2019-12-04checkout, restore: support the --pathspec-from-file optionLibravatar Alexandr Miloslavskiy1-4/+27
Decisions taken for simplicity: 1) For now, `--pathspec-from-file` is declared incompatible with `--patch`, even when <file> is not `stdin`. Such use case it not really expected. 2) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file. `you must specify path(s) to restore` block was moved down to be able to test for `pathspec.nr` instead, because testing for `argc` is no longer correct. `git switch` does not support the new options because it doesn't expect `<pathspec>` arguments.

2019-08-30checkout: add simple check for 'git checkout -b'Libravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+9
The 'git switch' command was created to separate half of the behavior of 'git checkout'. It specifically has the mode to do nothing with the index and working directory if the user only specifies to create a new branch and change HEAD to that branch. This is also the behavior most users expect from 'git checkout -b', but for historical reasons it also performs an index update by scanning the working directory. This can be slow for even moderately-sized repos. A performance fix for 'git checkout -b' was introduced by fa655d8411 (checkout: optimize "git checkout -b <new_branch>" 2018-08-16). That change includes details about the config setting checkout.optimizeNewBranch when the sparse-checkout feature is required. The way this change detected if this behavior change is safe was through the skip_merge_working_tree() method. This method was complex and needed to be updated as new options were introduced. This behavior was essentially reverted by 65f099b ("switch: no worktree status unless real branch switch happens" 2019-03-29). Instead, two members of the checkout_opts struct were used to distinguish between 'git checkout' and 'git switch': * switch_branch_doing_nothing_is_ok * only_merge_on_switching_branches These settings have opposite values depending on if we start in cmd_checkout or cmd_switch. The message for 64f099b includes "Users of big repos are encouraged to move to switch." Making this change while 'git switch' is still experimental is too aggressive. Create a happy medium between these two options by making 'git checkout -b <branch>' behave just like 'git switch', but only if we read exactly those arguments. This must be done in cmd_checkout to avoid the arguments being consumed by the option parsing logic. This differs from the previous change by fa644d8 in that the config option checkout.optimizeNewBranch remains deleted. This means that 'git checkout -b' will ignore the index merge even if we have a sparse-checkout file. While this is a behavior change for 'git checkout -b', it matches the behavior of 'git switch -c'.

2019-08-19cache-tree: share code between functions writing an index as a treeLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+1
write_tree_from_memory() appeared to be a merge-recursive special that basically duplicated write_index_as_tree(). The two have a different signature, but the bigger difference was just that write_index_as_tree() would always unconditionally read the index off of disk instead of working on the current in-memory index. So: * split out common code into write_index_as_tree_internal() * rename write_tree_from_memory() to write_inmemory_index_as_tree(), make it call write_index_as_tree_internal(), and move it to cache-tree.c Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-08-16checkout: provide better conflict hunk description with detached HEADLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+8
When running 'git checkout -m' and using diff3 style conflict markers, we want all the conflict hunks (left-side, "common" or "merge base", and right-side) to have label markers letting the user know where each came from. The "common" hunk label (o.ancestor) came from old_branch_info->name, but that is NULL when HEAD is detached, which resulted in a blank label. Check for that case and provide an abbreviated commit hash instead. (Incidentally, this was the only case in the git codebase where merge_trees() was called with opt->ancestor being NULL. A subsequent commit will prevent similar problems by enforcing that merge_trees() always be called with opt->ancestor != NULL.)

2019-08-02checkout.c: unstage empty deleted ita filesLibravatar Varun Naik1-0/+1
It is possible to delete a committed file from the index and then add it as intent-to-add. After `git checkout HEAD <pathspec>`, the file should be identical in the index and HEAD. The command already works correctly if the file has contents in HEAD. This patch provides the desired behavior even when the file is empty in HEAD. `git checkout HEAD <pathspec>` calls tree.c:read_tree_1(), with fn pointing to checkout.c:update_some(). update_some() creates a new cache entry but discards it when its mode and oid match those of the old entry. A cache entry for an ita file and a cache entry for an empty file have the same oid. Therefore, an empty deleted ita file previously passed both of these checks, and the new entry was discarded, so the file remained unchanged in the index. After this fix, if the file is marked as ita in the cache, then we avoid discarding the new entry and add the new entry to the cache instead. This change should not affect newly added ita files. For those, inside tree.c:read_tree_1(), tree_entry_interesting() returns entry_not_interesting, so fn is never called.

2019-06-20switch: allow to switch in the middle of bisectLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+1
In c45f0f525d (switch: reject if some operation is in progress, 2019-03-29), a check is added to prevent switching when some operation is in progress. The reason is it's often not safe to do so. This is true for merge, am, rebase, cherry-pick and revert, but not so much for bisect because bisecting is basically jumping/switching between a bunch of commits to pin point the first bad one. git-bisect suggests the next commit to test, but it's not wrong for the user to test a different commit because git-bisect cannot have the knowledge to know better. For this reason, allow to switch when bisecting (*). I considered if we should still prevent switching by default and allow it with --ignore-in-progress. But I don't think the prevention really adds anything much. If the user switches away by mistake, since we print the previous HEAD value, even if they don't know about the "-" shortcut, switching back is still possible. The warning will be printed on every switch while bisect is still ongoing, not the first time you switch away from bisect's suggested commit, so it could become a bit annoying.

2019-05-07restore: replace --force with --ignore-unmergedLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-9/+20
Use a more specific option name to express its purpose. --force may come back as an alias of --ignore-unmerged and possibly more. But since this is a destructive operation, I don't see why we need to "force" anything more. We already don't hold back. When 'checkout --force' or 'restore --ignore-unmerged' is used, we may also print warnings about unmerged entries being ignore. Since this is not exactly warning (people tell us to do so), more informational, let it be suppressed if --quiet is given. This is a behavior change for git-checkout. PS. The diff looks a bit iffy since --force is moved to add_common_switch_branch_options() (i.e. for switching). But git-checkout is also doing switching and inherits this --force.

2019-05-07restore: add --worktree and --stagedLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+68
'git checkout <tree-ish> <pathspec>' updates both index and worktree. But updating the index when you want to restore worktree files is non-intuitive. The index contains the data ready for the next commit, and there's no indication that the user will want to commit the restored versions. 'git restore' therefore by default only touches worktree. The user has the option to update either the index with git restore --staged --source=<tree> <path> (1) or update both with git restore --staged --worktree --source=<tree> <path> (2) PS. Orignally I wanted to make worktree update default and form (1) would add index update while also updating the worktree, and the user would need to do "--staged --no-worktree" to update index only. But it looks really confusing that "--staged" option alone updates both. So now form (2) is used for both, which reads much more obvious. PPS. Yes form (1) overlaps with "git reset <rev> <path>". I don't know if we can ever turn "git reset" back to "_always_ reset HEAD and optionally do something else".

"git restore" without arguments does not make much sense when it's about restoring files (what files now?). We could default to either git restore . or git restore :/ Neither is intuitive. Make the user always give pathspec, force the user to think the scope of restore they want because this is a destructive operation. "git restore -p" without pathspec is an exception to this because it really is a separate mode. It will be treated as running patch mode on the whole worktree.

2019-05-07restore: take tree-ish from --source option insteadLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-8/+34
This is another departure from 'git checkout' syntax, which uses -- to separate ref and pathspec. The observation is restore (or "git checkout -- <pathspec>") is most often used to restore some files from the index. If this is correct, we can simplify it by taking away the ref, so that we can write git restore some-file without worrying about some-file being a ref and whether we need to do git restore -- some-file for safety. If the source of the restore comes from a tree, it will be in the form of an option with value, e.g. git restore --source=this-tree some-file This is of course longer to type than using "--". But hopefully it will not be used as often, and it is clearly easier to understand. dwim_new_local_branch is no longer set (or unset) in cmd_restore_files() because it's irrelevant because we don't really care about dwim-ing. With accept_ref being unset, dwim can't happen. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-05-07checkout: split part of it to new command 'restore'Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+26
Previously the switching branch business of 'git checkout' becomes a new command 'switch'. This adds the restore command for the checking out paths path. Similar to git-switch, a new man page is added to describe what the command will become. The implementation will be updated shortly to match the man page. A couple main differences from 'git checkout <paths>': - 'restore' by default will only update worktree. This matters more when --source is specified ('checkout <tree> <paths>' updates both worktree and index). - 'restore --staged' can be used to restore the index. This command overlaps with 'git reset <paths>'. - both worktree and index could also be restored at the same time (from a tree) when both --staged and --worktree are specified. This overlaps with 'git checkout <tree> <paths>' - default source for restoring worktree and index is the index and HEAD respectively. A different (tree) source could be specified as with --source (*). - when both index and worktree are restored, --source must be specified since the default source for these two individual targets are different (**) - --no-overlay is enabled by default, if an entry is missing in the source, restoring means deleting the entry (*) I originally went with --from instead of --source. I still think --from is a better name. The short option -f however is already taken by force. And I do think short option is good to have, e.g. to write -s@ or -s@^ instead of --source=HEAD. (**) If you sit down and think about it, moving worktree's source from the index to HEAD makes sense, but nobody is really thinking it through when they type the commands.

2019-04-02switch: make --orphan switch to an empty treeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-8/+31
Switching and creating branches always involves knowing the <start-point> to begin the new branch from. Sometimes, people want to create a new branch that does not have any commits yet; --orphan is a flag to allow that. --orphan overrides the default of HEAD for <start-point> instead causing us to start from an empty history with all tracked files removed from the index and working tree. The use of --orphan is incompatible with specifying a <start-point>. A note on the implementation. An alternative is just create a dummy commit in-core with empty tree and switch to it. But there's a chance the commit's SHA-1 may end up somewhere permanent like reflog. It's best to make sure "commit" pointer is NULL to avoid it.

2019-04-02switch: reject if some operation is in progressLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+40
Unless you know what you're doing, switching to another branch to do something then switching back could be confusing. Worse, you may even forget that you're in the middle of something. By the time you realize, you may have done a ton of work and it gets harder to go back. A new option --ignore-in-progress was considered but dropped because it was not exactly clear what should happen. Sometimes you can switch away and get back safely and resume the operation. Sometimes not. And the git-checkout behavior is automatically clear merge/revert/cherry-pick, which makes it a bit even more confusing [1]. We may revisit and add this option in the future. But for now play it safe and not allow it (you can't even skip this check with --force). The user is suggested to cancel the operation by themselves (and hopefully they do consider the consequences, not blindly type the command), or to create a separate worktree instead of switching. The third option is the good old "git checkout", but it's not mentioned.

2019-04-02switch: no worktree status unless real branch switch happensLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-126/+8
When we switch from one branch to another, it makes sense to show a summary of local changes since there could be conflicts, or some files left modified.... When switch is used solely for creating a new branch (and "switch" to the same commit) or detaching, we don't really need to show anything. "git checkout" does it anyway for historical reasons. But we can start with a clean slate with switch and don't have to. This essentially reverts fa655d8411 (checkout: optimize "git checkout -b <new_branch>" - 2018-08-16) and make it default for switch, but also for -B and --detach.

2019-04-02checkout: split part of it to new command 'switch'Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-12/+48
"git checkout" doing too many things is a source of confusion for many users (and it even bites old timers sometimes). To remedy that, the command will be split into two new ones: switch and restore. The good old "git checkout" command is still here and will be until all (or most of users) are sick of it. See the new man page for the final design of switch. The actual implementation though is still pretty much the same as "git checkout" and not completely aligned with the man page. Following patches will adjust their behavior to match the man page.

2019-04-02checkout: split options[] array in three piecesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-23/+59
This is a preparation step for introducing new commands that do parts of what checkout does. There will be two new commands, one is about switching branches, detaching HEAD... one about checking out paths. These share the a subset of command line options. The rest of command line options are separate. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-04-02checkout: move 'confict_style' and 'dwim_..' to checkout_optsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-7/+10
These local variables are referenced by struct option[]. This struct will soon be broken down, moved away and we can't rely on local variables anymore. Move these two to struct checkout_opts in preparation for that. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-04-02checkout: make "opts" in cmd_checkout() a pointerLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-57/+58
"opts" will soon be moved out of cmd_checkout(). To keep changes in that patch smaller, convert "opts" to a pointer and keep the real thing behind "real_opts". Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-04-02checkout: factor out some code in parse_branchname_arg()Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-20/+31

2019-04-02checkout: inform the user when removing branch stateLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
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.

2019-03-24checkout: prevent losing staged changes with --mergeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+10
When --merge is specified, we may need to do a real merge (instead of three-way tree unpacking), the steps are best seen in git-checkout.sh version before it's removed: # Match the index to the working tree, and do a three-way. git diff-files --name-only | git update-index --remove --stdin && work=`git write-tree` && git read-tree $v --reset -u $new || exit git merge-recursive $old -- $new $work # Do not register the cleanly merged paths in the index yet. # this is not a real merge before committing, but just carrying # the working tree changes along. unmerged=`git ls-files -u` git read-tree $v --reset $new case "$unmerged" in '') ;; *) ( z40=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 echo "$unmerged" | sed -e 's/^[0-7]* [0-9a-f]* /'"0 $z40 /" echo "$unmerged" ) | git update-index --index-info ;; esac Notice the last 'read-tree --reset' step. We restore worktree back to 'new' tree after worktree's messed up by merge-recursive. If there are staged changes before this whole command sequence is executed, they are lost because they are unlikely part of the 'new' tree to be restored. There is no easy way to fix this. Elijah may have something up his sleeves [1], but until then, check if there are staged changes and refuse to run and lose them. The user would need to do "git reset" to continue in this case. A note about the test update. 'checkout -m' in that test will fail because a deletion is staged. This 'checkout -m' was previously needed to verify quietness behavior of unpack-trees. But a different check has been put in place in the last patch. We can safely drop 'checkout -m' now.

2019-03-24unpack-trees: rename "gently" flag to "quiet"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
The gently flag was added in 17e4642667 (Add flag to make unpack_trees() not print errors. - 2008-02-07) to suppress error messages. The name "gently" does not quite express that. Granted, being quiet is gentle but it could mean not performing some other actions. Rename the flag to "quiet" to be more on point.

2019-03-21checkout.txt: note about losing staged changes with --mergeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+9
If you have staged changes in path A and perform 'checkout --merge' (which could result in conflicts in a totally unrelated path B), changes in A will be gone. Which is unexpected. We are supposed to keep all changes, or kick and scream otherwise. This is the result of how --merge is implemented, from the very first day in 1be0659efc (checkout: merge local modifications while switching branches., 2006-01-12): 1. a merge is done, unmerged entries are collected 2. a hard switch to a new branch is done, then unmerged entries added back There is no trivial fix for this. Going with 3-way merge one file at a time loses rename detection. Going with 3-way merge by trees requires teaching the algorithm to pick up staged changes. And even if we detect staged changes with --merge and abort for safety, an option to continue --merge is very weird. Such an option would keep worktree changes, but drop staged changes. Because the problem has been with us since the introduction of --merge and everybody has been pretty happy (except Phillip, who found this problem), I'll just take a note here to acknowledge it and wait for merge wizards to come in and work their magic. There may be a way forward [1].
