2011-04-01Merge "checkout ambiguous ref bugfix" into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+13
* commit '0cb6ad3': checkout: fix bug with ambiguous refs
2011-02-14correct type of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BINLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+1
Functions such as hashcmp that expect a binary SHA-1 value take parameters of type "unsigned char *" to avoid accepting a textual SHA-1 passed by mistake. Unfortunately, this means passing the string literal EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN requires an ugly cast. Tweak the definition of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN to produce a value of more convenient type. In the future the definition might change to extern const unsigned char empty_tree_sha1_bin[20]; #define EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN empty_tree_sha1_bin Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-01-11checkout: fix bug with ambiguous refsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+13
The usual dwim_ref lookup prefers tags to branches. Because checkout primarily works on branches, though, we switch that behavior to prefer branches. However, there was a bug in the implementation in which we used lookup_commit_reference (which used the regular lookup rules) to get the actual commit to checkout. Checking out an ambiguous ref therefore ended up putting us in an extremely broken state in which we wrote the branch ref into HEAD, but actually checked out the tree for the tag. This patch fixes the bug by always attempting to pull the commit to be checked out from the branch-ified version of the name we were given. Patch by Junio, tests and commit message from Jeff King.

2010-11-03Replace "remote tracking" with "remote-tracking"Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
"remote-tracking" branch makes it explicit that the branch is "tracking a remote", as opposed to "remote, and tracking something". See discussion in e.g. http://mid.gmane.org/8835ADF9-45E5-4A26-9F7F-A72ECC065BB2@gmail.com for more details.

2010-09-03Move "show_all_errors = 1" to setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+0
Not only this makes the code clearer since setting up the porcelain error message is meant to work with show_all_errors, but this fixes a call to setup_unpack_trees_porcelain() in git_merge_trees() which did not set show_all_errors. add_rejected_path() used to double-check whether it was running in plumbing mode. This check was ineffective since it was setting show_all_errors too late for traverse_trees() to see it, and is made useless by this patch. Remove it.

2010-08-25checkout: respect diff.ignoreSubmodules settingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+12
When 'git checkout' reports uncommitted changes, it also does so for submodules. The default mode is now to look really hard into submodules, not only for different commits, but also for modified files. Since this can be pretty expensive when there are a lot (and large) submodules, there is the diff.ignoreSubmodules option. Let's respect that setting when 'git checkout' reports the uncommitted changes, since it does nothing else than a 'git diff --name-status'.

2010-08-11unpack_trees: group error messages by typeLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+1
When an error is encountered, it calls add_rejected_file() which either - directly displays the error message and stops if in plumbing mode (i.e. if show_all_errors is not initialized at 1) - or stores it so that it will be displayed at the end with display_error_msgs(), Storing the files by error type permits to have a list of files for which there is the same error instead of having a serie of almost identical errors. As each bind_overlap error combines a file and an old file, a list cannot be done, therefore, theses errors are not stored but directly displayed.

2010-08-11merge-recursive: porcelain messages for checkoutLibravatar Diane Gasselin1-1/+1
A porcelain message was first added in checkout.c in the commit 8ccba008 (Junio C Hamano, Sat May 17 21:03:49 2008, unpack-trees: allow Porcelain to give different error messages) to give better feedback in the case of merge errors. This patch adapts the porcelain messages for the case of checkout instead. This way, when having a checkout error, "merge" no longer appears in the error message. While we're there, we add an advice in the case of would_lose_untracked_file. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-08-11Turn unpack_trees_options.msgs into an array + enumLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
The list of error messages was introduced as a structure, but an array indexed over an enum is more flexible, since it allows one to store a type of error message (index in the array) in a variable. This change needs to rename would_lose_untracked -> would_lose_untracked_file to avoid a clash with the function would_lose_untracked in merge-recursive.c.

2010-08-06merge-recursive --renormalizeLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+7
Teach "git merge-recursive" a --renormalize option to enable the merge.renormalize configuration. The --no-renormalize option can be used to override it in the negative. So in the future, you might be able to, e.g.: git checkout -m -Xrenormalize otherbranch or git revert -Xrenormalize otherpatch or git pull --rebase -Xrenormalize The bad part: merge.renormalize is still not honored for most commands. And it reveals lots of places that -X has not been plumbed in (so we get "git merge -Xrenormalize" but not much else).

Add a “renormalize” bit to the ll-merge options word so callers can decide on a case-by-case basis whether the merge is likely to have overlapped with a change in smudge/clean rules.

Unfortunately, there are still plenty of production systems with vendor compilers that choke unless all compound declarations can be determined statically at compile time, for example hpux10.20 (I can provide a comprehensive list of our supported platforms that exhibit this problem if necessary).

2010-03-21git checkout: create unparented branch by --orphanLibravatar Erick Mattos1-2/+13
Similar to -b, --orphan creates a new branch, but it starts without any commit. After running "git checkout --orphan newbranch", you are on a new branch "newbranch", and the first commit you create from this state will start a new history without any ancestry. "git checkout --orphan" keeps the index and the working tree files intact in order to make it convenient for creating a new history whose trees resemble the ones from the original branch. When creating a branch whose trees have no resemblance to the ones from the original branch, it may be easier to start work on the new branch by untracking and removing all working tree files that came from the original branch, by running a 'git rm -rf .' immediately after running "checkout --orphan".

2010-03-20checkout -m --conflict=diff3: add a label for ancestorLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+1
git checkout --merge --conflict=diff3 can be used to present conflict hunks including text from the common ancestor. The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and merge tools tend to understand it because it is very similar to what ‘diff3 -m’ produces. Unlike current git, diff3 -m includes a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line, and unfortunately, some tools cannot parse the conflict hunks without it. Humans can benefit from a cue when learning to interpreting the format, too. Mark the start of the text from the old branch with a label based on the branch’s name. git rerere does not have trouble parsing this output and its preimage ids are unchanged since it includes its own code for recreating conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse conflict hunks.

git checkout --conflict=diff3 can be used to present conflicts hunks including text from the common ancestor: <<<<<<< ours ourside ||||||| original ======= theirside >>>>>>> theirs The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and merge tools can usually understand it without trouble because it looks like output from ‘diff3 -m’. diff3 includes a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line, and it seems some tools (for example, Emacs 22’s smerge-mode) cannot parse conflict hunks without such a label. Humans could use help in interpreting the output, too. So change the marker for the start of the text from the common ancestor to include the label “base”. git rerere’s conflict identifiers are not affected: to parse conflict hunks, rerere looks for whitespace after the ||||||| marker rather than a newline, and to compute preimage ids, rerere has its own code for creating conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse conflict hunks.

Commands using the ll_merge() function will present conflict hunks imitating ‘diff3 -m’ output if the merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set appropriately. Unlike ‘diff3 -m’, the output does not include a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output, and some tools misparse the conflict hunks without that. Add a new ancestor_label parameter to ll_merge() to give callers the power to rectify this situation. If ancestor_label is NULL, the output format is unchanged. All callers pass NULL for now.

NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion.
