* submodule: display summary header in boldRamkumar Ramachandra2012-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, 'git diff --submodule' displays output with a bold diff header for non-submodules. So this part is in bold: diff --git a/file1 b/file1 index 30b2f6c..2638038 100644 --- a/file1 +++ b/file1 For submodules, the header looks like this: Submodule submodule1 012b072..248d0fd: Unfortunately, it's easy to miss in the output because it's not bold. Change this. Signed-off-by: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@gmail.com> Acked-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* Merge branch 'jl/submodule-rm'Jeff King2012-10-29
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git rm submodule" cannot blindly remove a submodule directory as its working tree may have local changes, and worse yet, it may even have its repository embedded in it. Teach it some special cases where it is safe to remove a submodule, specifically, when there is no local changes in the submodule working tree, and its repository is not embedded in its working tree but is elsewhere and uses the gitfile mechanism to point at it. * jl/submodule-rm: submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directory
| * submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directoryJens Lehmann2012-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently using "git rm" on a submodule - populated or not - fails with this error: fatal: git rm: '<submodule path>': Is a directory This made sense in the past as there was no way to remove a submodule without possibly removing unpushed parts of the submodule's history contained in its .git directory too, so erroring out here protected the user from possible loss of data. But submodules cloned with a recent git version do not contain the .git directory anymore, they use a gitfile to point to their git directory which is safely stored inside the superproject's .git directory. The work tree of these submodules can safely be removed without losing history, so let's teach git to do so. Using rm on an unpopulated submodule now removes the empty directory from the work tree and the gitlink from the index. If the submodule's directory is missing from the work tree, it will still be removed from the index. Using rm on a populated submodule using a gitfile will apply the usual checks for work tree modification adapted to submodules (unless forced). For a submodule that means that the HEAD is the same as recorded in the index, no tracked files are modified and no untracked files that aren't ignored are present in the submodules work tree (ignored files are deemed expendable and won't stop a submodule's work tree from being removed). That logic has to be applied in all nested submodules too. Using rm on a submodule which has its .git directory inside the work trees top level directory will just error out like it did before to protect the repository, even when forced. In the future git could either provide a message informing the user to convert the submodule to use a gitfile or even attempt to do the conversion itself, but that is not part of this change.

* | submodule: use argv_array instead of hand-building arraysJens Lehmann2012-09-02
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fetch_populated_submodules() allocates the full argv array it uses to recurse into the submodules from the number of given options plus the six argv values it is going to add. It then initializes it with those values which won't change during the iteration and copies the given options into it. Inside the loop the two argv values different for each submodule get replaced with those currently valid. However, this technique is brittle and error-prone (as the comment to explain the magic number 6 indicates), so let's replace it with an argv_array. Instead of replacing the argv values, push them to the argv_array just before the run_command() call (including the option separating them) and pop them from the argv_array right after that.

* submodule: Search for merges only at end of recursive mergeBrad King2011-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The submodule merge search is not useful during virtual merges because the results cannot be used automatically. Furthermore any suggestions made by the search may apply to commits different than HEAD:sub and MERGE_HEAD:sub, thus confusing the user. Skip searching for submodule merges during a virtual merge such as that between B and C while merging the heads of: B---BC / \ / A X \ / \ C---CB Run the search only when the recursion level is zero (!o->call_depth).

* push: Don't push a repository with unpushed submodulesFredrik Gustafsson2011-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available on the server. This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When using this option git will check that all submodule commits that are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule. To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has been removed from combined-diff.c.

* fetch/pull: Add the 'on-demand' value to the --recurse-submodules optionJens Lehmann2011-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | Until now the --recurse-submodules option could only be used to either fetch all populated submodules recursively or to disable recursion completely. As fetch and pull now by default just fetch those submodules for which new commits have been fetched in the superproject, a command line option to enforce that behavior is needed to be able to override configuration settings.

* fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessaryJens Lehmann2011-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and "gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as the default for fetch and pull. Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref() "git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed. Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be ignored anyway. There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are not renamed. In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

* fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules optionJens Lehmann2010-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch new commits in populated submodules from their remote. This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of "git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to discover later that they are needed. This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index. The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able to print out the full paths of nested submodules.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements a simple merge strategy for submodule hashes. We check whether one side of the merge candidates is already contained in the other and then merge automatically. If both sides contain changes we search for a merge in the submodule. In case a single one exists we check that out and suggest it as the merge resolution. A list of candidates is returned when we find multiple merges that contain both sides of the changes. This is useful for a workflow in which the developers can publish topic branches in submodules and a separate maintainer merges them. In case the developers always wait until their branch gets merged before tracking them in the superproject all merges of branches that contain submodule changes will be resolved automatically. If developers choose to track their feature branch the maintainer might get a conflict but git will search the submodule for a merge and suggest it/them as a resolution.

* | Submodules: Use "ignore" settings from .gitmodules too for diff and statusJens Lehmann2010-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The .gitmodules file is parsed for "submodule.<name>.ignore" entries before looking for them in .git/config.

* | Submodules: Add the new "ignore" config option for diff and statusJens Lehmann2010-08-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new "ignore" config option controls the default behavior for "git status" and the diff family. It specifies under what circumstances they consider submodules as modified and can be set separately for each submodule. The command line option "--ignore-submodules=" has been extended to accept the new parameter "none" for both status and diff. Users that chose submodules to get rid of long work tree scanning times might want to set the "dirty" option for those submodules. This brings back the pre 1.7.0 behavior, where submodule work trees were never scanned for modifications. By using "--ignore-submodules=none" on the command line the status and diff commands can be told to do a full scan. This option can be set to the following values (which have the same name and meaning as for the "--ignore-submodules" option of status and diff): "all": All changes to the submodule will be ignored. "dirty": Only differences of the commit recorded in the superproject and the submodules HEAD will be considered modifications, all changes to the work tree of the submodule will be ignored. When using this value, the submodule will not be scanned for work tree changes at all, leading to a performance benefit on large submodules. "untracked": Only untracked files in the submodules work tree are ignored, a changed HEAD and/or modified files in the submodule will mark it as modified. "none" (which is the default): Either untracked or modified files in a submodules work tree or a difference between the subdmodules HEAD and the commit recorded in the superproject will make it show up as changed. This value is added as a new parameter for the "--ignore-submodules" option of the diff family and "git status" so the user can override the settings in the configuration.

* Add the option "--ignore-submodules" to "git status"Jens Lehmann2010-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some use cases it is not desirable that "git status" considers submodules that only contain untracked content as dirty. This may happen e.g. when the submodule is not under the developers control and not all build generated files have been added to .gitignore by the upstream developers. Using the "untracked" parameter for the "--ignore-submodules" option disables checking for untracked content and lets git diff report them as changed only when they have new commits or modified content. Sometimes it is not wanted to have submodules show up as changed when they just contain changes to their work tree (this was the behavior before 1.7.0). An example for that are scripts which just want to check for submodule commits while ignoring any changes to the work tree. Also users having large submodules known not to change might want to use this option, as the - sometimes substantial - time it takes to scan the submodule work tree(s) is saved when using the "dirty" parameter. And if you want to ignore any changes to submodules, you can now do that by using this option without parameters or with "all" (when the config option status.submodulesummary is set, using "all" will also suppress the output of the submodule summary). A new function handle_ignore_submodules_arg() is introduced to parse this option new to "git status" in a single location, as "git diff" already knew it.

| | | | | | | | | | | Since 1.7.0 submodules are considered dirty when they contain untracked files.

And if the HEAD of the submodule is equal to the ref diffed against in the superproject, drop the output which would just show the same SHA1s and no commit message headlines. To achieve that, the dirty_submodule bitfield is expanded to two bits. The output of "git status" inside the submodule is parsed to set the according bits.
