A simple refactoring of the delete branch dialog to allow use of
the class construct to better organize the code and to reuse the

This rather large change pulls the "Starting Revision" part of the
new branch dialog into a mega widget that we can use anytime we
need to select a commit SHA-1. To make use of the mega widget I
have also refactored the branch dialog to use the class system,
much like the delete remote branch dialog already does.

Some newer features of git-gui want to rely on features that are
new to Git 1.5.3. Since they were added as part of the 1.5.3
development series we cannot use those features with versions of
Git that are older than 1.5.3, such as from the stable 1.5.2 series.
We introduce [git-version >= 1.5.3] to allow the caller to get a
response of 0 if the current version of git is < 1.5.3 and 1 if
the current version of git is >= 1.5.3. This makes it easy to
setup conditional code based upon the version of Git available to
us at runtime.
Instead of parsing the version text by hand we now use the Tcl
[package vcompare] subcommand to compare the two version strings.
This works nicely, as Tcl as already done all of the hard work
of doing version comparsions. But we do have to remove the Git
specific components such as the Git commit SHA-1, commit count and
release candidate suffix (rc) as we want only the final release
version number.

Pushing changes to a remote system is a very common action for
many users of git-gui, so much so that in some workflows a user
is supposed to push immediately after they make a local commit
so that their change(s) are immediately available for their
teammates to view and build on top of.
Including the push button right below the commit button on the
left toolbar indicates that users should probably perform this
action after they have performed the commit action.

Users often need to be able to push the current branch so that they
can publish their recent changes to anyone they are collaborating
with on the project. Associating a keyboard action with this will
make it easier for keyboard-oriented users to quickly activate the

git-gui: properly popup error if gitk should be started but is not installed
|
|
On 'Visualize ...', a gitk process is started. Since it is run in the
background, catching a possible startup error doesn't work, and the error
output goes to the console git-gui is started from. The most probable
startup error is that gitk is not installed; so before trying to start,
check for the existence of the gitk program, and popup an error message
unless it's found.

git-gui: Don't require a .pvcsrc to create Tools/Migrate menu hack
git-gui: Don't nice git blame on MSYS as nice is not supported
git-gui: Don't require $DISPLAY just to get --version
|
|
The Tools/Migrate menu option is a hack just for me. Yes, that's
right, git-gui has a hidden feature that really only works for me,
and the users that I support within my day-job's great firewall.
The menu option is not supported outside of that environment.
In the past we only enabled Tools/Migrate if our special local
script 'gui-miga' existed in the proper location, and if there
was a special '.pvcsrc' in the top level of the working directory.
This latter test for the '.pvcsrc' file is now failing, as the file
was removed from all Git repositories due to changes made to other
tooling within the great firewall's realm.
I have changed the test to only work on Cygwin, and only if the
special 'gui-miga' is present. This works around the configuration
changes made recently within the great firewall's realm, but really
this entire Tools/Migrate thing should be abstracted out into some
sort of plugin system so other users can extend git-gui as they need.

Junio asked that we don't force the user to have a valid X11 server
configured in $DISPLAY just to obtain the output of `git gui version`.
This makes sense, the user may be an automated tool that is running
without an X server available to it, such as a build script or other
sort of package management system. Or it might just be a user working
in a non-GUI environment and wondering "what version of git-gui do I
have installed?".
Tcl has a lot of warts, but one of its better ones is that a comment
can be continued to the next line by escaping the LF that would have
ended the comment using a backslash-LF sequence. In the past we have
used this trick to escape away the 'exec wish' that is actually a Bourne
shell script and keep Tcl from executing it.
I'm using that feature here to comment out the Bourne shell script and
hide it from the Tcl engine. Except now our Bourne shell script is a
few lines long and checks to see if it should print the version, or not.

git-gui: Save geometry before the window layout is damaged
git-gui: Give amend precedence to HEAD over MERGE_MSG
|
|
Because Tk does not assure us the order that it will process
children in before it destroys the main toplevel we cannot safely
save our geometry data during a "bind . <Destroy>" event binding.
The geometry may have already changed as a result of a one or
more children being removed from the layout. This was pointed
out in gitk by Mark Levedahl, and patched over there by commit
b6047c5a8166a71e01c6b63ebbb67c6894d95114.
So we now also use "wm protocol . WM_DELETE_WINDOW" to detect when
the window is closed by the user, and forward that close event to
our main do_quit routine.

Apparently git-commit.sh (the command line commit user interface in
core Git) always gives precedence to the prior commit's message if
`commit --amend` is used and a $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG file also exists.
We actually were doing the same here in git-gui, but the amended
message got lost if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG already existed because
we started a rescan immediately after loading the prior commit's
body into the edit buffer. When that happened the rescan found
MERGE_MSG existed and replaced the commit message buffer with the
contents of that file. This meant the user never saw us pick up
the commit message of the prior commit we are about to replace.
Johannes Sixt <J.Sixt@eudaptics.com> found this bug in git-gui by
running `git cherry-pick -n $someid` and then trying to amend the
prior commit in git-gui, thus combining the contents of $someid
with the contents of HEAD, and reusing the commit message of HEAD,
not $someid. With the recent changes to make cherry-pick use the
$GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG file Johannes saw git-gui pick up the message
of $someid, not HEAD. Now we always use HEAD if we are amending.

If the user clicks on a line region that we haven't yet received
an annotation for from git-blame we show them "Loading annotation".
But I don't want the user to confuse this loading message with a
commit whose first line is "Loading annotation" and think we messed
up our display somehow. Since we never use italics for anything
else, I'm going with the idea that italic slant can be used to show
data is missing/elided out at the time being.

Earlier I missed making sure our spinbox widgets used the same font

To improve performance on fork+exec impoverished systems (such as
Windows) we want to avoid running git-symbolic-ref on every rescan
if we can do so. A quick way to implement such an avoidance is to
just read the HEAD ref ourselves; we'll either see it as a symref
(starts with "ref: ") or we'll see it as a detached head (40 hex
digits). In either case we can treat that as our current branch.

Git has supported remote branch deletion for quite some time, but
I've just never gotten around to supporting it in git-gui. Some
workflows have users push short-term branches to some remote Git
repository, then delete them a few days/weeks later when that topic
has been fully merged into the main trunk. Typically in that style
of workflow the user will want to remove the branches they created.
We now offer a "Delete..." option in the Push menu, right below the
generic "Push..." option. When the user opens our generic delete
dialog they can select a preconfigured remote, or enter a random
URL. We run `git ls-remote $url` to obtain the list of branches and
tags known there, and offer this list in a listbox for the user to
select one or more from.
Like our local branch delete dialog we offer the user a way to filter
their selected branch list down to only those branches that have been
merged into another branch. This is a very common operation as the
user will likely want to select a range of topic branches, but only
delete them if they have been merged into some sort of common trunk.
Unfortunately our remote merge base detection is not nearly as strict
as the local branch version. We only offer remote heads as the test
commit (not any local ones) and we require that all necessary commits
to successfully run git-merge-base are available locally. If one or
more is missing we suggest that the user run a fetch first.
Since the Git remote protocol doesn't let us specify what the tested
commit was when we evaluated our decision to execute the remote delete
there is a race condition here. The user could do a merge test against
the trunk, determine a topic branch was fully merged, but before they
can start pushing the delete request another user could fast-forward
the remote topic branch to a new commit that is not merged into the
trunk. The delete will arrive after, and remove the topic, even though
it was not fully merged.

Git's native command line interface has had branch renaming
support for quite a while, through the -m/-M options to the
git-branch command line tool. This is an extremely useful
feature as users may decide that the name of their current
branch is not an adequate description, or was just entered
incorrectly when it was created.
Even though most people would consider git-branch to be a
Porcelain tool I'm using it here in git-gui as it is the
only code that implements the rather complex set of logic
needed to successfully rename a branch in Git. Currently
that is along the lines of:
*) Backup the ref
*) Backup the reflog
*) Delete the old ref
*) Create the new ref
*) Move the backed up reflog to the new ref
*) Record the rename event in the reflog
*) If the current branch was renamed, update HEAD
*) If HEAD changed, record the rename event in the HEAD reflog
*) Rename the [branch "$name"] section in the config file
Since that is some rather ugly set of functionality to implement
and get right, and some of it isn't easily accessible through the
raw plumbing layer I'm just cheating by relying on the Porcelain.

The Windows and Mac OS X platforms do not generally use the tearoff
menu feature found on traditional X11 based systems. On Windows the
Tk engine does support the feature, but it really is out of place and
just confuses people who aren't used to working on a UNIX system. On
Mac OS X its not supported for the root menu bar and its submenus, as
it doesn't fit into the overall platform UI model.

When we are using our "non-optimized" tclIndex format (which is
just a list of filenames, in the order necessary for source'ing)
we are doing all of our loading before we even tested to see if
GITGUI_VERBOSE was set in the environment. This meant we never
showed the files as we sourced them into the environment.
Now we setup our overloaded auto_load and source scripts before
we attempt to define our library path, or source the scripts that
it mentions. This way GITGUI_VERBOSE is always honored if set.

Because we now try to automatically guess the library directory
in certain installations users may wonder where git-gui is getting
its supporting files from. We now display this location in our
About dialog, and we also include the location we are getting our
Git executables from.
Unfortunately users cannot use this 'About git-gui' dialog to
troubleshoot library loading problems; the dialog is defined by
code that exists in the library directory, creating a catch-22.

In some workflows it is common for a large number of temporary
branches to be created in a remote repository, get fetched to
clients that typically only use git-gui, and then later have
those branches deleted from the remote repository once they have
been fully merged into all destination branches. Users of git-gui
would obviously like to have their local tracking branches cleaned
up for them, otherwise their local tracking branch namespace would
grow out of control.
The best known way to remove these tracking branches is to run
"git remote prune <remotename>". Even though it is more of a
Porcelain command than plumbing I'm invoking it through the UI,
because frankly I don't see a reason to reimplement its ls-remote
output filtering and config file parsing.
A new configuration option (gui.pruneduringfetch) can be used to
automatically enable running "git remote prune <remotename>" after
the fetch of that remote also completes successfully. This is off
by default as it require an additional network connection and is
not very fast on Cygwin if a large number of tracking branches have
been removed (due to the 2 fork+exec calls per branch).

Johannes Sixt asked me to try to avoid embedding the runtime location
of git-gui's library directory in the executable script. Not embedding
it helps the MinGW to be relocatable to another directory should a user
wish to install the programs in a directory other than the location the
packager wanted them to be installed into.
Most of this is a hack. We try to determine if the path of our master
git-gui script will be able to locate the lib by ../share/git-gui/lib.
This should be true if $(gitexecdir) and $(libdir) have the same prefix.
If they do then we defer the assignment of $(libdir) until runtime, and
we get it from $argv0 rather than embedding it into the script itself.

That was not what I wanted. I really wanted M1B to be bound to

Our GITGUI_LIBDIR macro was testing only for @@ at the start of
the path, assuming nobody would ever find that to be a reasonable
prefix for a directory to install our library into. That is most
likely a valid assumption, but its even more unlikely they would
have the start be @@GITGUI_ and the end be @@. Note that we
cannot use the full string here because that would get expanded

Petr Baudis pointed out the main git.git repository's Makefile dies
now if git-gui 0.7.0-rc1 or later is being used and TCL_PATH was not
set to a working tclsh program path. This breaks people who may have
a working build configuration today and suddenly upgrade to the latest
git release.
The tclIndex is required for git-gui to load its associated lib files,
but using the Tcl auto_load procedure to source only the files we need
is a performance optimization. We can emulate the auto_load by just
source'ing every file in that directory, assuming we source class.tcl
first to initialize our crude class system.

The browser subcommand now optionally accepts a single revision
argument; if no revision argument is supplied then we use the
current branch as the tree to browse. This is very common, so
its a nice option.
Our blame subcommand now tries to perform the same assumptions
as the command line git-blame; both the revision and the file
are optional. We assume the argument is a filename if the file
exists in the working directory, otherwise we assume the argument
is a revision name. A -- can be supplied between the two to force
parsing, or before the filename to force it to be a filename.

I think it was Andy Parkins who pointed out that git gui blame HEAD f

we apply the parameters.

I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script
and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code.
Since most of the program is organized into different units of
functionality and not all users will need all units immediately
on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into
multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us.
This should help not only to better organize the source, but
it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl
parser does not need to read as much script before it can show
the UI. In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half
of git-gui now.
Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime
location. This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib
and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of
reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be
$(gitexecdir)/../share.
We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile,
as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory. I'm
hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building
from source.
I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a
huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files. All of
the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library
files.
