Improve error and advice messages given locally when "git push"
refuses when it cannot compute fast-forwardness by separating these
cases from the normal "not a fast-forward; merge first and push
again" case.
* jc/push-reject-reasons:
push: finishing touches to explain REJECT_ALREADY_EXISTS better
push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE
push: further simplify the logic to assign rejection reason
push: further clean up fields of "struct ref"
|
|
Now that "already exists" errors are given only when a push tries to
update an existing ref in refs/tags/ hierarchy, we can say "the
tag", instead of "the destination reference", and that is far easier
to understand.

When we push to update an existing ref, if:
* the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
* the object we are pushing is not a commit,
it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.
If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.
In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.
Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.

Add support for a pre-push hook which can be used to determine if the
set of refs to be pushed is suitable for the target repository. The
hook is run with two arguments specifying the name and location of the
destination repository.
Information about what is to be pushed is provided by sending lines of
the following form to the hook's standard input:
<local ref> SP <local sha1> SP <remote ref> SP <remote sha1> LF
If the hook exits with a non-zero status, the push will be aborted.
This will allow the script to determine if the push is acceptable based
on the target repository and branch(es), the commits which are to be
pushed, and even the source branches in some cases.

References are allowed to update from one commit-ish to another if the
former is an ancestor of the latter. This behavior is oriented to
branches which are expected to move with commits. Tag references are
expected to be static in a repository, though, thus an update to
something under refs/tags/ should be rejected unless the update is
forced.

In the next major release, we will switch "git push [$there]" that
does not say what to push from the traditional "matching" to the
updated "simple" semantics, that pushes the current branch to the
branch with the same name only when the current branch is set to
integrate with that remote branch (all other cases will error out).

New users tend to work on one branch at a time and push the result
out. The current and upstream modes of push is a more suitable default
mode than matching mode for these people, but neither is surprise-free
depending on how the project is set up. Introduce a "simple" mode that
is a subset of "upstream" but only works when the branch is named the same
between the remote and local repositories.
The plan is to make it the new default when push.default is not
configured.

* mm/simple-push:
push.default doc: explain simple after upstream
push: document the future default change for push.default (matching -> simple)
t5570: use explicit push refspec
push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
t5528-push-default.sh: add helper functions
Undocument deprecated alias 'push.default=tracking'
Documentation: explain push.default option a bit more
|
|
When calling "git push" without argument, we want to allow Git to do
something simple to explain and safe. push.default=matching is unsafe
when used to push to shared repositories, and hard to explain to
beginners in some contexts. It is debatable whether 'upstream' or
'current' is the safest or the easiest to explain, so introduce a new
mode called 'simple' that is the intersection of them: push to the
upstream branch, but only if it has the same name remotely. If not, give
an error that suggests the right command to push explicitely to
'upstream' or 'current'.
A question is whether to allow pushing when no upstream is configured. An
argument in favor of allowing the push is that it makes the new mode work
in more cases. On the other hand, refusing to push when no upstream is
configured encourages the user to set the upstream, which will be
beneficial on the next pull. Lacking better argument, we chose to deny
the push, because it will be easier to change in the future if someone
shows us wrong.

The user can say "git push" without specifying any refspec. When using
the "upstream" semantics via the push.default configuration, the user
wants to update the "upstream" branch of the current branch, which is the
branch at a remote repository the current branch is set to integrate with,
with this command.
However, there are cases that such a "git push" that uses the "upstream"
semantics does not make sense:
- The current branch does not have branch.$name.remote configured. By
definition, "git push" that does not name where to push to will not
know where to push to. The user may explicitly say "git push $there",
but again, by definition, no branch at repository $there is set to
integrate with the current branch in this case and we wouldn't know
which remote branch to update.
- The current branch does have branch.$name.remote configured, but it
does not specify branch.$name.merge that names what branch at the
remote this branch integrates with. "git push" knows where to push in
this case (or the user may explicitly say "git push $remote" to tell us
where to push), but we do not know which remote branch to update.
- The current branch does have its remote and upstream branch configured,
but the user said "git push $there", where $there is not the remote
named by "branch.$name.remote". By definition, no branch at repository
$there is set to integrate with the current branch in this case, and
this push is not meant to update any branch at the remote repository
$there.
The first two cases were already checked correctly, but the third case was
not checked and we ended up updating the branch named branch.$name.merge
at repository $there, which was totally bogus.

Pushing a non-fast-forward update to a remote repository will result in
an error, but the hint text doesn't provide the correct resolution in
every case. Give better resolution advice in three push scenarios:
1) If you push your current branch and it triggers a non-fast-forward
error, you should merge remote changes with 'git pull' before pushing
again.
2) If you push to a shared repository others push to, and your local
tracking branches are not kept up to date, the 'matching refs' default
will generate non-fast-forward errors on outdated branches. If this is
your workflow, the 'matching refs' default is not for you. Consider
setting the 'push.default' configuration variable to 'current' or
'upstream' to ensure only your current branch is pushed.
3) If you explicitly specify a ref that is not your current branch or
push matching branches with ':', you will generate a non-fast-forward
error if any pushed branch tip is out of date. You should checkout the
offending branch and merge remote changes before pushing again.
Teach transport.c to recognize these scenarios and configure push.c
to hint for them. If 'git push's default behavior changes or we
discover more scenarios, extension is easy. Standardize on the
advice API and add three new advice variables, 'pushNonFFCurrent',
'pushNonFFDefault', and 'pushNonFFMatching'. Setting any of these
to 'false' will disable their affiliated advice. Setting
'pushNonFastForward' to false will disable all three, thus preserving the
config option for users who already set it, but guaranteeing new
users won't disable push advice accidentally.

When pushing groups of refs to a remote, there is no simple way to remove
old refs that still exist at the remote that is no longer updated from us.
This will allow us to remove such refs from the remote.
With this change, running this command
$ git push --prune remote refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
removes refs/remotes/laptop/foo from the remote if we do not have branch
"foo" locally anymore.

By default, progress output is disabled if stderr is not a terminal.
The --progress option can be used to force progress output anyways.
Conversely, --no-progress does not force progress output. In particular,
if stderr is a terminal, progress output is enabled.
This is unintuitive. Change --no-progress to force output off.

When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a
submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that
contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the
superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available
on the server.
This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When
using this option git will check that all submodule commits that
are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule.
To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has
been removed from combined-diff.c.

This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.
To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).
We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.
Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

A common scenario is to create a new branch and push it (checkout -b &&
push [--set-upstream]). In this case, the user was getting "The current
branch %s has no upstream branch.", which doesn't help much.
Provide the user a command to push the current branch. To avoid the
situation in the future, suggest --set-upstream.
While we're there, also improve the error message in the "detached HEAD"
case. We mention explicitly "detached HEAD" since this is the keyword to

Users are sometimes confused with two different types of "tracking" behavior
in Git: "remote-tracking" branches (e.g. refs/remotes/*/*) versus the
merge/rebase relationship between a local branch and its @{upstream}
(controlled by branch.foo.remote and branch.foo.merge config settings).
When the push.default is set to 'tracking', it specifies that a branch should
be pushed to its @{upstream} branch. In other words, setting push.default to
'tracking' applies only to the latter of the above two types of "tracking"
behavior.
In order to make this more understandable to the user, we rename the
push.default == 'tracking' option to push.default == 'upstream'.
push.default == 'tracking' is left as a deprecated synonym for 'upstream'.

This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more
pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>
Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n)
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c
builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c
you get
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type]
builtin/ builtin.h
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to]
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type]
shortlog.c shortlog.o
[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c
which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.
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. But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
