2010-02-24submodules: ensure clean environment when operating in a submoduleLibravatar Giuseppe Bilotta1-10/+10
git-submodule used to take care of clearing GIT_DIR whenever it operated on a submodule index or configuration, but forgot to unset GIT_WORK_TREE or other repo-local variables. This would lead to failures e.g. when GIT_WORK_TREE was set. This only happened in very unusual contexts such as operating on the main worktree from outside of it, but since "git-gui: set GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE after setup" (a9fa11fe5bd5978bb) such failures could also be provoked by invoking an external tool such as "git submodule update" from the Git Gui in a standard setup. Solve by using the newly introduced clear_local_git_env() shell function to ensure that all repo-local environment variables are unset.

2010-01-17git status: Show uncommitted submodule changes too when enabledLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+5
When the configuration variable status.submodulesummary is not 0 or false, "git status" shows the submodule summary of the staged submodule commits. But it did not show the summary of those commits not yet staged in the supermodule, making it hard to see what will not be committed. The output of "submodule summary --for-status" has been changed from "# Modified submodules:" to "# Submodule changes to be committed:" for the already staged changes. "# Submodules changed but not updated:" has been added for changes that will not be committed. This is much clearer and consistent with the output for regular files.

2009-11-23Protect scripted Porcelains from GREP_OPTIONS insanityLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
If the user has exported the GREP_OPTIONS environment variable, the output from "grep" and "egrep" in scripted Porcelains may be different from what they expect. For example, we may want to count number of matching lines, by "grep" piped to "wc -l", and GREP_OPTIONS=-C3 will break such use. The approach taken by this change to address this issue is to protect only our own use of grep/egrep. Because we do not unset it at the beginning of our scripts, hook scripts run from the scripted Porcelains are exposed to the same insanity this environment variable causes when grep/egrep is used to implement logic (e.g. "grep | wc -l"), and it is entirely up to the hook scripts to protect themselves. On the other hand, applypatch-msg hook may want to show offending words in the proposed commit log message using grep to the end user, and the user might want to set GREP_OPTIONS=--color to paint the match more visibly. The approach to protect only our own use without unsetting the environment variable globally will allow this use case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-06-03git-submodule: add support for --merge.Libravatar Johan Herland1-1/+10
'git submodule update --merge' merges the commit referenced by the superproject into your local branch, instead of checking it out on a detached HEAD. As evidenced by the addition of "git submodule update --rebase", it is useful to provide alternatives to the default 'checkout' behaviour of "git submodule update". One such alternative is, when updating a submodule to a new commit, to merge that commit into the current local branch in that submodule. This is useful in workflows where you want to update your submodule from its upstream, but you cannot use --rebase, because you have downstream people working on top of your submodule branch, and you don't want to disrupt their work.

2009-06-03Rename submodule.<name>.rebase to submodule.<name>.updateLibravatar Johan Herland1-15/+17
The addition of "submodule.<name>.rebase" demonstrates the usefulness of alternatives to the default behaviour of "git submodule update". However, by naming the config variable "submodule.<name>.rebase", and making it a boolean choice, we are artificially constraining future git versions that may want to add _more_ alternatives than just "rebase". Therefore, while "submodule.<name>.rebase" is not yet in a stable git release, future-proof it, by changing it from submodule.<name>.rebase = true/false to submodule.<name>.update = rebase/checkout where "checkout" specifies the default behaviour of "git submodule update" (checking out the new commit to a detached HEAD), and "rebase" specifies the --rebase behaviour (where the current local branch in the submodule is rebase onto the new commit). Thus .update == checkout is equivalent to .rebase == false, and .update == rebase is equivalent to .rebase == true. Finally, leaving .update unset is equivalent to leaving .rebase unset. In future git versions, other alternatives to "git submodule update" behaviour can be included by adding them to the list of allowable values for the submodule.<name>.update variable.

'git submodule update --rebase' rebases your local branch on top of what would have been checked out to a detached HEAD otherwise. In some cases, detaching the HEAD when updating a submodule complicates the workflow to commit to this submodule (checkout master, rebase, then commit). For submodules that require frequent updates but infrequent (if any) commits, a rebase can be executed directly by the git-submodule command, ensuring that the submodules stay on their respective branches. git-config key: submodule.$name.rebase (bool) Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net> Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-02-07submodule: add --no-fetch parameter to update commandLibravatar Fabian Franz1-3/+16
git submodule update --no-fetch makes it possible to use git submodule update in complete offline mode by not fetching new revisions. This does make sense in the following setup: * There is an unstable and a stable branch in the super/master repository. * The submodules might be at different revisions in the branches. * You are at some place without internet connection ;) With this patch it is now possible to change branches and update the submodules to be at the recorded revision without online access. Another advantage is that with -N the update operation is faster, because fetch is checking for new updates even if there was no fetch/pull on the super/master repository since the last update.

2008-08-21git-submodule.sh - Remove trailing / from URL if foundLibravatar Mark Levedahl1-2/+3
git clone does not complain if a trailing '/' is included in the origin URL, but doing so causes resolution of a submodule's URL relative to the superproject to fail. Trailing /'s are likely when cloning locally using tab-completion, so the slash may appear in either superproject or submodule URL. So, ignore the trailing slash if it already exists in the superproject's URL, and don't record one for the submodule (which could itself have submodules...). The problem I'm trying to fix is that a number of folks have superprojects checked out where the recorded origin URL has a trailing /, and a submodule has its origin in a directory sitting right next to the superproject on the server. Thus, we have: superproject url = server:/public/super submodoule url = server:/public/sub1 However, in the checked out superproject's .git/config [remote "origin"] url = server:/public/super/ and for similar reasons, the submodule has its URL recorded in .gitmodules as [submodule "sub"] path = submodule1 url = ../sub1/ resolve_relative_url gets the submodule's recorded url as $1, which the caller retrieved from .gitmodules, and retrieves the superprojects origin from .git/config. So in this case resolve_relative_url has that: url = ../sub1/ remoteurl = server:/public/super/ So, without any patch, resolve_relative_url computes the submodule's URL as: server:/public/super/sub1/ rather than server:/public/sub1 In summary, it is essential that resolve_relative_url strip the trailing / from the superproject's url before starting, and beneficial if it assures that the result does not contain a trailing / as the submodule may itself also be a superproject.

2008-08-17git-submodule - Add 'foreach' subcommandLibravatar Mark Levedahl1-2/+22
submodule foreach <command-list> will execute the list of commands in each currently checked out submodule directory. The list of commands is arbitrary as long as it is acceptable to sh. The variables '$path' and '$sha1' are availble to the command-list, defining the submodule path relative to the superproject and the submodules's commitID as recorded in the superproject (this may be different than HEAD in the submodule). This utility is inspired by a number of threads on the mailing list looking for ways to better integrate submodules in a tree and work with them as a unit. This could include fetching a new branch in each from a given source, or possibly checking out a given named branch in each. Currently, there is no consensus as to what additional commands should be implemented in the porcelain, requiring all users whose needs exceed that of git-submodule to do their own scripting. The foreach command is intended to support such scripting, and in particular does no error checking and produces no output, thus allowing end users complete control over any information printed out and over what constitutes an error. The processing does terminate if the command-list returns an error, but processing can easily be forced for all submodules be terminating the list with ';true'.

When adding a new submodule in place, meaning the user created the submodule as a git repo in the superproject's tree first, we don't go through "git submodule init" to register the module. Thus, the submodule's origin repository URL is not stored in .git/config, and no subsequent submodule operation will ever do so. In this case, assume the URL the user supplies to "submodule add" is the one that should be registered, and do so.

2008-07-14git-submodule - make "submodule add" more strict, and document itLibravatar Mark Levedahl1-35/+20
This change makes "submodule add" much more strict in the arguments it takes, and is intended to address confusion as recently noted on the git-list. With this change, the required syntax is: $ git submodule add URL path Specifically, this eliminates the form $ git submodule add URL which was confused by more than one person as $ git submodule add path With this patch, the URL locating the submodule's origin repository can be either an absolute URL, or (if it begins with ./ or ../) can express the submodule's repository location relative to the superproject's origin. This patch also eliminates a third form of URL, which was relative to the superproject's top-level directory (not its repository). Any URL that was neither absolute nor matched ./*|../* was assumed to point to a subdirectory of the superproject as the location of the submodule's origin repository. This URL form was confusing and does not seem to correspond to an important use-case. Specifically, no-one has identified the need to clone from a repository already in the superproject's tree, but if this is needed it is easily done using an absolute URL: $(pwd)/relative-path. So, no functionality is lost with this patch. (t6008-rev-list-submodule.sh did rely upon this relative URL, fixed by using $(pwd).) Following this change, there are exactly four variants of submodule-add, as both arguments have two flavors: URL can be absolute, or can begin with ./|../ and thus names the submodule's origin relative to the superproject's origin. Note: With this patch, "submodule add" discerns an absolute URL as matching /*|*:*: e.g., URL begins with /, or it contains a :. This works for all valid URLs, an absolute path in POSIX, as well as an absolute path on Windows). path can either already exist as a valid git repo, or will be cloned from the given URL. The first form here eases creation of a new submodule in an existing superproject as the submodule can be added and tested in-tree before pushing to the public repository. However, the more usual form is the second, where the repo is cloned from the given URL. This specifically addresses the issue of $ git submodule add a/b/c attempting to clone from a repository at "a/b/c" to create a new module in "c". This also simplifies description of "relative URL" as there is now exactly *one* form: a URL relative to the parent's origin repo.

2008-06-14git-submodule - Fix errors regarding resolve_relative_urlLibravatar Mark Levedahl1-4/+5
git-submodule was invoking "die" from within resolve-relative-url, but this does not actually cause the script to exit. Fix this by returning the error to the caller and have the caller exit. While we're at it, clean up the quoting on invocation of resolve_relative_url as it was wrong. Signed-off-by: Mark Levedahl <mlevedahl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-06-12Improve sed portabilityLibravatar Chris Ridd1-1/+1
The behaviour of "sed" on an incomplete line is unspecified by POSIX, and On Solaris it apparently fails to process input that doesn't end in a LF. Consequently constructs like re=$(printf '%s' foo | sed -e 's/bar/BAR/g' $) cause re to be set to the empty string. Such a construct is used in git-submodule.sh. Because the LF at the end of command output are stripped away by the command substitution, it is a safe and sane change to add a LF at the end of the printf format specifier.
