2018-04-26rebase -i: introduce --rebase-merges=[no-]rebase-cousinsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+11
When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified), we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase. However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`), this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have <upstream> as direct ancestor. Let's illustrate that with a diagram: C / \ A - B - E - F \ / D Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`): --- C' -- / \ A - B ------ E' - F' \ / D' This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and therefore it gets rebased onto `B`. This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example above, the desired outcome would look like this: --- C' -- / \ A - B ------ E' - F' \ / -- D' -- Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase --rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

2018-04-26rebase: introduce the --rebase-merges optionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
Once upon a time, this here developer thought: wouldn't it be nice if, say, Git for Windows' patches on top of core Git could be represented as a thicket of branches, and be rebased on top of core Git in order to maintain a cherry-pick'able set of patch series? The original attempt to answer this was: git rebase --preserve-merges. However, that experiment was never intended as an interactive option, and it only piggy-backed on git rebase --interactive because that command's implementation looked already very, very familiar: it was designed by the same person who designed --preserve-merges: yours truly. Some time later, some other developer (I am looking at you, Andreas! ;-)) decided that it would be a good idea to allow --preserve-merges to be combined with --interactive (with caveats!) and the Git maintainer (well, the interim Git maintainer during Junio's absence, that is) agreed, and that is when the glamor of the --preserve-merges design started to fall apart rather quickly and unglamorously. The reason? In --preserve-merges mode, the parents of a merge commit (or for that matter, of *any* commit) were not stated explicitly, but were *implied* by the commit name passed to the `pick` command. This made it impossible, for example, to reorder commits. Not to mention to move commits between branches or, deity forbid, to split topic branches into two. Alas, these shortcomings also prevented that mode (whose original purpose was to serve Git for Windows' needs, with the additional hope that it may be useful to others, too) from serving Git for Windows' needs. Five years later, when it became really untenable to have one unwieldy, big hodge-podge patch series of partly related, partly unrelated patches in Git for Windows that was rebased onto core Git's tags from time to time (earning the undeserved wrath of the developer of the ill-fated git-remote-hg series that first obsoleted Git for Windows' competing approach, only to be abandoned without maintainer later) was really untenable, the "Git garden shears" were born [*1*/*2*]: a script, piggy-backing on top of the interactive rebase, that would first determine the branch topology of the patches to be rebased, create a pseudo todo list for further editing, transform the result into a real todo list (making heavy use of the `exec` command to "implement" the missing todo list commands) and finally recreate the patch series on top of the new base commit. That was in 2013. And it took about three weeks to come up with the design and implement it as an out-of-tree script. Needless to say, the implementation needed quite a few years to stabilize, all the while the design itself proved itself sound. With this patch, the goodness of the Git garden shears comes to `git rebase -i` itself. Passing the `--rebase-merges` option will generate a todo list that can be understood readily, and where it is obvious how to reorder commits. New branches can be introduced by inserting `label` commands and calling `merge <label>`. And once this mode will have become stable and universally accepted, we can deprecate the design mistake that was `--preserve-merges`.

2018-03-29rebase --keep-empty: always use interactive rebaseLibravatar Phillip Wood1-0/+5
rebase --merge accepts --keep-empty but just ignores it, by using an implicit interactive rebase the user still gets the rename detection of a merge based rebase but with with --keep-empty support. If rebase --keep-empty without --interactive or --merge stops for the user to resolve merge conflicts then 'git rebase --continue' will fail. This is because it uses a different code path that does not create $git_dir/rebase-apply. As rebase --keep-empty was implemented using cherry-pick it has never supported the am options and now that interactive rebases support --signoff there is no loss of functionality by using an implicit interactive rebase.

Allow --signoff to be used with --interactive and --merge. In interactive mode only commits marked to be picked, edited or reworded will be signed off. The main motivation for this patch was to allow one to run 'git rebase --exec "make check" --signoff' which is useful when preparing a patch series for publication and is more convenient than doing the signoff with another --exec command. This change also allows --root without --onto to work with --signoff as well (--root with --onto was already supported).

2018-03-23rebase: update invocation of rebase dot-sourced scriptsLibravatar Wink Saville1-0/+1
Due to historical reasons, the backend scriptlets for "git rebase" are structured a bit unusually. As originally designed, dot-sourcing them from "git rebase" was sufficient to invoke the specific backend. However, it was later discovered that some shell implementations (e.g. FreeBSD 9.x) misbehaved by continuing to execute statements following a top-level "return" rather than returning control to the next statement in "git rebase" after dot-sourcing the scriptlet. To work around this shortcoming, the whole body of git-rebase--$backend.sh was made into a shell function git_rebase__$backend, and then the very last line of the scriptlet called that function. A more normal architecture is for a dot-sourced scriptlet merely to define functions (thus acting as a function library), and for those functions to be called by the script doing the dot-sourcing. Migrate to this arrangement by moving the git_rebase__$backend call from the end of a scriptlet into "git rebase" itself. While at it, remove the large comment block from each scriptlet explaining this historic anomaly since it serves no purpose under the new normalized architecture in which a scriptlet is merely a function library.

While empty log messages are frowned upon, sometimes one finds them in older repositories (e.g. translated from another VCS [0]), or have other reasons for desiring them. The option is available in git-commit and git-cherry-pick, so it is natural to make other git tools play nicely with them. Adding this as an option allows the default to be "give the user a chance to fix", while not interrupting the user's workflow otherwise [1].

2017-07-17rebase: make resolve message clearer for inexperienced usersLibravatar William Duclot1-3/+4
The git UI can be improved by addressing the error messages to those they help: inexperienced and casual git users. To this intent, it is helpful to make sure the terms used in those messages can be understood by this segment of users, and that they guide them to resolve the problem. In particular, failure to apply a patch during a git rebase is a common problem that can be very destabilizing for the inexperienced user. It is important to lead them toward the resolution of the conflict (which is a 3-steps process, thus complex) and reassure them that they can escape a situation they can't handle with "--abort". This commit answer those two points by detailling the resolution process and by avoiding cryptic git linguo.

There are occasions when you decide to abort an in-progress rebase and move on to do something else but you forget to do "git rebase --abort" first. Or the rebase has been in progress for so long you forgot about it. By the time you realize that (e.g. by starting another rebase) it's already too late to retrace your steps. The solution is normally rm -r .git/<some rebase dir> and continue with your life. But there could be two different directories for <some rebase dir> (and it obviously requires some knowledge of how rebase works), and the ".git" part could be much longer if you are not at top-dir, or in a linked worktree. And "rm -r" is very dangerous to do in .git, a mistake in there could destroy object database or other important data. Provide "git rebase --quit" for this use case, mimicking a precedent that is "git cherry-pick --quit".

Rework "git rebase" that relied on this mistake so that it reads commit.gpgsign and pass (or not pass) the -S option to "git commit-tree" to keep the end-user expectation the same, while teaching "git commit-tree" to ignore the configuration variable. This will stop requiring the users to sign commit objects used internally as an implementation detail of "git stash". * jc/commit-tree-ignore-commit-gpgsign: commit-tree: do not pay attention to commit.gpgsign
2016-05-03commit-tree: do not pay attention to commit.gpgsignLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+4
ba3c69a9 (commit: teach --gpg-sign option, 2011-10-05) introduced a "signed commit" by teaching the --[no]-gpg-sign option and the commit.gpgsign configuration variable to various commands that create commits. Teaching these to "git commit" and "git merge", both of which are end-user facing Porcelain commands, was perfectly fine. Allowing the plumbing "git commit-tree" to suddenly change the behaviour to surprise the scripts by paying attention to commit.gpgsign was not. Among the in-tree scripts, filter-branch, quiltimport, rebase and stash are the commands that run "commit-tree". If any of these wants to allow users to always sign every single commit, they should offer their own configuration (e.g. "filterBranch.gpgsign") with an option to disable signing (e.g. "git filter-branch --no-gpgsign"). Ignoring commit.gpgsign option _obviously_ breaks the backward compatibility, but it is easy to follow the standard pattern in scripts to honor whatever configuration variable they choose to follow. E.g. case $(git config --bool commit.gpgsign) in true) sign=-S ;; *) sign= ;; esac && git commit-tree $sign ...whatever other args... Do so to make sure that "git rebase" keeps paying attention to the configuration variable, which unfortunately is a documented mistake.

There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing. * jk/rebase-no-autostash: Documentation/git-rebase: fix --no-autostash formatting rebase: support --no-autostash
2015-09-10rebase: support --no-autostashLibravatar John Keeping1-1/+4
This is documented as an option but we don't actually accept it. Support it so that it is possible to override the "rebase.autostash" config variable.

2015-04-28rebase: silence "git checkout" for noop rebaseLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When the branch to be rebased is already up to date, we "git checkout" the branch, print an "up to date" message, and end the rebase early. However, our checkout may print "Switched to branch 'foo'" or "Already on 'foo'", even if the user has asked for "--quiet". We should avoid printing these messages at all, "--quiet" or no. Since the rebase is a noop, this checkout can be seen as optimizing out these other two checkout operations (that happen in a real rebase): 1. Moving to the detached HEAD to start the rebase; we always feed "-q" to checkout there, and instead rely on our own custom message (which respects --quiet). 2. Finishing a rebase, where we move to the final branch. Here we actually use update-ref rather than git-checkout, and produce no messages.

2014-07-16rebase: omit patch-identical commits with --fork-pointLibravatar John Keeping1-3/+4
When the `--fork-point` argument was added to `git rebase`, we changed the value of $upstream to be the fork point instead of the point from which we want to rebase. When $orig_head..$upstream is empty this does not change the behaviour, but when there are new changes in the upstream we are no longer checking if any of them are patch-identical with changes in $upstream..$orig_head. Fix this by introducing a new variable to hold the fork point and using this to restrict the range as an extra (negative) revision argument so that the set of desired revisions becomes (in fork-point mode): git rev-list --cherry-pick --right-only \ $upstream...$orig_head ^$fork_point This allows us to correctly handle the scenario where we have the following topology: C --- D --- E <- dev / B <- master@{1} / o --- B' --- C* --- D* <- master where: - B' is a fixed-up version of B that is not patch-identical with B; - C* and D* are patch-identical to C and D respectively and conflict textually if applied in the wrong order; - E depends textually on D. The correct result of `git rebase master dev` is that B is identified as the fork-point of dev and master, so that C, D, E are the commits that need to be replayed onto master; but C and D are patch-identical with C* and D* and so can be dropped, so that the end result is: o --- B' --- C* --- D* --- E <- dev If the fork-point is not identified, then picking B onto a branch containing B' results in a conflict and if the patch-identical commits are not correctly identified then picking C onto a branch containing D (or equivalently D*) results in a conflict. This change allows us to handle both of these cases, where previously we either identified the fork-point (with `--fork-point`) but not the patch-identical commits *or* (with `--no-fork-point`) identified the patch-identical commits but not the fact that master had been rewritten.
