2012-01-11sequencer: factor code out of revert builtinLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-0/+37
Expose the cherry-picking machinery through a public sequencer_pick_revisions() (renamed from pick_revisions() in builtin/revert.c), so that cherry-picking and reverting are special cases of a general sequencer operation. The cherry-pick builtin is now a thin wrapper that does command-line argument parsing before calling into sequencer_pick_revisions(). In the future, we can write a new "foo" builtin that calls into the sequencer like: memset(&opts, 0, sizeof(opts)); opts.action = REPLAY_FOO; opts.revisions = xmalloc(sizeof(*opts.revs)); parse_args_populate_opts(argc, argv, &opts); init_revisions(opts.revs); sequencer_pick_revisions(&opts); This patch does not intend to make any functional changes.

2011-12-12revert: stop creating and removing sequencer-old directoryLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-10/+2
Now that "git reset" no longer implicitly removes .git/sequencer that the operator may or may not have wanted to keep, the logic to write a backup copy of .git/sequencer and remove it when stale is not needed any more. Simplify the sequencer API and repository layout by dropping it. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-11-22revert: rename --reset option to --quitLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+1
The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name. Change it now, while we still have the time. The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit. Mnemonic: this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using --- we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state. The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact. We might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though. Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit) instead of --reset. While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions of these operations in "-h" output. Before: --reset forget the current operation --continue continue the current operation After: --quit end revert or cherry-pick sequence --continue resume revert or cherry-pick sequence Noticed-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-08-04revert: Introduce --reset to remove sequencer stateLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-0/+20
To explicitly remove the sequencer state for a fresh cherry-pick or revert invocation, introduce a new subcommand called "--reset" to remove the sequencer state. Take the opportunity to publicly expose the sequencer paths, and a generic function called "remove_sequencer_state" that various git programs can use to remove the sequencer state in a uniform manner; "git reset" uses it later in this series. Introducing this public API is also in line with our long-term goal of eventually factoring out functions from revert.c into a generic commit sequencer.
