2017-03-14Merge branch 'kn/ref-filter-branch-list'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+25
"git branch --list" takes the "--abbrev" and "--no-abbrev" options to control the output of the object name in its "-v"(erbose) output, but a recent update started ignoring them; this fixes it before the breakage reaches to any released version. * kn/ref-filter-branch-list: branch: honor --abbrev/--no-abbrev in --list mode

When the "branch --list" command was converted to use the --format facility from the ref-filter API, we forgot to honor the --abbrev setting in the default output format and instead used a hardcoded "7". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-02-20branch: record creation of renamed branch in HEAD's logLibravatar Kyle Meyer1-2/+3
Renaming the current branch adds an event to the current branch's log and to HEAD's log. However, the logged entries differ. The entry in the branch's log represents the entire renaming operation (the old and new hash are identical), whereas the entry in HEAD's log represents the deletion only (the new sha1 is null). Extend replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), whose only caller is branch_rename(), to take a reflog message argument. This allows the creation of the new ref to be recorded in HEAD's log. As a result, the renaming event is represented by two entries (a deletion and a creation entry) in HEAD's log. It's a bit unfortunate that the branch's log and HEAD's log now represent the renaming event in different ways. Given that the renaming operation is not atomic, the two-entry form is a more accurate representation of the operation and is more useful for debugging purposes if a failure occurs between the deletion and creation events. It would make sense to move the branch's log to the two-entry form, but this would involve changes to how the rename is carried out and to how the update flags and reflogs are processed for deletions, so it may not be worth the effort.

2017-02-20rename_ref: replace empty message in HEAD's logLibravatar Kyle Meyer1-0/+5
When the current branch is renamed, the deletion of the old ref is recorded in HEAD's log with an empty message. Now that delete_ref() accepts a reflog message, provide a more descriptive message by passing along the log message that is given to rename_ref(). The next step will be to extend HEAD's log to also include the second part of the rename, the creation of the new branch.

2016-06-17tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false positivesLibravatar Vasco Almeida1-3/+3
The test functions test_i18ncmp and test_i18ngrep pretend success if run under GETTEXT_POISON. By using those functions to test output which is correctly marked as translatable, enables one to detect if the strings newly marked for translation are from plumbing output. If they are indeed from plumbing, the test would fail, and the string should be unmarked, since it is not seen by users. Thus, it is productive to not have false positives when running the test under GETTEXT_POISON. This commit replaces normal test functions by their i18n aware variants in use-cases know to be correctly marked for translation, suppressing false positives.

2016-06-13refs: don't dereference on renameLibravatar David Turner1-0/+9
When renaming refs, don't dereference either the origin or the destination before renaming. The origin does not need to be dereferenced because it is presently forbidden to rename symbolic refs.

When setting up a new tracking branch fails due to issues with the configuration file we do not report any errors to the user and pretend setting the tracking branch succeeded. Setting up the tracking branch is handled by the `install_branch_config` function. We do not want to simply die there as the function is not only invoked when explicitly setting upstream information with `git branch --set-upstream-to=`, but also by `git push --set-upstream` and `git clone`. While it is reasonable to die in the explict first case, we would lose information in the latter two cases, so we only print the error message but continue the program as usual.

Ordinarily, we would say "VAR=VAL command" to execute a tested command with environment variable(s) set only for that command. This however does not work if 'command' is a shell function (most notably 'test_must_fail'); the result of the assignment is retained and affects later commands. To avoid this, we used to assign and export environment variables and run such a test in a subshell, like so: ( VAR=VAL && export VAR && test_must_fail git command to be tested ) But with "env" utility, we should be able to say: test_must_fail env VAR=VAL git command to be tested which is much shorter and easier to read.

We have the build configuration option DEFAULT_MAN_FORMAT to choose a format different from man pages to be used by 'git help' when no format is requested explicitly.

The intent of the redirections applied to the command invocation is to avoid that the man page viewer interferes with the automated test.

2013-09-09branch.c: Relax unnecessary requirement on upstream's remote ref nameLibravatar Per Cederqvist1-1/+1
When creating an upstream relationship, we use the configured remotes and their refspecs to determine the upstream configuration settings branch.<name>.remote and branch.<name>.merge. However, if the matching refspec does not have refs/heads/<something> on the remote side, we end up rejecting the match, and failing the upstream configuration. It could be argued that when we set up an branch's upstream, we want that upstream to also be a proper branch in the remote repo. Although this is typically the common case, there are cases (as demonstrated by the previous patch in this series) where this requirement prevents a useful upstream relationship from being formed. Furthermore: - We have fundamentally no say in how the remote repo have organized its branches. The remote repo may put branches (or branch-like constructs that are insteresting for downstreams to track) outside refs/heads/*. - The user may intentionally want to track a non-branch from a remote repo, by using a branch and configured upstream in the local repo. Relaxing the checking to only require a matching remote/refspec allows the testcase introduced in the previous patch to succeed, and has no negative effect on the rest of the test suite. This patch fixes a behavior (arguably a regression) first introduced in 41c21f2 (branch.c: Validate tracking branches with refspecs instead of refs/remotes/*) on 2013-04-21 (released in >= v1.8.3.2).

2013-09-09t3200: Add test demonstrating minor regression in 41c21f2Libravatar Johan Herland1-0/+34
In 41c21f2 (branch.c: Validate tracking branches with refspecs instead of refs/remotes/*), we changed the rules for what is considered a valid tracking branch (a.k.a. upstream branch). We now use the configured remotes and their refspecs to determine whether a proposed tracking branch is in fact within the domain of a remote, and we then use that information to deduce the upstream configuration (branch.<name>.remote and branch.<name>.merge). However, with that change, we also check that - in addition to a matching refspec - the result of mapping the tracking branch through that refspec (i.e. the corresponding ref name in the remote repo) happens to start with "refs/heads/". In other words, we require that a tracking branch refers to a _branch_ in the remote repo. Now, consider that you are e.g. setting up an automated building/testing infrastructure for a group of similar "source" repositories. The build/test infrastructure consists of a central scheduler, and a number of build/test "slave" machines that perform the actual build/test work. The scheduler monitors the group of similar repos for changes (e.g. with a periodic "git fetch"), and triggers builds/tests to be run on one or more slaves. Graphically the changes flow between the repos like this: Source #1 -------v ----> Slave #1 / Source #2 -----> Scheduler -----> Slave #2 \ Source #3 -------^ ----> Slave #3 ... ... The scheduler maintains a single Git repo with each of the source repos set up as distinct remotes. The slaves also need access to all the changes from all of the source repos, so they pull from the scheduler repo, but using the following custom refspec: remote.origin.fetch = "+refs/remotes/*:refs/remotes/*" This makes all of the scheduler's remote-tracking branches automatically available as identical remote-tracking branches in each of the slaves. Now, consider what happens if a slave tries to create a local branch with one of the remote-tracking branches as upstream: git branch local_branch --track refs/remotes/source-1/some_branch Git now looks at the configured remotes (in this case there is only "origin", pointing to the scheduler's repo) and sees refs/remotes/source-1/some_branch matching origin's refspec. Mapping through that refspec we find that the corresponding remote ref name is "refs/remotes/source-1/some_branch". However, since this remote ref name does not start with "refs/heads/", we discard it as a suitable upstream, and the whole command fails. This patch adds a testcase demonstrating this failure by creating two source repos ("a" and "b") that are forwarded through a scheduler ("c") to a slave repo ("d"), that then tries create a local branch with an upstream. See the next patch in this series for the exciting conclusion to this story...

2013-09-09t3200: Minor fix when preparing for tracking failureLibravatar Johan Herland1-1/+2
We're testing that trying to --track a ref that is not covered by any remote refspec should fail. For that, we want to have refs/remotes/local/master present, but we also want the remote.local.fetch refspec to NOT match refs/remotes/local/master (so that the tracking setup will fail, as intended). However, when doing "git fetch local" to ensure the existence of refs/remotes/local/master, we must not already have changed remote.local.fetch so as to cause refs/remotes/local/master not to be fetched. Therefore, set remote.local.fetch to refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/local/* BEFORE we fetch, and then reset it to refs/heads/s:refs/remotes/local/s AFTER we have fetched (but before we test --track).

2013-04-21branch.c: Validate tracking branches with refspecs instead of refs/remotes/*Libravatar Johan Herland1-1/+1
The current code for validating tracking branches (e.g. the argument to the -t/--track option) hardcodes refs/heads/* and refs/remotes/* as the potential locations for tracking branches. This works with the refspecs created by "git clone" or "git remote add", but is suboptimal in other cases: - If "refs/remotes/foo/bar" exists without any association to a remote (i.e. there is no remote named "foo", or no remote with a refspec that matches "refs/remotes/foo/bar"), then it is impossible to set up a valid upstream config that tracks it. Currently, the code defaults to using "refs/remotes/foo/bar" from repo "." as the upstream, which works, but is probably not what the user had in mind when running "git branch baz --track foo/bar". - If the user has tweaked the fetch refspec for a remote to put its remote-tracking branches outside of refs/remotes/*, e.g. by running git config remote.foo.fetch "+refs/heads/*:refs/foo_stuff/*" then the current code will refuse to use its remote-tracking branches as --track arguments, since they do not match refs/remotes/*. This patch removes the "refs/remotes/*" requirement for upstream branches, and replaces it with explicit checking of the refspecs for each remote to determine whether a given --track argument is a valid remote-tracking branch. This solves both of the above problems, since the matching refspec guarantees that there is a both a remote name and a remote branch name that can be used for the upstream config. However, this means that refs located within refs/remotes/* without a corresponding remote/refspec will no longer be usable as upstreams. The few existing tests which depended on this behavioral quirk has already been fixed in the preceding patches. This patch fixes the last remaining test failure in t2024-checkout-dwim.

2012-10-18branch: skip commit checks when deleting symref branchesLibravatar René Scharfe1-0/+9
Before a branch is deleted, we check that it points to a valid commit. With -d we also check that the commit is a merged; this check is not done with -D. The reason for that is that commits pointed to by branches should never go missing; if they do then something broke and it's better to stop instead of adding to the mess. And a non-merged commit may contain changes that are worth preserving, so we require the stronger option -D instead of -d to get rid of them. If a branch consists of a symref, these concerns don't apply. Deleting such a branch can't make a commit become unreferenced, so we don't need to check if it is merged, or even if it is actually a valid commit. Skip them in that case.

"git branch --set-upstream origin/master" is a common mistake to create a local branch 'origin/master' and set it to integrate with the current branch. With a plan to deprecate this option, introduce "git branch (-u|--set-upstream-to) origin/master" that sets the current branch to integrate with 'origin/master' remote tracking branch. * cn/branch-set-upstream-to: branch: deprecate --set-upstream and show help if we detect possible mistaken use branch: add --unset-upstream option branch: introduce --set-upstream-to

mistaken use This interface is error prone, and a better one (--set-upstream-to) exists. Add a message listing the alternatives and suggest how to fix a --set-upstream invocation in case the user only gives one argument which causes a local branch with the same name as a remote-tracking one to be created. The typical case is git branch --set-upstream origin/master when the user meant git branch --set-upstream master origin/master assuming that the current branch is master. Show a message telling the user how to undo their action and get what they wanted. For the command above, the message would be The --set-upstream flag is deprecated and will be removed. Consider using --track or --set-upstream-to Branch origin/master set up to track local branch master. If you wanted to make 'master' track 'origin/master', do this: git branch -d origin/master git branch --set-upstream-to origin/master Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We have ways of setting the upstream information, but if we want to unset it, we need to resort to modifying the configuration manually. Teach branch an --unset-upstream option that unsets this information. Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-08-23branch: introduce --set-upstream-toLibravatar Carlos Martín Nieto1-0/+14
The existing --set-uptream option can cause confusion, as it uses the usual branch convention of assuming a starting point of HEAD if none is specified, causing git branch --set-upstream origin/master to create a new local branch 'origin/master' that tracks the current branch. As --set-upstream already exists, we can't simply change its behaviour. To work around this, introduce --set-upstream-to which accepts a compulsory argument indicating what the new upstream branch should be and one optinal argument indicating which branch to change, defaulting to HEAD. The new options allows us to type git branch --set-upstream-to origin/master to set the current branch's upstream to be origin's master.
