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 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.
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 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.
To support tree-level conflicts, we're going to need to update the
working copy from one `MergedTree` to another. We're going need to
store multiple tree ids in the `tree_state` file. This patch gets us
closer to that by getting the diff from `MergedTree`s`, even though we
assume that they are legacy trees for now, so we can write to the
single-tree `tree_state` file.
It's currently a bit complicated to snapshot the working copy and
there's a lot of duplication in tests. This commit introduces a
function to simplify it. I made the function snapshot the working copy
and save the updated state. Some of the tests I changed previously
discarded the changes instead of saving them, but I think they all did
so because it was simpler. I left a few call sites unchanged because
they make concurrent changes.
Almost everyone calls the project "jj", and there seeems to be
consensus that we should rename the crates. I originally wanted the
crates to be called `jj` and `jj-lib`, but `jj` was already
taken. `jj-cli` is probably at least as good for it anyway.
Once we've published a 0.8.0 under the new names, we'll release 0.7.1
versions under the old names with pointers to the new crates names.
Let's acknowledge everyone's contributions by replacing "Google LLC"
in the copyright header by "The Jujutsu Authors". If I understand
correctly, it won't have any legal effect, but maybe it still helps
reduce concerns from contributors (though I haven't heard any
concerns).
Google employees can read about Google's policy at
go/releasing/contributions#copyright.
The `testutils` module should ideally not be part of the library
dependencies. Since they're used by the integration tests (and the CLI
tests), we need to move them to a separate crate to achieve that.
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).
