2016-11-09create_branch: drop unused "head" parameterLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+14
This function used to have the caller pass in the current value of HEAD, in order to make sure we didn't clobber HEAD. 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 Duy1-1/+1
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.

2016-04-04branch -m: update all per-worktree HEADsLibravatar Kazuki Yamaguchi1-0/+7
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.

2016-02-22branch: report errors in tracking branch setupLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+2
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.

2015-08-11worktrees: add find_shared_symrefLibravatar David Turner1-0/+8
Add a new function, find_shared_symref, which contains the heart of die_if_checked_out, but works for any symref, not just HEAD. Refactor die_if_checked_out to use the same infrastructure as find_shared_symref. Soon, we will use find_shared_symref to protect notes merges in worktrees.

2015-07-20branch: publish die_if_checked_out()Libravatar Eric Sunshine1-0/+7
git-worktree currently conflates new branch creation, setting of HEAD in the new wortkree, and worktree population into a single sub-invocation of git-checkout. However, these operations will eventually be separated, and git-worktree itself will need to be able to detect if the branch is already checked out elsewhere, rather than relying upon git-branch to make this determination, so publish die_if_checked_out().

2012-03-26checkout: suppress tracking message with "-q"Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Like the "switched to..." message (which is already suppressed by "-q"), this message is purely informational. Let's silence it if the user asked us to be quiet. This patch is slightly more than a one-liner, because we have to teach create_branch to propagate the flag all the way down to install_branch_config.

2011-11-28Allow checkout -B <current-branch> to update the current branchLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+2
When on master, "git checkout -B master <commit>" is a more natural way to say "git reset --keep <commit>", which was originally invented for the exact purpose of moving to the named commit while keeping the local changes around.

2011-10-05branch: add read_branch_desc() helper functionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5

2011-09-16branch --set-upstream: regression fixLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+11
The "git branch" command, while not in listing mode, calls create_branch() even when the target branch already exists, and it does so even when it is not interested in updating the value of the branch (i.e. the name of the commit object that sits at the tip of the existing branch). This happens when the command is run with "--set-upstream" option. The earlier safety-measure to prevent "git branch -f $branch $commit" from updating the currently checked out branch did not take it into account, and we no longer can update the tracking information of the current branch. Minimally fix this regression by telling the validation code if it is called to really update the value of a potentially existing branch, or if the caller merely is interested in updating auxiliary aspects of a branch.

2011-08-22Prevent force-updating of the current branchLibravatar Conrad Irwin1-0/+8
"git branch -M <foo> <current-branch>" allows updating the current branch which HEAD points, without the necessary house-keeping that git reset normally does to make this operation sensible. It also leaves the reflog in a confusing state (you would be warned when trying to read it). "git checkout -B <current branch> <foo>" is also partly vulnerable to this bug; due to inconsistent pre-flight checks it would perform half of its task and then abort just before rewriting the branch. Again this manifested itself as the index file getting out-of-sync with HEAD. "git branch -f" already guarded against this problem, and aborts with a fatal error. Update "git branch -M", "git checkout -B" and "git branch -f" to share the same check before allowing a branch to be created. These prevent you from updating the current branch. We considered suggesting the use of "git reset" in the failure message but concluded that it was not possible to discern what the user was actually trying to do.

2010-11-03Change incorrect "remote branch" to "remote tracking branch" in C codeLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+2
(Just like we did for documentation already) In the process, we change "non-remote branch" to "branch outside the refs/remotes/ hierarchy" to avoid the ugly "non-remote-tracking branch". The new formulation actually corresponds to how the code detects this case (i.e. prefixcmp(refname, "refs/remotes")). Also, we use 'remote-tracking branch' in generated merge messages (by merge an fmt-merge-msg). Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-03-03Make git-clone respect branch.autosetuprebaseLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When git-clone creates an initial branch it was not checking the branch.autosetuprebase configuration option (which may exist in ~/.gitconfig). Refactor the code used by "git branch" to create a new branch, and use it instead of the insufficiently duplicated code in builtin-clone. Changes are partly, and the test is mostly, based on the previous work by Pat Notz. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-19branch: optionally setup branch.*.merge from upstream local branchesLibravatar Jay Soffian1-1/+1
"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.
