2018-10-23doc: clarify boundaries of 'git worktree list --porcelain'Libravatar Andreas Heiduk1-2/+2
Defined delimiters for 'git worktree list --porcelain' make the format easier to parse in scripts. For example sed -n '/^worktree ID$/,/^$/p' extracts only the information for the worktree 'ID'. The format did not changed since [1], only the guaranty is added.

2018-06-11checkout & worktree: introduce checkout.defaultRemoteLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+9
Introduce a checkout.defaultRemote setting which can be used to designate a remote to prefer (via checkout.defaultRemote=origin) when running e.g. "git checkout master" to mean origin/master, even though there's other remotes that have the "master" branch. I want this because it's very handy to use this workflow to checkout a repository and create a topic branch, then get back to a "master" as retrieved from upstream: ( cd /tmp && rm -rf tbdiff && git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git && cd tbdiff && git branch -m topic && git checkout master ) That will output: Branch 'master' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'origin'. Switched to a new branch 'master' But as soon as a new remote is added (e.g. just to inspect something from someone else) the DWIMery goes away: ( cd /tmp && rm -rf tbdiff && git clone git@github.com:trast/tbdiff.git && cd tbdiff && git branch -m topic && git remote add avar git@github.com:avar/tbdiff.git && git fetch avar && git checkout master ) Will output (without the advice output added earlier in this series): error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git. The new checkout.defaultRemote config allows me to say that whenever that ambiguity comes up I'd like to prefer "origin", and it'll still work as though the only remote I had was "origin". Also adjust the advice.checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName message to mention this new config setting to the user, the full output on my git.git is now (the last paragraph is new): $ ./git --exec-path=$PWD checkout master error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git. hint: 'master' matched more than one remote tracking branch. hint: We found 26 remotes with a reference that matched. So we fell back hint: on trying to resolve the argument as a path, but failed there too! hint: hint: If you meant to check out a remote tracking branch on, e.g. 'origin', hint: you can do so by fully qualifying the name with the --track option: hint: hint: git checkout --track origin/<name> hint: hint: If you'd like to always have checkouts of an ambiguous <name> prefer hint: one remote, e.g. the 'origin' remote, consider setting hint: checkout.defaultRemote=origin in your config. I considered splitting this into checkout.defaultRemote and worktree.defaultRemote, but it's probably less confusing to break our own rules that anything shared between config should live in core.* than have two config settings, and I couldn't come up with a short name under core.* that made sense (core.defaultRemoteForCheckout?). See also 70c9ac2f19 ("DWIM "git checkout frotz" to "git checkout -b frotz origin/frotz"", 2009-10-18) which introduced this DWIM feature to begin with, and 4e85333197 ("worktree: make add <path> <branch> dwim", 2017-11-26) which added it to git-worktree.

2018-04-30worktree: teach "add" to check out existing branchesLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-2/+7
Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the basename of the path by default. If a branch with that name already exists, the command refuses to do anything, unless the '--force' option is given. However we can do a little better than that, and check the branch out if it is not checked out anywhere else. This will help users who just want to check an existing branch out into a new worktree, and save a few keystrokes. As the current behaviour is to simply 'die()' when a branch with the name of the basename of the path already exists, there are no backwards compatibility worries here. We will still 'die()' if the branch is checked out in another worktree, unless the --force flag is passed.

When 4e85333197 (worktree: make add <path> <branch> dwim, 2017-11-26) added an example command in a literal code block, it neglected to insert a mandatory "+" line before the block. This omission resulted in both the literal code block and the (existing) paragraph following the block to be outdented, even though they should be indented under the 'add' sub-command along with the rest of the text pertaining to that command. Furthermore, the mandatory "+" line separating the code block from the following text got rendered as a leading character on the line ("+ If <commit-ish>...") rather than being treated as a formatting directive.

2018-02-12worktree remove: new commandLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-9/+12
This command allows to delete a worktree. Like 'move' you cannot remove the main worktree, or one with submodules inside [1]. For deleting $GIT_WORK_TREE, Untracked files or any staged entries are considered precious and therefore prevent removal by default. Ignored files are not precious. When it comes to deleting $GIT_DIR, there's no "clean" check because there should not be any valuable data in there, except: - HEAD reflog. There is nothing we can do about this until somebody steps up and implements the ref graveyard. - Detached HEAD. Technically it can still be recovered. Although it may be nice to warn about orphan commits like 'git checkout' does. [1] We do 'git status' with --ignore-submodules=all for safety anyway. But this needs a closer look by submodule people before we can allow deletion. For example, if a submodule is totally clean, but its repo not absorbed to the main .git dir, then deleting worktree also deletes the valuable .submodule repo too.

This is a bandage patch to make sure "worktree move" don't break people's worktrees by accident. When .git file update code is in place, this validate_no_submodules() could be removed.

2018-02-12worktree move: new commandLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+7
This command allows to relocate linked worktrees. Main worktree cannot (yet) be moved. There are two options to move the main worktree, but both have complications, so it's not implemented yet. Anyway the options are: - convert the main worktree to a linked one and move it away, leave the git repository where it is. The repo essentially becomes bare after this move. - move the repository with the main worktree. The tricky part is make sure all file descriptors to the repository are closed, or it may fail on Windows.

2017-12-06worktree: add --guess-remote flag to add subcommandLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-0/+7
Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the basename of the <path>, that matches the HEAD of whichever worktree we were on when calling "git worktree add <path>". It's sometimes useful to have 'git worktree add <path> behave more like the dwim machinery in 'git checkout <new-branch>', i.e. check if the new branch name, derived from the basename of the <path>, uniquely matches the branch name of a remote-tracking branch, and if so check out that branch and set the upstream to the remote-tracking branch.

Currently 'git worktree add <path> <branch>', errors out when 'branch' is not a local branch. It has no additional dwim'ing features that one might expect. Make it behave more like 'git checkout <branch>' when the branch doesn't exist locally, but a remote tracking branch uniquely matches the desired branch name, i.e. create a new branch from the remote tracking branch and set the upstream to the remote tracking branch. As 'git worktree add' currently just dies in this situation, there are no backwards compatibility worries when introducing this feature.

As explained in the document. This option has an advantage over the command sequence "git worktree add && git worktree lock": there will be no gap that somebody can accidentally "prune" the new worktree (or soon, explicitly "worktree remove" it). "worktree add" does keep a lock on while it's preparing the worktree. If --lock is specified, this lock remains after the worktree is created.

"git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as "locked" by creating a file in a known location.

Worse, sometimes it can write relative path to "gitdir" file, which will not work (e.g. "git worktree list" will display the worktree's location incorrectly) Instead of fixing this, we step back a bit.
