commit-graph: don't write commit-graph when disabled The core.commitGraph config setting can be set to 'false' to prevent parsing commits from the commit-graph file(s). This causes an issue when trying to write with "--split" which needs to distinguish between commits that are in the existing commit-graph layers and commits that are not. The existing mechanism uses parse_commit() and follows by checking if there is a 'graph_pos' that shows the commit was parsed from the commit-graph file. When core.commitGraph=false, we do not parse the commits from the commit-graph and 'graph_pos' indicates that no commits are in the existing file. The --split logic moves forward creating a new layer on top that holds all reachable commits, then possibly merges down into those layers, resulting in duplicate commits. The previous change makes that merging process more robust to such a situation in case it happens in the written commit-graph data. The easy answer here is to avoid writing a commit-graph if reading the commit-graph is disabled. Since the resulting commit-graph will would not be read by subsequent Git processes. This is more natural than forcing core.commitGraph to be true for the 'write' process.

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):
