Hotfix for a recent breakage.
* fc/zsh-completion:
completion: bash: fix gitk alias regression
completion: zsh: fix file completion regression
|
|
Long time ago when the _git_complete helper was introduced, _gitk was
replaced with __gitk_main, and a placeholder for backwards compatibility
pointing to __git_wrap_main_gitk was left in place.
When "__git_complete gitk __gitk_main" was called, that created the
__git_wrap__gitk_main helper, which is just basically "__git_func_wrap
__gitk_main" plus `complete` options.
Unfortunately the commit b0a4b2d257 (completion: add support for
backwards compatibility, 2012-05-19) missed a previous instance of a
call to _gitk in _git_gitk
So, basically we had __git_wrap__git_main -> __git_func_wrap __git_main ->
__git_complete_command gitk -> _git_gitk -> _gitk ->
__git_wrap__gitk_main -> __git_func_wrap __gitk_main -> __gitk_main.
There was never any need to call __git_func_wrap twice. Since _git_gitk
is always called inside the wrapper, it can call __gitk_main directly.
And then, in commit 441ecdab37 (completion: bash: remove old compat
wrappers, 2020-10-27) _gitk was removed, which triggers the following
error:
_git_gitk:9: command not found: _gitk
Let's call the correct function: __gitk_main.

It is possible for the name of an alias to end with the name of another
alias, in which case the code will incorrectly detect a loop.
We can fix that by adding an extra space between words.

It is possible to have recursive aliases like:

The current behavior of git checkout/switch is that --guess is currently
enabled by default. However, some users may not wish for this to happen
automatically. Instead of forcing users to specify --no-guess manually
each time, teach these commands the checkout.guess configuration
variable that gives users the option to set a default behavior.
Teach the completion script to recognize the new config variable and
disable DWIM logic if it is set to false.

onto diff. As a result, they share common command-line options. Instead

The --orphan option is used to create a local branch which is detached
from the current history. In git switch, it always resets to the empty
tree, and thus the only completion we can provide is a branch name.
Follow the same rules for -c/-C (and -b/-B) when completing the argument
to --orphan.
In the case of git switch, after we complete the argument, there is
nothing more we can complete for git switch, so do not even try. Nothing
else would be valid.
In the case of git checkout, --orphan takes a start point which it uses
to determine the checked out tree, even though it created orphaned
history.
Update the previously added test cases as they are now passing.

A previous commit added several test cases highlighting the subpar
completion logic for -c/-C and -b/-B when completing git switch and git
checkout.
In order to distinguish completing the argument vs the start-point for
this option, we now use the wordlist to determine the previous full word
on the command line.
If it's -c or -C (-b/-B for checkout), then we know that we are
completing the argument for the branch name.
Given that a user who already knows the branch name they want to
complete will simply not use completion, it makes sense to complete the
small subset of local branches when completing the argument for -c/-C.
In all other cases, if -c/-C are on the command line but are not the
most recent option, then we must be completing a start-point, and should
allow completing against all references.
Update the -c/-C and -b/-B tests to indicate they now pass.

Current completion for the --track option of git switch and git checkout
is sub par. In addition to the DWIM logic of a bare branch name, --track
has DWIM logic to convert specified remote/branch names into a local
branch tracking that remote. For example
$git switch --track origin/master
This will create a local branch name master, that tracks the master
branch of the origin remote.
In fact, git switch --track on its own will not accept other forms of
references. These must instead be specified manually via the -c/-C/-b/-B
options.
Introduce __git_remote_heads() and the "remote-heads" mode for
__git_complete_refs. Use this when the --track option is provided while
completing in _git_switch and _git_checkout. Just as in the --detach
case, we never enable DWIM mode for --track, because it doesn't make
sense.
It should be noted that completion support is still a bit sub par when
it comes to handling -c/-C and --orphan. This will be resolved in
a future change.

Just like git switch, we should not complete DWIM remote branch names
if --detach has been specified. To avoid this, refactor _git_checkout in
a similar way to _git_switch.
Note that we don't simply clear dwim_opt when we find -d or --detach, as
we will be adding other modes and checks, making this flow easier to
follow.
Update the previously failing tests to show that the breakage has been
resolved.

Add a new --mode option to __git_complete_refs, which allows changing
the behavior to call __git_heads instead of __git_refs.
By passing --mode=heads, __git_complete_refs will only output local
branches. This enables using "--mode=heads --dwim" to enable listing
local branches and the remote unique branch names for DWIM.
Refactor completion support to use the new mode option, rather than
calling __git_heads directly. This has the advantage that we can now
correctly allow local branches along with suitable DWIM refs, rather
than only allowing DWIM when we complete all references.
Choose what mode it uses when calling __git_complete_refs. If -d or
--detach have been provided, then simply complete all refs, but
*without* the DWIM option as these DWIM names won't work properly in
--detach mode.
Otherwise, call __git_complete_refs with the default dwim_opt value and
use the new "heads" mode.
In this way, the basic support for completing just "git switch <TAB>"
will result in only local branches and remote unique names for DWIM.
The basic no-options tests for git switch, as well as several of the
-c/-C tests now pass, so remove the known breakage tags.

A new helper, __git_find_last_on_cmdline is introduced, similar to the
already existing __git_find_on_cmdline, but which operates in reverse,
finding the *last* matching word of the provided wordlist.
Use this in a new __git_checkout_default_dwim_mode() function that will
determine when to enable listing of DWIM remote branches.
The __git_find_last_on_cmdline() function is used to determine which
--guess or --no-guess is in effect. If either one is provided, then we
unconditionally enable or disable the DWIM mode based on the last
provided option.
If neither --guess nor --no-guess is provided, then we check for
--no-track, and finally for GIT_COMPLETION_CHECKOUT_NO_GUESS=1.
This function is then used in _git_switch and _git_checkout to improve
the handling for when we enable listing of these DWIM remote branches.
This new logic is more robust, as we will correctly identify superseded
options, and ensure that both _git_switch and _git_checkout enable DWIM
in similar ways.
We can now update a few tests to indicate they pass. A few of the tests
previously added to highlight issues with the old DWIM logic still fail.
This is because of a separate issue related to the default completion
behavior of git switch, which will be addressed in a future change.
Additionally, due to this change, a few tests for the -b/-B handling of
git checkout now fail. This is a minor regression, and will be fixed by
a following change that improves the overall handling of -b/-B. Mark
these tests as known breakages for now.

__git_complete_refs is the main function used for completing references.
It is primarily used as a wrapper around __git_refs, and is easier to
extend since its arguments are option-like.
One major downside of __git_complete_refs and __git_refs currently, is
the lack of ability to complete only a subset of refs such as branches
(refs/heads) or tags (refs/tags).
Normally, a caller might just decide to use __git_heads() or
__git_tags(). However, in the case of git-switch, it is useful to
complete both branches *and* DWIM remote branch names.
Due to the complexity and implementation of __git_refs, it is not easy
to extend it to support listing only a subset of references.
Instead, we can extend __git_complete_refs to do this. For this to be
done, we must first ensure that "--dwim" support is not tied to calling
__git_refs.
Instead of passing $dwim into __git_refs, we can implement
a __gitcomp_direct_append function which can append to COMPREPLY after
a call to __gitcomp_direct.
If --dwim is passed to __git_complete_refs, use __gitcomp_direct_append
to add the output of __git_dwim_remote_heads to the completion list.
In this way, --dwim support is now independent of calling __git_refs.
A future change will add an additional option to control what set of
references __git_complete_refs will output.

__git_refs() has the ability to report unique remote names for
supporting completion of remote branch names for the DWIMery of git
checkout and git switch.
For git checkout, this is fine, because it always supports completing
all local references.
However, git switch by default only supports either switching branches
or using this DWIMery to create a local branch tracking the remote
branch.
Future work to cleanup and improve completion support for git switch
will be aided if the remote branch names can be completed separately
from __git_refs.
Extract this logic to a function __git_dwim_remote_heads(), and use it
in __git_refs.

The __git_complete_refs uses the "--track" option to specify when to
enable listing of unique remote branches which are used by the DWIM
logic of git checkout and git switch.
Using the term '--track' here is confusing because the git commands
themselves have '--track' as an argument. Additionally, the completion
logic for _git_switch also checks for --track. Keeping the meaning of
track_opt and --track for __git_complete_refs straight from the --track
git switch and git checkout option is difficult when reading this code.
Use the option '--dwim' instead, indicating this is about enabling or
disabling logic related to DWIM mode. Also rename the local variable
track_opt to dwim_opt to further reduce the confusion when reading the
completion code for _git_switch.
Because it is plausible for users to have developed their own
completions which rely on __git_complete_ref, keep --track as a synonym
for --dwim, even though we no longer use it in any of the core git
completion logic. Add a comment explaining why it remains as an
alternative spelling for --dwim.

When clearing the builtin operations on re-sourcing in the ZSH case we

df70b190 (completion: make stash -p and alias for stash push -p,
2018-04-20) wanted to make sure "git stash -p <TAB>" offers the same
completion as "git stash push -p <TAB>", but it did so by forcing the
$subcommand to be "push" whenever then "-p" option is found on the
command line.
This harms any subcommand that can take the "-p" option---even when the
subcommand is explicitly given, e.g. "git stash show -p", the code added
by the change would overwrite the $subcommand the user gave us.
Fix it by making sure that the defaulting to "push" happens only when
there is no $subcommand given yet.

As reported on the git mailing list, since git-2.25,
git add untracked-dir/
has been tab completing to
git add untracked-dir/./
The cause for this was that with commit b9670c1f5e (dir: fix checks on
common prefix directory, 2019-12-19),
git ls-files -o --directory untracked-dir/
(or the equivalent `git -C untracked-dir ls-files -o --directory`) began
reporting
untracked-dir/
instead of listing paths underneath that directory. It may also be
worth noting that the real command in question was
git -C untracked-dir ls-files -o --directory '*'
which is equivalent to
git ls-files -o --directory 'untracked-dir/*'
which behaves the same for the purposes of this issue (the '*' can match
the empty string), but becomes relevant for the proposed fix.
At first, based on the report, I decided to try to view this as a
regression and tried to find a way to recover the old behavior without
breaking other stuff, or at least breaking as little as possible.
However, in the end, I couldn't figure out a way to do it that wouldn't
just cause lots more problems than it solved. The old behavior was a
bug:
* Although older git would avoid cleaning anything with `git clean -f
.git`, it would wipe out everything under that direcotry with `git
clean -f .git/`. Despite the difference in command used, this is
relevant because the exact same change that fixed clean changed the
behavior of ls-files.
* Older git would report different results based solely on presence or
absence of a trailing slash for $SUBDIR in the command `git ls-files
-o --directory $SUBDIR`.
* Older git violated the documented behavior of not recursing into
directories that matched the pathspec when --directory was
specified.
* And, after all, commit b9670c1f5e (dir: fix checks on common prefix
directory, 2019-12-19) didn't overlook this issue; it explicitly
stated that the behavior of the command was being changed to bring
it inline with the docs.
(Also, if it helps, despite that commit being merged during the 2.25
series, this bug was not reported during the 2.25 cycle, nor even during
most of the 2.26 cycle -- it was reported a day before 2.26 was
released. So the impact of the change is at least somewhat small.)
Instead of relying on a bug of ls-files in reporting the wrong content,
change the invocation of ls-files used by git-completion to make it grab
paths one depth deeper. Do this by changing '$DIR/*' (match $DIR/ plus
0 or more characters) into '$DIR/?*' (match $DIR/ plus 1 or more
characters). Note that the '?' character should not be added when
trying to complete a filename (e.g. 'git ls-files -o --directory
"merge.c?*"' would not correctly return "merge.c" when such a file
exists), so we have to make sure to add the '?' character only in cases
where the path specified so far is a directory.

Completion update.
* kk/complete-diff-color-moved:
completion: add diff --color-moved[-ws]
|

"git am --short-current-patch" is a way to show the piece of e-mail
for the stopped step, which is not suitable to directly feed "git
apply" (it is designed to be a good "git am" input). It learned a
new option to show only the patch part.
* pb/am-show-current-patch:

parse-options: add testcases for OPT_CMDMODE()
|
|
These options are available since git v2.15, but somehow
eluded from the completion script.
Note that while --color-moved-ws= accepts comma-separated
list of values, there is no (easy?) way to make it work
with completion (see e.g. [1]).

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:

cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable
or base64. Add a new mode to "git am --show-current-patch" in order to
straighten the suggestion.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".
