2016-11-16rev-parse: fix parent shorthands with --symbolicLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+18
The try_parent_shorthands() function shows each parent via show_rev(). We pass the correct parent sha1, but our "name" parameter still points at the original refname. So asking for a regular rev-parse works fine (it prints the sha1s), but asking for the symbolic name gives nonsense like: $ git rev-parse --symbolic HEAD^-1 HEAD ^HEAD which is always an empty set of commits. Asking for "^!" is likewise broken, with the added bonus that its prints ^HEAD for _each_ parent. And "^@" just prints HEAD repeatedly. Arguably it would be correct to just pass NULL as the name here, and always get the parent expressed as a sha1. The "--symbolic" documentaton claims only "as close to the original input as possible", and we certainly fallback to sha1s where necessary. But it's pretty easy to generate a symbolic name on the fly from the original. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-09-27revision: new rev^-n shorthand for rev^n..revLibravatar Vegard Nossum1-0/+94
"git log rev^..rev" is commonly used to show all work done on and merged from a side branch. This patch introduces a shorthand "rev^-" for this and additionally allows "rev^-$n" to mean "reachable from rev, excluding what is reachable from the nth parent of rev". For example, for a two-parent merge, you can use rev^-2 to get the set of commits which were made to the main branch while the topic branch was prepared.

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>
2013-12-27Remove the line length limit for graft filesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+15
Support for grafts predates Git's strbuf, and hence it is understandable that there was a hard-coded line length limit of 1023 characters (which was chosen a bit awkwardly, given that it is *exactly* one byte short of aligning with the 41 bytes occupied by a commit name and the following space or new-line character). While regular commit histories hardly win comprehensibility in general if they merge more than twenty-two branches in one go, it is not Git's business to limit grafts in such a way. In this particular developer's case, the use case that requires substantially longer graft lines to be supported is the visualization of the commits' order implied by their changes: commits are considered to have an implicit relationship iff exchanging them in an interactive rebase would result in merge conflicts. Thusly implied branches tend to be very shallow in general, and the resulting thicket of implied branches is usually very wide; It is actually quite common that *most* of the commits in a topic branch have not even one implied parent, so that a final merge commit has about as many implied parents as there are commits in said branch.

2013-09-03rev-parse test: use standard test functions for setupLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-9/+9
Save the reader from learning specialized t6* setup functions where familiar commands like test_commit, "git checkout --orphan", and "git merge" will do. While at it, wrap the setup commands in a test assertion so errors can be caught and stray output suppressed when running without --verbose as in other tests.

2013-09-03rev-parse test: use test_cmp instead of "test" builtinLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-14/+19
Use test_cmp instead of passing two command substitutions to the "test" builtin. This way: - when tests fail, they can print a helpful diff if run with "--verbose" - the argument order "test_cmp expect actual" feels natural, unlike test <known> = <unknown> that seems backwards - the exit status from invoking git is checked, so if rev-parse starts segfaulting then the test will notice and fail Use a custom function for this instead of test_cmp_rev to emphasize that we are testing the output from "git rev-parse" with certain arguments, not checking that the revisions are equal in abstract.

2008-08-17tests: use $TEST_DIRECTORY to refer to the t/ directoryLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Many test scripts assumed that they will start in a 'trash' subdirectory that is a single level down from the t/ directory, and referred to their test vector files by asking for files like "../t9999/expect". This will break if we move the 'trash' subdirectory elsewhere. To solve this, we earlier introduced "$TEST_DIRECTORY" so that they can refer to t/ directory reliably. This finally makes all the tests use it to refer to the outside environment. With this patch, and a one-liner not included here (because it would contradict with what Dscho really wants to do): | diff --git a/t/test-lib.sh b/t/test-lib.sh | index 70ea7e0..60e69e4 100644 | --- a/t/test-lib.sh | +++ b/t/test-lib.sh | @@ -485,7 +485,7 @@ fi | . ../GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS | | # Test repository | -test="trash directory" | +test="trash directory/another level/yet another" | rm -fr "$test" || { | trap - exit | echo >&5 "FATAL: Cannot prepare test area" all the tests still pass, but we would want extra sets of eyeballs on this type of change to really make sure.

2008-07-27rev-parse: Add support for the ^! and ^@ syntaxLibravatar Björn Steinbrink1-0/+2

2008-02-01Sane use of test_expect_failureLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests run a series of commands that leads to the single command that needs to be tested, like this: test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && what is to be tested ' And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands. This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is tested, like this: test_expect_success 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && ! this command should fail ' test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can write a test like this: test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' ' rm -f bar && git foo && test -f bar ' This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

2007-05-29Test for recent rev-parse $abbrev_sha1 regressionLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+10
My recent patch "Lazily open pack index files on demand" caused a regression in the case of parsing abbreviated SHA-1 object names. Git was unable to translate the abbreviated name into the full name if the object was packed, as the pack .idx files were not opened before being accessed. This is a simple test to repack a repository then test for an abbreviated SHA-1 within the packfile. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2005-09-07Big tool rename.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences since 0.99.6 are: (1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if something is implemented as a shell script or not. (2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with 'index' if that is what they mean. There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near future.

git-rev-parse HEAD^1 would fail, because of an off-by-one bug (but HEAD^ would yield the expected result). Also, when the parent does not exist, do not silently return an incorrect SHA1.
