2006-07-14Do not use perl in git-commit.shAlex Riesen
git-commit.sh has the only one place where perl is used and there it can quite trivially be done in sh. git-ls-files without "-z" produces quoted output, even if is different from that produced by perl code it is good enough.

2006-07-11Record the type of commit operation in the reflog.Shawn Pearce
If committing a merge (.git/MERGE_HEAD exists), an initial tree (no HEAD) or using --amend to amend the prior commit then denote the subtype of commit in the reflog. This helps to distinguish amended or merge commits from normal commits. In the case of --amend the prior sha1 is probably the commit which is being thrown away in favor of the new commit. Since it is likely that the old commit doesn't have any ref pointing to it anymore it can be interesting to know why that the commit was replaced and orphaned. In the case of a merge the prior sha1 is probably the first parent of the new merge commit. Consequently having its prior sha1 in the reflog is slightly less interesting but its still informative to know the commit was the result of a merge which had to be completed by hand.

2006-06-25git-commit: filter out log message lines only when editor was run.Yann Dirson
The current behaviour strips out lines starting with a # even when fed through stdin or -m. This is particularly bad when importing history from another SCM (tailor 0.9.23 uses git-commit). In the best cases all lines are stripped and the commit fails with a confusing "empty log message" error, but in many cases the commit is done, with loss of information. Note that it is quite peculiar to just have "#" handled as a leading comment char here. One commonly meet CVS: or CG: or STG: as prefixes, and using GIT: would be more robust as well as consistent with other commit tools. However, that would break any tool relying on the # (if any).

2006-06-24git-merge --squashJunio C Hamano
Some people tend to do many little commits on a topic branch, recording all the trials and errors, and when the topic is reasonably cooked well, would want to record the net effect of the series as one commit on top of the mainline, removing the cruft from the history. The topic is then abandoned or forked off again from that point at the mainline. The barebone porcelainish that comes with core git tools does not officially support such operation, but you can fake it by using "git pull --no-merge" when such a topic branch is not a strict superset of the mainline, like this: git checkout mainline git pull --no-commit . that-topic-branch : fix conflicts if any rm -f .git/MERGE_HEAD git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message' git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged This however does not work when the topic branch is a fast forward of the mainline, because normal "git pull" will never create a merge commit in such a case, and there is nothing special --no-commit could do to begin with. This patch introduces a new option, --squash, to support such a workflow officially in both fast-forward case and true merge case. The user-level operation would be the same in both cases: git checkout mainline git pull --squash . that-topic-branch : fix conflicts if any -- naturally, there would be : no conflict if fast forward. git commit -a -m 'consolidated commit log message' git branch -f that-topic-branch ;# now fully merged When the current branch is already up-to-date with respect to the other branch, there truly is nothing to do, so the new option does not have any effect. This was brought up in #git IRC channel recently. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-23git status: skip empty directories, and add -u to show all untracked filesMatthias Lederhofer
By default, we use --others --directory to show uninteresting directories (to get user's attention) without their contents (to unclutter output). Showing empty directories do not make sense, so pass --no-empty-directory when we do so. Giving -u (or --untracked) disables this uncluttering to let the user get all untracked files.

When running "git commit --amend" only to fix the commit log message without any content change, we mistakenly showed the git-status output that says "nothing to commit" without commenting it out. If you have already run update-index but you want to amend the top commit, "git commit --amend --only" without any paths should have worked, because --only means "starting from the base commit, update-index these paths only to prepare the index to commit, and perform the commit". However, we refused -o without paths. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

We still need the "do we have anything to commit?" check by running "status" (which has to know what to do in different cases with -i/-o/-a), but there is no point appending its output to the proposed commit message given by the user.

2006-03-03git-commit --amendJunio C Hamano
The new flag is used to amend the tip of the current branch. Prepare the tree object you would want to replace the latest commit as usual (this includes the usual -i/-o and explicit paths), and the commit log editor is seeded with the commit message from the tip of the current branch. The commit you create replaces the current tip -- if it was a merge, it will have the parents of the current tip as parents -- so the current top commit is discarded. It is a rough equivalent for: $ git reset --soft HEAD^ $ ... do something else to come up with the right tree ... $ git commit -c ORIG_HEAD but can be used to amend a merge commit.

2006-02-14commit: detect misspelled pathspec while making a partial commit.Junio C Hamano
When you say "git commit Documentaiton" to make partial commit for the files only in that directory, we did not detect that as a misspelled pathname and attempted to commit index without change. If nothing matched, there is no harm done, but if the index gets modified otherwise by having another valid pathspec or after an explicit update-index, a user will not notice without paying attention to the "git status" preview. This introduces --error-unmatch option to ls-files, and uses it to detect this common user error. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-02-10git-status -vJunio C Hamano
This revamps the git-status command to take the same set of parameters as git commit. It gives a preview of what is being committed with that command. With -v flag, it shows the diff output between the HEAD commit and the index that would be committed if these flags were given to git-commit command. git-commit also acquires -v flag (it used to mean "verify" but that is the default anyway and there is --no-verify to turn it off, so not much is lost), which uses the updated git-status -v to seed the commit log buffer. This is handy for writing a log message while reviewing the changes one last time. Now, git-commit and git-status are internally share the same implementation. Unlike previous git-commit change, this uses a temporary index to prepare the index file that would become the real index file after a successful commit, and moves it to the real index file once the commit is actually made. This makes it safer than the previous scheme, which stashed away the original index file and restored it after an aborted commit. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-07git-commit: finishing touches.Junio C Hamano
Introduce --only flag to allow the new "partial commit" semantics when paths are specified. The default is still the traditional --include semantics. Once peoples' fingers and scripts that want the traditional behaviour are updated to explicitly say --include, we could change it to either default to --only, or refuse to operate without either --only/--include when paths are specified. This also fixes a couple of bugs in the previous round. Namely: - forgot to save/restore index in some cases. - forgot to use the temporary index to show status when '--only paths...' semantics was used. - --author did not take precedence when reusing an existing commit. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-07git-commit: revamp the git-commit semantics.Junio C Hamano
- "git commit" without _any_ parameter keeps the traditional behaviour. It commits the current index. We commit the whole index even when this form is run from a subdirectory. - "git commit --include paths..." (or "git commit -i paths...") is equivalent to: git update-index --remove paths... git commit - "git commit paths..." acquires a new semantics. This is an incompatible change that needs user training, which I am still a bit reluctant to swallow, but enough people seem to have complained that it is confusing to them. It 1. refuses to run if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD exists, and reminds trained git users that the traditional semantics now needs -i flag. 2. refuses to run if named paths... are different in HEAD and the index (ditto about reminding). Added paths are OK. 3. reads HEAD commit into a temporary index file. 4. updates named paths... from the working tree in this temporary index. 5. does the same updates of the paths... from the working tree to the real index. 6. makes a commit using the temporary index that has the current HEAD as the parent, and updates the HEAD with this new commit. - "git commit --all" can run from a subdirectory, but it updates the index with all the modified files and does a whole tree commit. - In all cases, when the command decides not to create a new commit, the index is left as it was before the command is run. This means that the two "git diff" in the following sequence: $ git diff $ git commit -a $ git diff would show the same diff if you abort the commit process by making the commit log message empty. This commit also introduces much requested --author option. $ git commit --author 'A U Thor <author@example.com>' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-07git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve.Junio C Hamano
In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches, the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream). This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this process by recording the conflicted automerge results and corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge, and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.
