* Merge branch 'mm/conflict-advice'Junio C Hamano2010-01-20

| * Be more user-friendly when refusing to do something because of conflict.Matthieu Moy2010-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various commands refuse to run in the presence of conflicts (commit, merge, pull, cherry-pick/revert). They all used to provide rough, and inconsistant error messages. A new variable advice.resolveconflict is introduced, and allows more verbose messages, pointing the user to the appropriate solution. For commit, the error message used to look like this: $ git commit foo.txt: needs merge foo.txt: unmerged (c34a92682e0394bc0d6f4d4a67a8e2d32395c169) foo.txt: unmerged (3afcd75de8de0bb5076942fcb17446be50451030) foo.txt: unmerged (c9785d77b76dfe4fb038bf927ee518f6ae45ede4) error: Error building trees The "need merge" line is given by refresh_cache. We add the IN_PORCELAIN option to make the output more consistant with the other porcelain commands, and catch the error in return, to stop with a clean error message. The next lines were displayed by a call to cache_tree_update(), which is not reached anymore if we noticed the conflict. The new output looks like: U foo.txt fatal: 'commit' is not possible because you have unmerged files. Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>' as appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit, or use 'git commit -a'. Pull is slightly modified to abort immediately if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD exists instead of waiting for merge to complain. The behavior of merge and the test-case are slightly modified to reflect the usual flow: start with conflicts, fix them, and afterwards get rid of MERGE_HEAD, with different error messages at each stage.

* | Generalize and libify index_is_dirty() to index_differs_from(...)Stephan Beyer2009-02-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | index_is_dirty() in builtin-revert.c checks if the index is dirty. This patch generalizes this function to check if the index differs from a revision, i.e. the former index_is_dirty() behavior can now be achieved by index_differs_from("HEAD", 0). The second argument "diff_flags" allows to set further diff option flags like DIFF_OPT_IGNORE_SUBMODULES. See DIFF_OPT_* macros in diff.h for a list. index_differs_from() seems to be useful for more than builtin-revert.c, so it is moved into diff-lib.c and also used in builtin-commit.c. Yet to mention: - "rev.abbrev = 0;" can be safely removed. This has no impact on performance or functioning of neither setup_revisions() nor run_diff_index(). - rev.pending.objects is free()d because this fixes a leak.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous code mistakenly used wt_status_prepare to check whether the index had anything commitable in it; however, that function is just an init function, and will never report a dirty index. The correct way with wt_status_* would be to call wt_status_print with the output pointing to /dev/null or similar. However, that does extra work by both examining the working tree and spewing status information to nowhere. Instead, let's just implement the useful subset of wt_status_print as an "is_index_dirty" function. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* | Avoid unnecessary "if-before-free" tests.Jim Meyering2008-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change removes all obvious useless if-before-free tests. E.g., it replaces code like this: if (some_expression) free (some_expression); with the now-equivalent: free (some_expression); It is equivalent not just because POSIX has required free(NULL) to work for a long time, but simply because it has worked for so long that no reasonable porting target fails the test. Here's some evidence from nearly 1.5 years ago: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2006-October/031544.html FYI, the change below was prepared by running the following: git ls-files -z | xargs -0 \ perl -0x3b -pi -e \ 's/\bif\s*\(\s*(\S+?)(?:\s*!=\s*NULL)?\s*\)\s+(free\s*\(\s*\1\s*\))/$2/s' Note however, that it doesn't handle brace-enclosed blocks like "if (x) { free (x); }". But that's ok, since there were none like that in git sources. Beware: if you do use the above snippet, note that it can produce syntactically invalid C code. That happens when the affected "if"-statement has a matching "else". E.g., it would transform this if (x) free (x); else foo (); into this: free (x); else foo (); There were none of those here, either. If you're interested in automating detection of the useless tests, you might like the useless-if-before-free script in gnulib: [it *does* detect brace-enclosed free statements, and has a --name=S option to make it detect free-like functions with different names] http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=build-aux/useless-if-before-free Addendum: Remove one more (in imap-send.c), spotted by Jean-Luc Herren <jlh@gmx.ch>.

* | Make error messages from cherry-pick/revert more sensibleJunio C Hamano2008-02-05
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original "rewrite in C" did somewhat a sloppy job while stealing code from git-write-tree. The caller pretends as if the write_tree() function would return an error code and being able to issue a sensible error message itself, but write_tree() function just calls die() and never returns an error. Worse yet, the function claims that it was running git-write-tree (which is no longer true after cherry-pick stole it).

* revert/cherry-pick: do not mention the original refJunio C Hamano2007-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When you cherry-pick or revert a commit, naming it with an annotated tag, we added a comment, attempting to repeat what we got from the end user, to the message. But this was inconsistent. When we got "cherry-pick branch", we recorded the object name (40-letter SHA-1) without saying anything like "original was 'branch'". There was no need to. Also recent rewrite to use parse-options made it impossible to parrot the original command line without "unparsing".

* Use .git/MERGE_MSG in cherry-pick/revertShawn O. Pearce2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than storing the temporary commit message data in .msg (in the working tree) we now store the message data in .git/MERGE_MSG. By storing the message in the .git/ directory we are sure we will never have a collision with a user file, should a project actually have a ".msg" file in their top level tree. We also don't need to worry about leaving this stale file behind during a `reset --hard` and have it show up in the output of status. We are using .git/MERGE_MSG here to store the temporary message as it is an already established convention between git-merge, git-am and git-rebase that git-commit will default the user's edit buffer to the contents of .git/MERGE_MSG. If the user is going to need to resolve this commit or wants to edit the message on their own prepping that file with the desired message "just works". Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
