Running `cargo publish` from a non-colocated repo (such as my usual
repo) is currently quite scary because it uploads all non-hidden
files, even if they're ignored by `.gitignore`
(https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/2063). I noticed this a
while ago and have always run the command from a fresh clone since
then. To avoid the need for that, let's use the workaround mentioned
on the bug, which is to explicitly list patterns we want to publish.
Apart from (IMO) looking nicer, this will also sidestep the potential problem
that if the file contains actual jj conflict markers (`>>>>>>>` in the beginning
of a line, for example), jj would currently have trouble materializing and
subsequently parsing conflicts in the file if it actually became conflicted.
I'll demo this bug in either this or a subsequent PR. It's the kind of bug that
sounds serious in theory but might never cause a problem in practice.
After this PR, only `docs/tutorial.md` has a conflict marker that's not indented.
There's only one there, so hopefully it won't be too much of a pain to deal with.
I also indented other strings in `test_conflicts.rs`. IMO, this looks nice and
more consistent with the `insta::assert_snapshot` output. I didn't spend the
time to do the same for `test_resolve_command`.
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 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.
This uses the [`clap-markdown`] library. It's not very flexible, but seems to
work. Its implementation is not difficult. If needed, we could later
reimplement the part that iterates over all subcommands and have a different
output (e.g., the boring version of each help text inside its own code block,
or a different file per subcommand, or some fancy template in handlebars or
another rust-supported templating language). I don't want to do it right now,
though.
The library does turn out to have some annoying bugs, e.g.
https://github.com/ConnorGray/clap-markdown/pull/18, but I think that's not a
deal-braker. The fix seems to be 3 lines; if the fix doesn't get merged soon, we
could vendor the library maybe?

The count() function in this trait is used by "jj branch" to determine
(and then report) how many commits a certain branch is ahead/behind
another branch. This is currently implemented by walking all commits
in the revset, counting how many were encountered. But this could be
improved: if the number is large, it is probably sufficient to report
"at least N" (instead of walking all the way), and this does not scale
well to jj backends that may not have all commits present locally (which
may prefer to return an estimate, rather than access the network).
Therefore, add a function that is explicitly documented to be O(1)
and that can return a range of values if the backend so chooses.
Also remove count(), as it is not immediately obvious that it is an
expensive call, and callers that are willing to pay the cost can obtain
the exact same functionality through iter().count() anyway. (In this
commit, all users of count() are migrated to iter().count() to preserve
all existing functionality; they will be migrated to count_estimate() in
a subsequent commit.)
"branch" needed to be updated due to this change. Although jj
is currently only available in English, I have attempted to keep
user-visible text from being assembled piece by piece, so that if we
later decide to translate jj into other languages, things will be easier
for translators.
During the transition to using more async code, I keep running into
https://github.com/rust-lang/futures-rs/issues/2090. Right now, I want
to convert `MergedTree::diff()` into a `Stream`. I don't want to
update all call sites at once, so instead I'm adding a
`MergedTree::diff_stream()` method, which just wraps
`MergedTree::diff()` in a `Stream. However, since the iterator is
synchronous, it needs to block on the async `Backend::read_tree()`
calls. If we then also block on the `Stream` in the CLI, we run into
the panic.
Since gix::Repository::config_snapshot() borrows the repo instance, it has to
be allocated in caller's stack. That's why GitBackend::git_config() is removed.
We need to let async-ness propagate up from the backend because
`block_on()` doesn't like to be called recursively. The conflict
materialization code is a good place to make async because it doesn't
depends on anything that isn't already async-ready.
The commit backend at Google is cloud-based (and so are the other
backends); it reads and writes commits from/to a server, which stores
them in a database. That makes latency much higher than for disk-based
backends. To reduce the latency, we have a local daemon process that
caches and prefetches objects. There are still many cases where
latency is high, such as when diffing two uncached commits. We can
improve that by changing some of our (jj's) algorithms to read many
objects concurrently from the backend. In the case of tree-diffing, we
can fetch one level (depth) of the tree at a time. There are several
ways of doing that:
* Make the backend methods `async`
* Use many threads for reading from the backend
* Add backend methods for batch reading
I don't think we typically need CPU parallelism, so it's wasteful to
have hundreds of threads running in order to fetch hundreds of objects
in parallel (especially when using a synchronous backend like the Git
backend). Batching would work well for the tree-diffing case, but it's
not as composable as `async`. For example, if we wanted to fetch some
commits at the same time as we were doing a diff, it's hard to see how
to do that with batching. Using async seems like our best bet.
I didn't make the backend interface's write functions async because
writes are already async with the daemon we have at Google. That
daemon will hash the object and immediately return, and then send the
object to the server in the background. I think any cloud-based
solution will need a similar daemon process. However, we may need to
reconsider this if/when jj gets used on a server with a custom backend
that writes directly to a database (i.e. no async daemon in between).
I've tried to measure the performance impact. That's the largest
difference I've been able to measure was on `jj diff
--ignore-working-copy -s --from v5.0 --to v6.0` in the Linux repo,
which increases from 749 ms to 773 ms (3.3%). In most cases I've
tested, there's no measurable difference. I've tried diffing from the
root commit, as well as `jj --ignore-working-copy log --no-graph -r
'::v3.0 & author(torvalds)' -T 'commit_id ++ "\n"'` (to test a
commit-heavy load).

Note that `jj` will only become installable once the next release
is published to crates.io. For this reason, I am planning to
wait until then before documenting the fact that `jj` can be
installed this way.
At that point, `cargo binstall jj-cli` should be sufficient.
Before then, it's possible to test that this will work by doing
```
cargo binstall jj-cli --force --strategies crate-meta-data --log-level debug --dry-run --manifest-path cli/Cargo.toml
```
Without --dry-run, this should install the 0.9 release if run
on `cli/Cargo.toml` form this commit.
Among other things, this prevented `jj` from working with
`cargo binstall`.
The trick is taken from
https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/2911#issuecomment-1483256987.
We could now also remove `--bin jj` from the installation commands
in `install-and-setup.md`, but I'm not sure we should. That argument
makes it clear that the binary is `jj`, not `jj-cli`.
Fixes#216.
I think the feature is requested by enough users that we should
include it by default, also for people who install from source (we
include it in the `packaging` feature already).
It increases the size of the binary from 16.5 MiB to 17.8 MiB. I
suspect we'd see some of that increase in size soon anyway, as I'm
probably going to use Tokio for making async backend requests.
There should be no reason to include `criterion` without the `bench`
feature. Adding the `dep:` prefix to any dependency makes cargo not
expose the implicit `criterion` feature.
The VS Code "Better TOML" plugin (which I think most of our VS Code developers use?) doesn't support the `x.y = z` syntax at the top level, even though it's valid TOML.
This is also useful if we ever want to add additional properties in different sub-crates (although unlikely for the near future).
Summary: There's no need to go around specifying `rust-version` or `edition` or
`version` several times, now that we have a global workspace. Instead, inherit
workspace metadata from the top-level Cargo.toml file.

Summary: This moves all dependencies across the jj-lib and jj-cli crates into
the top-level Cargo file; with that, we can change each crate instead to just
inherit the workspace version, with the toggled features enabled, by setting
a dependency such as:
dep.workspace = true
in the relevant Cargo.toml file.
This doesn't actually change any of the build semantics (from what I can tell)
nor the lockfile, and seems to respond normally. There are more cleanups that
can follow.
Two notes:
- Dependabot seems to work fine, based on what I've seen in other repos.
- `cargo add` doesn't seem to know how to add packages to a top-level
`workspace.dependencies` field; instead you can `cargo add -p jj-cli`
and move the entries, at least.

Summary: In preparation for unifying all workspace dependencies across all
crates, let's go ahead and move the jj-cli crate into its own new directory.
This will also be a nicer and more uniform layout as we add new `jj-*` crates.
