2006-07-11Log ref changes made by git-merge and git-pull.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+2
When git-merge updates HEAD as a result of a merge record what happened during the merge into the reflog associated with HEAD (if any). The log reports who caused the update (git-merge or git-pull, by invoking git-merge), what the remote ref names were and the type of merge process used. The merge information can be useful when reviewing a reflog for a branch such as `master` where fast forward and trivial in index merges might be common as the user tracks an upstream.

When git-fetch updates a reference record in the associated reflog what type of update took place and who caused it (git-fetch or git-pull, by invoking git-fetch). Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-06-24git-merge --squashLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+5
Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch, recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the cruft from the history. The topic is then abandoned or forked off again from that point at the mainline. The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a strict superset of the mainline, like this: git checkout mainline git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch : fix conflicts if any rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message' git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing special --no-commit could do to begin with. This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge case. The user-level operation would be the same in both cases: git checkout mainline git pull --squash . that-topic-branch : fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be : no conflict if fast forward. git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message' git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new option does not have any effect. This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-03-22git-pull: further safety while on tracking branch.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
Running 'git pull' while on the tracking branch has a built-in safety valve to fast-forward the index and working tree to match the branch head, but it errs on the safe side too cautiously. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-02-12Avoid using "git-var -l" until it gets fixed.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
This is to be nicer to people with unusable GECOS field. "git-var -l" is currently broken in that when used by a user who does not have a usable GECOS field and has not corrected it by exporting GIT_COMMITTER_NAME environment variable it dies when it tries to output GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT (same thing for AUTHOR). "git-pull" used "git-var -l" only because it needed to get a configuration variable before "git-repo-config --get" was introduced. Use the latter tool designed exactly for this purpose. "git-sh-setup" used "git-var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT" without actually wanting to use its value. The only purpose was to cause the command to check and barf if the repository format version recorded in the $GIT_DIR/config file is too new for us to deal with correctly. Instead, use "repo-config --get" on a random property and see if it die()s, and check if the exit status is 128 (comes from die -- missing variable is reported with exit status 1, so we can tell that case apart).

Now all the users of this script detect its exit status and die, complaining that it is outside git repository. So move the code that dies from all callers to git-sh-setup script. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-09Make git-recursive the default strategy for git-pull.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+14
This does two things: - It changes the hardcoded default merge strategy for two-head git-pull from resolve to recursive. - .git/config file acquires two configuration items. pull.twohead names the strategy for two-head case, and pull.octopus names the strategy for octopus merge. IOW you are paranoid, you can have the following lines in your .git/config file and keep using git-merge-resolve when pulling one remote: [pull] twohead = resolve OTOH, you can say this: [pull] twohead = resolve twohead = recursive to try quicker resolve first, and when it fails, fall back to recursive.

2005-11-06Refactored merge options into separate merge-options.txt.Libravatar Jon Loeliger1-1/+11
Refactored fetch options into separate fetch-options.txt. Made git-merge use merge-options. Made git-fetch use fetch-options. Made git-pull use merge-options and fetch-options. Added --help option to git-pull and git-format-patch scripts. Rewrote Documentation/Makefile to dynamically determine include dependencies.

2005-11-03Add --no-commit to git-merge/git-pull.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
With --no-commit flag, git-pull will perform the merge but pretends as if the merge needed a hand resolve even if automerge cleanly resolves, to give the user a chance to add further changes and edit the commit message. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-29Use git-merge in git-pull (second try).Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+44
This again makes git-pull to use git-merge, so that different merge strategy can be specified from the command line. Without explicit strategy parameter, it defaults to git-merge-resolve if only one remote is pulled, and git-merge-octopus otherwise, to keep the default behaviour of the command the same as the original. Also this brings another usability measure: -n flag from the command line, if given, is passed to git-merge to prevent it from running the diffstat at the end of the merge.

2005-09-28Use git-update-ref in scripts.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
This uses the git-update-ref command in scripts for safer updates. Also places where we used to read HEAD ref by using "cat" were fixed to use git-rev-parse. This will matter when we start using symbolic references. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-09-28Fix default pull not to do an unintended Octopus.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
The refspecs specified in the .git/remotes/<remote> on the "Pull: " lines are for fetching multiple heads in one go, but most of the time making an Octopus out of them is not what is wanted. Make git-fetch leave the marker in .git/FETCH_HEAD file so that later stages can tell which heads are for merging and which are not. Tom Prince made me realize how stupid the original behaviour was.

2005-09-22Prettyprint octopus merge message.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+2
Including the current branch in the list of heads being merged was not a good idea, so drop it. And shorten the message by grouping branches and tags together to form a single line. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+44
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.
