This basically means that heads in a filtered graph appear in reverse
chronological order. Before, "jj log -r 'tags()'" in linux-stable repo would
look randomly sorted once you ran "jj debug reindex" in it.
With this change, indexing is more like breadth-first search, and BFS is
known to be bad at rendering nice graph (because branches run in parallel.)
However, we have a post process to group topological branches, so we don't
have this problem. For serialization formats like Mercurial's revlog iirc,
BFS leads to bad compression ratio, but our index isn't that kind of data.
Reindexing gets slightly slower, but I think this is negligible.

Another idea is to sort heads chronologically and run DFS-based topological
sorting. It's ad-hoc, but worked surprisingly well for my local repositories.
For repositories with lots of long-running branches, this commit will provide
more predictable result than DFS-based one.
`jj chmod` won't operate on conflicts involving non-files on the
positive sides. However, the error message says "None of the sides of
the conflict are files", which is not correct.
With the new `Merge::iter()`, we can simplify the code a bit by
combining that with `zip`.
I'll simplify the last part of `update_from_content()` next.
Implementing `Iterator` and `FromIterator` on `Merge<T>` provides much
more flexibility than the current `map()`, `try_map()`, etc.
`Merge::from_iter()` wouldn't have a way of failing if it's given an
unexpected (even) number of items. I would be fine with having it
panic, but we can't even usefully do that, because
e.g. `Option::from_iter()` will pass us an iterator ends early if the
input interator ends early. For example,
`Merge::resolved(None).iter().collect()` would call
`Merge::from_iter()` with an empty iterator (first item `None`). So, I
instead created a `MergeBuilder` type implementing `FromIterator`, and
let `MergeBuilder::build()` panic if there were an even number of
items.
I re-implemented some existing `Merge` methods using the new
facilities in this commit. Maybe we should remove some of the methods.
This allows us to reorder commits to be indexed in bulk.
The incremental update optimization is applied only for a single head. This
could be tried for multiple heads, but it's unlikely that every head has
a single new commit for each.
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.
We anyway trim the newlines eventually and this just does that eagerly
so we output the "correct" description back to stdout (on describe for
example, we'd now print the first non empty line).
This is similar to what mut_repo.add_head() does.
I'm going to adjust the visiting order so the bulk-imported history preserves
chronological order. It might be a small adjustment on the current DFS
approach, or new function based on Kahn's algorithm. Either way, it's important
that both "jj git import" and "jj debug reindex" use the same underlying
function.
Empty files can be confusing in diff output. For example:
```
Added regular file file1:
Added regular file file2:
1: foo
```
This commit adds an "(empty)" placeholder instead. Since it's not
colored, and doesn't have line numbers, it will hopefully not be
mistaken for a file with the contents "(empty)".
Almost the entire method deals with `FileType::Normal`, so we can
reduce indentation and repeated matching on the file type by doing it
early and returning in the non-normal-file cases.
For tree-level conflicts, we're eventually not going to have
`ConflictId`. We'd want to make `write_conflict_to_store()` take a
`Merge<Option<TreeValue>>` and return an updated such value. That
would leave very little logic in the function, so let's just inline it
instead.
AFAIK, we can't make HEAD detached in an empty Git repository, so we need
to temporarily switch to the new default branch before checking out.
Fixes#2047
`update_from_content()` already writes file content for each term of
an unresolved merge, so it seems consistent for it to also write the
file content for resolved merges. I think this should simplify further
refactoring for tree-level conflicts and for preserving the executable
bit.
