still have to give all the flags from the command
line; only rev arguments (including A..B, A...B, and A^@ notations)
can be give from the standard input.

0d2c9d67d9 Add '...' operator for revisions
'A...B' is a shortcut for 'A B --not $(git-merge-base --all A B)'.
This XOR-like operation is called symmetric difference in set
theory.

The symbol '...' has been chosen because it's rather similar to the
existing '..' operator and the somewhat more natural caret ('^') is
already taken.

765ac8ec46 Rip out merge-order and make "git log <paths>..." work again.
Well, assuming breaking --merge-order is fine, here's a patch (on top of
the other ones) that makes

	git log <filename>

actually work, as far as I can tell.

I didn't add the logic for --before/--after flags, but that should be
pretty trivial, and is independent of this anyway.

df8baa42fe [PATCH] Random documentation fixes
The fixes focuses on improving the HTML output. Most noteworthy:

 - Fix the Makefile to also make various *.html files depend on
   included files.

 - Consistently use 'NOTE: ...' instead of '[ ... ]' for additional
   info.

 - Fix ending '::' for description lists in OPTION section etc.

 - Fix paragraphs in description lists ending up as preformated text.

 - Always use listingblocks (preformatted text wrapped in lines with -----)
   for examples that span empty lines, so they are put in only one HTML
   block.

 - Use '1.' instead of '(1)' for numbered lists.

 - Fix linking to other GIT docs.

 - git-rev-list.txt: put option descriptions in an OPTION section.

ed0a84883e [PATCH] PATCH Documentation/git-rev-list.txt typo fix
An earlier commit causes a mismatch in <emphasis> and <superscript>
tags, one way of fixing it is having no more than one caret symbol per
line, which is the only solution I found in the asciidoc
documentation. Ugly, but it works.

17ebe977d7 [PATCH] Tidy up some rev-list-related stuff
This patch tidies up the git-rev-list documentation and epoch.c, which
are in severe clash with the unwritten coding style now, and quite
unreadable.

It also fixes up compile failures with older compilers due to variable
declarations after code.

The patch mostly wraps lines before or on the 80th column, removes
plenty of superfluous empty lines and changes comments from // to /* */.

a3437b8c26 [PATCH] Modify git-rev-list to linearise the commit history in merge order.
This patch linearises the GIT commit history graph into merge order
which is defined by invariants specified in Documentation/git-rev-list.txt.

The linearisation produced by this patch is superior in an objective sense
to that produced by the existing git-rev-list implementation in that
the linearisation produced is guaranteed to have the minimum number of
discontinuities, where a discontinuity is defined as an adjacent pair of
commits in the output list which are not related in a direct child-parent
relationship.

With this patch a graph like this:

	a4 ---
	| \   \
	|  b4 |
	|/ |  |
	a3 |  |
	|  |  |
	a2 |  |
	|  |  c3
	|  |  |
	|  |  c2
	|  b3 |
	|  | /|
	|  b2 |
	|  |  c1
	|  | /
	|  b1
	a1 |
	|  |
	a0 |
	| /
	root

Sorts like this:

	= a4
	| c3
	| c2
	| c1
	^ b4
	| b3
	| b2
	| b1
	^ a3
	| a2
	| a1
	| a0
	= root

Instead of this:

	= a4
	| c3
	^ b4
	| a3
	^ c2
	^ b3
	^ a2
	^ b2
	^ c1
	^ a1
	^ b1
	^ a0
	= root

A test script, t/t6000-rev-list.sh, includes a test which demonstrates
that the linearisation produced by --merge-order has less discontinuities
than the linearisation produced by git-rev-list without the --merge-order
flag specified. To see this, do the following:

	cd t
	./t6000-rev-list.sh
	cd trash
	cat actual-default-order
	cat actual-merge-order

The existing behaviour of git-rev-list is preserved, by default. To obtain
the modified behaviour, specify --merge-order or --merge-order --show-breaks
on the command line.

This version of the patch has been tested on the git repository and also on the linux-2.6
repository and has reasonable performance on both - ~50-100% slower than the original algorithm.

This version of the patch has incorporated a functional equivalent of the Linus' output limiting
algorithm into the merge-order algorithm itself. This operates per the notes associated
with Linus' commit 337cb3fb8d.

This version has incorporated Linus' feedback regarding proposed changes to rev-list.c.
(see: [PATCH] Factor out filtering in rev-list.c)

This version has improved the way sort_first_epoch marks commits as uninteresting.

For more details about this change, refer to Documentation/git-rev-list.txt
and http://blackcubes.dyndns.org/epoch/.
