* vimdiff: add tool documentationFernando Ramos2022-04-031-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running 'git {merge,diff}tool --tool-help' now also prints usage information about the vimdiff tool (and its variants) instead of just its name. Two new functions ('diff_cmd_help()' and 'merge_cmd_help()') have been added to the set of functions that each merge tool (ie. scripts found inside "mergetools/") can overwrite to provided tool specific information. Right now, only 'mergetools/vimdiff' implements these functions, but other tools are encouraged to do so in the future, specially if they take configuration options not explained anywhere else (as it is the case with the 'vimdiff' tool and the new 'layout' option) Note that the function 'show_tool_names', used in the implementation of 'git mergetool --tool-help', is also used in Documentation/Makefile to generate the list of allowed values for the configuration variables '{diff,merge}.{gui,}tool'. Adjust the rule so its output is an Asciidoc "description list" instead of a plain list, with the tool name as the item and the newly added tool description as the description. In addition, a section has been added to "Documentation/git-mergetool.txt" to explain the new "layout" configuration option with examples.

| * mergetool: add per-tool support and overrides for the hideResolved flagSeth House2021-02-091-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a per-tool override flag so that users may enable the flag for one tool and disable it for another by setting `mergetool.<tool>.hideResolved` to `false`. In addition, the author or maintainer of a mergetool may optionally override the default `hideResolved` value for that mergetool. If the `mergetools/<tool>` shell script contains a `hide_resolved_enabled` function it will be called when the mergetool is invoked and the return value will be used as the default for the `hideResolved` flag. hide_resolved_enabled () { return 1 } Disabling may be desirable if the mergetool wants or needs access to the original, unmodified 'LOCAL' and 'REMOTE' versions of the conflicted file. For example: - A tool may use a custom conflict resolution algorithm and prefer to ignore the results of Git's conflict resolution. - A tool may want to visually compare/constrast the version of the file from before the merge (saved to 'LOCAL', 'REMOTE', and 'BASE') with Git's conflict resolution results (saved to 'MERGED').

| * mergetool: break setup_tool out into separate initialization functionSeth House2021-02-091-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is preparation for the following commit where we need to source the mergetool shell script to look for overrides before `run_merge_tool` is called. Previously `run_merge_tool` both sourced that script and invoked the mergetool. In the case of the following commit, we need the result of the `hide_resolved` override, if present, before we actually run `run_merge_tool`. The new `initialize_merge_tool` wrapper is exposed and documented as a public interface for consistency with the existing `run_merge_tool` which is also public. Although `setup_tool` could instead be exposed directly, the related `setup_user_tool` would probably also want to be elevated to match and this felt the cleanest to me.

In function 'show_tool_names' in git-mergetool--lib.sh, we loop over the supported mergetools and their variants and accumulate them in the variable 'variants', separating them with a literal '\n'. The code then uses 'echo $variants' to turn these '\n' into newlines, but this behaviour is not portable, it just happens to work in some shells, like dash(1)'s 'echo' builtin. For shells in which 'echo' does not turn '\n' into newlines, the end result is that the only tools that are shown are the existing variants (except the last variant alphabetically), since the variants are separated by actual newlines in '$variants' because of the several 'echo' calls in mergetools/{bc,vimdiff}::list_tool_variants. Fix this bug by embedding an actual line feed into `variants` in show_tool_names(). While at it, replace `sort | uniq` by `sort -u`. To prevent future regressions, add a simple test that checks that a few known tools are correctly shown (let's avoid counting the total number of tools to lessen the maintenance burden when new tools are added or if '--tool-help' learns additional logic, like hiding tools depending on the current platform).

* | mergetool: avoid letting `list_tool_variants` break user-defined setupsJohannes Schindelin2020-11-111-0/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 83bbf9b92ea8 (mergetool--lib: improve support for vimdiff-style tool variants, 2020-07-29), we introduced a `list_tool_variants` function in the spirit of Postel's Law: be lenient in what you accept as input. In this particular instance, we wanted to allow not only `bc` but also `bc3` as name for the Beyond Compare tool. However, what this patch overlooked is that it is totally allowed for users to override the defaults in `mergetools/`. But now that we strip off trailing digits, the name that the user gave the tool might not actually be in the list produced by `list_tool_variants`. So let's do the same as for the `diff_cmd` and the `merge_cmd`: override it with the trivial version in case a user-defined setup was detected.

Make git-mergetool also fallback from `merge.guitool` to `merge.tool` if the former is undefined. If git-difftool, when called with `--gui`, were to use `get_configured_mergetool` in a future patch, it would also get the fallback behavior in the following precedence: 1. diff.guitool 2. merge.guitool 3. diff.tool 4. merge.tool The behavior for when difftool or mergetool are called without `--gui` should be identical with or without this patch. Note that the search loop could be written as sections="merge" keys="tool" if diff_mode then sections="diff $sections" fi if gui_mode then keys="guitool $keys" fi merge_tool=$( IFS=' ' for key in $keys do for section in $sections do selected=$(git config $section.$key) if test -n "$selected" then echo "$selected" return fi done done) which would make adding a mode in the future much easier. However, adding a new mode will likely never happen as it is highly discouraged so, as a result, it is written in its current form so that it is more readable for future readers.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before, in `get_configured_merge_tool`, we would test the value of the first argument directly, which corresponded to whether we were using guitool. However, since `$GIT_MERGETOOL_GUI` is available as an environment variable, create the `gui_mode` function which increases the clarify of functions which use it. While we're at it, add a space before `()` in function definitions to fix the style. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * mergetool: use get_merge_tool functionDenton Liu2019-05-131-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In git-mergetool, the logic for getting which merge tool to use is duplicated in git-mergetool--lib, except for the fact that it needs to know whether the tool was guessed or not. Rewrite `get_merge_tool` to return whether or not the tool was guessed through the return code and make git-mergetool call this function instead of duplicating the logic. Note that 1 was chosen to be the return code of when a tool is guessed because it seems like a slightly more abnormal condition than getting a tool that's explicitly specified but this is completely arbitrary. Also, let `$GIT_MERGETOOL_GUI` be set to determine whether or not the guitool will be selected. This change is not completely backwards compatible as there may be external users of git-mergetool--lib. However, only one user, git-diffall[1], was found from searching GitHub and Google, and this tool is superseded by `git difftool --dir-diff` anyway. It seems very unlikely that there exists an external caller that would take into account the return code of `get_merge_tool` as it would always return 0 before this change so this change probably does not affect any external users.

* mergetool: honor mergetool.$tool.trustExitCode for built-in toolsDavid Aguilar2016-11-291-11/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Built-in merge tools contain a hard-coded assumption about whether or not a tool's exit code can be trusted to determine the success or failure of a merge. Tools whose exit codes are not trusted contain calls to check_unchanged() in their merge_cmd() functions. A problem with this is that the trustExitCode configuration is not honored for built-in tools. Teach built-in tools to honor the trustExitCode configuration. Extend run_merge_cmd() so that it is responsible for calling check_unchanged() when a tool's exit code cannot be trusted. Remove check_unchanged() calls from scriptlets since they are no longer responsible for calling it. When no configuration is present, exit_code_trustable() is checked to see whether the exit code should be trusted. The default implementation returns false. Tools whose exit codes can be trusted override exit_code_trustable() to true.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When no diff nor merge tool is specified (config, option), mergetool-lib is supposed to choose a default tool from a set of tools. That set is constructed dynamically depending on the environment (graphical, editor setting) as a space separated string of tool names. 719518f (mergetool--lib: set IFS for difftool and mergetool, 2015-05-20) introduced a newline as IFS which breaks the parsing of the space separated list into items, resulting in a failed search for an available tool.

* remove #!interpreter line from shell librariesjn/scripts-updatesJonathan Nieder2013-11-261-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a shell snippet meant to be sourced by other shell scripts, an opening #! line does more harm than good. The harm: - When the shell library is sourced, the interpreter and options from the #! line are not used. Specifying a particular shell can confuse the reader into thinking it is safe for the shell library to rely on idiosyncrasies of that shell. - Using #! instead of a plain comment drops a helpful visual clue that this is a shell library and not a self-contained script. - Tools such as lintian can use a #! line to tell when an installation script has failed by forgetting to set a script executable. This check does not work if shell libraries also start with a #! line. The good: - Text editors notice the #! line and use it for syntax highlighting if you try to edit the installed scripts (without ".sh" suffix) in place. The use of the #! for file type detection is not needed because Git's shell libraries are meant to be edited in source form (with ".sh" suffix). Replace the opening #! lines with comments. This involves tweaking the test harness's valgrind support to find shell libraries by looking for "# " in the first line instead of "#!" (see v1.7.6-rc3~7, 2011-06-17). Suggested by Russ Allbery through lintian. Thanks to Jeff King and Clemens Buchacher for further analysis. Tested by searching for non-executable scripts with #! line: find . -name .git -prune -o -type f -not -executable | while read file do read line <"$file" case $line in '#!'*) echo "$file" ;; esac done The only remaining scripts found are templates for shell scripts (unimplemented.sh, wrap-for-bin.sh) and sample input used in tests (t/t4034/perl/{pre,post}).

* git-mergetool: remove redundant assignmentJohn Keeping2013-01-251-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | TOOL_MODE is set at the top of git-mergetool.sh so there is no need to set it again in show_tool_help. Removing this lets us re-use show_tool_help in git-difftool.

| * mergetool--lib: Allow custom commands to override built-insDavid Aguilar2012-09-251-2/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow users to override the default commands provided by the mergetools/* scriptlets. Users occasionally run into problems where they expect to be able to override the built-in tool names. The documentation does not explicitly mention that built-ins cannot be overridden, so it's easy to assume that it should work. Lift this restriction so that built-in tools are handled the same way as user-configured tools. Add tests to guarantee this behavior. A nice benefit of this change is that it protects users from having future versions of git trump their custom configuration with a new built-in tool.

This is required for Git for Windows because slashes in command line arguments get mangled with according to these rules: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Posix_path_conversion Signed-off-by: Sebastian Schuberth <sschuberth@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* | mergetool: support --tool-help option like difftool doesJunio C Hamano2012-07-231-1/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | This way we do not have to risk the list of tools going out of sync between the implementation and the documentation. In the same spirit as bf73fc2 (difftool: print list of valid tools with '--tool-help', 2012-03-29), trim the list of merge backends in the documentation. We do not want to have a complete list of valid tools; we only want a list to help people guess what kind of things the tools do to be specified there, and refer them to --tool-help for a complete list.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Individual merge tools are now defined in a mergetools/$tool file which is sourced at runtime. The individual files are installed into $(git --exec-path)/mergetools/.
