* mergetool: don't skip modify/remove conflictsMartin von Zweigbergk2011-02-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since bb0a484 (mergetool: Skip autoresolved paths, 2010-08-17), mergetool uses different ways of figuring out the list of files with merge conflicts depending on whether rerere is active. If rerere is active, mergetool will use 'git rerere status' to list the files with remaining conflicts. However, the output from that command does not list conflicts of types that rerere does not handle, such as modify/remove conflicts. Another problem with solely relying on the output from 'git rerere status' is that, for new conflicts that are not yet known to rerere, the output from the command will list the files even after adding them to the index. This means that if the conflicts in some files have been resolved and 'git mergetool' is run again, it will ask the user something like the following for each of those files. file1: file does not need merging Continue merging other unresolved paths (y/n) ? Solve both of these problems by replacing the call to 'git rerere status' with a call to the new 'git rerere remaining' that was introduced in the previous commit.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When mergetool is run without path limiters it loops over each entry in 'git ls-files -u'. This includes autoresolved paths. Teach mergetool to only merge files listed in 'rerere status' when rerere is enabled. There are some subtle but harmless changes in behavior. We now call cd_to_toplevel when no paths are given. We do this because 'rerere status' paths are always relative to the root. This is beneficial for the non-rerere use as well in that mergetool now runs against all unmerged files regardless of the current directory. This also slightly tweaks the output when run without paths to be more readable.

* Teach git mergetool to use custom commands defined at config timeCharles Bailey2008-03-051-2/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently git mergetool is restricted to a set of commands defined in the script. You can subvert the mergetool.<tool>.path to force git mergetool to use a different command, but if you have a command whose invocation syntax does not match one of the current tools then you would have to write a wrapper script for it. This patch adds two git config variable patterns which allow a more flexible choice of merge tool. If you run git mergetool with -t/--tool or the merge.tool config variable set to an unrecognized tool then git mergetool will query the mergetool.<tool>.cmd config variable. If this variable exists, then git mergetool will treat the specified tool as a custom command and will use a shell eval to run the command with the documented shell variables set. mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode can be used to indicate that the exit code of the custom command can be used to determine the success of the merge.
