"git status" has trouble showing where it came from by interpreting
reflog entries that recordcertain events, e.g. "checkout @{u}", and
gives a hard/fatal error. Even though it inherently is impossible
to give a correct answer because the reflog entries lose some
information (e.g. "@{u}" does not record what branch the user was
on hence which branch 'the upstream' needs to be computed, and even
if the record were available, the relationship between branches may
have changed), at least hide the error to allow "status" show its
output.
* jt/interpret-branch-name-fallback:
wt-status: tolerate dangling marks
refs: move dwim_ref() to header file
sha1-name: replace unsigned int with option struct
|
|
When a user checks out the upstream branch of HEAD, the upstream branch
not being a local branch, and then runs "git status", like this:
git clone $URL client
cd client
git checkout @{u}
git status
no status is printed, but instead an error message:
fatal: HEAD does not point to a branch
(This error message when running "git branch" persists even after
checking out other things - it only stops after checking out a branch.)
This is because "git status" reads the reflog when determining the "HEAD
detached" message, and thus attempts to DWIM "@{u}", but that doesn't
work because HEAD no longer points to a branch.
Therefore, when calculating the status of a worktree, tolerate dangling
marks. This is done by adding an additional parameter to
dwim_ref() and repo_dwim_ref().

The pathspec given to git checkout and git restore is used with both
tree_entry_interesting (via read_tree_recursive) and match_pathspec
(via ce_path_match). The latter effectively only supports recursive
matching regardless of the value of the pathspec flag "recursive",
which is unset here.
That causes different match results for pathspecs with wildcards, and
can lead checkout and restore in no-overlay mode to remove entries
instead of modifying them. Enable recursive matching for both checkout
and restore to make matching consistent.
Setting the flag in checkout_main() technically also affects git switch,
but since that command doesn't accept pathspecs at all this has no
actual consequence.

We unconditionally write a branch name into a newly allocated buffer in
new_branch_info->path, via setup_branch_path(). We then check to see if
the branch exists; if not, we set that field to NULL, leaking the
memory. We should take care to free() it when doing so.

The 'merge' command is not the only one that does merges; other commands
like checkout -m or rebase do as well. Unfortunately, the only area of
the code that checked for the "merge.renormalize" config setting was in
builtin/merge.c, meaning it could only affect merges performed by the
"merge" command. Move the handling of this config setting to
merge_recursive_config() so that other commands can benefit from it as
well. Fixes a few tests in t6038.

Code simplification and test coverage enhancement.
* bc/filter-process:
t2060: add a test for switch with --orphan and --discard-changes
builtin/checkout: simplify metadata initialization
|

When we try to create a branch "foo" based on "origin/master" and give
git commit -b an extra unsupported argument "bar", it confusingly
reports:
$ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it
$ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it
That's wrong, because it very well understands that "origin/master" is
supposed to be the start point for the new branch and not "bar". Check
if we got a commit and show more fitting messages in that case instead:
$ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'foo' at the same time.
$ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar
fatal: '--track' cannot be used with updating paths

When we call init_checkout_metadata in reset_tree, we want to pass the
object ID of the commit in question so that it can be passed to filters,
or if there is no commit, the tree. We anticipated this latter case,
which can occur elsewhere in the checkout code, but it cannot occur
here. The only case in which we do not have a commit object is when
invoking git switch with --orphan. Moreover, we can only hit this code
path without a commit object additionally with either --force or
--discard-changes.
In such a case, there is no point initializing the checkout metadata
with a commit or tree because (a) there is no commit, only the empty
tree, and (b) we will never use the data, since no files will be smudged
when checking out a branch with no files. Pass the all-zeros object ID
in this case, since we just need some value which is a valid pointer.

By default, files are restored from the index for --worktree, and from
HEAD for --staged. When --worktree and --staged are combined, --source
must be specified to disambiguate the restore source[1], thus making it
cumbersome to restore a file in both the worktree and the index.
However, HEAD is also a reasonable default for --worktree when combined
with --staged, so make it the default anytime --staged is used (whether
combined with --worktree or not).
[1]: Due to an oversight, the --source requirement, though documented,
is not actually enforced.

In d787d311db (checkout: split part of it to new command 'switch',
2019-03-29), the `git switch` command was created by extracting the
common functionality of cmd_checkout() in checkout_main(). However, in
b7b5fce270 (switch: better names for -b and -B, 2019-03-29), the branch
creation and force creation options for 'switch' were changed to -c and
-C, respectively. As a result of this, error messages and comments that
previously referred to `-b` and `-B` became invalid for `git switch`.
For error messages that refer to `-b` and `-B`, use a format string
instead so that `-c` and `-C` can be printed when `git switch` is
invoked.

In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a
plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and
OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct
definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to
developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy
happening.
Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or
OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the
following (disgusting) shell script:
#!/bin/sh
do_replacement () {
tr '\n' '\r' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' |
sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' |
tr '\r' '\n'
}
for f in $(git ls-files \*.c)
do
do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp"
mv "$f.tmp" "$f"
done
The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the
style of the surrounding code. Finally, using
`git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled
by the script were manually transformed.

Now that we have the codebase wired up to pass any additional metadata
to filters, let's collect the additional metadata that we'd like to
pass.
The two main places we pass this metadata are checkouts and archives.
In these two situations, reading HEAD isn't a valid option, since HEAD
isn't updated for checkouts until after the working tree is written and
archives can accept an arbitrary tree. In other situations, HEAD will
usually reflect the refname of the branch in current use.
We pass a smaller amount of data in other cases, such as git cat-file,
where we can really only logically know about the blob.
This commit updates only the parts of the checkout code where we don't
use unpack_trees. That function and callers of it will be handled in a
future commit.
In the archive code, we leak a small amount of memory, since nothing we
pass in the archiver argument structure is freed.

has been corrected.
* nd/switch-and-restore:
restore: invalidate cache-tree when removing entries with --staged
|
|
When "git restore --staged <path>" removes a path that's in the index,
it marks the entry with CE_REMOVE, but we don't do anything to
invalidate the cache-tree. In the non-staged case, we end up in
checkout_worktree(), which calls remove_marked_cache_entries(). That
actually drops the entries from the index, as well as invalidating the
cache-tree and untracked-cache.
But with --staged, we never call checkout_worktree(), and the CE_REMOVE
entries remain. Interestingly, they are dropped when we write out the
index, but that means the resulting index is inconsistent: its
cache-tree will not match the actual entries, and running "git commit"
immediately after will create the wrong tree.
We can solve this by calling remove_marked_cache_entries() ourselves
before writing out the index. Note that we can't just hoist it out of
checkout_worktree(); that function needs to iterate over the CE_REMOVE
entries (to drop their matching worktree files) before removing them.
One curiosity about the test: without this patch, it actually triggers a
BUG() when running git-restore:
BUG: cache-tree.c:810: new1 with flags 0x4420000 should not be in cache-tree
But in the original problem report, which used a similar recipe,
git-restore actually creates the bogus index (and the commit is created
with the wrong tree). I'm not sure why the test here behaves differently
than my out-of-suite reproduction, but what's here should catch either
symptom (and the fix corrects both cases).

For easier understanding, here are the existing good scenarios:
1) Have *no* file 'foo', *no* local branch 'foo' and a *single*
remote branch 'foo'
2) `git checkout foo` will create local branch foo, see [1]
and
1) Have *a* file 'foo', *no* local branch 'foo' and a *single*
remote branch 'foo'
2) `git checkout foo` will complain, see [3]
This patch prevents the following scenario:
1) Have *a* file 'foo', *no* local branch 'foo' and *multiple*
remote branches 'foo'
2) `git checkout foo` will successfully... revert contents of
file `foo`!
That is, adding another remote suddenly changes behavior significantly,
which is a surprise at best and could go unnoticed by user at worst.
Please see [3] which gives some real world complaints.
To my understanding, fix in [3] overlooked the case of multiple remotes,
and the whole behavior of falling back to reverting file was never
intended:
[1] introduces the unexpected behavior. Before, there was fallback
from not-a-ref to pathspec. This is reasonable fallback. After, there
is another fallback from ambiguous-remote to pathspec. I understand
that it was a copy&paste oversight.
[2] noticed the unexpected behavior but chose to semi-document it
instead of forbidding, because the goal of the patch series was
focused on something else.
[3] adds `die()` when there is ambiguity between branch and file. The
case of multiple tracking branches is seemingly overlooked.
The new behavior: if there is no local branch and multiple remote
candidates, just die() and don't try reverting file whether it
exists (prevents surprise) or not (improves error message).

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.

Fix a mismerge that happened in 2.22 timeframe.

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'.

write_tree_from_memory() appeared to be a merge-recursive special that
basically duplicated write_index_as_tree(). The two have a different

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

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

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.

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.
(*) of course when it's safe to do so, i.e. no loss of local changes and
stuff.

git-restore is different from git-checkout that it only restores the
worktree by default, not both worktree and index. add--interactive
needs some update to support this mode.

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.

"git restore --staged" without --source does not make much sense since
by default we restore from the index. Instead of copying the index to
itself, set the default source to HEAD in this case, yielding behavior
that matches "git reset -- <paths>".

git-checkout rejects plenty of invalid option combinations. Since
git-checkout is equivalent of either
git restore --source --staged --worktree
or
git restore --worktree
that still leaves the new mode 'git restore --index' unprotected. Reject
some more invalid option combinations.
The other new mode 'restore --source --worktree' does not need anything
else.

'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".

Overlay mode is considered confusing when the command is about
restoring files on worktree. Disable it by default. The user can still
turn it on, or use 'git checkout' which still has overlay mode on by
default.
While at it, make the check in checkout_branch() stricter. Neither
--overlay or --no-overlay should be accepted in branch switching mode.

"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.

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.

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.
