On "jj checkout", description of the working-copy commit is empty, and the
working-copy parent provides more information. It might be a bit verbose to
print parent summary on every history rewriting, but I think that's okay.
@joyously found `o` confusing because it's a valid change id prefix. I
don't have much preference, but `●` seems fine. The "ascii",
"ascii-large", and "legacy" graph styles still use "o".
I didn't change `@` since it seems useful to have that match the
symbol used on the CLI. I don't think we want to have users do
something like `jj co ◎-`.
This eliminates ambiguous parsing between "func()" and "expr ()".
I chose "++" as template concatenation operator in case we want to add
bit-wise negate operator. It's also easier to find/replace than "~".
Since there's no easy API to snapshot the stale working copy without releasing
the lock, we have to compare the tree ids after reacquiring the lock. We could
instead manually snapshot and rebase the working-copy commit, but that would
require more copy-paste codes.
Closes#1310
This allows us to use "if(description,)" to test empty description. And
I think this change is unavoidable if we want to add support for commit
template.
I don't think need to write non-UTF8 bytes to our config files. If we
ever do (maybe to test that we give the user a reasonable error
message), we add a custom function for that.
I've preferred "working-copy commit" over "checkout" for a while
because I think it's clearer, but there were lots of places still
using "checkout". I've left "checkout" in places where it refers to
the action of updating the working copy or the working-copy commit.
Otherwise the description set by -m would differ from the one set by editor.
This fixes test_describe() which says "make no changes", but previously "\n"
would be added by the second "jj describe".
As you can see, almost all hashes change in CLI tests. This means in-flight
PRs will need to be rebased to update insta snapshots.
Description text could be normalized by CommitBuilder, but the caller would
have to normalize it beforehand to compare with the current description, so
we would need an explicit function anyway. Another idea is to add a newtype
that represents a normalized description, and make CommitBuilder require it.
Commit::description() will return &Description in place of &str to ensure
that commit.description() == raw_str wouldn't compile.
Git CLI provides --cleanup=<mode> option to switch normalization rules, but
I don't think we'll need such feature.
When a workspace's working-copy commit is updated from another
workspace, the workspace becomes "stale". That means that the working
copy on disk doesn't represent the commit that the repo's view says it
should. In this state, we currently automatically it to the desired
commit next time the user runs any command in the workspace. That can
be undesirable e.g. if the user had a slow build or test run started
in the working copy. It can also be surprising that a checkout happens
when the user ran a seemingly readonly command like `jj status`.
This patch makes most commands instead error out if the working copy
is stale, and adds a `jj workspace update-stale` to update it. The
user can still run commands with `--no-commit-working-copy` in this
state (doing e.g. `jj --no-commit-working-copy rebase -r @ -d @--` is
another way of getting into the stale-working-copy state, by the way).

`wc_commit` seems clearer than `checkout` and not too much longer. I
considered `working_copy` but it was less clear (could be the path to
the working copy, or an instance of `WorkingCopy`). I also considered
`working_copy_commit`, but that seems a bit too long.
In 8ae9540f2c, I made `jj move/squash/unsquash` not abandon the
working copy if it became empty because that would lose any
description associated with it. It turned out that the new behavior
was also confusing because it made it unclear if the working-copy
commit was actually abandoned. Let's roll back that change and instead
ask the user for a combined description when both the source and
destination commits have non-empty descriptions. Not discarding a
non-empty description seems like a good improvement regardless of the
behavior related to working-copy commits. It's also how `hg fold`
behaves (though hg doesn't allow the description to be empty).
If the source commit becomes empty as a result of
`move/squash/unsquash`, we abandon it. However, perhaps we shouldn't
do that if the source commit is a working-copy commit because
working-copy commits are often work-in-progress commits.
The background for this change is that @arxanas had just started a new
change and had set a description on it, and then decided to make some
changes in the working copy that should be in the parent
commit. Running `jj squash` then abandoned the working-copy commit,
resuling in the description getting lost.
It can be confusing that some commits (typically the working copy)
don't have a description. Let's show a placeholder text in such cases.
I chose the format to match the "(no email configured)" message we
already have.
