Summary: Workspaces are most useful to test different versions (commits) of
the tree within the same repository, but in many cases you want to check out a
specific commit within a workspace.
Make that trivial with a `--revision` option which will be used as the basis
for the new workspace. If no `-r` option is given, then the previous behavior
applies: the workspace is created with a working copy commit created on top of
the current working copy commit's parent.

Before this patch, when updating to a commit that has a file that's
currently an ignored file on disk, jj would crash. After this patch,
we instead leave the conflicting files or directories on disk. We
print a helpful message about how to inspect the differences between
the intended working copy and the actual working copy, and how to
discard the unintended changes.
Closes#976.
I've added a boolean flag to the store to ensure that the migration never runs
more than once after the view gets "op restore"-d. I'll probably reorganize the
branches structure to support non-tracking branches later, but updating the
storage format in a single commit would be too involved.
If jj is downgraded, these "git" remote refs would be exported to the Git repo.
Users might have to remove them manually.
I have used the tree-level conflict format for several weeks without
problem (after the fix in 51b5d168ae). Now - right after the 0.10.0
release - seems like a good time to enable the config by default.
I enabled the config in our default configs in the CLI crate to reduce
impact on tests (compared to changing the default in `settings.rs`).
`jj split` with no arguments operates interactively, but I am nonetheless constantly running `jj split -i` because I expect an `--interactive` flag to exist for consistency.
However, `jj split <paths>` before this commit always operates non-interactively, so this commit has the nice practical effect that you can restrict your interactive splitting to a certain set of paths.
This adds a new `revset-aliases.immutable_heads()s` config for
defining the set of immutable commits. The set is defined as the
configured revset, as well as its ancestors, and the root commit
commit (even if the configured set is empty).
This patch also adds enforcement of the config where we already had
checks preventing rewrite of the root commit. The working-copy commit
is implicitly assumed to be writable in most cases. Specifically, we
won't prevent amending the working copy even if the user includes it
in the config but we do prevent `jj edit @` in that case. That seems
good enough to me. Maybe we should emit a warning when the working
copy is in the set of immutable commits.
Maybe we should add support for something more like [Mercurial's
phases](https://wiki.mercurial-scm.org/Phases), which is propagated on
push and pull. There's already some affordance for that in the view
object's `public_heads` field. However, this is simpler, especially
since we can't propagate the phase to Git remotes, and seems like a
good start. Also, it lets you say that commits authored by other users
are immutable, for example.
For now, the functionality is in the CLI library. I'm not sure if we
want to move it into the library crate. I'm leaning towards letting
library users do whatever they want without being restricted by
immutable commits. I do think we should move the functionality into a
future `ui-lib` or `ui-util` crate. That crate would have most of the
functionality in the current `cli_util` module (but in a
non-CLI-specific form).
I think the feature is requested by enough users that we should
include it by default, also for people who install from source (we
include it in the `packaging` feature already).
It increases the size of the binary from 16.5 MiB to 17.8 MiB. I
suspect we'd see some of that increase in size soon anyway, as I'm
probably going to use Tokio for making async backend requests.
Since e7e49527ef "git: ensure that remote branches never diverge", the last
known "refs/remotes" ref should be synced with the corresponding remote branch.
So we can always trust the branch@remote expression. We don't need "refs/tags"
lookup either since tags should have been imported by git::import_refs().
FWIW, I'm thinking of reorganizing view.git_refs() map as per-remote views.
It would be nice if we can get rid of revsets and template keywords exposing
low-level Git ref primitives.
This is a naive implementation, which cannot deal with multiple children
or parents stemming from merges.
Note: I gave each command separate a separate argument struct
for extensibility.
Fixes#878
Suppose "x::y" is the operator that defaults to "root()::visible_heads()"
respectively, "::" is identical to "all()". Since we've just changed the
behavior of "..y", ".." is now "root()..visible_heads()" meaning "~root()".
This patch also extracts format_detailed_signature() function to deduplicate
the "show" template bits.
The added placeholder templates aren't labeled as "empty". If needed, I think
the whole template can be labeled as "empty" (or "empty_commit") just like
"working_copy".
Closes#2112
This is what I proposed in #2095. @ is now an operator to concatenate symbols.
Unlike the other operators, lhs/rhs of @ is not a target of alias substitution.
'x' in 'x@y' doesn't look like a named variable, though it's technically
possible to allow definition of an alias expanded to a symbol of specific remote
or vice versa. This will probably apply to the kind:pattern syntax, where
aliases are expanded due to the current implementation restriction. I've added
a TODO comment about that.
The way `jj git push` without arguments chooses branches pointing to
either `@` or `@-` is unusual and difficult to explain. Now that we
have `-r`, we could instead default it to `-r '@-::@'`. However, I
think it seems likely that users will want to push all local branches
leading up to `@` from the closest remote branch. That's typically
what I want. This patch changes the default to do that.
We resolve file paths into repo-relative paths while parsing the
revset expression, so I think it's consistent to also resolve which
workspace "@" refers to while parsing it. That means we won't need the
workspace context both while parsing and while resolving symbols.
In order to break things like `author("martinvonz@")` (thanks to @yuja
for catching this), I also changed the parsing of working-copy
expressions so they are not allowed to be
quoted. `author(martinvonz@)` will therefore be an error now. That
seems like a small improvement anyway, since we have recently talked
about making `root` and `[workspace]@` not parsed as other symbols.
Per discussion in #2107, I believe "exact" is preferred.
We can also change the default to exact match, but it doesn't always make
sense. Exact match would be useful for branches(), but not for description().
We could define default per predicate function, but I'm pretty sure I cannot
remember which one is which.
This commit replaces the functions `UserSettings::user_name_placeholder()`` and
`UserSettings::user_email_placeholder()` with `const` `&str`s to emphasize that
the placeholder strings must not be changed to support commits without
names or email addresses made before this change.
The syntax is slightly different from Mercurial. In Mercurial, a pattern must
be quoted like "<kind>:<needle>". In JJ, <kind> is a separate parsing node, and
it must not appear in a quoted string. This allows us to report unknown prefix
as an error.
There's another subtle behavior difference. In Mercurial, branch(unknown) is
an error, whereas our branches(literal:unknown) is resolved to an empty set.
I think erroring out doesn't make sense for JJ since branches() by default
performs substring matching, so its behavior is more like a filter.
The parser abuses DAG range syntax for now. It can be rewritten once we remove
the deprecated x:y range syntax.
One use case for `jj split` is when creating a new commit from some of
the changes in the working copy. If there's no description on the
working-copy commit in that case, it seems better to not ask the user
to provide one when they're splitting the commit either.
I've extracted the `builtin_log_root` template for users to customize the
default templates without fully overriding them, for example I would remove
the change_id/commit_id for myself - and we discussed in Discord that leaving
those makes sense for the user to be reminded/teached that the root commit has
a change id made from z's.
Similar to other boolean flags, such as "working_copy" or "empty".
We could test something like
`"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000".contains(commit_id)`
like I did for myself, but first of all this is ugly, and secondly the root
commit id is not guaranteed to be 40 zeroes as custom backend implementations
could have some other root.
That is, jj will use ui.default_description as a starting point when
user is about to describe an empty change.
I think it might be confusing to do this with -m / --stdin (violates
WYSIWYG), so I'm only doing this when jj invokes an editor.
Also, this could evolve into a proper template in the future instead of
just plain text, to allow inheriting from parent change(s), for example.
Partially addresses #1354.
