I'll make TreeState::snapshot() return a boolean denoting whether tree_state
is updated or not. New tree_id can be obtained from TreeState, so let's
remove it from the return value.
I was reading a draft of "Git Rev News: Edition 91" [1] where Peff
mentions some unfinished patches to allow negative timestamps in
Git. So I figured I should add support for that before I forget. I
haven't checked if libgit2 supports it, so it might be that our Git
backend still doesn't support it after this patch.

I changed the "GLOGAL OPTIONS" help heading to use title case, to
match clap's new help style.
I also removed our override of the help text for `-h, --help` because
the default text now includes "(use `-h` for a summary)" (and it's
harder override now).
Perhaps the most obvious difference to users will be the changed help
output
(https://epage.github.io/blog/2022/09/clap4/#polishing-help-output). It
no longer has color, and long lines are not wrapped. I suppose we
should wrap the text ourselves instead..
When we resolve aliases and we try to resolve something that is not a
real command and not an alias, we currently replicate `clap`'s error
message. I don't know why I did that because it seems that we should
just stop resolving aliases and let `clap` try to parse what we have
resolved at that point. This patch makes that change, thereby removing
an additional call to `process::exit()`.
In many of these places, we don't need an owned value, so using a
reference means we don't force the caller to clone the value. I really
doubt it will have any noticeable impact on performance (I think these
are all once-per-repo paths); it's just a little simpler this way.
I feel it doesn't make sense for a simple getter function to create an
owned vec after 0108673087 "backend: let each backend handle root commit
on write."
This commit moves much of the `commands` module that isn't specific to
a particular command into a new `cli_util`.
Much of this is actually not even CLI-specific, so we should move that
further down into the library, but that can come later. That includes
the code in `WorkspaceCommandHelper` for snapshotting the working copy
and automatically importing/exporting to a colocated Git working copy.
I'm trying to make it easier to create a custom `jj` binary with
custom commands, without having to replace the `Args` type we parse
arguments into. For that to work, we need to resolve aliases using the
`clap::Command` type instead.
Now that open commits are disabled by default, seeing `close` and
`open` in `jj help` is confusing.
I'm a little ambivalent about hiding `jj commit` because it's useful
as a way of adding a description and starting a new change with a
single command. We can always add a new command for that if we want
to.
As pointed out by IntelliJ (maybe it came from rust-analyzer or
something, I don't know). I also lifted out
`Err(CommandError::UserError())` and extracted a variable.
Commands that take both paths and revisions as arguments take paths as
positional arguments and use `-r` for revisions (or more specific
options like `--from` and `--to`). It's therefore natural for the user
to think that they can run e.g. `jj describe -r abc123`. However,
since `jj describe` doesn't accept paths, it doesn't have a `-r`
argument either. Let's allow the user to specify a superfluous `-r`
that we just ignore.
This handling means that the user could run `jj show -r` (without a
revision argument) and it would use the default revision. That's
confusing, but at least we won't accept e.g. `jj show -r README.md`
(unless `README.md` is a revision), so it's probably okay?
`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.
I had missed that `Ui::write_commit_summary()` still shows open
commits in green even when open commits are disabled (as they are by
default these days). This patch fixes that.
The user can still override templates to format open commits
differently, but I'm not sure it's worth fixing that.
In the current implementation, tree is diffed twice if both PATH and -p
are specified. If this adds significant cost, we'll need to reimplement
it without using a revset abstraction (or maybe adjust revset/graph API.)
Previously, using `rebase -r` on the parent of a merge commit
turned it into a non-merge commit. In other words, starting
with
```
o d
|\
o | c
o | b
| o a
|/
o
```
and doing `rebase -r c -d a` resulted in
```
o d
o b
| o c
| o a
|/
o
```
where `d` is no longer a merge commit.
For reference, here's a complete test that passed before this commit (but should NOT pass; see the diff for a test that should pass):
```

While debugging stale working-copy recovery, I noticed the checkout commit
resurrected from the ancestor_op was way beyond the ancestor commit made by
jj squash. This patch is a workaround for the problem.
I'm not pretty sure if updating operation id is the right thing. If not, maybe
we'll need to look up more recent operation corresponding to the wc tree id from
the <ancestor_op>: range?
Otherwise directories containing files cannot be removed.
I think making files readonly is enough to tell user that the left side
cannot be edited, but I haven't tested that with Meld. If that's not enough,
we'll probably need to undo set_readonly_recursively() at exit.
I keep explaining the functionality as hiding the commit, so it seems
that `jj hide` is a natural name for it. Let's start by adding it as
an alias. My only hesitation with making `hide` the real command name
and `abandon` an alias that we start phasing out is that it feels more
natural to `abandon` the working copy in order to start working on a
new change than it does to `hide` it.
Add the `jj interdiff` command for comparing only the diffs of commits.
Its args are identical to that of `jj diff`, minus `--revision` (because
interdiff always requires two commits).
Like `jj obslog -p`, Changes introduced by intervening commits are
ignored by rebasing `--from` onto `--to` 's parents.
`jj merge` just creates an empty change, which is practically the same
as `jj new`. The main difference is that the former requires more than
one argument and the latter requires at most one argument. It seems
cleaner to generalize them and make them aliases. This patch starts
doing that by making `jj new` accept more than one argument.
Instead of having `jj merge` be exactly an alias for `jj new`, we may
want to make it a thin wrapper that just checks that more than one
argument was given. That would probably be less confusing to users who
run `jj merge` without arguments to see what it does.
We should probably make `jj checkout` also be an alias for `jj new`,
but that will have to wait until we have removed support for open
commits (since `jj checkout` still has logic for dealing with open
commits).
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).
I was using a custom `jj log` command and had some trouble finding
the commit `jj merge` created. The default `jj log` command shows it
by default, but my custom one didn't.
The two commands are very similar and we should probably make one an
alias of the other (or just delete one), but for now let's at least
make them more similar by supporting `-m` for both.
I currently think `jj new` is more natural when starting a new change
on top of the current one and `jj checkout` is more natural when
starting a new change on top of another one, as well as when you just
want to look around or run tests. `jj checkout` doesn't currently
default to the working copy like `jj new` does. Perhaps we should make
it do that. Will people eventually feel that it's natural to run `jj
checkout` to create a new change on top of the working copy, or will
they feel that it's natural to run `jj new` on an unrelated commit
even to just look around, or will we want them as synonyms forever?
We have supported conflicts in the working copy for a long time (since
ea82340654), but I had forgotten to update a few references to the
old behavior.
I was initially worried about the cost of always snapshotting the
working copy, so that's why e.g. `jj diff -r <some hash>` doesn't do
it. However, there's been a few caused by missing snapshotting, and
there are still a few (I just noticed it in `jj undo` while writing
this patch). Let's always do the snapshotting and if the user really
doesn't want it, they can pass `--no-commit-working-copy` (which we
should probably rename to `--no-snapshot-working-copy` or maybe just
`--no-snapshot`). That should reduce bugs and make the CLI more
predictable.
Two test cases were affected becasue `jj merge` also didn't snapshot
the working copy.
Before this patch, e.g. `jj co --no-commit-working-copy` would error
out, but now it will succeed (without touching the working copy,
leaving the working copy stale). That may be confusing, but it should
be easy to recover from (e.g. by `jj undo`). We can consider adding a
check for it later if it seems too confusing (it's probably rarely
something the user wanted).
The working copy does not get snapshotted by `jj git push`, `jj git
push --all`, and `jj git push --branch`. This fixes that.
We should probably do the snapshotting in a more central place, so we
can't forget it like this, but I'll leave that for later.
Since we now allow pushing open commits, we can implement support for
pushing the "current" branch by defining a "current" branch as any
branch pointing to `@`. That definition of a current/active seems to
have been the consensus in discussion #411.
Closes#246.
Since whitespace change is barely visible in color-words diff, I think it
would be too verbose to add "\ No newline at end of file" marker. Let's just
append missing newline to make the command output readable.
We had a recent bug where we used a repo reference from before we
started a transaction and modified the repo. While it's often safe and
correct to use such references, it isn't always. This patch removes
all such cases. I think it generally makes the code clearer, and
better prepared for #50, if we ever get around to that. I found these
by temporarily making `WorkspaceCommandHelper::start_transaction()`
take a mutable reference.
The `CommitBuilder::store` field is used only in
`CommitBuilder::write_to_repo()`, but we can easily get access to the
`Store` from the `repo` argument there, so let's remove the field.
In the `jj git push --change X` code, we start a transaction and then
resolve the argument, which often results in the working copy getting
snapshotted. Since the snapshotting happens in its own transaction,
that means we have two concurrent operations for no good reason. This
patch fixes that by starting the main transaction a little
later. Since that restructuring made it easy to give more detailed
descriptions to the operations, I also did that.
The operation log entry for `jj git push` currently says "import git
refs". That seems like just a bad copy&paste. While it used to be
technically correct that the only effect on the repo was from the
import, now that we have the `jj git push --change`, that is no longer
even true.
It's convenient to push all changed branches every time with `jj git
push`, but sometimes I want to know which branches were actually
pushed. This make the command print what it's going to do.
I'll add a `--dry-run` mode and tests next.
Fetching is typically much expensive than checking out, so if fetching
completes but checking out fails (due to some bug, perhaps), it seems
better to commit the fetch transaction. That way, the user can inspect
the repo and try checking out again.
We used to check only if the destination already had a `.jj/`
directory. This patch changes that to check that the destination is an
empty directory.
Closes#399.
We didn't seem to have any. I included a test for #399.
The tests also showed how the debug formatting (`{:?}`) results in
escaped (e.g.) backslashes on Windows, which is not what we want, so I
also fixed that.
By adding `ui.open-commits=false` in your config, you can now make `jj
checkout` always create a new working-copy commit on top of the
specified commit. If the config is set, open commits will also appear
in the same color as closed commits in `jj log` etc. This will let
some of us experiment with the new UX before we decide if it's a good
idea or not. I left `jj close` in place because it's useful for
setting a description and creating a new commit in one step.
I didn't mention the new config in the release notes because I hope we
can reach a decision and remove the config before the next release.
When a commit gets rewritten, we update any workspaces pointing to the
old commit to check out the rewritten commit. If the rewritten commit
is closed, we create a new working-copy commit on top of it. Since
we're thinking about removing the open/closed concept, we need to make
`jj close` manually create the new working-copy commit.
This patch adds `jj obslog -p` for including the diff compared to the
predecessor (the first predecessor if there are several). If the
predecessor's parents are different, then we create a temporary tree
by rebasing the predecessor to have the same parents and we use the
result as base for the diff. That way, we avoid polluting the diff
with the changes caused by the rebase. (I don't think we currently
have any commands that can change both parents and content, so the
diff should always be empty for rewrites caused by a rebase.)
Working on this also reminded me that it'll be really nice when we
replace `jj obslog` by something based on the operation log - I really
miss seeing information about the operation in the output (like `hg
obslog` gets from its obsmarkers).
I was a bit surprised to see the message when I used `jj git push
--change @-` on a commit that already had a branch because I had
pushed it earlier.
The fix means that we instead print the message even if we later
abandon the transaction (so the branch-creation is not persisted)
because the commit is open, for example. That's already what happens
if the commit is missing a description, and since we're planning to
remove the open/closed concept, I don't think this patch makes it much
worse. We probably should improve it later by printing the message
only once the push has succeeded.
I often redirect the jj output to pager, so I set ui.color = "always" in
config file. This patch allows me to remove such config, and instead specify
--color=always only when needed.
This allows us to reconfigure ui with the parsed --color option.
I tried if implementing formatter.into_output() would make sense, and it
turned out to be a bit mess as the Formatter trait doesn't know the lifetime
of the underlying output. Ui could own the formatter behind Color|Plain enum
variant in place of Box<dyn>, but that seemed to unnecessarily change the
Ui interface with little benefit.
Since we just want to reinitialize the ui at very early stage, I think
recreating the formatters is the simplest way to go.
Regarding the formatter API, I have a feeling that Ui should keep the
underlying stdout/stderr/color_map instead of the stateful formatters.
ui.stdout_formatter() will return a temporary formatter, and maybe dropping
it will automatically clear labels. This would also means the temporary
formatter could be created with stdout.lock().
ColorChoice implements FromStr so it can be a clap argument. It could
leverage the ArgEnum derive macro, but I don't think the ui is the layer
which can depend on clap.
According to the NO_COLOR FAQ, "user-level configuration files [...] should
override $NO_COLOR." https://no-color.org/
Unfortunately this makes it harder to test the $NO_COLOR behavior since the
test environment isn't attached to a tty. We could allocate a pty or
LD_PRELOAD shim to intercept isatty(), but I feel it would be too much to do.

This patch prevents perhaps pushing commits with an empty description
or the placeholder "(no user/email configured)" values for
author/committer.
Closes#322.
None of our subcommands have any arguments at the level of the
subcommand family (e.g. no `jj git --foo fetch`), so we don't need to
wrap the `Subcommand` attribute in an `Args` attribute.
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.
The regular `Display` format is (not surprisingly) more user-friendly,
as pointed out by @yuja.
I also switched to using format strings for these cases, and some
nearby strings for consistency.
Before this change, `jj new` would check out the new commit only if it
was created on top of the current commit. I never liked that
special-casing, and after thinking more about how the open/closed
should work (see discussion #321), I think we want `jj new` to behave
similar to how `git/hg checkout` works, so it can effectively replace
the current `jj checkout` command for the use case of starting new
work on top of an existing commit.
The help text said you can `jj abandon; jj co @-` to go to the parent
commit (it it's an open commit), but `jj abandon` already takes you to
the parent.
Mercurial has these aliases, so it will be familiar for Mercurial
users. My only hesitation about adding these aliases is that we might
want the these names for something else in the future. You could
imagine `up` and `down` commands, for example. We still have a long
time before 1.0, so we have plenty of opportunity to make breaking
changes if we think of some other use for the names :)
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.
This should help make e.g. `squash` discoverable for users who search
the help output for "amend". It should also help users discover the
builtin abbreviations like `st` (for `status`).
This adds a `--reversed` flag to `jj log` to show commits with later
commits further down. It works both with and without the graph.
Since the graph-drawing code is already independent of the
relationship between commits, it doesn't need any updating.
The default log output of showing all commits is not very useful when
contributing to an existing repo. Let's have it default to showing
commits not on any remote branch instead. I think that's the best we
can do since we don't have a configurable main branch yet, and we
don't even have per-repo configuration..
Closes#250.
`log -s/--summary` and `log --git` without `-p` don't do anything. I
also don't think it's very useful to pass these flags in an alias,
where you would then sometimes also pass `-p` to see the diff summary
in the output. We already have the `diff.format` config for that use
case. So let's make both of these flags imply `-p`.
I implemented it by making the `diff_format` variable an
`Option<DiffFormat>`, which is set iff we should show a patch. That
way we have the condition in one place, and the places we use it
cannot forget to check it.
Our support for aliases is very naively implemented; it assumes the
alias is the first argument in argv. It therefore fails to resolve
aliases after global arguments such as `--at-op`.
This patch fixes that by modifying the command defintion to have an
"external subcommand" in the list of available commands. That makes
`clap` give us the remainder of the arguments when it runs into an
unknown command. The first in the list will then be an alias or simply
an unknown command. Thanks to @epage for the suggestion on in
clap-rs/clap#3672.
With the new structure, it was easy to handle recursive alias
definitions, so I added support for that too.
Closes#292.
If a chain ends, we don't count the chain itself when calculating the
padding to use before text. This patch updates a few tests to use
multi-line descriptions so this is seen.
We actually already have a case of this bug `test_operations.rs`. I
noticed that when I added that test, but it didn't bother me enough to
fix it until now.
It's much easier to update the tests with `insta`.
It also presents you with the bad output including real newlines (a
diff, actually), so we can remove the `println!()` calls we had in
order to get readable output without escaped newlines.
With this patch, the order is this:
`$JJ_EDITOR` environement variable
`ui.editor` config
`$VISUAL` environement variable
`$EDITOR` environement variable
`pico`
That matches git, except that git falls back to an editor determined
at compile time (usually `vi`) instead of using `pico`.
As I said in 095fb9fef4, removing support for `~/.jjconfig` was an
experiment. I've heard from a few people (including in #233) that they
would prefer to have configs in the home directory. This patch
therefore restores that functionality, except I added a `.toml`
extension to the file to clarify the expected format to users and
editors.
After this patch, we still allow configs in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` (and
the other paths used by `dirs::config_dir()`), but we error out there
are config files in both that location and `~/.jjconfig.toml`.
It's cleaner to have all the calls in one place, and this structure
will also make it easier to return other errors from the `dispatch()`
function.
Note that there's still a call to `process::exit()` inside `clap` when
it fails to parse arguments.
We didn't have any testing of exit codes on failure, other than
checking that they were not 0. This patch changes that so we always
check. Since we have the special exit code 2 (set by `clap`) for
incorrect command line, I've replaced some testing of error messages
by testing of just the exit code.
As part of this, I also fixed `jj branch --allow-backwards` to
actually require `-r` (it didn't before because having a default value
means the argument is considered always provided).
The function only needs a mutable reference (it doesn't store an owned
value anywhere), and this will enable the caller (i.e. `main()`) to
use the `Ui` instance after control returns from `dispatch()`.
Tree merges can currently fail because of a failure to look up an
object, or because of a failure to read its contents. Both results in
`BackendError` because of a `impl From<std::io::Error> for
BackendError`. That's kind of correct in this case, but it wasn't
intentional (that impl was from `local_backend`), and we need to
making errors more specific for better error handling.
Apparently, I need to pass `--merge` option to use kdiff3 as a diff editor.
We could add `diff-editor-args` or extend `diff-editor` to a list of command
arguments, but we'll eventually add stock merge tools and the configuration
would look like:
[merge-tools.<name>]
program = ...
diff-args = [...]
edit-args = [...]
merge-args = [...]
I think I copied the name `write_tree()` from Git, but I find it quite
confusing, since it's not clear if it write a tree to the working copy
or reads the working copy and writes a tree to the store (it's the
former).
Used to produce a message like this:
```
thread 'main' panicked at 'failed to run diff editor: Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }', src/diff_edit.rs:136:10
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
```
Now produces a message like this:
```
Error: Failed to edit diff: Error executing editor 'meld': No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
This adds `jj git push --change <revision>` which creates a branch
with a name based on the revision's change ID, and then pushes that
like with `--branch`. That can be useful so you don't have to manually
add the branch (and come up with a name for it). The created branch
behaves like any other branch, so it's possible to make it point to a
commit with a different change ID.
This is actually enough to fix#248, but I'll continue to work on
error handling for a while. I'd like to at least include the bad
object ID in this type of error messages.
Closes#248.
As requested by @talpr. I added this is a separate new command `jj git
remote list`. One could also imagine showing the listing when there is
no sub-command specified to `jj git remote`, but we don't have other
commands that behave that way yet.
Closes#243
This adds a `jj sparse` command with options to list and manage the
set of paths to include in the working copy. It only supports includes
(postive matches) for now.
I'm not sure "sparse" is the best name for the feature. Perhaps it
would make sense as a subcommand under `jj workspace` - maybe `jj
workspace track`? However, there's also `jj untrack` for removing a
file from the working copy and leaving it in the working copy. I'm
happy to hear suggestions, or we can get back to the naming later.
Most commands that are going to make changes to the working copy want
to share some logic for detecting concurrent changes, so let's extract
that to a function.
It's useful for testing to be able to specify some operation that's
not the latest one.
I didn't update the changelog because this feature is mostly for
testing.
When loading a repo, `@` means the latest operation, possibly even
merging any concurrent operations. After loading a repo, `@` means the
operation the repo was loaded at. For example, when running `jj
--at-op=abc123 undo -o @`, `@` will undo operation `abc123`. This
patch therefore makes `resolve_single_op()` more generic by letting
the caller pass in what `@` should resolve to. I also added version of
the function on `WorkspaceCommandHelper` for convenience.
The function doesn't make anything simpler for us, and I think it will
be easier to implement simple "opsets" (like "revsets" for operations)
if we work directly with the operation objects (instead of repo
objects).
I originally made the operation argument a named argument
(`--operation`) to allow for a change ID to be passed as a positional
argument, matching e.g. `hg revert -r <rev> <path>`. However, even if
we add support for undoing changes only to certain change IDs, it's
going to be done much less frequently than full undo/restore. We can
therefore make that a named argument if we ever add it.
Somehow I had thought that setting `clap(required = true)` on a
list-type argument was not enough to convince clap to require at least
one occurrence, but it seems that it does. The `min_values = 1` I had
added to get it to work actually means that we accept multiple values
passed to a single argument (e.g. `jj rebase -d x y z`), which is not
what I had intended.
This addresses a TODO I had left in the code. In addition to the
reasons I mentioned in the TODO, config sources are also better
because they can be layered. I'm planning on using that for editor
configs, letting `$EDITOR` be a layer under the configs and
`$JJ_EDITOR` be a layer over (matching how `git` does it).
It's annoying especially for tests to not be able to append to a
config file without knowing the contents (as you have to do with
TOML). Let's read all files in a directory if `$JJ_CONFIG` points to a
directory. Mercurial does that for its `$HGRCPATH` variable.
I quite often want to move the changes to a particular file from one
commit to another. We already support that using `jj move -i`, but
that can be annoying to run because we don't have a TUI for it
(#48). Let's make it possible to do `jj move --from X --to Y <path>`.
It seems very unlikely that the user would want to untrack all paths
(that's still possible with `jj untrack .`, if they really want to,
and have added all their current paths to the `.gitignore`).
I'm adding this mostly because it's useful for testing. That's also
the reason it supports displaying conflicts. I didn't call it `cat`
like `hg cat` because I haven't found `hg cat` on multiple files
useful.
This removes the ui dependency from show_diff(), and clarifies that the
formatter argument is the output stream.
We might eventually trun DiffFormat into a struct, but it's an enum for
now.
With this change, we can eliminate (some of) the ui argument from diff
functions.
parse_file_path() can also be moved to WorkspaceCommandHelper, but I'm
yet to be sure how to reorganize it and matcher builder.
This prepares for the removal of the ui argument from diff functions. I
think it's a bit confusing that these functions take (ui, formatter)
parameters since both ui/formatter can be output stream.
Ui::format_file_path() will be moved to WorkspaceCommandHelper.
show_git_diff() doesn't need WorkspaceCommandHelper as of now, but I've
also changed its signature for consistency. If we add an option to specify
path formatting of git diff for example, we'll probably need the command
helper.
I've found it hard to read the `jj help` output because command
options are mixed with global options. This patch fixes that by
putting global options under a separate heading.
We do it for all the other kinds of objects already. It's useful to
have the path for backends that store objects by path (we don't have
any such backends yet). I think the reason I didn't do it from the
beginning was because we had separate `RepoPath` types for files and
directories back then.
When initializing a workspace that shares its working copy with a Git
repo (i.e. `jj init --git-repo=.`), we import refs and HEAD when
creating the `WorkspaceCommandHelper` (as we do for all commands when
the working copy is shared). That makes the explicit import we do in
`cmd_init()` unnecessary. It also makes the checkout of HEAD I added
for the fix of #102 unnecessary. More importantly, as @yuja reported
in #177, it makes the command crash (at least if the repo is small
enough that the two checkouts happen within a second). I think the
problem is that the second checkout tries to create the same commit
except that the Change ID is different (the problem is not the
predecessors as I speculated in the issue tracker). The fix is to
simply avoid doing the redundant work. We still need a proper fix for
#27 eventually.
Closes#177.
This patch adds a very simple e2e test of having a working copy shared
with Git. The test initially failed on Windows. The symptom was that
the "master" branch did not get updated when we create a commit using
`jj`. That suggested that we didn't correctly detect that the working
copy was shared. After a lot of troubleshooting, I think I mostly
understand what we going on here (thanks to @arxanas for suggesting
https://github.com/mxschmitt/action-tmate). The path we get from
`git2::Repository::workdir()` seems to not be canonicalized in the
same way as `std::fs::canonicalize()` canonicalizes. Specifically, it
does not have the "\\?\" prefix we get from that function. I suppose
that's because libgit2 is a C library and canonicalizes the path using
some other system call.
"log -p | less" is the option I often use with hg/git to find interesting
bits from the changelog, and I think it's also valid with jj. Unlike
"hg log -p --stat", "jj log -p --summary" does not show both diff summary
and patch to reflect the internal structure. This behavoir is arguable and
may be changed later.
The logic of show_patch() is extracted from cmd_show().
We might want to split show_diff() into config/option handling part and
diff displayer function, but I'm not sure. Since some of the show_diff
functions depends on ui, we can't isolate show_diff() from the ui object
anyway.
let opts = parse_diff_option(ui, args); // map config/option to diff opts
show_diff(ui, formatter, opts, ...); // would be nice if ui could be removed
