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. (*) of course when it's safe to do so, i.e. no loss of local changes and stuff. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

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.

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.

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".

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. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-05-07restore: make pathspec mandatoryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+7
"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.

2019-04-02switch: implicit dwim, use --no-guess to disable itLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-8/+8
This is already the default in git-checkout. The real change in here is just minor cleanup. The main excuse is to explain why dwim is kept default. Contrary to detach mode that is easy to get into and confusing to get back out. Automatically creating a tracking branch often does not kick in as often (you would need a branch of the same name on a remote). And since the branch creation is reported clearly, the user should be able to undo/delete it if it's unwanted.

2019-04-02switch: only allow explicit detached HEADLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+34
"git checkout <commit>" will checkout the commit in question and detach HEAD from the current branch. It is naturally a right thing to do once you get git references. But detached HEAD is a scary concept to new users because we show a lot of warnings and stuff, and it could be hard to get out of (until you know better). To keep switch a bit more friendly to new users, we only allow entering detached HEAD mode when --detach is given.

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.

2019-03-21checkout.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].

"git checkout [<tree-ish>] <pathspec>" started reporting the number of paths that have got updated recently, but the same messages were given when "git checkout -m <pathspec>" to unresolve conflicts that have just been resolved. The message now reports these unresolved paths separately from the paths that are checked out from the index. * nd/checkout-noisy-unmerge: checkout: count and print -m paths separately checkout: update count-checkouts messages

2019-02-06checkout: count and print -m paths separatelyLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+8
Since 0f086e6dca (checkout: print something when checking out paths - 2018-11-13), this command reports how many paths have been updated from what source (either from a tree, or from the index). I forget that there's a third source: when -m is used, the merge conflict is re-created (granted, also from the index, but it's not a straight copy from the index). Count and report unmerged paths separately. There's a bit more update to avoid reporting: Recreated X merge conflicts Updated 0 paths from the index The second line is unnecessary. Though if there's no conflict recreation, we still report Updated 0 paths from the index to make it clear we're not really doing anything.

2019-02-06checkout: update count-checkouts messagesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-4/+4
Commit 0f086e6dca [1] counts the number of files updated by "git checkout -- <paths>" command and prints it. Later on 536ec1839d [2] adds the ability to remove files in "git checkout -- <paths>". This is still an update on worktree and should be reported to the user. To prepare for such an update since that commit is on track to 'master' now, the messages are rephrased to avoid "checked out" which does not imply file deletion.

"git checkout -b <new> [HEAD]" to create a new branch from the current commit and check it out ought to be a no-op in the index and the working tree in normal cases, but there are corner cases that do require updates to the index and the working tree. Running it immediately after "git clone --no-checkout" is one of these cases that an earlier optimization kicked in incorrectly, which has been fixed. * bp/checkout-new-branch-optim: checkout: fix regression in checkout -b on intitial checkout checkout: add test demonstrating regression with checkout -b on initial commit
2019-02-04revert "checkout: introduce checkout.overlayMode config"Libravatar Thomas Gummerer1-7/+1
This reverts 1495ff7da5 ("checkout: introduce checkout.overlayMode config", 2019-01-08) and thus removes the checkout.overlayMode config option. The option was originally introduced to give users the option to make the new no-overlay behaviour the default. However users may be using 'git checkout' in scripts, even though it is porcelain. Users setting the option to false may actually end up accidentally breaking scripts. With the introduction of a new subcommand that will make the behaviour the default, the config option will not be needed anymore anyway. Revert the commit and remove the config option, so we don't risk breaking scripts.

2019-01-23checkout: fix regression in checkout -b on intitial checkoutLibravatar Ben Peart1-0/+8
When doing a 'checkout -b' do a full checkout including updating the working tree when doing the initial checkout. As the new test involves an filesystem access, do it later in the sequence to give chance to other cheaper tests to leave early. This fixes the regression in behavior caused by fa655d8411 (checkout: optimize "git checkout -b <new_branch>", 2018-08-16).
