t7004, t7030: fix here-doc syntax errors Jan Palus noticed that some here-doc are spelled incorrectly, resulting the entire remainder of the test snippet being slurped into the "expect" file as if it were data, e.g. in this sequence cat >expect <<EOF && ... expectation ... EOF git $cmd_being_tested >actual && test_cmp expect actual the last command of the test is "cat" that sends everything to 'expect' and succeeds. Fixing these issues in t7004 and t7030 reveals that "git tag -v" and "git verify-tag" with their --format option do not work as the test was expecting originally. Instead of showing both valid tags and tags with incorrect signatures on their output, tags that do not pass verification are omitted from the output. Another breakage that is uncovered is that these tests must be restricted to environment where gpg is available. Arguably, that is a safer behaviour, and because the format specifiers like %(tag) do not have a way to show if the signature verifies correctly, the command with the --format option cannot be used to get a list of tags annotated with their signature validity anyway. For now, let's fix the here-doc syntax, update the expectation to match the reality, and update the test prerequisite. Maybe later when we extend the --format language available to "git tag -v" and "git verify-tag" to include things like "%(gpg:status)", we may want to change the behaviour so that piping a list of tag names into xargs git verify-tag --format='%(gpg:status) %(tag)' becomes a good way to produce such a list, but that is a separate topic.

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 http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.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):
