NAME
cg-commit - commit changes in the working tree to the repositorySYNOPSIS
cg-commit [-m MESSAGE]... [-e] [-c COMMIT_ID] [OTHER_OPTIONS] [FILE]... [< MESSAGE]
DESCRIPTION
Commits your changes to the GIT repository. Accepts the commit message from stdin. If the commit message is not modified the commit will be aborted.
Note that you can undo a commit by the gitm[blue]1m[][1] command, but that is possible only under special circumstances. See the CAVEATS section of its documentation.
Commit author
Each commit has two user identification fields - commit author and committer. By default, it is recorded that you authored the commit, but it is considered a good practice to change this to the actual author of the change if you are merely applying someone else's patch. It is always recorded that you were the patch committer.
The commit author is determined by examining various sources in this order:
- •
--author (see OPTIONS)
- •
GIT_AUTHOR_* (see ENVIRONMENT)
- • Configuration file: you can insert this to .git/config or ~/.gitconfig:
-
-
[user] name = "Your Name" email = "your@email.address.xz"
-
- • System information: The author name defaults to the GECOS field of your /etc/passwd entry, which is taken almost verbatim. The author email defaults to your username@hostname.domainname (but you should change this to the real email address you use if it is any different).
OPTIONS
--amend
- Amend the last commit with some additional stuff; this will use your current working copy as the new commit "contents" and otherwise have similar effects as -c HEAD; the new commit will replace the current HEAD - which means that you should read gitm[blue]1m[][1] caveats section. If you want to adjust the log message or authorship information, use it with combination with the -e option.
--author AUTHOR_STRING
- Set the commit author information according to the argument instead of your environment, .git/author, or user information.
The AUTHOR_STRING format is Author Name <author@email> Date. The author name and date is optional, only the email is required to be always present (e.g. --author "<pasky@ucw.cz>" will use the current date and the real name set for your system account (usually in the GECOS field), but a different email address).
-c COMMIT_ID
- Copy the commit metainformation from a given commit ID (that is, only the author information and the commit message - NOT committer information and NOT the commit diff). This option is typically used when replaying commits from one lineage or repository to another - see also cg-patch -C (if you want to apply the diffs as well).
-C
- Make gitm[blue]1m[][2] ignore the cache and just commit the thing as-is. Note, this is used internally by Cogito when merging, and it is also useful when you are performing the initial commit manually. This option does not make sense when files are given on the command line.
-m MESSAGE
- Specify the commit message, which is used instead of starting up an editor (if the input is not stdin, the input is appended after all the -m messages). Multiple -m parameters are appended to a single commit message, each as separate paragraph.
-M FILE
- Include commit message from a file (this has the same effect as if you would cat it to stdin).
-e
- Force the editor to be brought up even when -m parameters were passed to gitm[blue]1m[][2].
-E
- Force the editor to be brought up and do the commit even if the default commit message is not changed.
-f
- Force the commit even when there's "nothing to commit", that is the tree is the same as the last time you committed, no changes happened. This also forces the commit even if committing is blocked for some reason.
-N
- Don't add the files to the object database, just update the caches and the commit information. This is for special purposes when you might not actually have any object database. This option is normally not interesting.
--no-hooks
- Do not call any commit hooks during the commit.
-p, --review
- Show changes being committed as a patch appended to the commit message buffer. Changes made to the patch will be reapplied before completing the commit. This implies -e.
-q
- Be quiet in case there's "nothing to commit", and silently exit returning success. In a sense, this is the opposite to -f.
-s, --signoff[=STRING]
- Add Signed-off-by line at the end of the commit message. Optionally, specify the exact name and email to sign off with by passing: --signoff="Author Name <user@example.com>".
-h, --help
- Print usage summary.
--long-help
- Print user manual. The same as found in gitm[blue]1m[][2].
FILES
$GIT_DIR/commit-template
- If the file exists it will be used as a template when creating the commit message. The template file makes it possible to automatically add Signed-off-by line to the log message.
$GIT_DIR/hooks/commit-post
- If the file exists and is executable it will be executed upon completion of the commit. The script is passed two arguments. The first argument is the commit ID and the second is the branchname. A sample commit-post script might look like:
-
-
#!/bin/sh id=$1 branch=$2 echo "Committed $id in $branch" | mail user@host
-
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See the Commit author section above for details about the name/email/date environment variables meaning and default values.
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME
- Author's name.
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL
- Author's e-mail address.
GIT_AUTHOR_DATE
- Date, useful when applying patches submitted over e-mail.
GIT_COMMITTER_NAME
- Committer's name.
GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL
- Committer's e-mail address. The recommended policy is not to change this, though - it may not be necessarily a valid e-mail address, but its purpose is more to identify the actual user and machine where the commit was done. However, it is obviously ultimately a policy decision of a particular project to determine whether this should be a real e-mail or not.
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
- This is the date of the commit itself. It should be never overridden, unless you know you absolutely need to override it (to ensure the commit gets the same ID as another or when migrating history around).
EDITOR
- The editor used for entering revision log information.
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The following GIT configuration file variables are recognized:
user.author, user.email
- User credentials. See the "Commit author" section for details.
cogito.hooks.commit.post.allmerged
- If set to "true" and you are committing a merge, the post-hook will be called for all the merged commits in sequence (the earliest first). Otherwise, the hook will be called only for the merge commit.
