2016-03-23merge: refuse to create too cool a merge by defaultLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
While it makes sense to allow merging unrelated histories of two projects that started independently into one, in the way "gitk" was merged to "git" itself aka "the coolest merge ever", such a merge is still an unusual event. Worse, if somebody creates an independent history by starting from a tarball of an established project and sends a pull request to the original project, "git merge" however happily creates such a merge without any sign of something unusual is happening. Teach "git merge" to refuse to create such a merge by default, unless the user passes a new "--allow-unrelated-histories" option to tell it that the user is aware that two unrelated projects are merged. Because such a "two project merge" is a rare event, a configuration option to always allow such a merge is not added. We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed through to underlying "git merge". I do not have a fundamental opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do so and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others, because such a "two project merge" would be done after fetching the other project into some location in the working tree of an existing project and making sure how well they fit together, it is sufficient to allow a local merge without such an option pass-through from "git pull" to "git merge". Many tests that are updated by this patch does the pass-through manually by turning: git pull something into its equivalent: git fetch something && git merge --allow-unrelated-histories FETCH_HEAD If somebody is inclined to add such an option, updated tests in this change need to be adjusted back to: git pull --allow-unrelated-histories something Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-15Merge branch 'cw/rebase-i-root'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+0
"git rebase [-i] --root $tip" can now be used to rewrite all the history down to the root. * cw/rebase-i-root: t3404: make test 57 work with dash and others Add tests for rebase -i --root without --onto rebase -i: support --root without --onto
2012-06-26Add tests for rebase -i --root without --ontoLibravatar Chris Webb1-4/+0
Test for likely breakages in t3404, including successful reordering of non-conflicting changes with a new root, correct preservation of commit message and author in a root commit when it is squashed with the sentinel, and presence of the sentinel following a conflicting cherry-pick of a new root. Remove test_must_fail for git rebase --root without --onto from t3412 as this case will now be successfully handled by an implicit git rebase -i.

2012-06-26rebase --root: print usage on too many argsLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-1/+7
Just like git rebase --onto newbase upstream branch error displays the usage message, so should clearly git rebase --onto newbase --root branch error , but it doesn't. Instead, it ignores both "branch" and "error" and rebases the current HEAD. This is because we try to match the number of remainging arguments "$#", which fails to match "1" argument and matches the "*" that really should have been a "0". Make sure we display usage information when too many arguments are given. Also fail-fast in case of similar bugs in the future by matching on exactly 0 arguments and failing on unknown numbers.

2010-11-09tests: add missing &&Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide failures from earlier commands in the chain. Commands intended to fail should be marked with !, test_must_fail, or test_might_fail. The examples in this patch do not require that. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-02-03t3412: further simplify setting of GIT_EDITORLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+0
2182896 (t3412: clean up GIT_EDITOR usage, 2009-01-30) tried to clean up the script's use of GIT_EDITOR, but it can further be simplified, because that is how test-lib.sh sets things up already. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-02-01t3412: use log|name-rev instead of log --graphLibravatar Thomas Rast1-26/+39
Replace all 'git log --graph' calls for history verification with the combination of 'git log ...| git name-rev' first introduced by a6c7a27 (rebase -i: correctly remember --root flag across --continue, 2009-01-26). This should be less susceptible to format changes than the --graph code. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-01-30t3412: clean up GIT_EDITOR usageLibravatar Thomas Rast1-25/+13
a6c7a27 (rebase -i: correctly remember --root flag across --continue, 2009-01-26) introduced a more portable GIT_EDITOR usage, but left the old tests unchanged. Since we never use the editor (all tests run the rebase script as proposed by rebase -i), just disable it outright, which simplifies the tests.

2009-01-26tests: Avoid single-shot environment export for shell function invocationLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+20
Some shells have issues with a single-shot environment variable export when invoking a shell function. This fixes the ones I found that invoke test_must_fail that way. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-01-26rebase -i: correctly remember --root flag across --continueLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+94
d911d14 (rebase -i: learn to rebase root commit, 2009-01-02) tried to remember the --root flag across a merge conflict in a broken way. Introduce a flag file $DOTEST/rebase-root to fix and clarify. While at it, also make sure $UPSTREAM is always initialized to guard against existing values in the environment.

2009-01-11rebase -i: learn to rebase root commitLibravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+101
Teach git-rebase -i a new option --root, which instructs it to rebase the entire history leading up to <branch>. This is mainly for symmetry with ordinary git-rebase; it cannot be used to edit the root commit in-place (it requires --onto <newbase>). Commits that already exist in <newbase> are skipped. In the normal mode of operation, this is fairly straightforward. We run cherry-pick in a loop, and cherry-pick has supported picking the root commit since f95ebf7 (Allow cherry-picking root commits, 2008-07-04). In --preserve-merges mode, we track the mapping from old to rewritten commits and use it to update the parent list of each commit. In this case, we define 'rebase -i -p --root --onto $onto $branch' to rewrite the parent list of all root commit(s) on $branch to contain $onto instead.

2009-01-11rebase: learn to rebase root commitLibravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+86
Teach git-rebase a new option --root, which instructs it to rebase the entire history leading up to <branch>. This option must be used with --onto <newbase>, and causes commits that already exist in <newbase> to be skipped. (Normal operation skips commits that already exist in <upstream> instead.) One possible use-case is with git-svn: suppose you start hacking (perhaps offline) on a new project, but later notice you want to commit this work to SVN. You will have to rebase the entire history, including the root commit, on a (possibly empty) commit coming from git-svn, to establish a history connection. This previously had to be done by cherry-picking the root commit manually. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
