t1092: add tests for status/add and sparse files Before moving to update 'git status' and 'git add' to work with sparse indexes, add an explicit test that ensures the sparse-index works the same as a normal sparse-checkout when the worktree contains directories and files outside of the sparse cone. Specifically, 'folder1/a' is a file in our test repo, but 'folder1' is not in the sparse cone. When 'folder1/a' is modified, the file is not shown as modified and adding it will fail. This is new behavior as of a20f704 (add: warn when asked to update SKIP_WORKTREE entries, 2021-04-08). Before that change, these adds would be silently ignored. Untracked files are fine: adding new files both with 'git add .' and 'git add folder1/' works just as in a full checkout. This may not be entirely desirable, but we are not intending to change behavior at the moment, only document it. A future change could alter the behavior to be more sensible, and this test could be modified to satisfy the new expected behavior.

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-<commandname>.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://lore.kernel.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):
