Alternatively, we can wrap BTreeMap<String, Option<RefTarget>> to flatten
Option<&Option<..>> internally, but doing that would be tedious. It would
also be unclear if map.remove(name) should construct an absent RefTarget if
the ref doesn't exist.
Perhaps, all view.get_<kind>(name) functions can return reference, but I'm
not willing to change the interface at this point. I'll revisit this after
migrating Option<RefTarget> to new Conflict-based type.
If we migrate RefTarget to new Conflict-based type, it won't store
Conflict<CommitId>, but Conflict<Option<CommitId>>. As the Option will
be internalized, new RefTarget type will also represent an absent target.
The 'target: Option<RefTarget>' argument will be replaced with new RefTarget
type.
I've also renamed the function for consistency with the following changes.
It would be surprising if set_local_branch(name, target) could remove the
branch. I feel the name set_local_branch_target() is less confusing.
Git's HEAD ref is similar to other refs and can logically have
conflicts just like the other refs in `git_refs`. As with the other
refs, it can happen if you run concurrent commands importing two
different updates from Git. So let's treat `git_head` the same as
`git_refs` by making it an `Option<RefTarget>`.

When we export branches to Git, we didn't update our own record of
Git's refs. This frequently led to spurious conflicts in these refs
(e.g. #463). This is typically what happened:
1. Import a branch pointing to commit A from Git
2. Modify the branch in jj to point to commit B
3. Export the branch to Git
4. Update the branch in Git to point to commit C
5. Import refs from Git
In step 3, we forgot to update our record of the branch in the repo
view's `git_refs` field. That led to the import in step 5 to think
that the branch moved from A to C in Git, which conflicts with the
internal branch target of B.
This commit fixes the bug by updating the refs in the `MutableRepo`.
Closes#463.
`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.
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.
I want to make it so when we apply a repo-level change that removes a
head, we rebase descendants of that head onto the closes visible
ancestor, or onto its successor if the head has been rewritten (see
#111 for details). The view itself doesn't have enough information for
that; we need repo-level information (to figure out relationships
between commits).
The view doesn't have enough information to do the.
This patch teaches the `View` object to keep track of the checkout in
each workspace. It serializes that information into the `OpStore`. For
compatibility with existing repos, the existing field for a single
workspace's checkout is interpreted as being for the workspace called
"default".
This is just an early step towards support for multiple
workspaces. Remaining things to do:
* Record the workspace ID somewhere in `.jj/` (maybe in
`.jj/working_copy/`)
* Update existing code to use the workspace ID instead of assuming
it's always "default" as we do after this patch
* Add a way of indicating in `.jj/` that the repo lives elsewhere and
make it possible to load a repo from such workspaces
* Add a command for creating additional workspaces
* Show each workspace's checkout in log output
This patch adds a place for tracking the current `HEAD` commit in the
underlying Git repo. It updates `git::import_refs()` to record it. We
don't use it anywhere yet.
This is part of #44.
If nothing changed in a transaction, it's rarely useful to commit it,
so let's avoid that. For example, if you run `jj git import` without
changing the anything in the Git repo, we now just print "Nothing
changed.".
Now that we have native branches, we can make `jj git push` only be
about pushing a branch to a remote branch with the same name.
We may want to add back support for the more advanced case of pushing
an arbitrary commit to an arbitrary branch later, but let's get the
common case simplified first.
I've finally decided to copy Git's branching model (issue #21), except
that I'm letting the name identify the branch across
remotes. Actually, now that I think about, that makes them more like
Mercurial's "bookmarks". Each branch will record the commit it points
to locally, as well as the commits it points to on each remote (as far
as the repo knows, of course). Those records are effectively the same
thing as Git's "remote-tracking branches"; the difference is that we
consider them the same branch. Consequently, when you pull a new
branch from a remote, we'll create that branch locally.
For example, if you pull branch "main" from a remote called "origin",
that will result in a local branch called "main", and also a record of
the position on the remote, which we'll show as "main@origin" in the
CLI (not part of this commit). If you then update the branch locally
and also pull a new target for it from "origin", the local "main"
branch will be divergent. I plan to make it so that pushing "main"
will update the remote's "main" iff it was currently at "main@origin"
(i.e. like using Git's `git push --force-with-lease`).
This commit adds a place to store information about branches in the
view model. The existing git_refs field will be used as input for the
branch information. For example, we can use it to tell if
"refs/heads/main" has changed and how it has changed. We will then use
that ref diff to update our own record of the "main" branch. That will
come later. In order to let git_refs take a back seat, I've also added
tags (like Git's lightweight tags) to the model in this commit.
I haven't ruled out *also* having some more persistent type of
branches (like Mercurials branches or topics).
When there are two concurrent operations, we would resolve conflicting
updates of git refs quite arbitrarily before this change. This change
introduces a new `refs` module with a function for doing a 3-way merge
of ref targets. For example, if both sides moved a ref forward but by
different amounts, we pick the descendant-most target. If we can't
resolve it, we leave it as a conflict. That's fine to do for git refs
because they can be resolved by simply running `jj git refresh` to
import refs again (the underlying git repo is the source of truth).
As with the previous change, I'm doing this now because mostly because
it is a good stepping stone towards branch support (issue #21). We'll
soon use the same 3-way merging for updating the local branch
definition (once we add that) when a branch changes in the git repo or
on a remote.
This adds support for having conflicting git refs in the view, but we
never create conflicts yet. The `git_refs()` revset includes all "add"
sides of any conflicts. Similarly `origin/main` (for example) resolves
to all "adds" if it's conflicted (meaning that `jj co origin/main` and
many other commands will error out if `origin/main` is
conflicted). The `git_refs` template renders the reference for all
"adds" and adds a "?" as suffix for conflicted refs.
The reason I'm adding this now is not because it's high priority on
its own (it's likely extremely uncommon to run two concurrent `jj git
refresh` and *also* update refs in the underlying git repo at the same
time) but because it's a building block for the branch support I've
planned (issue #21).
The two types have become very similar so it doesn't seem that there's
any point in having two types. We should probably do the same with
`ReadonlyEvolution` and `MutableEvolution`.
I've wanted the API to look like this for a while. It seems like a
good API to me. It means that the caller won't have to reload the repo
after committing. The cost seems relatively small. It involves copying
potentially a lot of data in memory (at least the View object), but it
shouldn't involve reading from disk or any other processing. To reduce
the amount of data to copy, it may be worth switching to persistent
data types. I've also wanted to do that for the copying we do when
start a transaction.
I couldn't measure any slowdown caused by this change.
We can now finally use the commit index for filtering out ancestors
from the sets of heads.
I haven't timed the change from most of the recent work on
performance, but I did a measurement after this commit. I modified a
commit in the git.git repo's "what's cooking" branch (because that's
linear). Then I ran `jj evolve` so the 100 commits after it would get
evolved. That took ~700ms. `git rebase` of the same 100 commits took
~6s.
I also compared `jj op undo` of that `jj evolve` operation. With this
patch, that was sped up from ~6.8s to ~125ms.
`MutableRepo` has more information needed for taking fast-paths, and
it will have to make the same decision for doing incremental updates
of the evolution state anyway.
We now only call the function from `MutableRepo::merge()`. There we
pass the result to `MutableView::set_view()`, which already enforces
the invariants.
