Merge branch 'phase-out-reset-stdin'
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git
reset`. Those patches were overridden by a different set of options in
the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.

We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to
pass lots of pathspecs to Git, and these applications will need to be
adjusted.

Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.

For more details, see the 'pathspec' entry in linkgit:gitglossary[7].

--stdin::
DEPRECATED (use `--pathspec-from-file=-` instead): Instead of taking
list of paths from the command line, read list of paths from the
standard input. Paths are separated by LF (i.e. one path per line) by
default.

-z::
DEPRECATED (use `--pathspec-file-nul` instead): Only meaningful with
`--stdin`; paths are separated with NUL character instead of LF.
