2011-12-27git-p4: document and test submit optionsLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-2/+6
Clarify there is a -M option, but no -C. These are both configurable through variables. Explain that the allowSubmit variable takes a comma-separated list of branch names. Catch earlier an invalid branch name given as an argument to "git p4 clone". Test option --origin, variable allowSubmit, and explicit master branch name.

2011-12-27git-p4: test and document --use-client-specLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-1/+4
The depot path is required, even with this option. Make sure git-p4 fails and exits with non-zero. Contents in the specified depot path will be rearranged according to the client spec. Test this and add a note in the docs. Leave an XXX suggesting that this is somewhat confusing behavior that might be good to fix later. Function stripRepoPath() looks at self.useClientSpec. Make sure this is set both for command-line option --use-client-spec and for configuration variable git-p4.useClientSpec. Test this.

2011-12-27git-p4: document and test clone --branchLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-1/+9
Clone with --branch will not checkout HEAD, unless the branch happens to be called the default refs/remotes/p4/master. The --branch option is most useful with sync; give an example of that. Signed-off-by: Pete Wyckoff <pw@padd.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-12-27git-p4: test cloning with two dirs, clarify docLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-2/+9
Document how git-p4 currently works when specifying multiple depot paths: 1. No branches or directories are named. 2. Conflicting files are silently ignored---the last change wins. 2. Option --destination is required, else the last path is construed to be a directory. 3. Revision specifiers must be the same on all paths for them to take effect. Test this behavior.

2011-11-22revert: introduce --abort to cancel a failed cherry-pickLibravatar Jonathan Nieder3-0/+5
After running some ill-advised command like "git cherry-pick HEAD..linux-next", the bewildered novice may want to return to more familiar territory. Introduce a "git cherry-pick --abort" command that rolls back the entire cherry-pick sequence and places the repository back on solid ground. Just like "git merge --abort", this internally uses "git reset --merge", so local changes not involved in the conflict resolution are preserved.

2011-11-22revert: rename --reset option to --quitLibravatar Jonathan Nieder3-7/+7
The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name. Change it now, while we still have the time. The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit. Mnemonic: this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using --- we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state. The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact. We might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though. Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit) instead of --reset. While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions of these operations in "-h" output. Before: --reset forget the current operation --continue continue the current operation After: --quit end revert or cherry-pick sequence --continue resume revert or cherry-pick sequence Noticed-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
