2008-05-21git-merge: exclude unnecessary options from OPTIONS_SPECLibravatar Miklos Vajna1-3/+1
gitcli(5) already documents them, and there are no options named --no-no-stat, --no-no-summary and --no-no-log. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna <vmiklos@frugalware.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-04-12merge, pull: add '--(no-)log' command line optionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-2/+6
These are the command line option equivalents of the 'merge.log' config variable. The patch also updates documentation and bash completion accordingly, and adds a test. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-04-12merge, pull: introduce '--(no-)stat' optionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-4/+6
This option has the same effect as '--(no-)summary' (i.e. whether to show a diffsat at the end of the merge or not), and it is consistent with the '--stat' option of other git commands. Documentation, tests, and bash completion are updaed accordingly, and the old --summary option is marked as being deprected.

The following patch will introduce a new configuration variable, "format.pretty", from then on the pretty format without specifying "--pretty" might not be the default "--pretty=medium", it depends on the user's config.

2008-03-03git-merge.sh: better handling of combined --squash,--no-ff,--no-commit optionsLibravatar Gerrit Pape1-6/+11
git-merge used to use either the --squash,--no-squash, --no-ff,--ff, --no-commit,--commit option, whichever came last in the command line. This lead to some un-intuitive behavior, having git merge --no-commit --no-ff <branch> actually commit the merge. Now git-merge respects --no-commit together with --no-ff, as well as other combinations of the options. However, this broke a selftest in t/t7600-merge.sh which expected to have --no-ff completely override the --squash option, so that git merge --squash --no-ff <branch> fast-forwards, and makes a merge commit; combining --squash with --no-ff doesn't really make sense though, and is now refused by git-merge. The test is adapted to test --no-ff without the preceding --squash, and another test is added to make sure the --squash --no-ff combination is refused.

2007-09-23git-merge: add --ff and --no-ff optionsLibravatar Lars Hjemli1-6/+16
These new options can be used to control the policy for fast-forward merges: --ff allows it (this is the default) while --no-ff will create a merge commit. Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-09-23git-merge: add support for --commit and --no-squashLibravatar Lars Hjemli1-2/+6
These options can be used to override --no-commit and --squash, which is needed since --no-commit and --squash now can be specified as default merge options in $GIT_DIR/config. The change also introduces slightly different behavior for --no-commit: when specified, it explicitly overrides --squash. Earlier, 'git merge --squash --no-commit' would result in a squashed merge (i.e. no $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD was created) but with this patch the command will behave as if --squash hadn't been specified.

2007-09-23git-merge: add support for branch.<name>.mergeoptionsLibravatar Lars Hjemli1-0/+21
This enables per branch configuration of merge options. Currently, the most useful options to specify per branch are --squash, --summary/--no-summary and possibly --strategy, but all options are supported. Note: Options containing whitespace will _not_ be handled correctly. Luckily, the only option which can include whitespace is --message and it doesn't make much sense to give that option a default value.

2007-09-23Supplant the "while case ... break ;; esac" idiomLibravatar David Kastrup1-1/+1
A lot of shell scripts contained stuff starting with while case "$#" in 0) break ;; esac and similar. I consider breaking out of the condition instead of the body od the loop ugly, and the implied "true" value of the non-matching case is not really obvious to humans at first glance. It happens not to be obvious to some BSD shells, either, but that's because they are not POSIX-compliant. In most cases, this has been replaced by a straight condition using "test". "case" has the advantage of being faster than "test" on vintage shells where "test" is not a builtin. Since none of them is likely to run the git scripts, anyway, the added readability should be worth the change. A few loops have had their termination condition expressed differently.

The post-merge hook enables one to hook in for `git pull` operations in order to check and/or change attributes of a work tree from the hook.

2007-09-06Invoke "git gc --auto" from commit, merge, am and rebase.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1

2007-08-27git-merge: do up-to-date check also for all strategiesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-15/+20
This clarifies the logic to omit fast-forward check and omit trivial merge before running the specified strategy. The "index_merge" variable started out as a flag to say "do not do anything clever", but when recursive was changed to skip the trivial merge, the semantics were changed and the variable alone does not make sense anymore. This splits the variable into two, allow_fast_forward (which is almost always true, and avoids making a merge commit when the other commit is a descendant of our branch, but is set to false for ours and subtree) and allow_trivial_merge (which is false for ours, recursive and subtree). Unlike the earlier implementation, the "ours" strategy allows an up-to-date condition. When we are up-to-date, the result will be our commit, and by definition, we will have our tree as the result.

2007-07-06Enable "git rerere" by the config variable rerere.enabledLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+1
Earlier, "git rerere" was enabled by creating the directory .git/rr-cache. That is definitely not in line with most other features, which are enabled by a config variable. So, check the config variable "rerere.enabled". If it is set to "false" explicitely, do not activate rerere, even if .git/rr-cache exists. This should help when you want to disable rerere temporarily. If "rerere.enabled" is not set at all, fall back to detection of the directory .git/rr-cache.

2007-04-07A new merge stragety 'subtree'.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive. When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A, B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of reading the trees at the same level. This adjustment is also done to the common ancestor tree. If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/ subdirectory of the latter. The tree object of git-gui's toplevel is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui' and records object name of the true tree, before being used by the 3-way merge code. If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel. The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree. Heuristics galore! That's the git way ;-).

This updates five commands (merge, pull, rebase, revert and cherry-pick) so that they can be started from a subdirectory. This may not actually be what we want to do.

2007-01-10Improve merge performance by avoiding in-index merges.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-17/+23
In the early days of Git we performed a 3-way read-tree based merge before attempting any specific merge strategy, as our core merge strategies of merge-one-file and merge-recursive were slower script based programs which took far longer to execute. This was a good performance optimization in the past, as most merges were able to be handled strictly by `read-tree -m -u`. However now that merge-recursive is a C based program which performs a full 3-way read-tree before it starts running we need to pay the cost of the 3-way read-tree twice if we have to do any sort of file level merging. This slows down some classes of simple merges which `read-tree -m -u` could not handle but which merge-recursive does automatically. For a really trivial merge which can be handled entirely by `read-tree -m -u`, skipping the read-tree and just going directly into merge-recursive saves on average 50 ms on my PowerPC G4 system. May sound odd, but it does appear to be true. In a really simple merge which needs to use merge-recursive to handle a file that was modified on both branches, skipping the read-tree in git-merge saves on average almost 100 ms (on the same PowerPC G4) as we avoid doing some work twice. We only avoid `read-tree -m -u` if the only strategy to use is merge-recursive, as not all merge strategies perform as well as merge-recursive does. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

If the user tries to run a porcelainish command which requires a working directory in a bare repository they may get unexpected results which are difficult to predict and may differ from command to command. Instead we should detect that the current repository is a bare repository and refuse to run the command there, as there is no working directory associated with it.

2007-01-01fail pull/merge early in the middle of conflicted mergeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
After a pull that results in a conflicted merge, a new user often tries another "git pull" in desperation. When the index is unmerged, merge backends correctly bail out without touching either index nor the working tree, so this does not make the wound any worse. The user will however see several lines of messsages during this process, such as "filename: needs merge", "you need to resolve your current index first", "Merging...", and "Entry ... would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge.". They are unnecessarily alarming, and cause useful conflict messages from the first pull scroll off the top of the terminal. This changes pull and merge to run "git-ls-files -u" upfront and stop them much earlier than we currently do. Old timers may know better and would not to try pulling again before cleaning things up; this change adds extra overhead that is unnecessary for them. But this would be worth paying for to save new people from needless confusion. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Junio rightly pointed out that the --reflog-action parameter was starting to get out of control, as most porcelain code needed to hand it to other porcelain and plumbing alike to ensure the reflog contained the top-level user action and not the lower-level actions it invoked. At Junio's suggestion we are introducing the new set_reflog_action function to all shell scripts, allowing them to declare early on what their default reflog name should be, but this setting only takes effect if the caller has not already set the GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable.

2006-12-23Display 'theirs' branch name when possible in merge.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+2
Displaying the SHA1 of 'their' branch (the branch being merged into the current branch) is not nearly as friendly as just displaying the name of that branch, especially if that branch is already local to this repository. git-merge now sets the environment variable 'GITHEAD_%(sha1)=%(name)' for each argument it gets passed, making the actual input name that resolved to the commit '%(sha1)' easily available to the invoked merge strategy. git-merge-recursive makes use of these environment variables when they are available by using '%(name)' whenever it outputs the commit identification rather than '%(sha1)'.
