2020-06-10worktree: make "move" refuse to move atop missing registered worktreeLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-1/+3
"git worktree add" takes special care to avoid creating a new worktree at a location already registered to an existing worktree even if that worktree is missing (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree resides on removable media). "git worktree move", however, is not so careful when validating the destination location and will happily move the source worktree atop the location of a missing worktree. This leads to the anomalous situation of multiple worktrees being associated with the same path, which is expressly forbidden by design. For example: $ git clone foo.git $ cd foo $ git worktree add ../bar $ git worktree add ../baz $ rm -rf ../bar $ git worktree move ../baz ../bar $ git worktree list .../foo beefd00f [master] .../bar beefd00f [bar] .../bar beefd00f [baz] $ git worktree remove ../bar fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree: '.../bar' does not point back to '.git/worktrees/bar' Fix this shortcoming by enhancing "git worktree move" to perform the same additional validation of the destination directory as done by "git worktree add". While at it, add a test to verify that "git worktree move" won't move a worktree atop an existing (non-worktree) path -- a restriction which has always been in place but was never tested.

2018-10-22refs: new ref types to make per-worktree refs visible to all worktreesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+14
One of the problems with multiple worktree is accessing per-worktree refs of one worktree from another worktree. This was sort of solved by multiple ref store, where the code can open the ref store of another worktree and has access to the ref space of that worktree. The problem with this is reporting. "HEAD" in another ref space is also called "HEAD" like in the current ref space. In order to differentiate them, all the code must somehow carry the ref store around and print something like "HEAD from this ref store". But that is not feasible (or possible with a _lot_ of work). With the current design, we pass a reference around as a string (so called "refname"). Extending this design to pass a string _and_ a ref store is a nightmare, especially when handling extended SHA-1 syntax. So we do it another way. Instead of entering a separate ref space, we make refs from other worktrees available in the current ref space. So "HEAD" is always HEAD of the current worktree, but then we can have "worktrees/blah/HEAD" to denote HEAD from a worktree named "blah". This syntax coincidentally matches the underlying directory structure which makes implementation a bit easier. The main worktree has to be treated specially because well... it's special from the beginning. So HEAD from the main worktree is acccessible via the name "main-worktree/HEAD" instead of "worktrees/main/HEAD" because "main" could be just another secondary worktree. This patch also makes it possible to specify refs from one worktree in another one, e.g. git log worktrees/foo/HEAD Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-10-22worktree: add per-worktree config filesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+33
A new repo extension is added, worktreeConfig. When it is present: - Repository config reading by default includes $GIT_DIR/config _and_ $GIT_DIR/config.worktree. "config" file remains shared in multiple worktree setup. - The special treatment for core.bare and core.worktree, to stay effective only in main worktree, is gone. These config settings are supposed to be in config.worktree. This extension is most useful in multiple worktree setup because you now have an option to store per-worktree config (which is either .git/config.worktree for main worktree, or .git/worktrees/xx/config.worktree for linked ones). This extension can be used in single worktree mode, even though it's pretty much useless (but this can happen after you remove all linked worktrees and move back to single worktree). "git config" reads from both "config" and "config.worktree" by default (i.e. without either --user, --file...) when this extension is present. Default writes still go to "config", not "config.worktree". A new option --worktree is added for that (*). Since a new repo extension is introduced, existing git binaries should refuse to access to the repo (both from main and linked worktrees). So they will not misread the config file (i.e. skip the config.worktree part). They may still accidentally write to the config file anyway if they use with "git config --file <path>". This design places a bet on the assumption that the majority of config variables are shared so it is the default mode. A safer move would be default writes go to per-worktree file, so that accidental changes are isolated. (*) "git config --worktree" points back to "config" file when this extension is not present and there is only one worktree so that it works in any both single and multiple worktree setups.

2018-10-07Add a place for (not) sharing stuff between worktreesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+18
When multiple worktrees are used, we need rules to determine if something belongs to one worktree or all of them. Instead of keeping adding rules when new stuff comes (*), have a generic rule: - Inside $GIT_DIR, which is per-worktree by default, add $GIT_DIR/common which is always shared. New features that want to share stuff should put stuff under this directory. - Inside refs/, which is shared by default except refs/bisect, add refs/worktree/ which is per-worktree. We may eventually move refs/bisect to this new location and remove the exception in refs code. (*) And it may also include stuff from external commands which will have no way to modify common/per-worktree rules.

2018-08-30worktree: teach 'add' to respect --force for registered but missing pathLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-2/+6
For safety, "git worktree add <path>" will refuse to add a new worktree at <path> if <path> is already associated with a worktree entry, even if <path> is missing (for instance, has been deleted or resides on non-mounted removable media or network share). The typical way to re-create a worktree at <path> in such a situation is either to prune all "broken" entries ("git worktree prune") or to selectively remove the worktree entry manually ("git worktree remove <path>"). However, neither of these approaches ("prune" nor "remove") is especially convenient, and they may be unsuitable for scripting when a tool merely wants to re-use a worktree if it exists or create it from scratch if it doesn't (much as a tool might use "mkdir -p" to re-use or create a directory). Therefore, teach 'add' to respect --force as a convenient way to re-use a path already associated with a worktree entry if the path is non-existent. For a locked worktree, require --force to be specified twice. Signed-off-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

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.

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.

The repo essentially becomes bare after this move. - move the repository with the main worktree.

2016-07-06Merge branch 'nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+5
Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues. * nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection: worktree: simplify prefixing paths worktree: avoid 0{40}, too many zeroes, hard to read worktree.c: use is_dot_or_dotdot() git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical order worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf completion: support git-worktree
2016-05-31worktree: allow "-" short-hand for @{-1} in add commandLibravatar Jordan DE GEA1-1/+2
Since `git worktree add` uses `git checkout` when `[<branch>]` is used, and `git checkout -` is already supported, it makes sense to allow the same shortcut in `git worktree add`.

2016-05-24git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical orderLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-5/+5
This is probably not the best order. But it makes it no-brainer to know where to insert new commands. At some point we might want to reorder at least the synopsis part again, grouping commonly use subcommands together.

2016-03-29worktree: add: introduce --checkout optionLibravatar Ray Zhang1-1/+7
By adding this option which defaults to true, we can use the corresponding --no-checkout to make some customizations before the checkout, like sparse checkout, etc. Helped-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Sunshine <sunshine@sunshineco.com> Signed-off-by: Ray Zhang <zhanglei002@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-01-22worktree: stop supporting moving worktrees manuallyLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-5/+10
The current update_linked_gitdir() has a bug that can create "gitdir" file in non-multi-worktree setup. 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. The original design was probably not well thought out. For now, if the user manually moves a worktree, they have to fix up "gitdir" file manually or the worktree will get pruned.

2015-10-08worktree: add 'list' commandLibravatar Michael Rappazzo1-1/+48
'git worktree list' iterates through the worktree list, and outputs details of the worktree including the path to the worktree, the currently checked out revision and branch, and if the work tree is bare. There is also porcelain format option available. Signed-off-by: Michael Rappazzo <rappazzo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
