- branches has the signature branches([needle]), meaning the needle is optional (branches() is equivalent to branches("")) and it matches all branches whose name contains needle as a substring - remote_branches has the signature remote_branches([branch_needle[, remote_needle]]), meaning it can be called with no arguments, or one argument (in which case, it's similar to branches), or two arguments where the first argument matches branch names and the second argument matches remote names (similar to branches, remote_branches(), remote_branches("") and remote_branches("", "") are all equivalent)

# Revsets
|
|
|
|
Jujutsu supports a functional language for selecting a set of revisions.
|
|
Expressions in this language are called "revsets" (the idea comes from
|
|
[Mercurial](https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/help/revsets)). The language
|
|
consists of symbols, operators, and functions.
|
|
|
|
Most `jj` commands accept a revset (or multiple). Many commands, such as
|
|
`jj diff -r <revset>` expect the revset to resolve to a single commit; it is
|
|
an error to pass a revset that resolves to more than one commit (or zero
|
|
commits) to such commands.
|
|
|
|
The words "revisions" and "commits" are used interchangeably in this document.
|
|
|
|
The commits listed by `jj log` without arguments are called "visible commits".
|
|
Other commits are only included if you explicitly mention them (e.g. by commit
|
|
ID or a Git ref pointing to them).
|
|
|
|
## Symbols
|
|
|
|
The symbol `root` refers to the virtual commit that is the oldest ancestor of
|
|
all other commits.
|
|
|
|
The symbol `@` refers to the working copy commit in the current workspace. Use
|
|
`<workspace name>@` to refer to the working-copy commit in another workspace.
|
|
|
|
A full commit ID refers to a single commit. A unique prefix of the full commit
|
|
ID can also be used. It is an error to use a non-unique prefix.
|
|
|
|
A full change ID refers to all visible commits with that change ID (there is
|
|
typically only one visible commit with a given change ID). A unique prefix of
|
|
the full change ID can also be used. It is an error to use a non-unique prefix.
|
|
|
|
Use double quotes to prevent a symbol from being interpreted as an expression.
|
|
For example, `"x-"` is the symbol `x-`, not the parents of symbol `x`.
|
|
Taking shell quoting into account, you may need to use something like
|
|
`jj log -r '"x-"'`.
|
|
|
|
### Priority
|
|
|
|
Jujutsu attempts to resolve a symbol in the following order:
|
|
|
|
1. `@`
|
|
2. `root`
|
|
3. Tag name
|
|
4. Branch name
|
|
5. Git ref
|
|
6. Commit ID or change ID
|
|
|
|
## Operators
|
|
|
|
The following operators are supported. `x` and `y` below can be any revset, not
|
|
only symbols.
|
|
|
|
* `x & y`: Revisions that are in both `x` and `y`.
|
|
* `x | y`: Revisions that are in either `x` or `y` (or both).
|
|
* `x ~ y`: Revisions that are in `x` but not in `y`.
|
|
* `~x`: Revisions that are not in `x`.
|
|
* `x-`: Parents of `x`.
|
|
* `x+`: Children of `x`.
|
|
* `:x`: Ancestors of `x`, including the commits in `x` itself.
|
|
* `x:`: Descendants of `x`, including the commits in `x` itself.
|
|
* `x:y`: Descendants of `x` that are also ancestors of `y`, both inclusive.
|
|
Equivalent to `x: & :y`. This is what `git log` calls `--ancestry-path x..y`.
|
|
* `x..y`: Ancestors of `y` that are not also ancestors of `x`, both inclusive.
|
|
Equivalent to `:y ~ :x`. This is what `git log` calls `x..y` (i.e. the same as
|
|
we call it).
|
|
* `..x`: Ancestors of `x`, including the commits in `x` itself. Equivalent to
|
|
`:x` and provided for consistency.
|
|
* `x..`: Revisions that are not ancestors of `x`.
|
|
|
|
You can use parentheses to control evaluation order, such as `(x & y) | z` or
|
|
`x & (y | z)`.
|
|
|
|
## Functions
|
|
|
|
You can also specify revisions by using functions. Some functions take other
|
|
revsets (expressions) as arguments.
|
|
|
|
* `parents(x)`: Same as `x-`.
|
|
* `children(x)`: Same as `x+`.
|
|
* `ancestors(x)`: Same as `:x`.
|
|
* `descendants(x)`: Same as `x:`.
|
|
* `connected(x)`: Same as `x:x`. Useful when `x` includes several commits.
|
|
* `all()`: All visible commits in the repo.
|
|
* `none()`: No commits. This function is rarely useful; it is provided for
|
|
completeness.
|
|
* `branches([needle])`: All local branch targets. If `needle` is specified,
|
|
branches whose name contains the given string are selected. For example,
|
|
`branches(push)` would match the branches `push-123` and `repushed` but not
|
|
the branch `main`. If a branch is in a conflicted state, all its possible
|
|
targets are included.
|
|
* `remote_branches([branch_needle[, remote_needle]])`: All remote branch
|
|
targets across all remotes. If just the `branch_needle` is specificed,
|
|
branches whose name contains the given string across all remotes are
|
|
selected. If both `branch_needle` and `remote_needle` are specified, the
|
|
selection is further restricted to just the remotes whose name contains
|
|
`remote_needle`. For example, `remote_branches(push, ri)` would match the
|
|
branches `push-123@origin` and `repushed@private` but not `push-123@upstream`
|
|
or `main@origin` or `main@upstream`. If a branch is in a conflicted state,
|
|
all its possible targets are included.
|
|
* `tags()`: All tag targets. If a tag is in a conflicted state, all its
|
|
possible targets are included.
|
|
* `git_refs()`: All Git ref targets as of the last import. If a Git ref
|
|
is in a conflicted state, all its possible targets are included.
|
|
* `git_head()`: The Git `HEAD` target as of the last import.
|
|
* `heads([x])`: Commits in `x` that are not ancestors of other commits in `x`.
|
|
If `x` was not specified, it selects all visible heads (as if you had said
|
|
`heads(all())`).
|
|
* `roots(x)`: Commits in `x` that are not descendants of other commits in `x`.
|
|
* `merges()`: Merge commits.
|
|
* `description(needle)`: Commits with the given string in their
|
|
description.
|
|
* `author(needle)`: Commits with the given string in the author's name or
|
|
email.
|
|
* `committer(needle)`: Commits with the given string in the committer's
|
|
name or email.
|
|
* `empty()`: Commits modifying no files. This also includes `merges()` without
|
|
user modifications and `root`.
|
|
* `file(pattern..)`: Commits modifying the paths specified by the `pattern..`.
|
|
* `present(x)`: Same as `x`, but evaluated to `none()` if any of the commits
|
|
in `x` doesn't exist (e.g. is an unknown branch name.)
|
|
|
|
## Aliases
|
|
|
|
New symbols and functions can be defined in the config file, by using any
|
|
combination of the predefined symbols/functions and other aliases.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[revset-aliases]
|
|
'mine' = 'author(martinvonz)'
|
|
'user(x)' = 'author(x) | committer(x)'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Show the parent(s) of the working-copy commit (like `git log -1 HEAD`):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r @-
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show commits not on any remote branch:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r 'remote_branches()..'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show commits not on `origin` (if you have other remotes like `fork`):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r 'remote_branches("", origin)..'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show all ancestors of the working copy (almost like plain `git log`)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r :@
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show the initial commits in the repo (the ones Git calls "root commits"):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r root+
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show some important commits (like `git --simplify-by-decoration`):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r 'tags() | branches()'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show local commits leading up to the working copy, as well as descendants of
|
|
those commits:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r '(remote_branches()..@):'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Show commits authored by "martinvonz" and containing the word "reset" in the
|
|
description:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jj log -r 'author(martinvonz) & description(reset)'
|
|
```
