| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Checking paths out of a tree is (currently) defined to do: - Grab the paths from the named tree that match the given pathspec, and add them to the index; - Check out the contents from the index for paths that match the pathspec to the working tree; and while at it - If the given pathspec did not match anything, suspect a typo from the command line and error out without updating the index nor the working tree. Suppose that the branch you are working on has dir/myfile, and the "other" branch has dir/other but not dir/myfile. Further imagine that you have either modified or removed dir/myfile in your working tree, but you have not run "git add dir/myfile" or "git rm dir/myfile" to tell Git about your local change. Running $ git checkout other dir would add dir/other to the index with the contents taken out of the "other" branch, and check out the paths from the index that match the pathspec "dir", namely, "dir/other" and "dir/myfile", overwriting your local changes to "dir/myfile", even though "other" branch does not even know about that file. Fix it by updating the working tree only with the index entries that was read from the "other" tree. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Factor out the code to clear the commit marks for a whole struct object_array from builtin/checkout.c into its own exported function clear_commit_marks_for_object_array and use it in bisect and bundle as well. It handles tags and commits and ignores objects of any other type. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of going through all the references again when we clear the commit marks, do it like bisect and bundle and gain ownership of the list of pending objects which we constructed from those references. We simply copy the struct object_array that points to the list, set the flag leak_pending and then prepare_revision_walk won't destroy it and it's ours. We use it to clear the marks and free it at the end. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change check_ref_format() to take a flags argument that indicates what is acceptable in the reference name (analogous to "git check-ref-format"'s "--allow-onelevel" and "--refspec-pattern"). This is more convenient for callers and also fixes a failure in the test suite (and likely elsewhere in the code) by enabling "onelevel" and "refspec-pattern" to be allowed independently of each other. Also rename check_ref_format() to check_refname_format() to make it obvious that it deals with refnames rather than references themselves.

This happens when the command is run with "--set-upstream" option. The earlier safety-measure to prevent "git branch -f $branch $commit" from updating the currently checked out branch did not take it into account, and we no longer can update the tracking information of the current branch. Minimally fix this regression by telling the validation code if it is called to really update the value of a potentially existing branch, or if the caller merely is interested in updating auxiliary aspects of a branch.

It also leaves the reflog in a confusing state (you would be warned when trying to read it). "git checkout -B <current branch> <foo>" is also partly vulnerable to this bug; due to inconsistent pre-flight checks it would perform half of its task and then abort just before rewriting the branch. Again this manifested itself as the index file getting out-of-sync with HEAD. "git branch -f" already guarded against this problem, and aborts with a fatal error. Update "git branch -M", "git checkout -B" and "git branch -f" to share the same check before allowing a branch to be created. These prevent you from updating the current branch. We considered suggesting the use of "git reset" in the failure message but concluded that it was not possible to discern what the user was actually trying to do.

This bug is visible only if the normalized path (i.e., the relative path from the repository root) is longer than the prefix. Otherwise, the code skips over the normalized path and reads from an unused memory location which still contains a leftover of the original command line argument. So instead, use the existing facilities to deal with relative paths correctly. Also fix inconsistency between "checkout" and "commit", e.g. $ cd Documentation $ git checkout nosuch.txt error: pathspec 'Documentation/nosuch.txt' did not match... $ git commit nosuch.txt error: pathspec 'nosuch.txt' did not match... by propagating the prefix down the codepath that reports the error.

The right way to check if a ref exists is to check with resolve_ref(). A naïve solution that might appear attractive but does not work is to forbid slashes in get_describe_name() but that will not work. A describe name is is in the form of "ANYTHING-g<short sha1>", and that ANYTHING part comes from a original tag name used in the repository the user ran the describe command. A sick user could have a confusing hierarchical tag whose name is "refs/heads/foobar" (stored as refs/tags/refs/heads/foobar") to generate a describe name "refs/heads/foobar-6-g02ac983", and we should be able to use that name to refer to the object whose name is 02ac983.

This is a good safety measure for people who are not comfortable with the detached HEAD state, but the advice on how to keep the state you just left was given even to those who set advice.detachedHead to false.

Users are accustomed to seeing commits in this format, and having the sha1 of each commit can be useful if you want to cherry-pick instead of creating a new branch.

| | |/ / | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You can detach the HEAD at an arbitrary commit in order to browse the files in various points in the history or build older versions of the software, without recording any new commit, and come back to an existing branch. When used in this "sightseer" mode, detached HEAD is a perfectly safe mechanism. It also is a useful state to experiment with throw-away commits. When coming back to an existing branch with "git checkout master", however, the commits that were created on the detached HEAD will become unreachable from anywhere but the reflog of the HEAD. Check if the commit we are about to leave is connected to some ref, and give a final warning otherwise to remind the user for safety. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

After this change, the function vaguely follows the following pseudocode: if (-B or -b) create branch; if (plain "git checkout" or "git checkout HEAD") ; else if (--detach or checking out by non-branch commit name) detach HEAD; else if (checking out by branch name) attach HEAD; One nice side benefit is to make it possible to remove handling of the --detach option from outside switch_branches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code to parse and consume the tree name and "--" in commands such as "git checkout @{-1} -- '*.c'" is intimidatingly long. Split it out into a separate function and make it easier to skip on first reading by making the data it uses and produces more explicit. No functional change intended.

Because checkout primarily works on branches, though, we switch that behavior to prefer branches. However, there was a bug in the implementation in which we used lookup_commit_reference (which used the regular lookup rules) to get the actual commit to checkout. Checking out an ambiguous ref therefore ended up putting us in an extremely broken state in which we wrote the branch ref into HEAD, but actually checked out the tree for the tag. This patch fixes the bug by always attempting to pull the commit to be checked out from the branch-ified version of the name we were given. Patch by Junio, tests and commit message from Jeff King.

| |/ / |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Functions such as hashcmp that expect a binary SHA-1 value take parameters of type "unsigned char *" to avoid accepting a textual SHA-1 passed by mistake. Unfortunately, this means passing the string literal EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN requires an ugly cast. Tweak the definition of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN to produce a value of more convenient type. In the future the definition might change to extern const unsigned char empty_tree_sha1_bin[20]; #define EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN empty_tree_sha1_bin Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
