2013-01-14Merge branch 'jc/maint-fmt-merge-msg-no-edit-lose-credit' into maintLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
"git merge --no-edit" computed who were involved in the work done on the side branch, even though that information is to be discarded without getting seen in the editor. * jc/maint-fmt-merge-msg-no-edit-lose-credit: merge --no-edit: do not credit people involved in the side branch

2013-01-03merge: Honor prepare-commit-msg return codeLibravatar Antoine Pelisse1-2/+3
65969d4 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14) tried to make "git commit" and "git merge" consistent, because a merge that required user assistance has to be concluded with "git commit", but back then only "git commit" triggered prepare-commit-msg hook. When it added a call to run the prepare-commit-msg hook, however, it forgot to check the exit code from the hook like "git commit" does, and ended up replacing one inconsistency with another. When prepare-commit-msg hook that is run from "git merge" exits with a non-zero status, abort the commit.

2012-12-28merge --no-edit: do not credit people involved in the side branchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
The credit lines "By" and "Via" to credit authors and committers for their contributions on the side branch are meant as a hint to the integrator to decide whom to mention in the log message text. After the integrator saves the message in the editor, they are meant to go away and that is why they are commented out. When a merge is recorded without editing the generated message, however, its contents do not go through the normal stripspace() and these lines are left in the merge. Stop producing them when we know the merge is going to be recorded without editing, i.e. when --no-edit is given. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-08-03diff_setup_done(): return voidLibravatar Thomas Rast1-2/+1
diff_setup_done() has historically returned an error code, but lost the last nonzero return in 943d5b7 (allow diff.renamelimit to be set regardless of -M/-C, 2006-08-09). The callers were in a pretty confused state: some actually checked for the return code, and some did not. Let it return void, and patch all callers to take this into account. This conveniently also gets rid of a handful of different(!) error messages that could never be triggered anyway. Note that the function can still die().

2012-05-24ident: rename IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME to IDENT_STRICTLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
Callers who ask for ERROR_ON_NO_NAME are not so much concerned that the name will be blank (because, after all, we will fall back to using the username), but rather it is a check to make sure that low-quality identities do not end up in things like commit messages or emails (whereas it is OK for them to end up in things like reflogs). When future commits add more quality checks on the identity, each of these callers would want to use those checks, too. Rather than modify each of them later to add a new flag, let's refactor the flag. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-04-17builtin/merge.c: reduce parents earlyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-25/+40
Instead of waiting until we record the parents of resulting merge, reduce redundant parents (including our HEAD) immediately after reading them. The change to t7602 illustrates the essence of the effect of this change. The octopus merge strategy used to be fed with redundant commits only to discard them as "up-to-date", but we no longer feed such redundant commits to it and the affected test degenerates to a regular two-head merge. And obviously the known-to-be-broken test in t6028 is now fixed. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-03-01diff --stat: add config option to limit graph widthLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-0/+1
Config option diff.statGraphWidth=<width> is equivalent to --stat-graph-width=<width>, except that the config option is ignored by format-patch. For the graph-width limiting to be usable, it should happen 'automatically' once configured, hence the config option. Nevertheless, graph width limiting only makes sense when used on a wide terminal, so it should not influence the output of format-patch, which adheres to the 80-column standard.

2012-02-23merge: do not trust fstat(2) too much when checking interactivenessLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The heuristic used by "git merge" to decide if it automatically gives an editor upon clean automerge is to see if the standard input and the standard output is the same device and is a tty, we are in an interactive session. "The same device" test was done by comparing fstat(2) result on the two file descriptors (and they must match), and we asked isatty() only for the standard input (we insist that they are the same device and there is no point asking tty-ness of the standard output). The stat(2) emulation in the Windows port however does not give a usable value in the st_ino field, so even if the standard output is connected to something different from the standard input, "The same device" test may incorrectly return true. To accomodate it, add another isatty() check for the standard output stream as well. Reported-by: Erik Faye-Lund <kusmabite@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-02-05merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2
Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge" always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that happens to be a descendant of your current commit. Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be possible to say: $ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30 $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9 and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with: fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting. because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by fast forwarding. We could teach users that now they have to do $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0 but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves. When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag, even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore, this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted to add. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-01-31merge: add instructions to the commit message when editingLibravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+10
Before f824628 (merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions, 2012-01-10), git-merge only started an editor if the user explicitly asked for it with --edit. Thus it seemed unlikely that the user would need extra guidance. After f824628 the _normal_ thing is to start an editor. Give at least an indication of why we are doing it. The sentence about justification is one of the few things about standard git that are not agnostic to the workflow that the user chose. However, f824628 was proposed by Linus specifically to discourage users from merging unrelated upstream progress into topic branches. So we may as well take another step in the same direction.

2012-01-23merge: use editor by default in interactive sessionsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+34
Traditionally, a cleanly resolved merge was committed by "git merge" using the auto-generated merge commit log message without invoking the editor. After 5 years of use in the field, it turns out that people perform too many unjustified merges of the upstream history into their topic branches. These merges are not just useless, but they are often not explained well, and making the end result unreadable when it gets time for merging their history back to their upstream. Earlier we added the "--edit" option to the command, so that people can edit the log message to explain and justify their merge commits. Let's take it one step further and spawn the editor by default when we are in an interactive session (i.e. the standard input and the standard output are pointing at the same tty device). There may be existing scripts that leave the standard input and the standard output of the "git merge" connected to whatever environment the scripts were started, and such invocation might trigger the above "interactive session" heuristics. GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable can be set to "no" at the beginning of such scripts to use the historical behaviour while the script runs. Note that this backward compatibility is meant only for scripts, and we deliberately do *not* support "merge.edit = yes/no/auto" configuration option to allow people to keep the historical behaviour.

2011-12-05Copy resolve_ref() return value for longer useLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-22/+40
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer. Callers that use this value longer than a couple of statements should copy the value to avoid some hidden resolve_ref() call that may change the static buffer's value. The bug found by Tony Wang <wwwjfy@gmail.com> in builtin/merge.c demonstrates this. The first call is in cmd_merge() branch = resolve_ref("HEAD", head_sha1, 0, &flag); Then deep in lookup_commit_or_die() a few lines after, resolve_ref() may be called again and destroy "branch". lookup_commit_or_die lookup_commit_reference lookup_commit_reference_gently parse_object lookup_replace_object do_lookup_replace_object prepare_replace_object for_each_replace_ref do_for_each_ref get_loose_refs get_ref_dir get_ref_dir resolve_ref All call sites are checked and made sure that xstrdup() is called if the value should be saved.

Ignored files usually are generated files (e.g. .o files) and can be safely discarded. However sometimes users may have important files in working directory, but still want a clean "git status", so they mark them as ignored files. But in this case, these files should not be overwritten without asking first. Enable this use case with --no-overwrite-ignore, where git only sees tracked and untracked files, no ignored files. Those who mix discardable ignored files with important ones may have to sort it out themselves.

Because git_path() calls vsnprintf(), code like fd = open(git_path("SQUASH_MSG"), O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0666); die_errno(_("Could not write to '%s'"), git_path("SQUASH_MSG")); can end up printing an error indicator from vsnprintf() instead of open() by mistake. Store the path we are trying to write to in a temporary variable and pass _that_ to die_errno(), so the messages written by git cherry-pick/revert and git merge can avoid this source of confusion.
