2019-08-27status: mention --skip for revert and cherry-pickLibravatar Denton Liu1-0/+6
When reverting or cherry-picking, one of the options we can pass the sequencer is `--skip`. However, unlike rebasing, `--skip` is not mentioned as a possible option in the status message. Mention it so that users are more aware of their options. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-06-27status: do not report errors in sequencer/todoLibravatar Phillip Wood1-0/+16
commit 4a72486de9 ("fix cherry-pick/revert status after commit", 2019-04-16) used parse_insn_line() to parse the first line of the todo list to check if it was a pick or revert. However if the todo list is left over from an old cherry-pick or revert and references a commit that no longer exists then parse_insn_line() prints an error message which is confusing for users [1]. Instead parse just the command name so that the user is alerted to the presence of stale sequencer state by status reporting that a cherry-pick or revert is in progress. Note that we should not be leaving stale sequencer state lying around (or at least not as often) after commit b07d9bfd17 ("commit/reset: try to clean up sequencer state", 2019-04-16). However the user may still have stale state that predates that commit. Also avoid printing an error message if for some reason the user has a file called `sequencer` in $GIT_DIR.

2019-06-21status: remove the empty line after hintsLibravatar John Lin1-14/+0
Before this patch, there is inconsistency between the status messages with hints and the ones without hints: there is an empty line between the title and the file list if hints are presented, but there isn't one if there are no hints.

2019-05-07doc: promote "git restore"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-10/+10
The new command "git restore" (together with "git switch") are added to avoid the confusion of one-command-do-all "git checkout" for new users. They are also helpful to avoid ambiguous context. For these reasons, promote it everywhere possible. This includes documentation, suggestions/advice from other commands. One nice thing about git-restore is the ability to restore "everything", so it can be used in "git status" advice instead of both "git checkout" and "git reset". The three commands suggested by "git status" are add, rm and restore. "git checkout" is also removed from "git help" (i.e. it's no longer considered a commonly used command) Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-03-12wt-status: lift the artificual "at least 20 columns" floorLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+6
When we show unmerged paths, we had an artificial 20 columns floor for the width of labels (e.g. "both deleted:") shown next to the pathnames. Depending on the locale, this may result in a label that is too wide when all the label strings are way shorter than 20 columns, or no-op when a label string is longer than 20 columns. Just drop the artificial floor. The screen real estate is better utilized this way when all the strings are shorter. Adjust the tests to this change. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-09-06status: disable display of '#' comment prefix by defaultLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+4
Historically, "git status" needed to prefix each output line with '#' so that the output could be added as comment to the commit message. This prefix comment has no real purpose when "git status" is ran from the command-line, and this may distract users from the real content. Disable this prefix comment by default, and make it re-activable for users needing backward compatibility with status.displayCommentPrefix. Obviously, "git commit" ignores status.displayCommentPrefix and keeps the comment unconditionnaly when writing to COMMIT_EDITMSG (but not when writing to stdout for an error message or with --dry-run).

2013-06-17status: do not depend on rebase reflog messagesLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-20/+17
b397ea4 (status: show more info than "currently not on any branch", 2013-03-13) attempted to make the output of 'git status' richer in the case of a detached HEAD. Before this patch, with a detached HEAD, we saw: $ git status # Not currently on any branch. But after the patch, we see: $ git checkout v1.8.2 $ git status # HEAD detached at v1.8.2. It works by digging the reflog for the most recent message of the form "checkout: moving from xxxx to yyyy". It then asserts that HEAD and "yyyy" are the same, and displays this message. When they aren't equal, it displays: $ git status # HEAD detached from fe11db. so that the user can see where the HEAD was first detached. In case of a rebase [-i] operation in progress, this message depends on the implementation of rebase writing "checkout: " messages to the reflog, but that is an implementation detail of "rebase". To remove this dependency so that rebase can be updated to write better reflog messages, replace this "HEAD detached from" message with: # rebase in progress; onto $ONTO Changes to the commit object name in the expected output for some of the tests shows that what the test expected "status" to show during "rebase -i" was not consistent with the output during a vanilla "rebase", which showed on top of what commit the series is being replayed. Now we consistently expect something meaningful to the end user. Signed-off-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-03-16status: show more info than "currently not on any branch"Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-19/+33
When a remote ref or a tag is checked out, HEAD is automatically detached. There is no user-friendly way to find out what ref is checked out in this case. This patch digs in reflog for this information and shows "HEAD detached from origin/master" or "HEAD detached at v1.8.0" instead of "currently not on any branch". When it cannot figure out the original ref, it shows an abbreviated SHA-1. "Currently not on any branch" would never display (unless reflog is pruned to near empty that the last checkout entry is lost).

The typical use-case is starting a rebase, do something else, come back the day after, run "git status" or make a new commit and wonder what in the world's going on. Which branch is being rebased is probably the most useful tidbit to help, but the target may help too. Ideally, I would have loved to see "rebasing master on origin/master", but the target ref name is not stored during rebase, so this patch writes "rebasing master on a78c8c98b" as a half-measure to remind future users of that potential improvement.
