2020-04-10merge: teach --autostash optionLibravatar Denton Liu1-0/+1
In rebase, one can pass the `--autostash` option to cause the worktree to be automatically stashed before continuing with the rebase. This option is missing in merge, however. Implement the `--autostash` option and corresponding `merge.autoStash` option in merge which stashes before merging and then pops after. This option is useful when a developer has some local changes on a topic branch but they realize that their work depends on another branch. Previously, they had to run something like git fetch ... git stash push git merge FETCH_HEAD git stash pop but now, that is reduced to git fetch ... git merge --autostash FETCH_HEAD When an autostash is generated, it is automatically reapplied to the worktree only in three explicit situations: 1. An incomplete merge is commit using `git commit`. 2. A merge completes successfully. 3. A merge is aborted using `git merge --abort`. In all other situations where the merge state is removed using remove_merge_branch_state() such as aborting a merge via `git reset --hard`, the autostash is saved into the stash reflog instead keeping the worktree clean.

Both remove_branch_state() and drop_save() delete almost the same set of files about the current merge state. The only difference is MERGE_RR but it should also be cleaned up after a successful merge, which is what drop_save() is for. Make a new function that deletes all merge-related state files and use it instead of drop_save(). This function will also be used in the next patch that introduces --quit.

2019-05-07branch: make create_branch accept a merge base revLibravatar Denton Liu1-1/+1
When we ran something like $ git checkout -b test master... it would fail with the message fatal: Not a valid object name: 'master...'. This was caused by the call to `create_branch` where `start_name` is expected to be a valid rev. However, git-checkout allows the branch to be a valid _merge base_ rev (i.e. with a "...") so it was possible for an invalid rev to be passed in. Make `create_branch` accept a merge base rev so that this case does not error out. As a side-effect, teach git-branch how to handle merge base revs as well.

2019-04-17commit/reset: try to clean up sequencer stateLibravatar Phillip Wood1-2/+2
When cherry-picking or reverting a sequence of commits and if the final pick/revert has conflicts and the user uses `git commit` to commit the conflict resolution and does not run `git cherry-pick --continue` then the sequencer state is left behind. This can cause problems later. In my case I cherry-picked a sequence of commits the last one of which I committed with `git commit` after resolving some conflicts, then a while later, on a different branch I aborted a revert which rewound my HEAD to the end of the cherry-pick sequence on the previous branch. Avoid this potential problem by removing the sequencer state if we're committing or resetting the final pick in a sequence.

2019-04-02checkout: inform the user when removing branch stateLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-4/+7
After a successful switch, if a merge, cherry-pick or revert is ongoing, it is canceled. This behavior has been with us from the very early beginning, soon after git-merge was created but never actually documented [1]. It may be a good idea to be transparent and tell the user if some operation is canceled. I consider this a better way of telling the user than just adding a sentence or two in git-checkout.txt, which will be mostly ignored anyway. PS. Originally I wanted to print more details like warning: cancelling an in-progress merge from <SHA-1> which may allow some level of undo if the user wants to. But that seems a lot more work. Perhaps it can be improved later if people still want that. [1] ... and I will try not to argue whether it is a sensible behavior.

2017-10-13branch: split validate_new_branchname() into twoLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-11/+23
Checking if a proposed name is appropriate for a branch is strictly a subset of checking if we want to allow creating or updating a branch with such a name. The mysterious sounding 'attr_only' parameter to validate_new_branchname() is used to switch the function between these two roles. Instead, split the function into two, and adjust the callers. A new helper validate_branchname() only checks the name and reports if the branch already exists. This loses one NEEDSWORK from the branch API. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-08-24branch: fix branch renaming not updating HEADs correctlyLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+3
There are two bugs that sort of work together and cause problems. Let's start with one in replace_each_worktree_head_symref. Before fa099d2322 (worktree.c: kill parse_ref() in favor of refs_resolve_ref_unsafe() - 2017-04-24), this code looks like this: if (strcmp(oldref, worktrees[i]->head_ref)) continue; set_worktree_head_symref(...); After fa099d2322, it is possible that head_ref can be NULL. However, the updated code takes the wrong exit. In the error case (NULL head_ref), we should "continue;" to the next worktree. The updated code makes us _skip_ "continue;" and update HEAD anyway. The NULL head_ref is triggered by the second bug in add_head_info (in the same commit). With the flag RESOLVE_REF_READING, resolve_ref_unsafe() will abort if it cannot resolve the target ref. For orphan checkouts, HEAD always points to an unborned branch, resolving target ref will always fail. Now we have NULL head_ref. Now we always update HEAD. Correct the logic in replace_ function so that we don't accidentally update HEAD on error. As it turns out, correcting the logic bug above breaks branch renaming completely, thanks to the second bug. "git branch -[Mm]" does two steps (on a normal checkout, no orphan!): - rename the branch on disk (e.g. refs/heads/abc to refs/heads/def) - update HEAD if it points to the branch being renamed. At the second step, since the branch pointed to by HEAD (e.g. "abc") no longer exists on disk, we run into a temporary orphan checkout situation that has been just corrected to _not_ update HEAD. But we need to update HEAD since it's not actually an orphan checkout. We need to update HEAD to move out of that orphan state. Correct add_head_info(), remove RESOLVE_REF_READING flag. With the flag gone, we should always return good "head_ref" in orphan checkouts (either temporary or permanent). With good head_ref, things start to work again.

Convert lookup_commit, lookup_commit_or_die, lookup_commit_reference, and lookup_commit_reference_gently to take struct object_id arguments. Introduce a temporary in parse_object buffer in order to convert this function. This is required since in order to convert parse_object and parse_object_buffer, lookup_commit_reference_gently and lookup_commit_or_die would need to be converted. Not introducing a temporary would therefore require that lookup_commit_or_die take a struct object_id *, but lookup_commit would take unsigned char *, leaving a confusing and hard-to-use interface. parse_object_buffer will lose this temporary in a later patch.

2017-02-20branch: record creation of renamed branch in HEAD's logLibravatar Kyle Meyer1-2/+3
Renaming the current branch adds an event to the current branch's log and to HEAD's log. However, the logged entries differ. The entry in the branch's log represents the entire renaming operation (the old and new hash are identical), whereas the entry in HEAD's log represents the deletion only (the new sha1 is null). Extend replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), whose only caller is branch_rename(), to take a reflog message argument. This allows the creation of the new ref to be recorded in HEAD's log. As a result, the renaming event is represented by two entries (a deletion and a creation entry) in HEAD's log. It's a bit unfortunate that the branch's log and HEAD's log now represent the renaming event in different ways. Given that the renaming operation is not atomic, the two-entry form is a more accurate representation of the operation and is more useful for debugging purposes if a failure occurs between the deletion and creation events. It would make sense to move the branch's log to the two-entry form, but this would involve changes to how the rename is carried out and to how the update flags and reflogs are processed for deletions, so it may not be worth the effort.

2017-01-31refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysLibravatar Cornelius Weig1-1/+1
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old history immediately). However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than the performance implications of keeping the log around. This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

In 55c4a6730, that logic moved to validate_new_branchname(), which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to create_branch is now unused. Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the parameters.

2016-04-22worktree.c: check whether branch is rebased in another worktreeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+2
This function find_shared_symref() is used in a couple places: 1) in builtin/branch.c: it's used to detect if a branch is checked out elsewhere and refuse to delete the branch. 2) in builtin/notes.c: it's used to detect if a note is being merged in another worktree 3) in branch.c, the function die_if_checked_out() is actually used by "git checkout" and "git worktree add" to see if a branch is already checked out elsewhere and refuse the operation. In cases 1 and 3, if a rebase is ongoing, "HEAD" will be in detached mode, find_shared_symref() fails to detect it and declares "no branch is checked out here", which is not really what we want. This patch tightens the test. If the given symref is "HEAD", we try to detect if rebase is ongoing. If so return the branch being rebased. This makes checkout and branch delete operations safer because you can't checkout a branch being rebased in another place, or delete it. Special case for checkout. If the current branch is being rebased, git-rebase.sh may use "git checkout" to abort and return back to the original branch. The updated test in find_shared_symref() will prevent that and "git rebase --abort" will fail as a result. find_shared_symref() and die_if_checked_out() have to learn a new option ignore_current_worktree to loosen the test a bit.

2016-04-22worktree.c: make find_shared_symref() return struct worktree *Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+7
This gives the caller more information and they can answer things like, "is it the main worktree" or "is it the current worktree". The latter question is needed for the "checkout a rebase branch" case later. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-04-22worktree.c: store "id" instead of "git_dir"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+2
We can reconstruct git_dir from id quite easily. It's a bit hackier to do the reverse. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-04-04branch -m: update all per-worktree HEADsLibravatar Kazuki Yamaguchi1-0/+23
When renaming a branch, currently only the HEAD of current working tree is updated, but it must update HEADs of all working trees which point at the old branch. This is the current behavior, /path/to/wt's HEAD is not updated: % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master] /path/to/wt 2c3c5f2 [oldname] % git branch -m master master2 % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master2] /path/to/wt 2c3c5f2 [oldname] % git branch -m oldname newname % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master2] /path/to/wt 0000000 [oldname] This patch fixes this issue by updating all relevant worktree HEADs when renaming a branch.

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set to git_config_set_gentlyLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-3/+3
The desired default behavior for `git_config_set` is to die whenever an error occurs. Dying is the default for a lot of internal functions when failures occur and is in this case the right thing to do for most callers as otherwise we might run into inconsistent repositories without noticing. As some code may rely on the actual return values for `git_config_set` we still require the ability to invoke these functions without aborting. Rename the existing `git_config_set` functions to `git_config_set_gently` to keep them available for those callers.

2016-02-22branch: report errors in tracking branch setupLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-14/+36
When setting up a new tracking branch fails due to issues with the configuration file we do not report any errors to the user and pretend setting the tracking branch succeeded. Setting up the tracking branch is handled by the `install_branch_config` function. We do not want to simply die there as the function is not only invoked when explicitly setting upstream information with `git branch --set-upstream-to=`, but also by `git push --set-upstream` and `git clone`. While it is reasonable to die in the explict first case, we would lose information in the latter two cases, so we only print the error message but continue the program as usual.
