We have a couple of tests in the t34xx range that rely on reflogs. This
never really used to be a problem, but in a subsequent commit we will
change the default maintenance strategy from "gc" to "geometric", and
this will cause us to drop all reflogs in these tests.
This may seem surprising and like a bug at first, but it's actually not.
The main difference between these two strategies is that the "gc"
strategy will skip all maintenance in case the object database is in a
well-optimized state. The "geometric" strategy has separate subtasks
though, and the conditions for each of these tasks is evaluated on a
case by case basis. This means that even if the object database is in
good shape, we may still decide to expire reflogs.
So why is that a problem? The issue is that Git's test suite hardcodes
the committer and author dates to a date in 2005. Interestingly though,
these hardcoded dates not only impact the commits, but also the reflog
entries. The consequence is that all newly written reflog entries are
immediately considered stale as our reflog expiration threshold is in
the range of weeks, only. It follows that executing `git reflog expire`
will thus immediately purge all reflog entries.
This hasn't been a problem in our test suite by pure chance, as the
repository shapes simply didn't cause us to perform actual garbage
collection. But with the upcoming "geometric" strategy we _will_ start
to execute `git reflog expire`, thus surfacing this issue.
Prepare for this by explicitly disabling reflog expiration in tests
impacted by this upcoming change.

"core.commentChar=auto" that attempts to dynamically pick a
suitable comment character is non-workable, as it is too much
trouble to support for little benefit, and is marked as deprecated.
* pw/3.0-commentchar-auto-deprecation:
commit: print advice when core.commentString=auto
config: warn on core.commentString=auto
breaking-changes: deprecate support for core.commentString=auto
|
|
Add some advice on how to change the config settings when
"core.commentString=auto" or "core.commentChar=auto". The advice
includes instructions for clearing the config setting or setting a
fixed comment string. To try and be as specific as possible, the advice
is customized based on the user's config. If "core.commentString=auto"
is set in the system config and the user does not have write
access then the advice omits the instructions to clear the config
and recommends changing the global config instead. An alternative
approach would be to advise the user to run "git config --show-origin"
and leave them to figure out how to fix it themselves but that seems
rather unfriendly. As we're forcing them to update their config we
should try and make that as easy as possible.
In order to generate this advice we need to record each file where
either of the config keys is set and whether a key occurs more that
once in a given file. This lets us generate the list of commands to
remove all the keys and also tells us which key the "auto" setting
comes from.
As we want the user to update their config we do not provide a way
for this advice to be disabled other than changing the value of
"core.commentChar" or "core.commentString".

As support for this setting was deprecated in the last commit print a
warning (or die when WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES is enabled) if it is set.
Avoid bombarding the user with warnings by only printing it (a) when
running commands that call "git commit" and (b) only once per command.
Some scaffolding is added to repo_read_config() to allow it to
detect deprecated config settings and warn about them. As both
"core.commentChar" and "core.commentString" set the comment
character we record which one of them is used and tailor the
warning message appropriately.
Note the odd combination of die_message() followed by die(NULL)
is to allow the next commit to insert a call to advise() in the middle.

When "core.commentString" is set to "auto" then "git commit" will
automatically select the comment character ensuring that it is not the
first character on any of the lines in the commit message. This was
introduced by commit 84c9dc2c5a2 (commit: allow core.commentChar=auto
for character auto selection, 2014-05-17). The motivation seems to be
to avoid commenting out lines from the existing message when amending
a commit that was created with a message from a file.
Unfortunately this feature does not work with:
* commit message templates that contain comments.
* prepare-commit-msg hooks that introduce comments.
* "git commit --cleanup=strip --edit -F <file>" which means that it
is incompatible with
- the "fixup" and "squash" commands of "git rebase -i" as the
comments added by those commands are then treated as part of
the commit message.
- the conflict comments added to the commit message by "git
cherry-pick", "git rebase" etc. as these comments are then
treated as part of the commit message.
It is also ignored by "git notes" when amending a note.
The issues with comments coming from a template, hook or file are a
consequence of the design of this feature and are therefore hard to
fix.
As the costs of this feature outweigh the benefits, deprecate it and
remove it in Git 3.0. If someone comes up with some patches that fix
all the issues in a maintainable way then I'd be happy to see this
change reverted.
The next commits will add a warning and some advice for users on how
they can update their config settings.

Every once in a while, users report that editing the commit summaries
in the todo list does not get reflected in the rebase operation,
suggesting that users are (a) only using one-line commit messages, and
(b) not understanding that the commit summaries are merely helpful
comments to help them find the right hashes.
It may be difficult to correct users' poor commit messages, but we can
at least try to make it clearer that the commit summaries are not
directives of some sort by inserting a comment character. Hopefully
that leads to them looking a little further and noticing the hints at
the bottom to use 'reword' or 'edit' directives.
Yes, this change may look funny at first since it hardcodes '#' rather
than using comment_line_str. However:
* comment_line_str exists to allow disambiguation between lines in
a commit message and lines that are instructions to users editing
the commit message. No such disambiguation is needed for these
comments that occur on the same line after existing directives
* the exact "comment" character(s) on regular pick lines used aren't
actually important; I could have used anything, including completely
random variable length text for each line and it'd work because we
ignore everything after 'pick' and the hash.
* The whole point of this change is to signal to users that they
should NOT be editing any part of the line after the hash (and if
they do so, their edits will be ignored), while the whole point of
comment_line_str is to allow highly flexible editing. So making
it more general by using comment_line_str actually feels
counterproductive.
* The character for merge directives absolutely must be '#'; that
has been deeply hardcoded for a long time (see below), and will
break if some other comment character is used instead. In a
desire to have pick and merge directives be similar, I use the
same comment character for both.
* Perhaps merge directives could be fixed to not be inflexible about
the comment character used, if someone feels highly motivated, but
I think that should be done in a separate follow-on patch.
Here are (some of?) the locations where '#' has already been hardcoded
for a long time for merges:
1) In check_label_or_ref_arg():
case TODO_LABEL:
/*
* '#' is not a valid label as the merge command uses it to
* separate merge parents from the commit subject.
*/
2) In do_merge():
/*
* For octopus merges, the arg starts with the list of revisions to be
* merged. The list is optionally followed by '#' and the oneline.
*/
merge_arg_len = oneline_offset = arg_len;
for (p = arg; p - arg < arg_len; p += strspn(p, " \t\n")) {
if (!*p)
break;
if (*p == '#' && (!p[1] || isspace(p[1]))) {
3) In label_oid():
if ((buf->len == the_hash_algo->hexsz &&
!get_oid_hex(label, &dummy)) ||
(buf->len == 1 && *label == '#') ||
hashmap_get_from_hash(&state->labels,
strihash(label), label)) {
/*
* If the label already exists, or if the label is a
* valid full OID, or the label is a '#' (which we use
* as a separator between merge heads and oneline), we
* append a dash and a number to make it unique.

When rebase rewords a commit it picks the commit and then runs "git
commit --amend" to reword it. When the commit is picked the sequencer
tries to reuse existing commits by fast-forwarding if the parents are
unchanged. Rewording an empty commit that has been fast-forwarded fails
because "git commit --amend" is called without "--allow-empty". This
happens because when a commit is fast-forwarded the logic that checks
whether we should pass "--allow-empty" is skipped. Fix this by always
passing "--allow-empty" when rewording a commit. This is safe because we
are amending a commit that has already been picked so if it had become
empty when it was picked we'd have already returned an error.
As "git commit" will happily create empty merge commits without
"--allow-empty" we do not need to pass that flag when rewording merge
commits.

Two of our tests in t3404 use indented HERE docs where leading tabs on

and we try to fix this up by using sed(1) to replace leading tabs in the
actual output, as well. But macOS 10.15 uses an oldish version of sed(1)
that has BSD lineage, which does not understand "\t", and thus we fail
to strip those leading tabs and fail the test.
Address this issue by using `q_to_tab` such that we do not have to strip
leading tabs from the actual output.

The exit code of the preceding command in a pipe is disregarded. So
if that preceding command is a Git command that fails, the test would
not fail. Instead, by saving the output of that Git command to a file,

command fails. This particular patch focuses on all `git show` and

When interactively rebasing merge commits, the commit message is parsed to
extract a probably meaningful label name. For instance if the merge commit
is “Merge branch 'feature0'”, then the rebase script will have thes lines:
```
label feature0
merge -C $sha feature0 # “Merge branch 'feature0'
```
This heuristic fails in the case of octopus merges or when the merge commit
message is actually unrelated to the parent commits.
An example that combines both is:
```
*---. 967bfa4 (HEAD -> integration) Integration
|\ \ \
| | | * 2135be1 (feature2, feat2) Feature 2
| |_|/
|/| |
| | * c88b01a Feature 1
| |/
|/|
| * 75f3139 (feat0) Feature 0
|/
* 25c86d0 (main) Initial commit
```
yields the labels Integration, Integration-2 and Integration-3.
Fix this by using a branch name for each merge commit's parent that is the
tip of at least one branch, and falling back to a label derived from the
merge commit message otherwise.
In the example above, the labels become feat0, Integration and feature2.

The only todo commands that accept a merge commit are "merge" and
"reset". All the other commands like "pick" or "reword" fail when they
try to pick a a merge commit and print the message
error: commit abc123 is a merge but no -m option was given.
followed by a hint about the command being rescheduled. This message is
designed to help the user when they cherry-pick a merge and forget to
pass "-m". For users who are rebasing the message is confusing as there
is no way for rebase to cherry-pick the merge.
Improve the user experience by detecting the error and printing some
advice on how to fix it when the todo list is parsed rather than waiting
for the "pick" command to fail. The advice recommends "merge" rather
than "exec git cherry-pick -m ..." on the assumption that cherry-picking
merges is relatively rare and it is more likely that the user chose
"pick" by a mistake.
It would be possible to support cherry-picking merges by allowing the
user to pass "-m" to "pick" commands but that adds complexity to do
something that can already be achieved with
exec git cherry-pick -m1 abc123

Some of our tests manually create, update or delete references by

git-update-ref(1) would otherwise reject a reference update.
While at it, refactor some of the tests to schedule the cleanup command
via `test_when_finished` before modifying the repository.

They are equivalents and the former still exists, so as long as the
only change this commit makes are to rewrite test_i18ngrep to

callers of test_i18ngrep remaining in the tree, or when merged to

xargs perl -p -i -e 's/test_i18ngrep /test_grep /'
and a good way to sanity check the result yourself is to run the

contents with the result of applying this patch to the same commit.

so here's an explanation from Phillip:
The purpose of the test is to ensure that
(i) There are no uncommitted changes when the editor runs. i.e., we
commit without running the editor and then reword by amending
that commit. This ensures that we have the same user experience
whether or not the commit was fast-forwarded [1].
(ii) That the todo list is re-read after the commit has been reworded.
This is to allow the user to update the todo list while the rebase
is paused for editing the commit message.

When rebasing commands are moved from the todo list in "git-rebase-todo"
to the "done" file (which is used by "git status" to show the recently
executed commands) just before they are executed. This means that if a
command fails because it would overwrite an untracked file it has to be
added back into the todo list before the rebase stops for the user to
fix the problem.
Unfortunately when a failed command is added back into the todo list the
command preceding it is erroneously appended to the "done" file. This
means that when rebase stops after "pick B" fails the "done" file
contains
pick A
pick B
pick A
instead of
pick A
pick B
This happens because save_todo() updates the "done" file with the
previous command whenever "git-rebase-todo" is updated. When we add the
failed pick back into "git-rebase-todo" we do not want to update
"done". Fix this by adding a "reschedule" parameter to save_todo() which
prevents the "done" file from being updated when adding a failed command
back into the "git-rebase-todo" file. A couple of the existing tests are
modified to improve their coverage as none of them trigger this bug or
check the "done" file.

If a commit cannot be picked because it would overwrite an untracked
file then "git rebase --continue" should refuse to commit any staged
changes as the commit was not picked. This is implemented by refusing to
commit if the message file is missing. The message file is chosen for
this check because it is only written when "git rebase" stops for the
user to resolve merge conflicts.
Existing commands that refuse to commit staged changes when continuing
such as a failed "exec" rely on checking for the absence of the author
script in run_git_commit(). This prevents the staged changes from being
committed but prints
error: could not open '.git/rebase-merge/author-script' for
reading
before the message about not being able to commit. This is confusing to
users and so checking for the message file instead improves the user
experience. The existing test for refusing to commit after a failed exec
is updated to check that we do not print the error message about a
missing author script anymore.

git rebase keeps a list that maps the OID of each commit before it was
rebased to the OID of the equivalent commit after the rebase. This list
is used to drive the "post-rewrite" hook that is called at the end of a
successful rebase. When a rebase stops for the user to resolve merge
conflicts the OID of the commit being picked is written to
".git/rebase-merge/stopped-sha". Then when the rebase is continued that
OID is added to the list of rewritten commits. Unfortunately if a commit
cannot be picked because it would overwrite an untracked file we still
write the "stopped-sha1" file. This means that when the rebase is
continued the commit is added into the list of rewritten commits even
though it has not been picked yet.
Fix this by not calling error_with_patch() for failed commands. The pick
has failed so there is nothing to commit and therefore we do not want to
set up the state files for committing staged changes when the rebase
continues. This change means we no-longer write a patch for the failed
command or display the error message printed by error_with_patch(). As
the command has failed the patch isn't really useful and in any case the
user can inspect the commit associated with the failed command by
inspecting REBASE_HEAD. Unless the user has disabled it we already print
an advice message that is more helpful than the message from
error_with_patch() which the user will still see. Even if the advice is
disabled the user will see the messages from the merge machinery
detailing the problem.
The code to add a failed command back into the todo list is duplicated
between pick_one_commit() and the loop in pick_commits(). Both sites
print advice about the command being rescheduled, decrement the current
item and save the todo list. To avoid duplicating this code
pick_one_commit() is modified to set a flag to indicate that the command
should be rescheduled in the main loop. This simplifies things as only
the remaining copy of the code needs to be modified to set REBASE_HEAD
rather than calling error_with_patch().

Before the todo list is edited it is rewritten to shorten the OIDs of
the commits being picked and to append advice about editing the list.
The exact advice depends on whether the todo list is being edited for
the first time or not. After the todo list has been edited it is
rewritten to lengthen the OIDs of the commits being picked and to remove
the advice. If the edited list cannot be parsed then this last step is
skipped.
Prior to db81e50724 (rebase-interactive: use todo_list_write_to_file()
in edit_todo_list(), 2019-03-05) if the existing todo list could not be
parsed then the initial rewrite was skipped as well. This had the
unfortunate consequence that if the list could not be parsed after the
initial edit the advice given to the user was wrong when they re-edited
the list. This change relied on todo_list_parse_insn_buffer() returning
the whole todo list even when it cannot be parsed. Unfortunately if the
list starts with a "fixup" command then it will be truncated and the
remaining lines are lost. Fix this by continuing to parse after an
initial "fixup" commit as we do when we see any other invalid line.

Fixes to code that parses the todo file used in "rebase -i".

rebase -i: fix parsing of "fixup -C<commit>"
rebase -i: match whole word in is_command()

When matching an unabbreviated command is_command() only does a prefix
match which means it parses "pickled" as TODO_PICK. parse_insn_line()
does error out because is_command() only advances as far as the end of
"pick" so it looks like the command name is not followed by a space but
the error message is "missing arguments for pick" rather than telling
the user that the "pickled" is not a valid command.
Fix this by ensuring the match is follow by whitespace or the end of the
string as we already do for abbreviated commands. The (*bol = p) at the
end of the condition is a bit cute for my taste but I decided to leave
it be for now. Rather than add new tests the existing tests for bad
commands are adapted to use a bad command name that triggers the prefix
matching bug.

Check that the argument to the "label" and "update-ref" commands is a
valid refname when the todo list is parsed rather than waiting until the
command is executed. This means that the user can deal with any errors
at the beginning of the rebase rather than having it stop halfway
through due to a typo in a label name. The "update-ref" command is
changed to reject single level refs as it is all to easy to type
"update-ref branch" which is incorrect rather than "update-ref
refs/heads/branch"
Note that it is not straight forward to check the arguments to "reset"
and "merge" commands as they may be any revision, not just a refname and
we do not have an equivalent of check_refname_format() for revisions.

In b3b1a21d1a5 (sequencer: rewrite update-refs as user edits todo list,
2022-07-19), the 'todo_list_filter_update_refs()' step was added to handle
the removal of 'update-ref' lines from a 'rebase-todo'. Specifically, it
removes potential ref updates from the "update refs state" if a ref does not
have a corresponding 'update-ref' line.
However, because 'write_update_refs_state()' will not update the state if
the 'refs_to_oids' list was empty, removing *all* 'update-ref' lines will
result in the state remaining unchanged from how it was initialized (with
all refs' "after" OID being null). Then, when the ref update is applied, all
refs will be updated to null and consequently deleted.
To fix this, delete the 'update-refs' state file when 'refs_to_oids' is
empty. Additionally, add a tests covering "all update-ref lines removed"
cases.

The CodingGuidelines says we should avoid \{m,n\} in BRE usage.
And their usages in our code base is limited, and subjectively
hard to read.
Replace them with ERE.
Except for "0\{40\}" which would be changed to "$ZERO_OID",

When the user runs 'git rebase -i --update-refs', the end message still
says only
Successfully rebased and updated <HEAD-ref>.
Update the sequencer to collect the successful (and unsuccessful) ref
updates due to the --update-refs option, so the end message now says
Successfully rebased and updated <HEAD-ref>.
Updated the following refs with --update-refs:
refs/heads/first
refs/heads/third
Failed to update the following refs with --update-refs:
refs/heads/second
To test this output, we need to be very careful to format the expected
error to drop the leading tab characters. Also, we need to be aware that
the verbose output from 'git rebase' is writing progress lines which
don't use traditional newlines but clear the line after every progress
item is complete. When opening the error file in an editor, these lines
are visible, but when looking at the diff in a terminal those lines
disappear because of the characters that delete the previous characters.
Use 'sed' to clear those progress lines and clear the tabs so we can get
an exact match on our expected output.

An interactive rebase provides opportunities for the user to edit the
todo list. The --update-refs option initializes the list with some
'update-ref <ref>' steps, but the user could add these manually.
Further, the user could add or remove these steps during pauses in the
interactive rebase.
Add a new method, todo_list_filter_update_refs(), that scans a todo_list
and compares it to the stored update-refs file. There are two actions
that can happen at this point:
1. If a '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file does not
have a matching 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list _and_ the
<after> value is the null OID, then remove that triple. Here, the
user removed the 'update-ref <ref>' command before it was executed,
since if it was executed then the <after> value would store the
commit at that position.
2. If a 'update-ref <ref>' command in the todo-list does not have a
matching '<ref>/<before>/<after>' triple in the update-refs file,
then insert a new one. Store the <before> value to be the current
OID pointed at by <ref>. This is handled inside of the
init_update_ref_record() helper method.
We can test that this works by rewriting the todo-list several times in
the course of a rebase. Check that each ref is locked or unlocked for
updates after each todo-list update. We can also verify that the ref
update fails if a concurrent process updates one of the refs after the
rebase process records the "locked" ref location.
To help these tests, add a new 'set_replace_editor' helper that will
replace the todo-list with an exact file.

The previous change introduced the 'git rebase --update-refs' option
which added 'update-ref <ref>' commands to the todo list of an
interactive rebase.
Teach Git to record the HEAD position when reaching these 'update-ref'
commands. The ref/before/after triple is stored in the
$GIT_DIR/rebase-merge/update-refs file. A previous change parsed this
file to avoid having other processes updating the refs in that file
while the rebase is in progress.
Not only do we update the file when the sequencer reaches these
'update-ref' commands, we then update the refs themselves at the end of
the rebase sequence. If the rebase is aborted before this final step,
then the refs are not updated. The 'before' value is used to ensure that
we do not accidentally obliterate a ref that was updated concurrently
(say, by an older version of Git or a third-party tool).
Now that the 'git rebase --update-refs' command is implemented to write
to the update-refs file, we can remove the fake construction of the
update-refs file from a test in t2407-worktree-heads.sh.

When working on a large feature, it can be helpful to break that feature
into multiple smaller parts that become reviewed in sequence. During
development or during review, a change to one part of the feature could
affect multiple of these parts. An interactive rebase can help adjust
the multi-part "story" of the branch.
However, if there are branches tracking the different parts of the
feature, then rebasing the entire list of commits can create commits not
reachable from those "sub branches". It can take a manual step to update
those branches.
Add a new --update-refs option to 'git rebase -i' that adds 'update-ref
<ref>' steps to the todo file whenever a commit that is being rebased is
decorated with that <ref>. At the very end, the rebase process updates
all of the listed refs to the values stored during the rebase operation.
Be sure to iterate after any squashing or fixups are placed. Update the
branch only after those squashes and fixups are complete. This allows a
--fixup commit at the tip of the feature to apply correctly to the sub
branch, even if it is fixing up the most-recent commit in that part.
This change update the documentation and builtin to accept the
--update-refs option as well as updating the todo file with the
'update-ref' commands. Tests are added to ensure that these todo
commands are added in the correct locations.
This change does _not_ include the actual behavior of tracking the
updated refs and writing the new ref values at the end of the rebase
process. That is deferred to a later change.

Change tests that used a "mkdir -p .git/hooks && write_script" pattern
to use the new "test_hook" helper instead. The new helper does not
create the .git/hooks directory, rather we assume that the default
template will do so for us.
An upcoming series[1] will extend "test_hook" to operate in a
"--template=" mode, but for now assuming that we have a .git/hooks
already is a safe assumption. If that assumption becomes false in the
future we'll only need to change 'test_hook", instead of all of these
callsites.

Failures within `for` and `while` loops can go unnoticed if not detected
and signaled manually since the loop itself does not abort when a
contained command fails, nor will a failure necessarily be detected when
the loop finishes since the loop returns the exit code of the last
command it ran on the final iteration, which may not be the command
which failed. Therefore, detect and signal failures manually within
loops using the idiom `|| return 1` (or `|| exit 1` within subshells).

Remove untracked files that are unwanted after they are done being used.
While the set of cases in this patch is certainly far from
comprehensive, it was motivated by some work to see what the fallout
would be if we were to make the removal of untracked files as a side
effect of other commands into an error. Some cases were a bit more
involved than the testcase changes included in this patch, but the ones
included here represent the simple cases. While this patch is not that
important since we are not changing the behavior of those other commands
into an error in the near term, I thought these changes were useful
anyway as an explicit documentation of the intent that these untracked
files are no longer useful.
