git reset HEAD^

directory untouched, but effectively un-doing the top-most commit. You
might want to do this if you realize after you committed that you made a
mistake that you want to fix up: reset your HEAD back to its previous
state, fix up the working directory and re-do the commit.

If you want to totally un-do the commit (and reset your working directory
to that point too), you'd first use "git reset HEAD^" to reset to the
parent, and then do a "git checkout -f" to reset the working directory

 - When one or more <ref>s are specified:

   - a single token <ref> (i.e. no colon) must be a pattern that

     than one local refs.  The matching ref is pushed to the
     remote end under the same name.

   - <src>:<dst> can have different cases.  <src> is first tried
     as the tail-matching pattern for refs/* path.

     - If more than one matches are found, it is an error.

     - If one match is found, <dst> must either match no remote
       ref and start with "refs/", or match exactly one remote
       ref.  That remote ref is updated with the sha1 value
       obtained from the <src> sha1.

     - If no match is found, it is given to get_extended_sha1();

Here is the name mapping rules for refs.

* If there is no ref mapping on the command line:

 - otherwise, it is equivalent to specifying <ref> ":" <ref> for
   all the refs that exist on both sides.

* <name> is just a shorthand for <name> ":" <name>

* <src> ":" <dst>

  push ref that matches <src> to ref that matches <dst>.

  - It is an error if <src> does not match exactly one of local
    refs.

  - It is an error if <dst> matches more than one remote refs.

  - If <dst> does not match any remote refs, either

    - it has to start with "refs/"; <dst> is used as the
      destination literally in this case.

    - <src> == <dst> and the ref that matched the <src> must not
      exist in the set of remote refs; the ref matched <src>
      locally is used as the name of the destination.

For example,

  - "git-send-pack --all <remote>" works exactly as before;

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master:upstream" pushes local master
    to remote ref that matches "upstream".  If there is no such
    ref, it is an error.

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master:refs/heads/upstream" pushes
    local master to remote refs/heads/upstream, even when
    refs/heads/upstream does not exist.

  - "git-send-pack <remote> master" into an empty remote
    repository pushes the local ref/heads/master to the remote

[PATCH] Making it easier to find which change introduced a bug

This adds a new "git bisect" command.

 - "git bisect start"
start bisection search.

 - "git bisect bad <rev>"
mark some version known-bad (if no arguments, then current HEAD)

 - "git bisect good <revs>..."
mark some versions known-good (if no arguments, then current HEAD)

 - "git bisect reset <branch>"
done with bisection search and go back to your work (if
no arguments, then "master").

The way you use it is:

git bisect start
git bisect bad # Current version is bad
git bisect good v2.6.13-rc2 # v2.6.13-rc2 was the last version
# tested that was good

When you give at least one bad and one good versions, it will
bisect the revision tree and say something like:

Bisecting: 675 revisions left to test after this

and check out the state in the middle. Now, compile that kernel, and boot
it. Now, let's say that this booted kernel works fine, then just do

git bisect good # this one is good

which will now say

Bisecting: 337 revisions left to test after this

and you continue along, compiling that one, testing it, and depending on
whether it is good or bad, you say "git bisect good" or "git bisect bad",
and ask for the next bisection.

Until you have no more left, and you'll have been left with the first bad
kernel rev in "refs/bisect/bad".

Oh, and then after you want to reset to the original head, do a

git bisect reset

to get back to the master branch, instead of being in one of the bisection
branches ("git bisect start" will do that for you too, actually: it will
reset the bisection state, and before it does that it checks that you're
not using some old bisection branch).

Not really any harder than doing series of "quilt push" and "quilt pop",
now is it?

[jc: This patch is a rework based on what Linus posted to the
     list.  The changes are:

  - The original introduced four separate commands, which was
    three too many, so I merged them into one with subcommands.

  - Since the next thing you would want to do after telling it
    "bad" and "good" is always to bisect, this version does it
    automatically for you.

  - I think the termination condition was wrong.  The original
    version checked if the set of revisions reachable from next
    bisection but not rechable from any of the known good ones
    is empty, but if the current bisection was a bad one, this
    would not terminate, so I changed it to terminate it when
    the set becomes a singleton or empty.

  - Removed the use of shell array variable.
