2014-05-16request-pull: resurrect for-linus -> tags/for-linus DWIMLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-1/+13
Older versions of Git before v1.7.10 did not DWIM $ git pull $URL for-linus to the tag "tags/for-linus" and the users were required to say $ git pull $URL tags/for-linus instead. Because newer versions of Git works either way, request-pull used to show tags/for-linus when asked $ git request-pull origin/master $URL for-linus The recent updates broke this and in the output we see "for-linus" without the "tags/" prefix. As v1.7.10 is more than 2 years old, this should matter very little in practice, but resurrecting it is very simple. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-03-13request-pull: documentation updatesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+49
The original description talked only about what it does. Instead, start it with the purpose of the command, i.e. what it is used for, and then mention what it does to achieve that goal. Clarify what <start>, <url> and <end> means in the context of the overall purpose of the command. Describe the extended syntax of <end> parameter that is used when the local branch name is different from the branch name at the repository the changes are published.

2014-02-25request-pull: resurrect "pretty refname" featureLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-2/+10
When asking to fetch/pull a branch whose name is B or a tag whose name is T, we used to show the command to run as: git pull $URL B git pull $URL tags/T even when B and T were spelled in a more qualified way in order to disambiguate, e.g. heads/B or refs/tags/T, but the recent update lost this feature. Resurrect it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-02-25request-pull: test updatesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+8
This illustrates behaviour changes that result from the recent change by Linus. Most show good changes, but there may be some usability regressions: - The command continues to fail when the user forgot to push out before running the command, but the wording of the message has been slightly changed. - The command no longer guesses when asked to request the commit at the HEAD be pulled after pushing it to a branch 'for-upstream', even when that branch points at the correct commit. The user must ask the command with the new "master:for-upstream" syntax. The new behaviour needs to be documented in any case, but we need to agree what the new behaviour should be before doing so first. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-02-25request-pull: pick up tag message as beforeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+8
The previous two steps were meant to stop updating the explicit refname the user gave to the command to a different ref that points at it. Most notably, we no longer substitute a branch name the user used with a name of the tag that points at the commit at the tip of the branch (it still can be done with "local-branch:remote-tag"). However, they also lost the code that included the message in a tag when the user _did_ ask the tag to be pulled. Resurrect it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-02-25request-pull: allow "local:remote" to specify names on both endsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-21/+29
This allows a user to say that a local branch has a different name on the remote server, using the same syntax that "git push" uses to create that situation. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-02-25request-pull: more strictly match local/remote branchesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-67/+43
The current 'request-pull' will try to find matching commit on the given remote, and rewrite the "please pull" line to match that remote ref. That may be very helpful if your local tree doesn't match the layout of the remote branches, but for the common case it's been a recurring disaster, when "request-pull" is done against a delayed remote update, and it rewrites the target branch randomly to some other branch name that happens to have the same expected SHA1 (or more commonly, leaves it blank). To avoid that recurring problem, this changes "git request-pull" so that it matches the ref name to be pulled against the *local* repository, and then warns if the remote repository does not have that exact same branch or tag name and content. This means that git request-pull will never rewrite the ref-name you gave it. If the local branch name is "xyzzy", that is the only branch name that request-pull will ask the other side to fetch. If the remote has that branch under a different name, that's your problem and git request-pull will not try to fix it up (but git request-pull will warn about the fact that no exact matching branch is found, and you can edit the end result to then have the remote name you want if it doesn't match your local one). The new "find local ref" code will also complain loudly if you give an ambiguous refname (eg you have both a tag and a branch with that same name, and you don't specify "heads/name" or "tags/name").

2014-01-23Makefile: Fix compilation of Windows resource fileLibravatar Johannes Sixt2-3/+3
If the git version number consists of less than three period separated numbers, then the Windows resource file compilation issues a syntax error: $ touch git.rc $ make V=1 git.res GIT_VERSION = 1.9.rc0 windres -O coff \ -DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=rc0 \ -DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.rc0\\\"" git.rc -o git.res C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error make: *** [git.res] Error 1 $ Note that -DPATCH=rc0. The values passed via -DMAJOR=, -DMINOR=, and -DPATCH= are used in FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION statements, which expect up to four numeric values. These version numbers are intended for machine consumption. They are typically inspected by installers to decide whether a file to be installed is newer than one that exists on the system, but are not used for much else. We can be pretty certain that there are no tools that look at these version numbers, not even the installer of Git for Windows does. Therefore, to fix the syntax error, fill in only the first two numbers, which we are guaranteed to find in Git version numbers.

Since 918dbf58, git-gui crashes if started with Tk 8.4. The reason is that tk < 8.5 does not support -stretch option for panedwindow. Without the option it's not possible to properly expand the right half - the commit area is expanded, while desired behavior is to expand the diff area.

Commit 48059e4 (pull: use merge-base --fork-point when appropriate, 2013-12-08) incorrectly assumes that get_remote_merge_branch will either yield a non-empty string or return an error, but there are circumstances where it will yield an empty string. The previous code then invoked git-rev-list with no arguments, which results in an error suppressed by redirecting stderr to /dev/null. Now we invoke git-merge-base with an empty branch name, which also results in an error. Suppress this in the same way.

2014-01-17git-svn: workaround for a bug in svn serf backendLibravatar Roman Kagan1-2/+8
Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() -- doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and the memory reused. One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an invalid path, with a message svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion `svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed. This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same. * [ew: fixed in Subversion r1553376 as noted by Jonathan Nieder] Cc: Benjamin Pabst <benjamin.pabst85@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Roman Kagan <rkagan@mail.ru>
