Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] name-rev: deprecate --stdin in favor of --anotate-text

From: "John Cai via GitGitGadget" <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2021 06:23:39 +0000

Introduce a --anontate-text that is functionally equivalent of --stdin.
--stdin does not behave as --stdin in other subcommands, such as
pack-objects whereby it takes one argument per line. Since --stdin can be a
confusing and misleading name, the goal is to rename it to --anotate-text.

This is the first step in a process of eventually fully deprecating --stdin.
This change also adds a warning to --stdin warning that it will be removed
in the future.

See https://lore.kernel.org/git/[email-masked]/ for discussion.

changes since v1 (thanks to Junio's review):

 * s/annotate_text/annotate_stdin
 * add a commit to replace the 2048 size buffer with a strbuf and use
   strbuf_getwholeline to get lines from stdin
 * fixed formatting bugs in documentation udpates.
