This change updates the language of `jj edit`'s help message to be
more clear as to the nature of the command. It also adds a
recommendation for a more idiomatic/safer workflow.
I just wanted to remove CommandError from parse_immutable_expression(), which
will be called from the templater, but the new error message looks also better.
Some of them will be called directly from the commit templater which shouldn't
know WorkspaceCommandHelper. All parameters are passed as function arguments
instead of having a nicer wrapper struct. That's because some resources (e.g.
repo and id prefix context) are also used for different purposes, and it seemed
uneasy to introduce high-level abstraction satisfying all the use cases.
Now you can do e.g. `jj squash --from 'foo+::' --into foo` to squash a
whole series into one commit. It doesn't need to be linear; you can
squash a bunch of siblings into another siblings, for example.
Now as default and elided node symbols come from the config, the next logical
step is to use them directly bypassing GraphLog. Note that commands like `jj op
log` and `jj obslog` do not use the elided node symbol at all.
This was proposed by @Brixy in
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/discussions/2882 a while ago. There
seems to be pretty strong consensus that it's a good idea.
I've copied the added test cases from `test_move_command.rs`, just
replacing `move` by `squash`, `--to` by `--into`, and deleting the
test of a no-arg invocation (`jj move` fails, `jj squash` does not -
it defaults to squashing into the parent).
This patch makes `jj squash` us the helper I just extracted from `jj
move`. I had a to add a few small features to it for that.
The `test_squash_command.rs` test changed in a few cases where we do a
partial squash. After this patch, we include the rebased child in the
count of rebased descendants. That seems reasonable and consistent
with partial squash/move further than 1 generation.
This is just a little step towards reusing the helper I just extracted
from `jj move`. I had to update `test_immutable_commits.rs` because it
would otherwise fail because of the merge rather than failing because
of the immutable commit.
I'm soon going to make `jj squash` accept either `-r` or
`--from/--to`, which means `-r` will then be optional. This patch
prepares for that already, since it also simplifies the code a little
(and improves it so we warn if the user does `jj squash -r @
nonexistent`).
This matches what we do for `jj squash`, whether it's a
full or partial move.
I didn't add a test since we're planning to deprecate `jj move`, and
this will soon be tested via the `jj squash` tests.
The `destination` variable we use when creating the operation log may
have been replaced earlier in the code. I think this was a regression
when I moved the setting of the description from `start_transaction()`
to `finish_transaction()` a while ago.
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.
The `amend/unamend` aliases exist for smoothen onboarding for
Git/Mercurial users; I don't think we should recommend that users use
them, so I think it's fine if users override them as they
like. Therefore, I think they belong in the config.
This should address both use cases:
1. If from_relative_path() is directly called, the error says ".." shouldn't
be included in the (normalized) relative path.
2. If parse_fs_path() is used, the error message contains paths relative to
cwd. #3216
There's a caveat: "jj config list -Tname" will concatenate all names in a
single line. That's correct but useless. We might want some option or config
knob to complete missing "\n". This also applies to "log --no-graph".
This serves the role of the formatter in Mercurial, but the provided features
are rather restricted compared to mercurial.formatter. That's because both
implementation language "Rust" and jj's template language are statically typed.
The current implementation works well for simple commands like "config list -T",
but it might be not okay for "branch list -T". If we implement branch templating
by using the generic mechanism, the commit summary part would have to be
evaluated as a separate template:
-T 'branch_name ++ target_commit_summary' (target_commit_summary: Template)
instead of
-T 'branch_name ++ commit_summary(target_commit)' (target_commit: Commit)
where the branch template language is a superset of the commit template
language.
I'm going to add generic templating support for basic value types, and
"jj config list -T" will use CommandHelper::parse_template().
CommandHelper::load_template_aliases() is made private instead.
This will help deduplicate template parsing functions. We don't care about the
cost of config.get_string(), but I don't want to copy the config key to every
caller.
This could be a provided method of the TemplateLanguage trait, but it's
unlikely that this method would have to be customized by implementors. And
I'm going to add thin wrapper method to CommandHelper, so no users would
write language.parse(..) anyway.
I'm going to split commit/operation_templater::parse() into two parts, and
the first half will be Commit/OperationTemplateLanguage::new(..). This patch
also makes CommitTemplateLanguage::wrap_() functions public because extension
methods should be able to return property of these types.

This commit fixes the warnings by making the watchman URL a hyperlink and by
disabling the lint for the jj-cli error. Disabling the link is the right thing
to do because the comment is captured by clap and printed when `jj --help`
runs and any markdown formatting like `<>` is passed through.
The ExternalMergeTool struct has four 24-byte fields plus one bool. It could
be shrunk by dropping Vec/String capacity, but the resulting type would still
be bigger compared to the default Builtin variant.
I considered inlining tx.select_diff(), but that looked a bit cryptic because
the arguments orders are reasonably different. This thin wrapper will help
enforce the common interactive editing behavior.
This constructor has too many arguments enough to introduce a parameter struct,
which would be identical to the CommandHelper type. Let's simply inline it as
there are no external callers.
write!(ui.hint(), ..) error is suppressed because it seemed weird if the
configuration error had io::Error variant. The write error isn't important
anyway.
This moves the config loading closer to CLI args where --tool=<name> option
will be processed. The factory function are proxied through the command helper
so that the base_ignores can be attached there later.
I'm going to make them be loaded by caller, and these newtypes will provide
extra compile-time safety (plus nicer API to be added later.) The error types
will be cleaned up later patches.
This gets rid of the last UserSettings dependency from edit_diff_external().
I'm going to remove it from edit_diff() too, and let callers pass a
preconfigured MergeTool struct instead.
These changes will make it easier to add --tool=<name> argument #2575.
Because the snapshot directory is removed at the end of the function, it doesn't
make sense to enable watchman in it. The max_new_file_size parameter might be
somewhat useful, but it's unlikely that the temporary directory contains
gigantic node_modules tree for example. OTOH, the base_ignores matters since it
may contain common ignore patterns like *~.
This eliminates most of the UserSettings dependencies from this function.
I'm going to add string.len() method which will return a length in bytes. The
number of the UTF-8 code points is useless metrics, and strings here are often
ASCII bytes, so let's simply use byte indices in substr().
If the given index is not at a char boundary, it will be rounded. I considered
making it an error, but that would be annoying. I would want to see something
printed by author.name().substr() even if it contained latin characters.
I've extracted index normalization function which might be used by other string
methods. The remaining part of substr() is trivial, so inlined it.
Before, --tool=:builtin argument was ignored and the tool was loaded from
"ui.diff.tool" option. Since there is no single builtin diff format, :builtin
doesn't make sense here. Maybe we can translate ":<format>" to the internal
diff format instead, but that will also mean "ui.diff.tool" and ".format" can
be merged.
This partially reverts 409356fa5b "merge_tools: enable `:builtin` as default
diff/merge editor."
I'm going to split get_tool_config() to fix "diff --tool=:builtin", and it
doesn't make sense to duplicate get_tool_config_from_args() per backing
get_tool_config() functions.
This make :builtin render conflicts as conflict markers instead of
panicking. To support conflicts properly, we also need to parse the
conflict markers (calling `update_from_content()`) after the user
closes the editor.
A runtime error will be printed inline. This simplifies error handling, and I
think it's better behavior overall. "jj log" won't be terminated just because
"gpg" crashed during signature verification for example. When property
evaluation failed, the error propagates to the closest template expression, and
the error message is printed there. Then, template output continues as long as
the output stream is open.
If we add revset() function for example, dynamic revset evaluation error will be
displayed inline. Static revset expression will still be processed at parsing
phase (to cache the evaluation result), and the error will be reported early.
One caveat: a string argument passed to e.g. .contains(needle) can be a
template, so the evaluation error would be swallowed there.
It was moved to CLI at 42252a2f00 "cli: on `jj init --git-repo=.`, use
relative path to `.git/`." As far as I can tell, .canonicalize() is needed
to calculate relative path, which is now processed differently in
Workspace::init_external_git() and GitBackend::init_external().
This reverts dc074363d1 "no-op: Move external git repo canonicalization into
Workspace::init_git_external." As I said in the PR comment, appending ".git"
is normalization of the user input, which is IMHO more appropriate to be done
in the CLI layer.
The translation from method error to keyword error can go wrong if the context
object had n-ary methods (n > 0), which isn't the case as of now. For
simplicity, arguments error is mapped to "self.<name>(..)" suggestion.
Local variables and "self" could be merged without using extra method, but
we'll need extend_*_candidates() to merge in symbol/function aliases anyway.
This seems more useful if aliases are nested. The innermost error usually
contains the problem, and the outer errors are contexts where aliases are
expanded.
Except for the generic list and template methods. We'll need a bit more
refactoring to migrate List<T> method builders to be compatible with
non-capturing fn() type.
The recovery commit we create when we run into a stale working copy
with a missing operation currently has an empty tree. Our commit
backend at Google creates an index of which files changed in each
commit. That gets really expensive when a commit deletes all files in
the repo, as these recovery commits do. So for our backend, it is much
better to make the recovery commit empty instead. That's what this
patch does.
It almost doesn't matter functionally what tree we use for it since we
don't care much about the current tree when snapshotting the working
copy. It does matter in a few cases, however. One case is for
conflicts. In that case, it's likely better to use the recovery
commit's parent as base tree (as we do by making the recovery commit
empty) than to use an empty tree, as that would guarantee that all
conflicts would be considered resolved. (Side note: perhaps we should
start looking at the current commit's parent instead of looking at the
current commit when snapshotting, but that's a topic for another day.)
When we abandon a working-copy commit, we create a new working-copy
commit on top. This behave is very useful, but it's not obvious. Let's
document it.
Thankfully, 2bbefcc338 (rewrite: default to not simplifying ancestor
merges) means that there are much fewer commands where we need to
document this behavior.
There are two major goals:
* provide typo hints in a similar way to revset
* make methods extensible
The created method table is bound to the 'repo lifetime because of the problem
described in the inline comment. It would be nice if we can build cachable
core method table for<'repo> CommitTemplateLanguage<'repo, '_>, but I couldn't
figure out how.
Add an option to list tracked branches only
This option keeps most of the current `--all` printing logic, but:
- Omits local Git-tracking branches by default (can be extended to
support filtering by remote).
- Skip over the branch altogether if it doesn't contain tracked remotes
- Don't print the untracked_remote_refs at the end
Usage:
`jj branch list -t`
`jj branch list --tracked`
`jj branch list --tracked <branch name>`
I think the user usually wants to abandon only newly empty commits. I
think they should use `jj abandon` if they want to get rid of already
empty commits. By keeping already empty commits, we don't need to
special-case the working copy and merge commits.
This allows us to call alias function with the top-level object.
For convenience, all self.<method>()s are available as keywords. I don't think
we'll want to deprecate them. It would be tedious if we had to specify
-T'self.commit_id()' instead of -Tcommit_id.
If I remember correctly, wrap_fn() was added to help type inference. It no
longer makes sense because the type is coerced by TemplateFunction::new()
and language.wrap_*().
The description of `jj diff` was lost in commit b5e4e670. We later got
a short description for it in b5e4e670. This patch restores the
original description.
This eliminates the separate keywords table. All keywords are resolved through
the pseudo "self" property. Maybe we'll add "self" keyword/variable later.
This is copied from the commit templater. I'm going to extract the "self"
property handling to the core template builder, and build_keyword() methods
will be replaced with that.
The default immutable_heads() includes tags(), which makes sense, but computing
heads(tags()) can be expensive because the tags() set is usually sparse. For
example, "jj bench revset 'heads(tags())'" took 157ms in my linux stable
mirror. We can of course optimize the heads evaluation by using bit set or
segmented index, but the query includes many historical heads if the repository
has per-release branches, which are uninteresting anyway. So, this patch
replaces heads(immutable_heads()) with trunk().
The reason we include heads(immutable_heads()) is to mitigate the following
problem. Suppose trunk() is the branch to be based off, I think using trunk()
here is pretty good.
```
A B
*---*----* trunk() ⊆ immutable_heads()
\
* C
```
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2247#discussion_r1335078879
In my linux stable mirror, this makes the default log revset evaluation super
fast. immutable_heads(), if configured properly, includes many historical
branch heads which are also the visible heads.

It should be useful at least in the presentation layer to know which
operations correspond to working-copy snapshots. They might be
rendered differently in the graph, for example. Or maybe an undo
command wants to warn if you just undid a snapshot operation. This
patch just introduces a field in the metadata to store the
information.
I think I prefer this behavior because it's less lossy. The user can
manually simplify the history with `jj rebase -s <merge commit> -d
<one of the parents>` afterwards. We can roll this change back later
if we find it annoying.
We now have lots of tests of ancestor merges in `test_bug_2600()`, so
we don't need the ones in `test_basics()`. Since it doesn't have the
"nottherootcommit" commit, it would break when we change the default
to preserve ancestor merges.
I think the conclusion from #2600 is that at least auto-rebasing
should not simplify merge commits that merge a commit with its
ancestor. Let's start by adding an option for that in the library.
The shortest change id prefix will become a few digits longer, but I think
that's acceptable. Entries included in the "revsets.short-prefixes" set are
unaffected.
The reachable set is calculated eagerly, but this is still faster as we no
longer need to sort the reachable entries by change id. The lazy version will
save another ~100ms in mid-size repos.

When adding a new workspace, I would expect that it inherits the
patterns from the workspace I ran the command in. We currently don't
do that. That's quite annoying when your repo has very many files
(like at Google).
`graphlog::Edge` is used somewhat inconsistently. I've replaced `Edge::Present`
with two distinct `Edge::Direct` and `Edge::Indirect` which simplifies the
construction of the enum.
The `ContentHash` documentation specifies that implementations for enums should
hash the ordinal number of the variant contained in the enum as a 32-bit
little-endian number and then hash the contents of the variant, if any.
The current implementations for `std::Option`, `MergedTreeId`, and
`RemoteRefState` are non-conformant since they hash the ordinal number as a u8
with platform specific endianness.
Fixes#3051
The legacy parsing rules are turned into compatibility errors. The x:y rule
is temporarily enabled when parsing string patterns. It's weird, but we can't
isolate the parsing function because a string pattern may be defined in an
alias.
This adds a config to render a synthetic node with a "(elided
revisions)" description for elided segments of the graph.
I didn't add any templating support for the elided nodes because I'm
not sure how we would want that to work. In particular, I don't know
what `commit_id` and most other keywords should return for elided
revisions.
Users who edit non-head commits usually expect `jj next/prev` to
continue to edit the next/previous commit, so let's make that the
default behavior. This should not confuse users who don't edit
non-head commits since they will simply not be in this state. My main
concern is that doing `jj next; jj prev` will now usually take you
back to the previous commit, but not if you started on the parent of a
head commit.
The main goal is to avoid having a symlink in our source tree. Currently, there
is no good way to work with the `jj` repo with `jj` on Windows. Currently `jj`
just crashes with symlinks. This is being worked on, see e.g. #2939, but it will
always depend on whether Developer Mode is enabled in Windows or whether
symlinks are materialized as text files with symlinks. Finally, MkDocs has
trouble following symlinks on Windows, so building docs wouldn't work there.
Another advantage is that, previously, we were lucky that MkDocs treats `insta`
header in `cli-reference@.md.snap` as a Markdown header and follows symlinks at
all. Now, we no longer depend on that.
Follows up 9702a425e5 "Allow negative numbers in the template grammar."
Since we've added parsing rules for operator expressions, it makes sense to
parse unary '-' as operator.
If the operation corresponding to a workspace is missing for some reason
(the specific situation in the test in this commit is that an operation
was abandoned and garbage-collected from another workspace), currently,
jj fails with a 255 error code. Teach jj a way to recover from this
situation.
When jj detects such a situation, it prints a message and stops
operation, similar to when a workspace is stale. The message tells the
user what command to run.
When that command is run, jj loads the repo at the @ operation (instead
of the operation of the workspace), creates a new commit on the @
commit with an empty tree, and then proceeds as usual - in particular,
including the auto-snapshotting of the working tree, which creates
another commit that obsoletes the newly created commit.
There are several design points I considered.
1) Whether the recovery should be automatic, or (as in this commit)
manual in that the user should be prompted to run a command. The user
might prefer to recover in another way (e.g. by simply deleting the
workspace) and this situation is (hopefully) rare enough that I think
it's better to prompt the user.
2) Which command the user should be prompted to run (and thus, which
command should be taught to perform the recovery). I chose "workspace
update-stale" because the circumstances are very similar to it: it's
symptom is that the regular jj operation is blocked somewhere at the
beginning, and "workspace update-stale" already does some special work
before the blockage (this commit adds more of such special work). But it
might be better for something more explicitly named, or even a sequence
of commands (e.g. "create a new operation that becomes @ that no
workspace points to", "low-level command that makes a workspace point to
the operation @") but I can see how this can be unnecessarily confusing
for the user.
3) How we recover. I can think of several ways:
a) Always create a commit, and allow the automatic snapshotting to
create another commit that obsoletes this commit.
b) Create a commit but somehow teach the automatic snapshotting to
replace the created commit in-place (so it has no predecessor, as viewed
in "obslog").
c) Do either a) or b), with the added improvement that if there is no
diff between the newly created commit and the former @, to behave as if
no new commit was created (@ remains as the former @).
I chose a) since it was the simplest and most easily reasoned about,
which I think is the best way to go when recovering from a rare
situation.
A subsequent commit will need to handle the return value of
check_stale_working_copy() in 3 different ways, so a boolean will soon
not be sufficient. In preparation for that, inline is_stale() into its
caller, converting it into a "match".
These operator symbols are different from the ones in the revset language. I
have no idea if we need bitwise operators, but we'll probably add comparison
operators. It would look weird if 'x == y & z' were parsed as '(x == y) & z'.
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.
It tries to push all deleted branches, but can only succeed for tracked
branches.
Closes#2946, as there's probably no need to have `--deleted --tracked`
that would only be different in that the warnings wouldn't be printed.
Thanks to @yuja for pointing this out.
Our virtual file system at Google (CitC) would like to know the commit
so it can scan backwards and find the closest mainline tree based on
it. Since we always record an operation id (which resolves to a
working-copy commit) when we write the working-copy state, it doesn't
seem like a restriction to require a commit.
When the user doesn't have a configured default command, we show a
hint saying to set `ui.default-command`. I think the user is very
likely to want to set that in the user-wide config, so let's include
the command in the hint.
I'll probably add infix logical operators later, but the surround() function
is still useful because we don't have to repeat the condition:
if(x || y, "<" ++ separate(" ", x, y) ++ ">")
surround("<", ">", separate(" ", x, y))
It can't be used if we want to add placeholder text, though:
if(x || y, "<" ++ separate(" ", x, y) ++ ">", "(none)")
Closes#2924
This reimplements the change 9faa4670d5 "cli: on init, import git refs prior
to importing HEAD." Initialization is special because the HEAD ref isn't
available to jj yet, and there is an empty working-copy commit.
The initialization function could be refactored to go through the common code
path, but I think doing that would make future improvement harder. We might
want to initialize tracking branches based on .git/config for example.
Fixes#2942
This initializes a git backed repo.
* It does the same thing as `jj init --git` except that it
has a --colocated flag to explicitly specify that we want
the .git repo to be side-by-side the .jj repo in the working
directory.
* `jj init --git` will keep the current behaviour and will not
be able to create colocated git backed repos.
* Update test snapshots.
A few minor updates after 0f27152 AKA #2945
Specifically, I tried to change the help text so that it looks better as
Markdown. I also reworded the deprecation warning and added a hint.
this has two main advantages:
- it makes it clear that the shells are mutually exclusive
- it allows us to extend the command with shell-specific options in the future if necessary
as a happy accident, it also adds support for `elvish` and `powershell`.
for backwards compatibility, this also keeps the existing options as hidden flags.
i am not super happy with how the new help looks; the instructions for setting up the shell are
squished together and IMO a little harder to read. i'm open to suggestions.
it's somewhat confusing to me that the `--bash` flag exists at all, since it does nothing - maybe it makes sense to give a hard error? or just remove the flag?
but in any case, it seems good to document the existing behavior.
previously, `jj diff` would show the full contents of binary files such as images.
after this change, it instead shows "(binary)". it still shows the filename and metadata so that
users can open the file in the viewer of their choce.
future work could involve showing binary files as Sixel or similar; finding a way to compare large
non-binary files without filling up the screen; or extending the data backends to avoid having to
read the whole file contents into memory.
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).
