[RFC/PATCH] Add builtin git-last-modified.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a plumbing command which can be used by gitweb.  It will scan
a list of commits and/or refs and return the time in seconds for the
youngest commit.  This value can then be used to generate and check
the Last-Modified and Is-Modified-Since HTTP headers.

The following two commands lines are similar:

$ git for-each-ref --count=1 --sort=-committerdate '--format=%(committerdate)' refs/heads
$ git last-modified --branches

The last-modified version is a bit faster (5-10%).

I'm not 100% sure how this command and if this command should be used
by gitweb.  But I'll post the patch anyway for comments.

Robert

+================
+
+NAME
+----
+git-last-modified - Get the last modified time in seconds
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-last-modified' [ \--all ]
+		    [ \--branches ]
+		    [ \--tags ]
+		    [ \--remotes ]
+		    <commmit>...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+Get the last modified time in seconds for the youngest commit object

+header of the commit object, ignoring the timezone.  The time is
+formatted as an ASCII decimal number and is the number of seconds
+since epoch.
+
+This is a plumbing command used by gitweb to generate and check the
+Last-Modified and Is-Modified-Since HTTP headers.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+--all::
+	Search all refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs`.
+
+--branches::
+	Search branch refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads`.
+
+--tags::
+	Search tag refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/tags`.
+
+--remotes::
+	Search remote refs found in `$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes`.
