2007-02-05bash: Support --add completion to git-config.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+1
We've recently added --add as an argument to git-config, but I missed putting it into the earlier round of git-config updates within the bash completion. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-02-05Show an example of deleting commits with git-rebase.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+25
This particular use of git-rebase to remove a single commit or a range of commits from the history of a branch recently came up on the mailing list. Documenting the example should help other users arrive at the same solution on their own. It also was not obvious to the newcomer that git-rebase is able to accept any commit for --onto <newbase> and <upstream>. We should at least minimally document this, as much of the language in git-rebase's manpage refers to 'branch' rather than 'committish'. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-02-04Revert "Allow branch.*.merge to talk about remote tracking branches."Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+2
This reverts commit 80c797764a6b6a373f0f1f47d7f56b0d950418a9. Back when I committed this, it seemed to be a good idea. People who always use remote tracking branches can optionally use the local name they happen to use to specify what to merge, which meant that I did not have to teach them why we use the name at the remote side every time they are confused. But allowing it seems to break other people's scripts. The real solution is not to allow more ways to express the same thing, but to educate people to use the right syntax.

2007-02-04git-clone --reference: saner handling of borrowed symrefs.Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-2/+67
When using --reference to borrow objects from a neighbouring repository while cloning, we copy the entire set of refs under temporary "refs/reference-tmp/refs" space and set up the object alternates. However, a textual symref copied this way would not point at the right place, and causes later steps to emit error messages (which is harmless but still alarming). This is most visible when using a clone created with the separate-remote layout as a reference, because such a repository would have refs/remotes/origin/HEAD with 'ref: refs/remotes/origin/master' as its contents. Although we do not create symbolic-link based refs anymore, they have the same problem because they are always supposed to be relative to refs/ hierarchy (we dereference by hand, so it only is good for HEAD and nothing else). In either case, the solution is simply to remove them after copying under refs/reference-tmp; if a symref points at a true ref, that true ref itself is enough to ensure that objects reachable from it do not needlessly get fetched.

2007-02-04bash: Support unique completion when possible.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-99/+91
Because our use of -o nospace prevents bash from adding a trailing space when a completion is unique and has been fully completed, we need to perform this addition on our own. This (large) change converts all existing uses of compgen to our wrapper __gitcomp which attempts to handle this by tacking a trailing space onto the end of each offered option.

2007-02-04bash: Support unique completion on git-config.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-38/+82
In many cases we know a completion will be unique, but we've disabled bash's automatic space addition (-o nospace) so we need to do it ourselves when necessary. This change adds additional support for new configuration options added in 1.5.0, as well as some extended completion support for the color.* family of options. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-02-04bash: Classify more commends out of completion.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+17

2007-02-04bash: Add space after unique command name is completed.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-6/+20
Because we use the nospace option for our completion function for the main 'git' wrapper bash won't automatically add a space after a unique completion has been made by the user. This has been pointed out in the past by Linus Torvalds as an undesired behavior. I agree. We have to use the nospace option to ensure path completion for a command such as `git show` works properly, but that breaks the common case of getting the space for a unique completion. So now we set IFS=$'\n' (linefeed) and add a trailing space to every possible completion option. This causes bash to insert the space when the completion is unique. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-02-04bash: Complete long options to git-add.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+16
The new --interactive mode of git-add can be very useful, so users will probably want to have completion for it. Likewise the new git-add--interactive executable is actually a plumbing command. Its invoked by `git add --interactive` and is not intended to be invoked directly by the user. Therefore we should hide it from the list of available Git commands. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-02-04bash: Classify cat-file and reflog as plumbing.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-20/+3
Now that git-show is capable of displaying any file content from any revision and is the approved Porcelain-ish level method of doing so, cat-file should no longer be classified as a user-level utility by the bash completion package. I'm also classifying the new git-reflog command as plumbing for the time being as there are no subcommands which are really useful to the end-user. git-gc already invokes `git reflog expire --all`, which makes it rather unnecessary for the user to invoke it directly.

2007-02-04bash: Remove short option completions for branch/checkout/diff.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-3/+3
The short options (-l, -f, -d) for git-branch are rather silly to include in the completion generation as these options must be fully typed out by the user and most users already know what the options are anyway, so including them in the suggested completions does not offer huge value.

2007-02-03Let git-checkout always drop any detached headLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-15/+2
We used to refuse leaving a detached HEAD when it wasn't matching an existing ref so not to lose any commit that might have been performed while not on any branch (unless -f was provided). But this protection was completely bogus since it was still possible to move to HEAD^ while still remaining detached but losing the last commit anyway if there was one. Now that we have a proper reflog for HEAD it is best to simply remove that bogus (and admitedly annoying) protection and simply display the last HEAD position instead. If one wants to recover a lost detached state then it can be retrieved from the HEAD reflog. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-02-03Keep untracked files not involved in a merge.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce2-1/+43
My earlier fix (8371234e) to delete renamed tracked files from the working directory also caused merge-recursive to delete untracked files that were in the working directory. The problem here is merge-recursive is deleting the working directory file without regard for which branch it was associated with. What we really want to do during a merge is to only delete files that were renamed by the branch we are merging into the current branch, and that are still tracked by the current branch. These files definitely don't belong in the working directory anymore. Anything else is either a merge conflict (already handled in other parts of the code) or a file that is untracked by the current branch and thus is not even participating in the merge. Its this latter class that must be left alone. For this fix to work we are now assuming that the first non-base argument passed to git-merge-recursive always corresponds to the working directory. This is already true for all in-tree callers of merge-recursive. This assumption is also supported by the long time usage message of "<base> ... -- <head> <remote>", where "<head>" is implied to be HEAD, which is generally assumed to be the current tree-ish.

2007-02-03Why is it bad to rewind a branch that has already been pushed out?Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
I was reading the tutorial and noticed that we say this: Also, don't use "git reset" on a publicly-visible branch that other developers pull from, as git will be confused by history that disappears in this way. I do not think this is a good explanation. For example, if we do this: (1) I build a series and push it out. ---o---o---o---j (2) Alice clones from me, and builds two commits on top of it. ---o---o---o---j---a---a (3) I rewind one and build a few, and push them out. ---o---o---o...j \ h---h---h---h (4) Alice pulls from me again: ---o---o---o---j---a---a---* \ / h---h---h---h Contrary to the description, git will happily have Alice merge between the two branches, and never gets confused. Maybe I did not want to have 'j' because it was an incomplete solution to some problem, and Alice may have fixed it up with her changes, while I abandoned that approach I started with 'j', and worked on something completely unrelated in the four 'h' commits. In such a case, the merge Alice would make would be very sensible, and after she makes the merge if I pull from her, the world will be perfect. I started something with 'j' and dropped the ball, Alice picked it up and perfected it while I went on to work on something else with 'h'. This would be a perfect example of distributed parallel collaboration. There is nothing confused about it. The case the rewinding becomes problematic is if the work done in 'h' tries to solve the same problem as 'j' tried to solve in a different way. Then the merge forced on Alice would make her pick between my previous attempt with her fixups (j+a) and my second attempt (h). If 'a' commits were to fix up what 'j' started, presumably Alice already studied and knows enough about the problem so she should be able to make an informed decision to pick between what 'j+a' and 'h' do. A lot worse case is if Alice's work is not at all related to what 'j' wanted to do (she did not mean to pick up from where I left off -- she just wanted to work on something different). Then she would not be familiar enough with what 'j' and 'h' tried to achieve, and I'd be forcing her to pick between the two. Of course if she can make the right decision, then again that is a perfect example of distributed collaboration, but that does not change the fact that I'd be forcing her to clean up my mess.

2007-02-03fix reflog entries for "git-branch"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+8
Even when -l is not given from the command line, the repository may have the configuration variable core.logallrefupdates set, or an old-timer might have done ": >.git/logs/refs/heads/new" before running "git branch new". In these cases, the code gave an uninitialized msg[] from the stack to be written out as the reflog message. This also passes a different message when '-f' option is used. Saying "git branch -f branch some-commit" is a moral equilvalent of doing "git-reset some-commit" while on the branch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-02-01Don't find objects in packs which aren't available anymore.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+12
Matthias Lederhofer identified a race condition where a Git reader process was able to locate an object in a packed_git index, but was then preempted while a `git repack -a -d` ran and completed. By the time the reader was able to seek in the packfile to get the object data, the packfile no longer existed on disk. In this particular case the reader process did not attempt to open the packfile before it was deleted, so it did not already have the pack_fd field popuplated. With the packfile itself gone, there was no way for the reader to open it and fetch the data. I'm fixing the race condition by teaching find_pack_entry to ignore a packed_git whose packfile is not currently open and which cannot be opened. If none of the currently known packs can supply the object, we will return 0 and the caller will decide the object is not available. If this is the first attempt at finding an object, the caller will reprepare_packed_git and try again. If it was the second attempt, the caller will typically return NULL back, and an error message about a missing object will be reported. This patch does not address the situation of a reader which is being starved out by a tight sequence of `git repack -a -d` runs. In this particular case the reader will try twice, probably fail both times, and declare the object in question cannot be found. As it is highly unlikely that a real world `git repack -a -d` can complete faster than a reader can open a packfile, so I don't think this is a huge concern. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
