Jujutsu's branches do not behave like Git branches, which is a major
hurdle for people adopting it from Git. They rather behave like
Mercurial's (hg) bookmarks.
We've had multiple discussions about it in the last ~1.5 years about this rename in the Discord,
where multiple people agreed that this _false_ familiarity does not help anyone. Initially we were
reluctant to do it but overtime, more and more users agreed that `bookmark` was a better for name
the current mechanism. This may be hard break for current `jj branch` users, but it will immensly
help Jujutsu's future, by defining it as our first own term. The `[experimental-moving-branches]`
config option is currently left alone, to force not another large config update for
users, since the last time this happened was when `jj log -T show` was removed, which immediately
resulted in breaking users and introduced soft deprecations.
This name change will also make it easier to introduce Topics (#3402) as _topological branches_
with a easier model.
This was mostly done via LSP, ripgrep and sed and a whole bunch of manual changes either from
me being lazy or thankfully pointed out by reviewers.
For the same reason as the previous commit.
Created and moved stats are printed separately because it's unusual to do both
within one "branch set" invocation.
It's common to create empty working-copy commits while using jj, and
currently the author timestamp for a commit is only set when it is first
created. If you create an empty commit, then don't work on a repo for a
few days, and then start working on a new feature without abandoning the
working-copy commit, the author timestamp will remain as the time the
commit was created rather than being updated to the time that work began
or finished.
This commit changes the behavior so that discardable commits (empty
commits with no description) by the current user have their author
timestamps reset when they are rewritten, meaning that the author
timestamp will become finalized whenever a commit is given a description
or becomes non-empty.
In a repo of mine I wanted to do something like the following to push all of my
leaves to the remote as backup:
jj git push -c 'all:heads(base::) & mine() ~ empty()'
But couldn't, because `jj git push` doesn't handle large revsets, even though
it does handle multiple `-c` arguments, so I had to work out some pipe-to-xargs
command instead.

The follow up diff will make `-c` accept large revsets, so it won't make any
sense to print out the original expression when multiple branches will be
created from it.

This commit adds an optional flag to be able to push commits with an
empty description to a remote git repo. While the default behavior is
ideal we might need to interact with a repo that has an empty commit
description in it. I ran into this issue a few weeks ago pushing commits
from an open source repo to an empty repo and had to go back to using
git for that push as I would not want to rewrite the history which was
many many years long just for that.
This flag allows users an escape hatch for pushing empty descriptions
for commits and they're sure that they want that behavior.
This commit adds the flag to the `git push` command and updates the docs
for the command. It also updates the original test to make sure that the
flag works as intended to reject the commit when not set and to allow
the commit when the flag is set.
Closes#2633
As explained in the commit, our logic is a bit more complicated than
that of `git push --force-with-lease`. This is to match the behavior of
`jj git fetch` and branch conflict resolution rules.
This tests `git push` attempting to create a branch when the branch
already unexpectedly exists on the remote. This should (and does)
fail.
Also changes another test to use `jj_cmd_failure`.
When you use e.g. `git switch` to check out a conflicted commit,
you're going to end up with the `.jjconflicts-*` directories in your
working copy. It's probably not obvious what those mean. This patch
adds a README file to the root tree to try to explain to users what's
going on and how to recover.
The authoritative information about conflicts is stored in the
`jj:trees` commit header. The contents of conflicted commits is only
used for preventing GC. We can therefore add contents to the tree
without much consequence.
It's inconsistent that some warnings have headings and some don't, and it seems
the choice is arbitrary. Let's unify the style. There are two exceptions:
1. continued line following labeled message,
2. "unrecognized response" followed by prompt.
This fixes --change/--branch conflicts by making --change precede --branch. I
don't think this is the most obvious behavior, but it's the easiest workaround.
It could be moved before set_local_branch_target() to not update the local
branch, but it seemed weird that --change is silently ignored. This
inconsistency will be addressed later.
As discussed in #2900, the milliseconds are rarely useful, and it can
be confusing with different timezones because it makes harder to
compare timestamps.
I added an environment variable to control the timestamp in a
cross-platform way. I didn't document because it exists only for tests
(like `JJ_RANDOMNESS_SEED`).
Closes#2900
"-r REVISIONS" here specifies the search space of the branches to push, and
warned if no branches are found in that space. I don't think an empty set
should be an error, but a warning for consistency. The warning message will be
improved by the subsequent patches.
We haven't used custom Git commit headers for two main reasons:
1. I don't want commits created by jj to be different from any other
commits. I don't want Git projects to get annoyed by such commit
and reject them.
2. I've been concerned that tools don't know how to handle such
headers, perhaps even resulting in crashes.
The first argument doesn't apply to commits with conflicts because
such commits would never be accepted by a project whether or not they
use custom commit headers. The second argument is less relevant for
conflicted commits because most tools will be confused by such commits
anyway.
Storing conflict information in commit headers means that we can
transfer them via the regular Git wire protocol. We already include
the tree objects nested inside the root-level tree, so they will also
be transferred.
So, let's start by writing the information redundantly to the commit
header and to the existing storage. That way we can roll it back if we
realize there's a problem with using commit headers.
this greatly speeds up the time to run all tests, at the cost of slightly larger recompile times for individual tests.
this unfortunately adds the requirement that all tests are listed in `runner.rs` for the crate.
to avoid forgetting, i've added a new test that ensures the directory is in sync with the file.
## benchmarks
before this change, recompiling all tests took 32-50 seconds and running a single test took 3.5 seconds:
```
; hyperfine 'touch lib/src/lib.rs && cargo t --test test_working_copy'
Time (mean ± σ): 3.543 s ± 0.168 s [User: 2.597 s, System: 1.262 s]
Range (min … max): 3.400 s … 3.847 s 10 runs
```
after this change, recompiling all tests take 4 seconds:
```
; hyperfine 'touch lib/src/lib.rs ; cargo t --test runner --no-run'
Time (mean ± σ): 4.055 s ± 0.123 s [User: 3.591 s, System: 1.593 s]
Range (min … max): 3.804 s … 4.159 s 10 runs
```
and running a single test takes about the same:
```
; hyperfine 'touch lib/src/lib.rs && cargo t --test runner -- test_working_copy'
Time (mean ± σ): 4.129 s ± 0.120 s [User: 3.636 s, System: 1.593 s]
Range (min … max): 3.933 s … 4.346 s 10 runs
```
about 1.4 seconds of that is the time for the runner, of which .4 is the time for the linker. so
there may be room for further improving the times.
Previously, `jj git push; jj git push` would tell the user that "No
branches point to the specified revisions.". I found this confusing,
even though strictly speaking it is correct (as the default revset only
considers revisions that haven't been pushed to the remote).
Closes#2241
Since "jj git fetch --branch" supports glob patterns, users would expect that
"jj git push --branch glob:.." also works.
The error handling bits are copied from "branch" sub commands. We might want to
extract it to a common helper function, but I haven't figured out a reasonable
boundary point yet.
This will be the option to include non-tracking remote branches. We could add
more fine-grained filtering flags, but I think --all is good enough and easier
to remember.
This patch also updates many of the test outputs to include synchronized remote
branches. I think verbose outputs will help catch future bugs.
We can provide more actionable error message than "not fast-forwardable". If
the push was fast-forwardable, "jj branch track" should be able to merge the
remote branch without conflicts, so the added step would be minimal.
Although this is logically correct, the error message is a bit cryptic. It's
probably better to reject push if non-tracking remote branches exist.
#1136
This means that the commits previously pinned by remote branches are no longer
abandoned. I think that's more correct since "push" is the operation to
propagate local view to remote, and uninteresting commits should have been
locally abandoned.
Since I'm going to make git::push_branches() update the repo view internally,
it should fail fast if the remote name is reserved. Before, the problem was
detected on git::import_refs().
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`).
Apparently, it gets too verbose if the remote history is actively rewritten.
Let's summarize the output for now. The plan is to show the list of moved refs
instead of the full list of abandoned commits.
This will probably help to understand why you've got conflicts after fetching.
Maybe we can also report changed local refs.
I think the stats should be redirected to stderr, but we have many other similar
messages printed to stdout. I'll probably fix them all at once later.
