SZEDER Gábor e8cb023433 completion: let 'for-each-ref' strip the remote name from remote branches
The code listing unique remote branches for 'git checkout's tracking
DWIMery uses a shell parameter expansion in a loop iterating over each
listed ref to remove the remote's name from the remote branches, i.e.
the leading path component from the short ref.  When listing refs from
a configured remote repository, '| sed s///' is used for the same
purpose.

Let 'git for-each-ref' strip one more leading path component from the
refs, i.e. use the format 'refname:strip=3' instead of '=2', making
that parameter expansion and 'sed' execution unnecessary.

This speeds up refs completion for 'git checkout'.  Uniquely
completing a branch for 'git checkout maste<TAB>' in a repo with 100k
remote branches, all packed, best of five:

  On Linux, near the beginning of this series, for reference:

    $ time __git_complete_refs --cur=maste --track

    real    0m8.185s
    user    0m6.896s
    sys     0m1.616s

  Before this patch:

    real    0m2.714s
    user    0m2.344s
    sys     0m0.436s

  After:

    real    0m1.993s
    user    0m1.740s
    sys     0m0.304s

  On Windows, near the beginning:

    real    1m8.421s
    user    0m7.591s
    sys     0m3.557s

  Before this patch:

  After:

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

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 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.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.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>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of 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). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

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.

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):

  • 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
