Merge branch 'nd/fetch-into-shallow'

2013-09-20T19:25:32+00:00

When there is no sufficient overlap between old and new history
during a fetch into a shallow repository, we unnecessarily sent
objects the sending side knows the receiving end has.

* nd/fetch-into-shallow:
  Add testcase for needless objects during a shallow fetch
  list-objects: mark more commits as edges in mark_edges_uninteresting
  list-objects: reduce one argument in mark_edges_uninteresting
  upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to pack-objects
  shallow: add setup_temporary_shallow()
  shallow: only add shallow graft points to new shallow file
  move setup_alternate_shallow and write_shallow_commits to shallow.c

Merge branch 'jl/submodule-mv'

2013-09-09T21:36:15+00:00

"git mv A B" when moving a submodule A does "the right thing",
inclusing relocating its working tree and adjusting the paths in
the .gitmodules file.

* jl/submodule-mv: (53 commits)
  rm: delete .gitmodules entry of submodules removed from the work tree
  mv: update the path entry in .gitmodules for moved submodules
  submodule.c: add .gitmodules staging helper functions
  mv: move submodules using a gitfile
  mv: move submodules together with their work trees
  rm: do not set a variable twice without intermediate reading.

Merge branch 'tr/log-full-diff-keep-true-parents'

2013-09-09T21:33:16+00:00

Output from "git log --full-diff -- " looked strange,
because comparison was done with the previous ancestor that touched
the specified , causing the patches for paths outside the
pathspec to show more than the single commit has changed.

Tweak "git reflog -p" for the same reason using the same mechanism.

shallow: add setup_temporary_shallow()

2013-08-28T18:51:54+00:00

This function is like setup_alternate_shallow() except that it does
not lock $GIT_DIR/shallow.  It is supposed to be used when a program
generates temporary shallow for use by another program, then throw
the shallow file away.

log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting

2013-08-01T17:25:48+00:00

When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log
output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed.
The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents.

This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case:
simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME
to it.  So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the
same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered)
parent.

However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty
spectacular results when comparing the output of

  git log --graph --stat ...
  git log --graph --full-diff --stat ...

(--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like
--parents).

To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a
slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect.  Then use the stored parents
instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths.  The
latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code;
they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been
called for this revision walk.

For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing
to do.

Merge commits are a bit subtle.  Observe that with default
simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision:
either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is
different from all parents and the parent list remains intact.
Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them
as a merge.

So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the
rewrite result on each parent.  Running, e.g., --cc on this in
--full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some
hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side,
because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't
have those changes in the first place).  This triggers --cc showing
these hunks spuriously.

Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show
the diffs wrt. the original parents.

commit.h: drop redundant comment

2013-07-25T23:06:23+00:00

We mention twice that the from_ident field of struct
pretty_print_context is internal.

The first comment was added by 10f2fbf, which prepares the
struct for internal fields, and then the second by a908047,
which actually adds such a field. This was a mistake made
when re-rolling the series on the list; the comment should
have been removed from the latter commit.

convert run_add_interactive to use struct pathspec

2013-07-15T17:56:08+00:00

This passes the pathspec, more or less unmodified, to
git-add--interactive. The command itself does not process pathspec. It
simply passes the pathspec to other builtin commands. So if all those
commands support pathspec, we're good.

Merge branch 'jk/format-patch-from'

2013-07-15T17:28:40+00:00

"git format-patch" learned "--from[=whom]" option, which sets the
"From: " header to the specified person (or the person who runs the
command, if "=whom" part is missing) and move the original author
information to an in-body From: header as necessary.

* jk/format-patch-from:
  teach format-patch to place other authors into in-body "From"
  pretty.c: drop const-ness from pretty_print_context

teach format-patch to place other authors into in-body "From"

2013-07-03T19:11:04+00:00

Format-patch generates emails with the "From" address set to the
author of each patch. If you are going to send the emails, however,
you would want to replace the author identity with yours (if they
are not the same), and bump the author identity to an in-body
header.

Normally this is handled by git-send-email, which does the
transformation before sending out the emails. However, some
workflows may not use send-email (e.g., imap-send, or a custom
script which feeds the mbox to a non-git MUA). They could each
implement this feature themselves, but getting it right is
non-trivial (one must canonicalize the identities by reversing any
RFC2047 encoding or RFC822 quoting of the headers, which has caused
many bugs in send-email over the years).

This patch takes a different approach: it teaches format-patch a
"--from" option which handles the ident check and in-body header
while it is writing out the email.  It's much simpler to do at this
level (because we haven't done any quoting yet), and any workflow
based on format-patch can easily turn it on.
