"git name-rev" assigned a phony "far in the future" date to tips of
refs that are not pointing at tag objects, and favored names based
on a ref with the oldest date. This made it almost impossible for
an unannotated tags and branches to be counted as a viable base,
which was especially problematic when the command is run with the
"--tags" option. If an unannotated tag that points at an ancient
commit and an annotated tag that points at a much newer commit
reaches the commit that is being named, the old unannotated tag was
ignored.
Update the "taggerdate" field of the rev-name structure, which is
initialized from the tip of ref, to have the committer date if the
object at the tip of ref is a commit, not a tag, so that we can
optionally take it into account when doing "is this name better?"
comparison logic.
When "name-rev" is run without the "--tags" option, the general
expectation is still to name the commit based on a tag if possible,
but use non-tag refs as fallback, and tiebreak among these non-tag
refs by favoring names with shorter hops from the tip. The use of a
phony "far in the future" date in the original code was an effective
way to ensure this expectation is held: a non-tag tip gets the same
"far in the future" timestamp, giving precedence to tags, and among
non-tag tips, names with shorter hops are preferred over longer
hops, without taking the "taggerdate" into account. As we are
taking over the "taggerdate" field to store the committer date for
tips with commits:
(1) keep the original logic when comparing names based on two refs
both of which are from refs/tags/;
(2) favoring a name based on a ref in refs/tags/ hierarchy over
a ref outside the hierarchy;
(3) between two names based on a ref both outside refs/tags/, give
precedence to a name with shorter hops and use "taggerdate"
only to tie-break.
A change to t4202 is a natural consequence. The test creates a
commit on a branch "side" and points at it with an unannotated tag
"refs/tags/side-2". The original code couldn't decide which one to
favor at all, and gave a name based on a branch (simply because
refs/heads/side sorts earlier than refs/tags/side-2). Because the
updated logic is taught to favor refs in refs/tags/ hierarchy, the
the test is updated to expect to see tags/side-2 instead.
[mjg: open-coded the comparisons in is_better_name(), dropping a
helper macro used in the original]

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 https://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
