2016-03-23merge: refuse to create too cool a merge by defaultLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
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>
2013-03-22Fix revision walk for commits with the same datesLibravatar Kacper Kornet1-0/+13
Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same commit time and there are more then 7 of them. To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

2011-03-24tests: avoid nonportable {foo,bar} globLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-8/+8
Unlike bash and ksh, dash and busybox ash do not support brace expansion (as in 'echo {hello,world}'). So when dash is sh, t6009.13 (set up dodecapus) ends up pass a string beginning with "root{1,2," to "git merge" verbatim and the test fails. Fix it by introducing a variable to hold the list of parents for the dodecapus and populating it in a more low-tech way. While at it, simplify a little by combining this setup code with the test it sets up for. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-03-23rev-list --min-parents,--max-parents: doc, test and completionLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-1/+106
This also adds test for "--merges" and "--no-merges" which we did not have so far. Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@drmicha.warpmail.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2010-11-09tests: add missing &&Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+1
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>
2008-03-19Make revision limiting more robust against occasional bad commit datesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
The revision limiter uses the commit date to decide when it has seen enough commits to finalize the revision list, but that can get confused if there are incorrect dates far in the past on some commits. This makes the logic a bit more robust by - we always walk an extra SLOP commits from the source list even if we decide that the source list is probably all done (unless the source is entirely empty, of course, because then we really can't do anything at all) - we keep track of the date of the last commit we added to the destination list (this will *generally* be the oldest entry we've seen so far) - we compare that with the youngest entry (the first one) of the source list, and if the destination is older than the source, we know we want to look at the source. which causes occasional date mishaps to be handled cleanly.

2008-03-13add test_cmp function for test scriptsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Many scripts compare actual and expected output using "diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure. This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its arguments; the default is "diff -u". On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do: GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-03known breakage: revision range computation with clock skewLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+38
This is the absolute minimum (and reliable) reproduction recipe to demonstrate that revision range in a history with clock skew sometimes fails to mark UNINTERESTING commit in topologically early parts of the history. The history looks like this: o---o---o---o one four but one has the largest timestamp. "git rev-list four..one" fails to notice that "one" should not be emitted.
