2021-12-20merge: allow to pretend a merge is made into a different branchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
When a series of patches for a topic-B depends on having topic-A, the workflow to prepare the topic-B branch would look like this: $ git checkout -b topic-B main $ git merge --no-ff --no-edit topic-A $ git am <mbox-for-topic-B When topic-A gets updated, recreating the first merge and rebasing the rest of the topic-B, all on detached HEAD, is a useful technique. After updating topic-A with its new round of patches: $ git checkout topic-B $ prev=$(git rev-parse 'HEAD^{/^Merge branch .topic-A. into}') $ git checkout --detach $prev^1 $ git merge --no-ff --no-edit topic-A $ git rebase --onto HEAD $prev @{-1}^0 $ git checkout -B @{-1} This will (0) check out the current topic-B. (1) find the previous merge of topic-A into topic-B. (2) detach the HEAD to the parent of the previous merge. (3) merge the updated topic-A to it. (4) reapply the patches to rebuild the rest of topic-B. (5) update topic-B with the result. without contaminating the reflog of topic-B too much. topic-B@{1} is the "logically previous" state before topic-A got updated, for example. At (4), comparison (e.g. range-diff) between HEAD and @{-1} is a meaningful way to sanity check the result, and the same can be done at (5) by comparing topic-B and topic-B@{1}. But there is one glitch. The merge into the detached HEAD done in the step (3) above gives us "Merge branch 'topic-A' into HEAD", and does not say "into topic-B". Teach the "--into-name=<branch>" option to "git merge" and its underlying "git fmt-merge-message", to pretend as if we were merging into <branch>, no matter what branch we are actually merging into, when they prepare the merge message. The pretend name honors the usual "into <target>" suppression mechanism, which can be seen in the tests added here. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-11-25run-command API users: use strvec_pushl(), not argv constructionLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+1
Change a pattern of hardcoding an "argv" array size, populating it and assigning to the "argv" member of "struct child_process" to instead use "strvec_pushl()" to add data to the "args" member. This implements the same behavior as before in fewer lines of code, and moves us further towards being able to remove the "argv" member in a subsequent commit. Since we've entirely removed the "argv" variable(s) we can be sure that no potential logic errors of the type discussed in a preceding commit are being introduced here, i.e. ones where the local "argv" was being modified after the assignment to "struct child_process"'s "argv".

2021-09-27Remove ignored files by default when they are in the wayLibravatar Elijah Newren1-2/+1
Change several commands to remove ignored files by default when they are in the way. Since some commands (checkout, merge) take a --no-overwrite-ignore option to allow the user to configure this, and it may make sense to add that option to more commands (and in the case of merge, actually plumb that configuration option through to more of the backends than just the fast-forwarding special case), add little comments about where such flags would be used.

2021-09-27unpack-trees: introduce preserve_ignored to unpack_trees_optionsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+2
Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored files are overwritten by default needs to: * allocate unpack_trees_options.dir * flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags * call setup_standard_excludes AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to * call dir_clear() * deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical code. Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior. And move all the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself. While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a later commit. So, this commit introduces several locations where we manually set preserve_ignored=1. This makes it clear where code paths were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been; a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the behavior we want.

2021-09-09merge: make sparse-aware with ORTLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+3
Allow 'git merge' to operate without expanding a sparse index, at least not immediately. The index still will be expanded in a few cases: 1. If the merge strategy is 'recursive', then we enable command_requires_full_index at the start of the merge_recursive() method. We expect sparse-index users to also have the 'ort' strategy enabled. 2. With the 'ort' strategy, if the merge results in a conflicted file, then we expand the index before updating the working tree. The loop that iterates over the worktree replaces index entries and tracks 'origintal_cache_nr' which can become completely wrong if the index expands in the middle of the operation. This safety valve is important before that loop starts. A later change will focus this to only expand if we indeed have a conflict outside of the sparse-checkout cone. 3. Other merge strategies are executed as a 'git merge-X' subcommand, and those strategies are currently protected with the 'command_requires_full_index' guard. Some test updates are required, including a mistaken 'git checkout -b' that did not specify the base branch, causing merges to be fast-forward merges.

2021-09-09run_auto_maintenance(): implicitly close the object storeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+0
Before spawning the auto maintenance, we need to make sure that we release all open file handles to all the `.pack` files (and MIDX files and commit-graph files and...) so that the maintenance process has the freedom to delete those files. So far, we did this manually every time before calling `run_auto_maintenance()`. With the new `close_object_store` flag, we can do that implicitly in that function, which is more robust because future callers won't be able to forget to close the object store. Note: this changes behavior slightly, as we previously _always_ closed the object store, but now we only close the object store when actually running the auto maintenance. In practice, this should not matter (if anything, it might speed up operations where auto maintenance is disabled).

2021-08-05Change default merge backend from recursive to ortLibravatar Elijah Newren1-2/+8
There are a few reasons to switch the default: * Correctness * Extensibility * Performance I'll provide some summaries about each. === Correctness === The original impetus for a new merge backend was to fix issues that were difficult to fix within recursive's design. The success with this goal is perhaps most easily demonstrated by running the following: $ git grep -2 KNOWN_FAILURE t/ | grep -A 4 GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM $ git grep test_expect_merge_algorithm.failure.success t/ $ git grep test_expect_merge_algorithm.success.failure t/ In order, these greps show: * Seven sets of submodule tests (10 total tests) that fail with recursive but succeed with ort * 22 other tests that fail with recursive, but succeed with ort * 0 tests that pass with recursive, but fail with ort === Extensibility === Being able to perform merges without touching the working tree or index makes it possible to create new features that were difficult with the old backend: * Merging, cherry-picking, rebasing, reverting in bare repositories... or just on branches that aren't checked out. * `git diff AUTO_MERGE` -- ability to see what changes the user has made to resolve conflicts so far (see commit 5291828df8 ("merge-ort: write $GIT_DIR/AUTO_MERGE whenever we hit a conflict", 2021-03-20) * A --remerge-diff option for log/show, used to show diffs for merges that display the difference between what an automatic merge would have created and what was recorded in the merge. (This option will often result in an empty diff because many merges are clean, but for the non-clean ones it will show how conflicts were fixed including the removal of conflict markers, and also show additional changes made outside of conflict regions to e.g. fix semantic conflicts.) * A --remerge-diff-only option for log/show, similar to --remerge-diff but also showing how cherry-picks or reverts differed from what an automatic cherry-pick or revert would provide. The last three have been implemented already (though only one has been submitted upstream so far; the others were waiting for performance work to complete), and I still plan to implement the first one. === Performance === I'll quote from the summary of my final optimization for merge-ort (while fixing the testcase name from 'no-renames' to 'few-renames'): Timings Infinite merge- merge- Parallelism recursive recursive of rename merge-ort v2.30.0 current detection current ---------- --------- ----------- --------- few-renames: 18.912 s 18.030 s 11.699 s 198.3 ms mega-renames: 5964.031 s 361.281 s 203.886 s 661.8 ms just-one-mega: 149.583 s 11.009 s 7.553 s 264.6 ms Speedup factors Infinite merge- merge- Parallelism recursive recursive of rename v2.30.0 current detection merge-ort ---------- --------- ----------- --------- few-renames: 1 1.05 1.6 95 mega-renames: 1 16.5 29 9012 just-one-mega: 1 13.6 20 565 And, for partial clone users: Factor reduction in number of objects needed Infinite merge- merge- Parallelism recursive recursive of rename v2.30.0 current detection merge-ort ---------- --------- ----------- --------- mega-renames: 1 1 1 181.3 Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-07-23merge: apply autostash if merge strategy failsLibravatar Philippe Blain1-0/+1
Since 'git merge' learned '--autostash' in a03b55530a (merge: teach --autostash option, 2020-04-07), 'cmd_merge', once it is determined that we have to create a merge commit, calls 'create_autostash' if '--autostash' is given. As explained in a03b55530a, and made more abvious by the tests added in that commit, the autostash is then applied if the merge succeeds, either directly or by committing (after conflict resolution or if '--no-commit' was given), or if the merge is aborted with 'git merge --abort'. In some other cases, like the user calling 'git reset --merge' or 'git merge --quit', the autostash is not applied, but saved in the stash list. However, there exists a scenario that creates an autostash but does not apply nor save it to the stash list: if the chosen merge strategy completely fails to handle the merge, i.e. 'try_merge_strategy' returns 2. Apply the autostash in that case also. An easy way to test that is to try to merge more than two commits but explicitely ask for the 'recursive' merge strategy.

However, if 'checkout_fast_forward' fails, the autostash is not applied to the working tree, nor saved in the stash list, since the code simply calls 'goto done'.

2021-05-03merge(s): apply consistent punctuation to "up to date" messagesLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-1/+1
Although the various "Already up to date" messages resulting from merge attempts share identical phrasing, they use a mix of punctuation ranging from "." to "!" and even "Yeeah!", which leads to extra work for translators. Ease the job of translators by settling upon "." as punctuation for all such messages. While at it, take advantage of printf_ln() to further ease the translation task so translators need not worry about line termination, and fix a case of missing line termination in the (unused) merge_ort_nonrecursive() function.

2020-11-02merge,rebase,revert: select ort or recursive by config or environmentLibravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+23
Allow the testsuite to run where it treats requests for "recursive" or the default merge algorithm via consulting the environment variable GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM which is expected to either be "recursive" (the old traditional algorithm) or "ort" (the new algorithm). Also, allow folks to pick the new algorithm via config setting. It turns out builtin/merge.c already had a way to allow users to specify a different default merge algorithm: pull.twohead. Rather odd configuration name (especially to be in the 'pull' namespace rather than 'merge') but it's there. Add that same configuration to rebase, cherry-pick, and revert. This required updating the various callsites that called merge_trees() or merge_recursive() to conditionally call the new API, so this serves as another demonstration of what the new API looks and feels like. There are almost certainly some callsites that have not yet been modified to work with the new merge algorithm, but this represents the ones that I have been testing with thus far.

2020-10-20Documentation: stylistically normalize references to Signed-off-by:Libravatar Bradley M. Kuhn1-1/+1
Ted reported an old typo in the git-commit.txt and merge-options.txt. Namely, the phrase "Signed-off-by line" was used without either a definite nor indefinite article. Upon examination, it seems that the documentation (including items in Documentation/, but also option help strings) have been quite inconsistent on usage when referring to `Signed-off-by`. First, very few places used a definite or indefinite article with the phrase "Signed-off-by line", but that was the initial typo that led to this investigation. So, normalize using either an indefinite or definite article consistently. The original phrasing, in Commit 3f971fc425b (Documentation updates, 2005-08-14), is "Add Signed-off-by line". Commit 6f855371a53 (Add --signoff, --check, and long option-names. 2005-12-09) switched to using "Add `Signed-off-by:` line", but didn't normalize the former commit to match. Later commits seem to have cut and pasted from one or the other, which is likely how the usage became so inconsistent. Junio stated on the git mailing list in <xmqqy2k1dfoh.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> a preference to leave off the colon. Thus, prefer `Signed-off-by` (with backticks) for the documentation files and Signed-off-by (without backticks) for option help strings. Additionally, Junio argued that "trailer" is now the standard term to refer to `Signed-off-by`, saying that "becomes plenty clear that we are not talking about any random line in the log message". As such, prefer "trailer" over "line" anywhere the former word fits. However, leave alone those few places in documentation that use Signed-off-by to refer to the process (rather than the specific trailer), or in places where mail headers are generally discussed in comparison with Signed-off-by.

2020-09-17maintenance: replace run_auto_gc()Libravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+1
The run_auto_gc() method is used in several places to trigger a check for repo maintenance after some Git commands, such as 'git commit' or 'git fetch'. To allow for extra customization of this maintenance activity, replace the 'git gc --auto [--quiet]' call with one to 'git maintenance run --auto [--quiet]'. As we extend the maintenance builtin with other steps, users will be able to select different maintenance activities. Rename run_auto_gc() to run_auto_maintenance() to be clearer what is happening on this call, and to expose all callers in the current diff. Rewrite the method to use a struct child_process to simplify the calls slightly. Since 'git fetch' already allows disabling the 'git gc --auto' subprocess, add an equivalent option with a different name to be more descriptive of the new behavior: '--[no-]maintenance'. Update the documentation to include these options at the same time. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-09-09Merge branch 'jt/interpret-branch-name-fallback'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
"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
2020-09-02wt-status: tolerate dangling marksLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+1
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().

2020-08-03merge: make merge.renormalize work for all uses of merge machineryLibravatar Elijah Newren1-4/+0
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.
