Dangling objects are not a problem. At worst they may take up a little
extra disk space. They can sometimes provide a last-resort method for
-recovering lost work--see <<dangling-objects>> for details. However, if
-you wish, you can remove them with linkgit:git-prune[1] or the `--prune`
-option to linkgit:git-gc[1]:
-
--------------------------------------------------
-$ git gc --prune
--------------------------------------------------
-
-This may be time-consuming. Unlike most other git operations (including
-git-gc when run without any options), it is not safe to prune while
-other git operations are in progress in the same repository.
-
-If linkgit:git-fsck[1] complains about sha1 mismatches or missing
-objects, you may have a much more serious problem; your best option is
-probably restoring from backups. See
-<<recovering-from-repository-corruption>> for a detailed discussion.

Recovering lost changes

Advertise the URL of proj.git. Anybody else should then be able to
clone or pull from that URL, for example with a command line like:
solution is to retry the push after first updating your work by either a
pull or a fetch followed by a rebase; see the

Setting up a shared repository
Another way to collaborate is by using a model similar to that
commonly used in CVS, where several developers with special rights
all push to and pull from a single shared repository. See
-link:cvs-migration.html[git for CVS users] for instructions on how to
+linkgit:gitcvs-migration[7][git for CVS users] for instructions on how to
set this up.
However, while there is nothing wrong with git's support for shared
If you are interested in more details of the revision walking process,
just have a look at the first implementation of `cmd_log()`; call
-`git-show v1.3.0~155^2~4` and scroll down to that function (note that you
+`git-show v1.3.0{tilde}155^2{tilde}4` and scroll down to that function (note that you
no longer need to call `setup_pager()` directly).
Nowadays, `git log` is a builtin, which means that it is _contained_ in the
