2008-10-21Merge branch 'jc/maint-co-track'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
* jc/maint-co-track: Enhance hold_lock_file_for_{update,append}() API demonstrate breakage of detached checkout with symbolic link HEAD Fix "checkout --track -b newbranch" on detached HEAD Conflicts: builtin-commit.c
2008-10-17Fix "checkout --track -b newbranch" on detached HEADLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
The test to make sure that checkout fails when --track was asked for and we cannot set up tracking information in t7201 was wrong, and it turns out that the implementation for that feature itself was buggy. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-10-03builtin-commit: use reduce_heads() only when appropriateLibravatar Miklos Vajna1-0/+1
Since commit 6bb6b034 (builtin-commit: use commit_tree(), 2008-09-10), builtin-commit performs a reduce_heads() unconditionally. However, it's not always needed, and in some cases even harmful. reduce_heads() is not needed for the initial commit or for an "ordinary" commit, because they don't have any or have only one parent, respectively. reduce_heads() must be avoided when 'git commit' is run after a 'git merge --no-ff --no-commit', otherwise it will turn the non-fast-forward merge into fast-forward. For the same reason, reduce_heads() must be avoided when amending such a merge commit. To resolve this issue, 'git merge' will write info about whether fast-forward is allowed or not to $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE. Based on this info, 'git commit' will only perform reduce_heads() when it's committing a merge and fast-forward is enabled. Also add test cases to ensure that non-fast-forward merges are committed and amended properly.

2008-07-13Move MERGE_RR from .git/rr-cache/ into .git/Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
If you want to reuse the rerere cache in another repository, and set a symbolic link to it, you do not want to have the two repositories interfer with each other by accessing the _same_ MERGE_RR. For example, if you use contrib/git-new-workdir to set up a second working directory, and you have a conflict in one working directory, but commit in the other working directory first, the wrong "resolution" will be recorded. The easy solution is to move MERGE_RR out of the rr-cache/ directory, which also corresponds with the notion that rr-cache/ contains cached resolutions, not some intermediate temporary states. Noticed by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-05-11Allow tracking branches to set up rebase by default.Libravatar Dustin Sallings1-1/+21
Change cd67e4d4 introduced a new configuration parameter that told pull to automatically perform a rebase instead of a merge. This change provides a configuration option to enable this feature automatically when creating a new branch. If the variable branch.autosetuprebase applies for a branch that's being created, that branch will have branch.<name>.rebase set to true.

2008-02-19branch: optionally setup branch.*.merge from upstream local branchesLibravatar Jay Soffian1-20/+24
"git branch" and "git checkout -b" now honor --track option even when the upstream branch is local. Previously --track was silently ignored when forking from a local branch. Also the command did not error out when --track was explicitly asked for but the forked point specified was not an existing branch (i.e. when there is no way to set up the tracking configuration), but now it correctly does. The configuration setting branch.autosetupmerge can now be set to "always", which is equivalent to using --track from the command line. Setting branch.autosetupmerge to "true" will retain the former behavior of only setting up branch.*.merge for remote upstream branches. Includes test cases for the new functionality.

2008-02-09Move create_branch into a library fileLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-0/+140
You can also create branches, in exactly the same way, with checkout -b. This introduces branch.{c,h} library files for doing porcelain-level operations on branches (such as creating them with their appropriate default configuration). Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org>
