2019-04-18merge: add scissors line on merge conflictLibravatar Denton Liu1-0/+46
This fixes a bug where the scissors line is placed after the Conflicts: section, in the case where a merge conflict occurs and commit.cleanup = scissors. Next, if commit.cleanup = scissors is specified, don't produce a scissors line in commit if one already exists in the MERGE_MSG file.

2018-08-21tests: use 'test_must_be_empty' instead of 'test_cmp <empty> <out>'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-6/+3
Using 'test_must_be_empty' is shorter and more idiomatic than >empty && test_cmp empty out as it saves the creation of an empty file. Furthermore, sometimes the expected empty file doesn't have such a descriptive name like 'empty', and its creation is far away from the place where it's finally used for comparison (e.g. in 't7600-merge.sh', where two expected empty files are created in the 'setup' test, but are used only about 500 lines later). These cases were found by instrumenting 'test_cmp' to error out the test script when it's used to compare empty files, and then converted manually. Note that even after this patch there still remain a lot of cases where we use 'test_cmp' to check empty files: - Sometimes the expected output is not hard-coded in the test, but 'test_cmp' is used to ensure that two similar git commands produce the same output, and that output happens to be empty, e.g. the test 'submodule update --merge - ignores --merge for new submodules' in 't7406-submodule-update.sh'. - Repetitive common tasks, including preparing the expected results and running 'test_cmp', are often extracted into a helper function, and some of this helper's callsites expect no output. - For the same reason as above, the whole 'test_expect_success' block is within a helper function, e.g. in 't3070-wildmatch.sh'. - Or 'test_cmp' is invoked in a loop, e.g. the test 'cvs update (-p)' in 't9400-git-cvsserver-server.sh'.

2018-02-16merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tagLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+37
Long time ago at fab47d05 ("merge: force edit and no-ff mode when merging a tag object", 2011-11-07), "git merge" was made to always create a merge commit when merging a tag, even when the side branch being merged is a descendant of the current branch. This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with the upstream. When there is no local work left on the topic, such a merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the release tag. Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update when able) otherwise.

2017-08-23merge: save merge state earlierLibravatar Michael J Gruber1-0/+15
If the `git merge` process is killed while waiting for the editor to finish, the merge state is lost but the prepared merge msg and tree is kept. So, a subsequent `git commit` creates a squashed merge even when the user asked for proper merge commit originally. Demonstrate the problem with a test crafted after the in t7502. The test requires EXECKEEPSPID (thus does not run under MINGW). Save the merge state earlier (in the non-squash case) so that it does not get lost. This makes the test pass.

When we are on an unborn branch and merging only one foreign parent, we allow "git merge" to fast-forward to that foreign parent commit. This codepath incorrectly attempted to dereference the list of parents that the merge is going to record even when the list is empty. It must refuse to operate instead when there is no parent. All other codepaths make sure the list is not empty before they dereference it, and are safe. Reported-by: Jose Ivan B. Vilarouca Filho Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-10-30Merge branch 'jk/merge-file-exit-code'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+33
"git merge-file" tried to signal how many conflicts it found, which obviously would not work well when there are too many of them. * jk/merge-file-exit-code: merge-file: clamp exit code to maximum 127
2015-10-29merge-file: clamp exit code to maximum 127Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+33
Git-merge-file is documented to return one of three exit codes: - zero means the merge was successful - a negative number means an error occurred - a positive number indicates the number of conflicts Unfortunately, this all gets stuffed into an 8-bit return code. Which means that if you have 256 conflicts, this wraps to zero, and the merge appears to succeed (and commits a blob full of conflict-marker cruft!). This patch clamps the return value to a maximum of 127, which we should be able to safely represent everywhere. This also leaves 128-255 for other values. Shells (and some parts of git) will typically represent signal death as 128 plus the signal number. And negative values are typically coerced to an 8-bit unsigned value (so "return -1" ends up as 255). Technically negative returns have the same problem (e.g., "-256" wraps back to 0), but this is not a problem in practice, as the only negative value we use is "-1".

2014-05-15git-show: fix 'git show -s' to not add extra terminator after merge commitLibravatar Max Kirillov1-6/+5
When git show -s is called for merge commit it prints extra newline after any merge commit. This differs from output for commits with one parent. Fix it by more thorough checking that diff output is disabled. The code in question exists since commit 3969cf7db1. The additional newline is really needed for cases when patch is requested, test t4013-diff-various.sh contains cases which can demonstrate behavior when the condition is restricted further. Tests: Added merge commit to 'set up a bit of history' case in t7007-show.sh to cover the fix. Existing tests are updated to demonstrate the new behaviour. Earlier, the tests that used "git show -s --pretty=format:%s", even though "--pretty=format:%s" calls for item separator semantics and does not ask for the terminating newline after the last item, expected the output to end with such a newline. They were relying on the buggy behaviour. Use of "--format=%s", which is equivalent to "--pretty=tformat:%s" that asks for a terminating newline after each item, is a more realistic way to use the command. In the test 'merge log messages' the expected data is changed, because it was explicitly listing the extra newline. Also the msg.nologff and msg.nolognoff expected files are replaced by one msg.nolog, because they were diffing because of the bug, and now there should be no difference.

These three options mean "favor fast-forwarding when possible, without creating an unnecessary merge", "never fast-forward and always create a merge commit even when the commit being merged is a strict descendant", and "we do not want to create any merge commit; update only when the merged commit is a strict descendant". They are "pick one out of these three possibilities" options, and correspond to "merge.ff" configuration that is tri-state (yes, no and only). However, the implementation did not follow the usual convention for the command line options (later one wins, and command line overrides what is in the configuration). Fix this by consolidating two variables (fast_forward_only and allow_fast_forward) used in the implementation into one enum that can take one of the three possible values.

Test 'merge log message' was relying on the presence of option `--no-ff` in the configuration.

2012-02-05merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+13
Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge" always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that happens to be a descendant of your current commit. Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be possible to say: $ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30 $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9 and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with: fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting. because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by fast forwarding. We could teach users that now they have to do $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0 but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves. When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag, even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore, this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted to add. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

' Two scripts use a different style with this kind of trivial code enclosed by a test assertion; fix them. The usual style is easier to read since there is less indentation to keep track of and no need to worry about nested quotes; and on the other hand, because the commands in question are trivial, it should not make the test suite any worse at catching future bugs in git. While at it, make some other small tweaks: - spell function definitions with a space before () for consistency with other scripts; - use the self-contained command "git mktree </dev/null" in preference to "git write-tree" which looks at the index when writing an empty tree.

Keeping the old symlink around to make sure that a newly created symlink gets different ino would be sufficient for that purpose. - The one in t7600 is to make sure that "git merge" does not get confused by stat-dirty "file" in the working tree. Again, keeping the old file around and creating an identical copy to ensure a different ino would be sufficient for that purpose.

Since commit 6bb6b034 (builtin-commit: use commit_tree(), 2008-09-10), builtin-commit performs a reduce_heads() unconditionally. However, it's not always needed, and in some cases even harmful. reduce_heads() is not needed for the initial commit or for an "ordinary" commit, because they don't have any or have only one parent, respectively. reduce_heads() must be avoided when 'git commit' is run after a 'git merge --no-ff --no-commit', otherwise it will turn the non-fast-forward merge into fast-forward. For the same reason, reduce_heads() must be avoided when amending such a merge commit. To resolve this issue, 'git merge' will write info about whether fast-forward is allowed or not to $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE. Based on this info, 'git commit' will only perform reduce_heads() when it's committing a merge and fast-forward is enabled. Also add test cases to ensure that non-fast-forward merges are committed and amended properly.
