| * Documentation: merge: use MERGE_HEAD to refer to the remote branchJonathan Nieder2010-01-241-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 57bddb11 (Documentation/git-merge: reword references to "remote" and "pull", 2010-01-07) fixed the manual to drop the assumption that the other branch being merged is from a remote repository. Unfortunately, in a few places, to do so it introduced the antecedentless phrase "their versions". Worse, in passages like the following, 'they' is playing two roles. | highlighting changes from both the HEAD and their versions. | | * Look at the diffs on their own. 'git log --merge -p <path>' Using HEAD and MERGE_HEAD nicely assigns terminology to "our" and "their" sides. It also provides the reader with practice using names that git will recognize on the command line.

| * Documentation: simplify How Merge WorksJonathan Nieder2010-01-241-36/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The user most likely does not care about the exact order of operations because he cannot see it happening anyway. Instead, try to explain what it means to merge two commits into a single tree. While at it: - Change the heading to TRUE MERGE. The entire manual page is about how merges work. - Document MERGE_HEAD. It is a useful feature, since it makes the parents of the intended merge commit easier to refer to. - Do not assume commits named on the 'git merge' command line come from another repository. For simplicity, the discussion of conflicts still does assume that there is only one and it is a branch head. - Do not start list items with `code`. Otherwise, a toolchain bug produces a line break in the generated nroff, resulting in odd extra space.

| * Documentation: emphasize when git merge terminates earlyJonathan Nieder2010-01-241-10/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A merge-based operation in git can fail in two ways: one that stops before touching anything, or one that goes ahead and results in conflicts. As the 'git merge' manual explains: | A merge is always between the current `HEAD` and one or more | commits (usually, branch head or tag), and the index file must | match the tree of `HEAD` commit (i.e. the contents of the last commit) | when it starts out. Unfortunately, the placement of this sentence makes it easy to skip over, and its formulation leaves the important point, that any other attempted merge will be gracefully aborted, unspoken. So give this point its own section and expand upon it. Probably this could be simplified somewhat: after all, a change registered in the index is just a special kind of local uncommited change, so the second added paragraph is only a special case of the first. It seemed more helpful to be explicit here. Inspired by <http://gitster.livejournal.com/25801.html>.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'merge' manual suggests 'reset' to cancel a merge at the end of the Merge Strategies list.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For very large projects it is useful to be able to clone a subset of the upstream SVN repo's branches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In certain situations it may be necessary to manually remap an svn repostitory UUID. For example: o--- [git-svn clone] / [origin svn repo] \ o--- [svnsync clone] Imagine that only "git-svn clone" and "svnsync clone" are made available to external users. Furthur, "git-svn clone" contains only trunk, and for reasons unknown, "svnsync clone" is missing the revision properties that normally provide the origin svn repo's UUID. A git user who has cloned the "git-svn clone" repo now wishes to use git-svn to pull in the missing branches from the "synsync clone" repo. In order for git-svn to get the history correct for those branches, it needs to know the origin svn repo's UUID. Hence rewriteUUID.

The standard answer they are given is to run "git diff --name-only | xargs git checkout MERGE_HEAD --" in such a case. This is to accept automerge results for the paths that are fully resolved automatically, while taking their version of the file in full for paths that have conflicts. This is problematic on two counts. One is that this is not exactly what these people want. It discards all changes they did on their branch for any paths that conflicted. They usually want to salvage as much automerge result as possible in a conflicted file, and want to take the upstream change only in the conflicted part. This patch teaches two new modes of operation to the lowest-lever merge machinery, xdl_merge(). Instead of leaving the conflicted lines from both sides enclosed in <<<, ===, and >>> markers, the conflicts are resolved favouring our side or their side of changes. A larger problem is that this tends to encourage a bad workflow by allowing people to record such a mixed up half-merged result as a full commit without auditing. This commit does not tackle this issue at all. In git, we usually give long enough rope to users with strange wishes as long as the risky features are not enabled by default, and this is such a risky feature.

They all used to provide rough, and inconsistant error messages. A new variable advice.resolveconflict is introduced, and allows more verbose messages, pointing the user to the appropriate solution. For commit, the error message used to look like this: $ git commit foo.txt: needs merge foo.txt: unmerged (c34a92682e0394bc0d6f4d4a67a8e2d32395c169) foo.txt: unmerged (3afcd75de8de0bb5076942fcb17446be50451030) foo.txt: unmerged (c9785d77b76dfe4fb038bf927ee518f6ae45ede4) error: Error building trees The "need merge" line is given by refresh_cache. We add the IN_PORCELAIN option to make the output more consistant with the other porcelain commands, and catch the error in return, to stop with a clean error message. The next lines were displayed by a call to cache_tree_update(), which is not reached anymore if we noticed the conflict. The new output looks like: U foo.txt fatal: 'commit' is not possible because you have unmerged files. Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>' as appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit, or use 'git commit -a'. Pull is slightly modified to abort immediately if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD exists instead of waiting for merge to complain. The behavior of merge and the test-case are slightly modified to reflect the usual flow: start with conflicts, fix them, and afterwards get rid of MERGE_HEAD, with different error messages at each stage.
