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
Since IdIndex sorts the entries by using .sort_unstable_by_key(), the order of
the same-key elements is undefined. Perhaps, it's stable for short arrays, and
the test passes because of that.
I'm going to introduce breaking changes in index format. Some of them will
affect the file size, so version number or signature won't be needed. However,
I think it's safer to detect the format change as early as possible.
I have no idea if embedded version number is the best way. Because segment
files are looked up through the operation links, the version number could be
stored there and/or the "segments" directory could be versioned. If we want to
support multiple format versions and clients, it might be better to split the
tables into data chunks (e.g. graph entries, commit id table, change id table),
and add per-chunk version/type tag. I choose the per-file version just because
it's simple and would be non-controversial.
As I'm going to introduce format change pretty soon, this patch doesn't
implement data migration. The existing index files will be deleted and new
files will be created from scratch.
Planned index format changes include:
1. remove unused "flags" field
2. inline commit parents up to two
3. add sorted change ids table
This is #3002 with tests rerun to account for changes
to `strsim`, as @thoughtpolice noticed in
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/3002#issuecomment-1936763101
The string similarity changes include an example that
seems better and one that seems worse. Decreasing
the threshold definitely makes things worse.
I was a bit surprised to learn (or be reminded?) that checking out
symlinks on Windows leads to a panic. This patch fixes the crash by
materializing symlinks from the repo as regular files. It also updates
the snapshotting code so we preserve the symlink-ness of a path. The
user can update the symlink in the repo by updating the regular file
in the working copy. This seems to match Git's behavior on Windows
when symlinks are disabled.
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.
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.
This mostly reverts https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2901 as well as its
fixup https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2903. The related bug is reopened,
see https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2869#issuecomment-1920367932.
The problem is that while the fix did fix#2869 in most cases, it did
reintroduce the more severe bug https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/issues/2760
in one case, if the working copy is the commit being rebased.
For example, suppose you have the tree
```
root -> A -> B -> @ (empty) -> C
```
### Before this commit
#### Case 1
`jj rebase -s B -d root --skip-empty` would work perfectly before this
commit, resulting in
```
root -> A
\-------B -> C
\- @ (new, empty)
```
#### Case 2
Unfortunately, if you run `jj rebase -s @ -d A --skip-empty`, you'd have the
following result (before this commit), which shows the reintroduction of #2760:
```
root -> A @ -> C
\-- B
```
with the working copy at `A`. The reason for this is explained in
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/2901#issuecomment-1920043560.
### After this commit
After this commit, both case 1 and case 2 will be wrong in the sense of #2869,
but it will no longer exhibit the worse bug #2760 in the second case.
Case 1 would result in:
```
root -> A
\-------B -> @ (empty) -> C
```
Case 2 would result in:
```
root -> A -> @ -> C
\-- B
```
with the working copy remaining a descendant of A
With my jj repo, the number of jj/keep refs went down from 87887 to 27733.
The .git directory size is halved, but we'll need to clean up extra and index
files to save disk space. "git gc --prune=now && jj debug reindex" passed, so
the repo wouldn't be corrupted.
#12
I'm going to make WorkspaceCommandHelper::maybe_snapshot() snapshot the working
copy before importing refs. git::import_some_refs() can rebase the working copy
branch and therefore @ can be moved. git::import_head() doesn't, and it should
be invoked before snapshotting.
git::import_head() is inserted to some of the git:import_refs() callers where
HEAD seems to matter. I feel it's a bit odd that the HEAD ref is imported to
non-colocated repo, but "jj init --git-repo" relies on that, and I think the
existence of HEAD@git is harmless. It's merely a ref to the revision checked
out somewhere else.
We didn't have any tests with negative snapshots (after a `-------`
line). I initially thought we couldn't produce such conflict markers
anymore. I'm not sure we want to render conflicts like the one in the
test like this. I don't think I intended for `add_index` in the code
to be able to be two steps ahead of the remove. Maybe we should
rewrite the algorithm to not do that and thus never produce negative
snapshots.
It seems obvious in hindsight to have a virtual root operation just
like we have a virtual root commit. It removes the same kind of
problems by making sure there's always a common ancestor (or multiple)
between any two commits.
I think the reason I didn't add a root operation from the beginning
was that there used to be a mandatory working-copy commit in the view
(this was before support for multiple workspaces).
Perhaps we should remove the "initialize repo" operation now. The only
difference between their view objects is that the "initialize repo"
operation adds the root commit as a head. We could add that to the
root operation, but then the root operation's value depends on the
commit backend.
We've had the public_heads for as long as we've had the View object,
IIRC (I didn't check), but we still don't use it for anything. I don't
have any concrete plans for using it either. Maybe our config for
immutable commits is good enough, or maybe we'll want something more
generic (like Mercurial's phases). For now, I think we should simplify
by removing it the storage for public heads.
Since hidden commits can be looked up by remote_branches() revset for example,
reindexing should traverse ancestors from all named refs in addition to the
visible heads.
change_id_index() is only used by Readonly/MutableRepo, so we don't need an
abstraction at Index. evaluate_revset() is somewhat similar, but the callers
rely on &dyn Repo.
Since new operations and views may be added concurrently by another process,
there's a risk of data corruption. The keep_newer parameter is a mitigation
for this problem. It's set to preserve files modified within the last 2 weeks,
which is the default of "git gc". Still, a concurrent process may replace an
existing view which is about to be deleted by the gc process, and the view
file would be lost.
#12
We current have `Revset::change_id_index()` for creating a
`ChangeIdIndex` for a given revset. I think it will be hard to make it
performant for general revsets, especially in very large repos and
with custom index implementations, like the one we have at Google. If
we instead restrict it to including all ancestors of a set of heads, I
think it will be much easier to implement. We only use
`Revset::change_id_index()` with revsets including all visible commits
today, so we won't lose any current functionality by making it more
restricted.
I plan to replace `Revset::change_id_index()` by
`Index::change_id_index(heads)`, but one of the tests currently uses a
set of commits that does not include ancestors. This patch updates it
to include ancestors (and changes the set of heads to keep the set
small enough for the test).
This isn't technically needed, but it prevents API misuse. Another option
is to do some compile-time substitution, but most callers are tests and the
runtime performance wouldn't matter.
I'm going to add try_from_hex(), which requires Self: Sized. Such trait bound
could be added, but I don't think we'll need abstracted ObjectId constructors
at all.
I'm going to add a prefix resolution method to OpStore, but OpStore is
unrelated to the index. I think ObjectId, HexPrefix, and PrefixResolution can
be extracted to this module.
This will be used in "jj op abandon ..op_id" command. The "op_id..@" range will
be reparented onto the root operation.
The current implementation is good enough for local repos, but it won't scale.
We might want to extract it as a trait method or introduce OpIndex for
efficient DAG operation.
Fixes#2760
Given the tree:
```
A-B-C
\
B2
```
And the command `jj rebase -s B -d B2`
We were previously marking B as abandoned, despite the comment stating that we were marking it as being succeeded by B2. This resulted in a call to `rewrite(rewrites={}, abandoned={B})` instead of `rewrite(rewrites={B=>B2}, abandoned={})`, which then made the new parent of `C` into `A` instead of `B2`
This completes the process of removing DescendantRebaser-related APIs from
tests. It requires creating some new test utils and a new
`rebase_descendants_with_option_return_map`.
This removes uses of `DescendantRebaser::new` or
`MutRepo::create_descendant_rebaser` from most tests. The exceptions are the
tests having to do with abandoning empty commits on rebase, since adjusting
those is a bit more elaborate (see follow-up commits).
A possible use case is when doing some archaeology around a certain operation.
The current implementation is quadratic if + is repeated. Suppose op_id is
usually close to the current op heads, I think it'll practically work better
than building a reverse lookup table.
My jj repo contains such head commits, and "jj debug reindex" fails. To address
this problem, we'll probably need to implement GC, and the user will discard
operations before the first bad op id.
This requires creating a new public API as a substitute. I took the opportunity
to also add some comments to the
`MutRepo::record_rewritten_commit`/`record_abandoned_commit` functions.
I imade the simplest possible addition to the API; it is not a very elegant
one. Eventually, the entire `record_rewritten_commit` API should probably be
refactored again.
I also added some comments explaining what these functions do.
Spotted while adding error propagation there. This wouldn't likely be a real
problem because "jj debug reindex" removes all of the operation links.
The "} else {" condition is removed because it doesn't make sense to exclude
only the exact parent_op_id operation. This can be optimized to not walk
ancestors of the parent_op_id operation, but I don't see a motivation to add
tests covering such scenarios. It's pretty rare that an intermediate operation
link is missing.
We'll probably need a better abstraction, but a separate method is good
enough to remove unsafe code from ReadonlyRepo.
I'm not sure if this is feasible for the other backends, but I guess there
would be less lifetimed variables than DefaultReadonlyIndex.
It seems better to have the caller pass the transaction description
when we finish the transaction than when we start it. That way we have
all the information we want to include more readily available.
Previously, the function relied on both the `self.parent_mapping` and
`self.rebased`. If `(A,B)` was in `parent_mapping` and `(B,C)` was in `rebased`,
`new_parents` would map `A` to `C`.
Now, `self.rebased` is ignored by `new_parents`. In the same situation,
DescendantRebaser is changed so that both `(A,B)` and `(B,C)` are in
`parent_mapping` before. `new_parents` now applies `parent_mapping` repeatedly,
and will map `A` to `C` in this situation.
## Cons
- The semantics are changed; `new_parents` now panics if `self.parent_mapping`
contain cycles. AFAICT, such cycles never happen in `jj` anyway, except for
one test that I had to fix. I think it's a sensible restriction to live with;
if you do want to swap children of two commits, you can call
`rebase_descendants` twice.
## Pros
- I find the new logic much easier to reason about. I plan to extract it into a
function, to be used in refactors for `jj rebase -r` and `jj new --after`. It
will make it much easier to have a correct implementation of `jj rebase -r
--after`, even when rebasing onto a descendant.
- The de-duplication is no longer O(n^2). I tried to keep the common case fast.
## Alternatives
- We could make `jj rebase` and `jj new` use a separate function with the
algorithm shown here, without changing DescendantRebaser. I believe that the new
algorithm makes DescendatRebaser easier to understand, though, and it feels more
elegant to reduce code duplication.
- The de-duplication optimization here is independent of other changes, and
could be used on its own.
default_index_store.rs is relatively big, and it contains types and impls in
arbitrary order. Let's split them into sub modules. After everything moved,
mod.rs will only contain tests.
The wrapper type isn't needed for the mutable layer, but this mirrors the
readonly type structure. Test cases are also migrated to be using the index
wrapper so long as we don't have to care for the nesting of the segment files.
Gitoxide errors don't implement PartialEq. We could instead stringify the
errors, but there aren't many callers who expect FailedRefExportReason to
be comparable.
I think this is a variant of the problem fixed by 7fda80fc22 "tree: simplify
conflict before resolving at hunk level." We need to simplify() the conflict
before and after extracting file ids because the source conflict values may
contain trees to be cancelled out, and the file values may differ only in exec
bits. Since the legacy tree passes a simplified conflict in to this function,
I made the merged tree do the same.
Fixes#2654
Otherwise an empty subtree would be added to the parent tree.
If the stored tree contained an empty subtree, simplify() wouldn't work
against new "absent" subtree representation. I don't know if there's a
such code path, but I believe it's very rare to encounter the problem.
#2654
In snapshot(), changed_file_states are received in arbitrary order. For the
other callers, entries are in diff_stream order, so we don't have to sort
them.
With watchman enabled, we can see the cost of sorting the sorted proto entries.
I don't think this is significant, but we can mitigate it by adding
is_file_states_sorted flag to the proto message if needed:

I haven't measured snapshotting against dirty working copy, but I don't think
it would be slower than the original implementation.
This enables cheap str-to-RepoPath cast, which is useful when sorting and
filtering a large Vec<(String, _)> list by using matcher for example. It
will also eliminate temporary allocation by repo_path.parent().
I'm going to add borrowed RepoPath type, and most from_internal_string()
callers will be migrated to it. For the remaining callers, it makes more
sense to move the ownership of String to RepoPathBuf.
RepoPath::from_components() is removed since it is no longer a primitive
function.
The components iterator could be implemented on top of str::split(), but
it's not as we'll probably want to add components.as_path() -> &RepoPath.
Tree walking and tree_states map construction get slightly faster thanks to
fewer allocations and/or better cache locality. If we add a borrowed RepoPath
type, we can also implement a cheap &str to &RepoPath conversion on top. Then,
we can get rid of BTreeMap<RepoPath, FileState> construction at all.

This is a step towards introducing a borrowed RepoPath type. The current
RepoPath type is inefficient as each component String is usually short. We
could apply short-string optimization, but still each inlined component would
consume 24 bytes just for e.g. "src", and increase the chance of random memory
access. If the owned RepoPath type is backed by String, we can implement cheap
cast from &str to borrowed &RepoPath type.
`RevsetExpression::resolve()` is meant for programmatically created
expressions. In particular, it may not contain symbols. Let's try to
clarify that by renaming the function and documenting it.
Hopefully this will fix the unfinished Windows CI issue. A possible scenario
is that recent migration to gitoxide made this test flaky on Windows. For
example, gitoxide might have in-memory object cache that relies on file mtime,
and occasionally fails to detect new object on Windows.
If a commit pointed to by HEAD or ref is missing, the ref is considered
invalid and excluded by import_refs(). The current test behavior appears to
depend on some in-memory cache of git2::Repository.
GitBackend will use it to configure gix::Repository. I think UserSettings
is generally useful to pass store-specific parameters, so I've updated all
factory functions.
As discussed in Discord, it's less useful if remote_branches() included
Git-tracking branches. Users wouldn't consider the backing Git repo as
a remote.
We could allow explicit 'remote_branches(remote=exact:"git")' query by changing
the default remote pattern to something like 'remote=~exact:"git"'. I don't
know which will be better overall, but we don't have support for negative
patterns anyway.
Since the concurrent diff algorithm is significantly slower when using
the Git backend, I think we'll have to use switch between the two
algorithms depending on backend. Even if the concurrent version always
performed as well as the sequential version, exactly how concurrent it
should be probably still depends on the backend. This commit therefore
adds a function to the `Backend` trait, so each backend can say how
much concurrency they deal well with. I then use that number for
choosing between the sequential and concurrent versions in
`MergedTree::diff_stream()`, and also to decide the number of
concurrent reads to do in the concurrent version.
When diffing two trees, we currently start at the root and diff those
trees. Then we diff each subtree, one at a time, recursively. When
using a commit backend that uses remote storage, like our backend at
Google does, diffing the subtrees one at a time gets very slow. We
should be able to diff subtrees concurrently. That way, the number of
roundtrips to a server becomes determined by the depth of the deepest
difference instead of by the number of differing trees (times 2,
even). This patch implements such an algorithm behind a `Stream`
interface. It's not hooked in to `MergedTree::diff_stream()` yet; that
will happen in the next commit.
I timed the new implementation by updating `jj diff -s` to use the new
diff stream and then ran it on the Linux repo with `jj diff
--ignore-working-copy -s --from v5.0 --to v6.0`. That slowed down by
~20%, from ~750 ms to ~900 ms. Maybe we can get some of that
performance back but I think it'll be hard to match
`MergedTree::diff()`. We can decide later if we're okay with the
difference (after hopefully reducing the gap a bit) or if we want to
keep both implementations.
I also timed the new implementation on our cloud-based repo at
Google. As expected, it made some diffs much faster (I'm not sure if
I'm allowed to share figures).
I'm about to add a few more checks for diffing with a matcher. I think
it will help make it readable and reduce the risk of mixing up
variables between each part of the test if we use some nested blocks.
I also removed some unnecessary `.clone()` calls while at it.
I'm going to add a Merge method that removes negative/positive terms pair, and
swap_remove() is the easiest option. The order of the conflicted ref targets
doesn't matter.
One less git2 API use in CLI.
The function name GitBackend::init_colocated() is a bit odd, but we need to
specify the work-tree path, not the ".git" repo path. So we can't eliminate
the notion of the working copy path anyway.
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.
We had similar code in two places for restoring paths from one tree to
another. Let's reuse it instead.
I put the new function in the `rewrite` module. I'm not sure if that's
right place. Maybe it belongs in `tree`?
I want to fix error propagation before I start using async in this
code. This makes the diff iterator propagate errors from reading tree
objects.
Errors include the path and don't stop the iteration. The idea is that
we should be able to show the user an error inline in diff output if
we failed to read a tree. That's going to be especially useful for
backends that can return `BackendError::AccessDenied`. That error
variant doesn't yet exist, but I plan to add it, and use it in
Google's internal backend.
I'm going to add `MergedTreeValue` as an alias for
`Merge<Option<TreeValue>>`, but we already have a type by that name in
`merged_tree`. This patch renames it away, to make room for the new
alias. I used `MergedTreeVal` for this borrowing version to be a bit
like how `str` is a borrowed version of `String`.
Resolves states are most common and the current format is pretty
verbose. Let's print it as if `Merge` were an enum with `Resolved` and
`Conflicted` variants instead.
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.
This means that the commits previously pinned by remote branches are no longer
abandoned. I think that's more correct since "push" is the operation to
propagate local view to remote, and uninteresting commits should have been
locally abandoned.
Since pushed remote branches will share the common base targets with locals,
these branches should be marked as tracking. git::push_branches() will handle
that. It looks ugly that the public GitBranchPushTargets type keeps "force"-d
branches as a separate set, but we'll need to rework that anyway when we
implement --force-with-lease behavior. So let's leave it for now.
Some of the git::push_updates() tests have been migrated to the new function.
I left a couple of basic tests for git::push_updates() because push_updates()
will be used to implement a low-level "jj git push-refs" command.
I made import_refs() not preserve commits referenced by remote branches at
520f692a46 "git: on import_refs(), don't preserve old branches referenced by
remote refs." The idea is that remote branches are weak, and commits referenced
by these refs can be freely rewritten by future local changes without moving
the refs. I don't think that's wrong, but 520f692a46 also made "new" remote
changes be abandoned by old remote refs. This problem occurs only when
git.auto-local-branch is off.
I think there are two ways to fix the problem:
a. pin non-tracking remote branches just like local refs
b. pin newly fetched refs in addition to local refs
This patch implements (b) because it's simpler and more obvious that the
fetched commits would never be abandoned immediately.
This add support for custom `jj` binaries to use custom working-copy
backends. It works in the same way as with the other backends, i.e. we
write a `.jj/working_copy/type` file when the working copy is
initialized, and then we let that file control which implementation to
use (see previous commit).
I included an example of a (useless) working-copy implementation. I
hope we can figure out a way to test the examples some day.
This makes `Workspace::load()` look a new `.jj/working_copy/type` file
in order to load the right working copy implementation, just like
`Repo::load()` picks the right backends based on `.jj/store/type`,
`.jj/op_store/type`, etc. We don't write the file yet, and we don't
have a way of adding alternative working copy implementations, so it
will always be `LocalWorkingCopy` for now.
Our internal working copy implementations at Google will need the
commit so they can walk history backwards until they get to a "public"
commit. They'll then use that to tell build tools and virtual file
systems to present that as a base.
I'm not sure if we'll need to update `reset()` too. It's currently
only used by `jj untrack`, which doesn't change the commit's parent,
so it wouldn't affect any history walks.
`ReadonlyRepo::init()` takes callbacks for initializing each kind of
backend. We called these things like `op_store_initializer`. I found
that confusing because it is not a `OpStoreFactory` (which is for
loading an existing backend). This patch tries to clarify that by
renaming the arguments and adding types for each kind of callback
function.
The state field isn't saved yet. git import/export code paths are migrated,
but new tracking state is always calculated based on git.auto-local-branch
setting. So the tracking state is effectively a global flag.
As we don't know whether the existing remote branches have been merged in to
local branches, we assume that remote branches are "tracking" so long as the
local counterparts exist. This means existing locally-deleted branch won't
be pushed without re-tracking it. I think it's rare to leave locally-deleted
branches for long. For "git.auto-local-branch = false" setup, users might have
to untrack branches if they've manually "merged" remote branches and want to
continue that workflow. I considered using git.auto-local-branch setting in the
migration path, but I don't think that would give a better result. The setting
may be toggled after the branches got merged, and I'm planning to change it
default off for better Git interop.
Implementation-wise, the state enum can be a simple bool. It's enum just
because I originally considered to pack "forgotten" concept into it. I have
no idea which will be better for future extension.
It's going to be easier to define a `LockedWorkingCopy` trait if it
doesn't need to borrow from `WorkingCopy`, so let's remove the
reference we currently have and have
`LockedLocalWorkingCopy::finish()` return the new `LocalWorkingCopy`
instead.
I think the main disadvantage is that we now have to remember to
replace the old `LocalWorkingCopy` instance by the new one, whereas
the compiler would remind us before this commit. We could make
`start_modification()` take an owned `self`, but that would be a bit
annoying to work with when we have the instance stored in a field.
I'm about to make `LockedLocalWorkingCopy` not borrow from
`LocalWorkingCopy`. That will make it easier to forget to update any
`LocalWorkingCopy` variables when the modifications have been
committed. This patch introduces a wrapper around
`LockedLocalWorkingCopy` to help prevent that.
Thanks to Yuya for the suggestion.
`LocalWorkingCopy::check_out()` can be expressed using the planned
`WorkingCopy` trait, so it doesn't need to be in the trait itself
`WorkingCopy`. I wasn't sure if I should make it a free function in
`working_copy`, but I ended up moving it onto `Workspace`.
Since set_remote_branch_target() is called while merging refs, its tracking
state shouldn't be reinitialized. The other callers are migrated to new setter
to keep the story simple.
This isn't important, but I'm going to change remote_targets to store RemoteRef
instead of RefTarget, so I went ahead and change the other field types as well.
There's a subtle behavior change. Unlike the original remove_remote_branch(),
remote_views entry is not discarded when the branches map becomes empty. The
reasoning here is that the remote view can be added/removed when the remote
is added/removed respectively, though that's not implemented yet. Since the
serialized data cannot represent an empty remote, such view may generate
non-unique content hash.
get_branch() would need to reconstruct the remote_targets map if we migrate
the underlying data structure to per-remote views. Let's remove the method as
it is only used in tests.
It seems pretty clear from the context. Turns out we only use the
function in a test case. Maybe we don't even need it. It's easy to
provide it, though.
Before this patch, when updating to a commit that has a file that's
currently an ignored file on disk, jj would crash. After this patch,
we instead leave the conflicting files or directories on disk. We
print a helpful message about how to inspect the differences between
the intended working copy and the actual working copy, and how to
discard the unintended changes.
Closes#976.
It's about time we make the working copy a pluggable backend like we
have for the other storage. We will use it at Google for at least two
reasons:
* To support our virtual file system. That will be a completely
separate working copy backend, which will interact with the virtual
file system to update and snapshot the working copy.
* On local disk, we need to tell our build system where to find the
paths that are not in the sparse patterns. We plan to do that by
wrapping the standard local working copy backend (the one moved in
this commit), writing a symlink that points to the mainline commit
where the "background" files can be read from.
Let's start by renaming the exising implementation to
`local_working_copy`.
I've added a boolean flag to the store to ensure that the migration never runs
more than once after the view gets "op restore"-d. I'll probably reorganize the
branches structure to support non-tracking branches later, but updating the
storage format in a single commit would be too involved.
If jj is downgraded, these "git" remote refs would be exported to the Git repo.
Users might have to remove them manually.
As we can set HEAD to an arbitrary ref by using .reference_symbolic(), we don't
have to manage a ref that can also be valid as a branch name.
Fixes#1495
I ran into a bug the other day where `jj status` said there was a
conflict in a file but there were no conflict markers in the working
copy. The commit was created when I squashed a conflict resolution
into the commit's parent. The rebased child commit then ended up in
this state. I.e., it looked something like this before squashing:
```
C (no conflict)
|
| B conflict
|/
A conflict
```
The conflict in B was different from the conflict in A. When I
squashed in C, jj would try to resolve the conflicts by first creating
a 7-way conflict (3 from A, 3 from B, 1 from C). Because of the exact
content-level changes, the 7-way conflict couldn't be automatically
resolved by `files::merge()` (the way it currently works
anyway). However, after simplifying the conflict, it could be
resolved. Because `MergedTree::merge()` does another round of conflict
simplification of the result at the end of the function, it was the
simplifed version that actually got stored in the commit. So when
inspecting the conflict later (e.g. in the working copy, as I did), it
could be automatically resolved.
I think there are at least two ways to solve this. One is to call
`merge_trees()` again after calling `tree.simplify()` in
`MergedTree::merge()`. However, I think it would only matter in the
case of content-level conflicts. Therefore, it seems better to make
the content-level resolution solve this case to start with. I've done
that by simplifying the conflict before passing it into
`files::merge()`. We could even do the fix in `files::merge()`, but
doing it before calling it has the advantage that we can avoid reading
some unchanged content from the backend.
I don't think the backend should matter for any of these tests, so
let's test with only one, and let's make that the strictest one - the
new test backend.
This reduces the number of tests by 74 (from 974 to 900), but saves no
measurable run time.
Only tests dealing with Git submodules care about the backend type.
Switching the tests to use the test backend also uncovered another bug
in `MergedTree`, so I fixed that too. The bug only happens with legacy
trees (path-level conflicts) and backends that care about the conflict
path, so it wouldn't happen with Git backends, and it wouldn't happen
at Google either (because we use tree-level conflicts).
I don't think there's any reason to use the local backend in tests
instead of using the stricter test backend.
I think we should generally use the test backend in tests and only use
the local backend or git backend when there's a particular reason to
do so (such as in `test_bad_locking` where the on-disk directory
structure matters). But this patch only deals with the simpler cases
where we were only testing with the local backend.
This fixes a bug where we used the parent directory's path when trying
read trees and files for a child entry. Many tests in
`test_merged_tree` fail after switching to the test backend there
without this fix/
It makes the call sites clearer if we pass the `TestRepoBackend` enum
instead of the boolean `use_git` value. It's also more extensible (I
plan to add another backend for tests).
I don't think there's much reason to run most tests with a `.git`
directory outside of `.jj`. I think it's just that way for historical
reasons. It's been that way since I added support for `.jj`-internal
repos in a8a9f7dedd.
The reason I want to switch is to make it a little easier to create
test repos for different backends. The problem with `.jj`-external git
repos is that they depend on an additional path.
I had to update `test_bad_locking.rs` to make the code merging
directories able handle missing directories on some side, because
git's loose objects result in directories getting created on one or
both sides.
I ran into some issues here when switching our tests to use
`.jj`-internal git repos. For example, the `std::fs::copy()` calls
started failing, which may be related to #2103. I think one problem is
that we could end up calling `merge_directories()` twice for the same
directory. This patch fixes that by deduping the paths we call with,
and makes the function assume that the output directory doesn't exist.
The main goal of this change is to enable tree-level conflict format, but it
also allows us to bulk-import commits on clone/init. I think a separate method
will help if we want to provide progress information, enable check for
.jjconflict entries under certain condition, etc.
Since git::import_refs() now depends on GitBackend type, it might be better to
remove git_repo from the function arguments.
Since e7e49527ef "git: ensure that remote branches never diverge", the last
known "refs/remotes" ref should be synced with the corresponding remote branch.
So we can always trust the branch@remote expression. We don't need "refs/tags"
lookup either since tags should have been imported by git::import_refs().
FWIW, I'm thinking of reorganizing view.git_refs() map as per-remote views.
It would be nice if we can get rid of revsets and template keywords exposing
low-level Git ref primitives.
Git doesn't have a root commit, so we should skip branches pointing to
it on export, just like we do with conflicted branches (which Git also
doesn't support).
Before this patch, the order would depend on the reason we failed to
export a ref, because we would add to the `failed_branches` list in
several different places. What's worse, when the export failed because
the branch was conflicted or had an invalid name (from Git's
perspective), it was non-deterministic because we iterated over a
HashSet. This patch fixes that by sorting at the end.
Note that we still want the `branches_to_update` map to be a
`BTreeMap` so we update branches in deterministic order. Otherwise the
error when trying to export both branches `main` and `main/sub` will
become non-deterministic.
Suppose "x::y" is the operator that defaults to "root()::visible_heads()"
respectively, "::" is identical to "all()". Since we've just changed the
behavior of "..y", ".." is now "root()..visible_heads()" meaning "~root()".
In `LockedWorkingCopy::drop()`, we panic if the caller had not called
`finish()`. IIRC, the idea was both to find bugs where we forgot to
call `finish()` and to prevent continuing with a modified
`WorkingCopy` instance. I don't think the former has been a problem in
practice. It has been a problem in practice to call `discard()` to
avoid the panic, though. To address that, we can make the `Drop`
implementation discard the changes (forcing a reload of the state if
the working copy is accessed again).
When restoring (`jj restore`) a 3-sided conflict from one tree into a
2-sided tree (or a resolved tree), we'll need to extend the size arity
of the target tree to that of the source tree. I had not considered
this case before. This patch relaxes the constraint in
`MergedTreeBuilder` to allow such cases. The additional trees are
based on empty trees with only the larger overrides in them.
Many (most?) callers of `Store::empty_tree_id()` really want a
`MergedTreeId`, so let's create a helper for that. It returns the
`Legacy` variant, which is what all current callers used. That should
be all we need since the two variants compare equal these days, and
since trees built based on the legacy variant can get promoted to the
new variant on write if the config is enabled.
I think most tests want a `MergedTree`, so this makes `create_tree()`
return that. I kept the old function as `create_single_tree()`. That's
now only used in `test_merge_trees` and `test_merged_tree`.
I also consistently imported the functions now, something I've
considered doing for a long time.
I made it simply fail on explicit fetch/import, and ignored on implicit import.
Since the error mode is predictable and less likely to occur. I don't think it
makes sense to implement warning propagation just for this.
Closes#1690.
With the already existing `MergedTree::resolve()` and all the recent
refactorings into `Merge<T>`, it's now very easy to add support for
3-way merging of `MergedTree` instances.
