Extend the regex syntax of value_regex so that prepending an exclamation mark means non-match: [core] quetzal = "Dodo" for Brainf*ck quetzal = "T. Rex" for Malbolge quetzal = "cat" You can match the third line with git-config-set --get quetzal '! for ' Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

===============

|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-config-set - Set options in .git/config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-config-set' name [value [value_regex]]
|
|
'git-config-set' --replace-all name [value [value_regex]]
|
|
'git-config-set' --get name [value_regex]
|
|
'git-config-set' --get-all name [value_regex]
|
|
'git-config-set' --unset name [value_regex]
|
|
'git-config-set' --unset-all name [value_regex]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
You can query/set/replace/unset options with this command. The name is
|
|
actually the section and the key separated by a dot, and the value will be
|
|
escaped.
|
|
|
|
If you want to set/unset an option which can occor on multiple lines, you
|
|
should provide a POSIX regex for the value. If you want to handle the lines
|
|
*not* matching the regex, just prepend a single exlamation mark in front
|
|
(see EXAMPLES).
|
|
|
|
This command will fail if
|
|
|
|
. .git/config is invalid,
|
|
. .git/config can not be written to,
|
|
. no section was provided,
|
|
. the section or key is invalid,
|
|
. you try to unset an option which does not exist, or
|
|
. you try to unset/set an option for which multiple lines match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
--replace-all::
|
|
Default behaviour is to replace at most one line. This replaces
|
|
all lines matching the key (and optionally the value_regex)
|
|
|
|
--get::
|
|
Get the value for a given key (optionally filtered by a regex
|
|
matching the value).
|
|
|
|
--get-all::
|
|
Like get, but does not fail if the number of values for the key
|
|
is not exactly one.
|
|
|
|
--unset::
|
|
Remove the line matching the key from .git/config.
|
|
|
|
--unset-all::
|
|
Remove all matching lines from .git/config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Given a .git/config like this:
|
|
|
|
#
|
|
# This is the config file, and
|
|
# a '#' or ';' character indicates
|
|
# a comment
|
|
#
|
|
|
|
; core variables
|
|
[core]
|
|
; Don't trust file modes
|
|
filemode = false
|
|
|
|
; Our diff algorithm
|
|
[diff]
|
|
external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u"
|
|
renames = true
|
|
|
|
; Proxy settings
|
|
[proxy]
|
|
command="ssh" for "ssh://kernel.org/"
|
|
command="proxy-command" for kernel.org
|
|
command="myprotocol-command" for "my://"
|
|
command=default-proxy ; for all the rest
|
|
|
|
you can set the filemode to true with
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set core.filemode true
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The hypothetic proxy command entries actually have a postfix to discern
|
|
to what URL they apply. Here is how to change the entry for kernel.org
|
|
to "ssh".
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set proxy.command '"ssh" for kernel.org' 'for kernel.org$'
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
This makes sure that only the key/value pair for kernel.org is replaced.
|
|
|
|
To delete the entry for renames, do
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set --unset diff.renames
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to delete an entry for a multivar (like proxy.command above),
|
|
you have to provide a regex matching the value of exactly one line.
|
|
|
|
To query the value for a given key, do
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set --get core.filemode
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set core.filemode
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
or, to query a multivar:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set --get proxy.command "for kernel.org$"
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to know all the values for a multivar, do:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set --get-all proxy.command
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
If you like to live dangerous, you can replace *all* proxy.commands by a
|
|
new one with
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set --replace-all proxy.command ssh
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
However, if you really only want to replace the line for the default proxy,
|
|
i.e. the one without a "for ..." postfix, do something like this:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set proxy.command ssh '! for '
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
To actually match only values with an exclamation mark, you have to
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
% git config-set section.key value '[!]'
|
|
------------
