Revision c7cb333f60db9b8313da75c2075a3619202e905d authored by Junio C Hamano on 12 March 2014, 20:43:51 UTC, committed by Junio C Hamano on 12 March 2014, 21:08:05 UTC
When we show unmerged paths, we had an artificial 20 columns floor for the width of labels (e.g. "both deleted:") shown next to the pathnames. Depending on the locale, this may result in a label that is too wide when all the label strings are way shorter than 20 columns, or no-op when a label string is longer than 20 columns. Just drop the artificial floor. The screen real estate is better utilized this way when all the strings are shorter. Adjust the tests to this change. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

NAME
----
git-credential-cache - Helper to temporarily store passwords in memory
SYNOPSIS
--------
-----------------------------
git config credential.helper 'cache [options]'
-----------------------------
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This command caches credentials in memory for use by future Git
programs. The stored credentials never touch the disk, and are forgotten
after a configurable timeout. The cache is accessible over a Unix
domain socket, restricted to the current user by filesystem permissions.
You probably don't want to invoke this command directly; it is meant to
be used as a credential helper by other parts of Git. See
linkgit:gitcredentials[7] or `EXAMPLES` below.
OPTIONS
-------
--timeout <seconds>::
Number of seconds to cache credentials (default: 900).
--socket <path>::
Use `<path>` to contact a running cache daemon (or start a new
cache daemon if one is not started). Defaults to
`~/.git-credential-cache/socket`. If your home directory is on a
network-mounted filesystem, you may need to change this to a
local filesystem.
CONTROLLING THE DAEMON
----------------------
If you would like the daemon to exit early, forgetting all cached
credentials before their timeout, you can issue an `exit` action:
--------------------------------------
git credential-cache exit
--------------------------------------
EXAMPLES
--------
The point of this helper is to reduce the number of times you must type
your username or password. For example:
------------------------------------
$ git config credential.helper cache
$ git push http://example.com/repo.git
Username: <type your username>
Password: <type your password>
[work for 5 more minutes]
$ git push http://example.com/repo.git
[your credentials are used automatically]
------------------------------------
You can provide options via the credential.helper configuration
variable (this example drops the cache time to 5 minutes):
-------------------------------------------------------
$ git config credential.helper 'cache --timeout=300'
-------------------------------------------------------
