This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into
Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show
some
similar commands when an unknown command was encountered:
swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4
A typical output would now look like this:
$ git reabse
git: 'reabse' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.
Did you mean one of these?
rebase
merge-base
rev-parse
remote
rerere
Sorry about my negativity here..
Doesn't this confuse more than it helps? Most people do not need to
know about rerere, rev-parse or merge-base so it is very unlikely
they actually meant those. That might be an issue of tuning than
general principles, but I have my doubts. It won't hint that there
are wildly different variants of rebase, which ctually might be much
more important to know than rerere, not will it tell svn users that
git revert isn't even close to svn revert.
Completion or git gui is a much better tool for solving this isssue
All true, but most of those issues would go away if just _one_ guess,
the best guess, was shown.
Cheers,
Wincent
