Makefile: add coverage-prove target Sometimes there are test failures in the 'pu' branch. This is somewhat expected for a branch that takes the very latest topics under development, and those sometimes have semantic conflicts that only show up during test runs. This also can happen when running the test suite with different GIT_TEST_* environment variables that interact in unexpected ways This causes a problem for the test coverage reports, as the typical 'make coverage-test coverage-report' run halts at the first failed test. If that test is early in the suite, then many valuable tests are not exercising the code and the coverage report becomes noisy with false positives. Add a new 'coverage-prove' target to the Makefile, modeled after the 'coverage-test' target. This compiles the source using the coverage flags, then runs the test suite using the 'prove' tool. Since the coverage machinery is not thread-safe, enforce that the tests are run in sequence by appending '-j1' to GIT_PROVE_OPTS.

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.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
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):
