This moves the logic for handling the root commit when writing commits
from `CommitBuilder` into the individual backends. It always bothered
me a bit that the `commit::Commit` wrapper had a different idea of the
number of parents than the wrapped `backend::Commit` had.
With this change, the `LocalBackend` will now write the root commit in
the list of parents if it's there in the argument to
`write_commit()`. Note that root commit itself won't be written. The
main argument for not writing it is that we can then keep the fake
all-zeros hash for it. One argument for writing it, if we were to do
so, is that it would make the set of written objects consistent, so
any future processing of them (such as GC) doesn't have to know to
ignore the root commit in the list of parents.
We still treat the two backends the same, so the user won't be allowed
to create merges including the root commit even when using the
`LocalBackend`.
`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.
This will be a basic building block of 'jj log PATH'. The implementation
is naive, but works fine for small repos like jj. For mid-size repos,
there would be various areas which need to be optimized.
The `CommitBuilder::store` field is used only in
`CommitBuilder::write_to_repo()`, but we can easily get access to the
`Store` from the `repo` argument there, so let's remove the field.
We don't even have any settings that affect the repo, so there's no
point in passing the settings. I think this was a leftover from before
we separated out the "workspace" concept; now we no longer create a
working-copy commit when we initialize a repo (we do that when we
attach the workspace).
This introduces a `connected(x)` function, which is simply the same as
`x:x`. It's occasionally useful if `x` is a long expression. It's also
useful as a building block for `root(x)` (coming soon).
Most tests need a repo but don't need a working copy. Let's have a
function for setting up a test repo. But first, let's free up the name
`init_repo()` by renaming it to `init_workspace()` (which is also more
accurate).
Because we record each workspace's checkout in the repo view, we can
-- unlike other VCSs -- let the user refer to any workspace's checkout
in revsets. This patch adds syntax for that, so you can show the
contents of the checkout in workspace "foo" with `jj show foo@`. That
won't automatically commit that workspace's working copy, however.
The recent e5dd93cbf7, whose description says "cleanup: make Vec
inside CommitId etc. non-public", made all ID types in the `backend`
module *except* for `CommitId` non-public :P This patch makes
If you rewrite a commit that's also available on some remote, you'll
currently see both the old version and the new version in the view,
which means they're divergent. They're not logically divergent (the
rewritten version should replace the old version), so this is a UX
bug. I think it indicates that the set of current heads should be
redefined to be the *desired* heads. That's also what I had suspected
in the TODO removed by this change. I think another indication that
we should hide the old heads even if they have e.g. a remote branch
pointing to them is that we don't want them to be rebased if we
rewrite an ancestor.
So that's what I decided to do: let the view's heads be the desired
heads. The user can still define revsets for showing non-current
commits pointed to by e.g. remote branches.
With this change, you can do e.g. `heads(remote_branches())`. That
should currently be the same as `public_heads()`, except that we don't
yet remove public heads when remote branches have been updated. Having
this support should be generally useful, but I may use it in the short
term specifically for depending less on the public heads, until I get
around to keeping them up to date.
Now that we remove hidden heads whenever a transaction commits,
`non_obsolete_heads()` should always be the same as `all_heads()`,
except during a transaction. I don't think we depend on the difference
even during a transaction. Let's simplify a bit by removing the revset
function `all_heads()` and renaming `non_obsolete_heads()` to
`heads()`. This is part of issue #32.
There were some tests that discarded a transaction only because it
used to be easier to do that than to commit and reload the repo. We
get the new repo back when we commit the transaction these days, so
now it's often easier to commit the transaction instead.
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).
This patch makes it so we attempt to resolve a symbol as the
non-obsolete commits in a change id if all other resolutions
fail.
This addresses issue #15. I decided to not require any operator for
looking up by change id. I want to make it as easy as possible to use
change ids instead of commit ids to see how well it works to interact
mostly with change ids instead of commit ids (I'll try to test that by
using it myself).
I'd like to experiment with mostly using change ids instead of commit
ids on the CLI. Then it needs to be easy to refer to the non-obsolete
commits in a change, which means we probably don't want to require any
operators (i.e. a plain change id should resolve to the non-obsolete
commits in the change). This patch prepares for letting a change id
resolve to (possibly) many commits.
This adds a `git_refs()` revset that includes all commits pointed to
by a git ref. It's not very useful yet because the graph log doesn't
use the right type of edges for non-contiguous commits.
This lets you use the same operator as we currently have for ancestors
and descendants (`,,`) to also specify a DAG range. That's what
Mercurial uses the `::` operator for and what Git has `git log
--ancestry-path` for.
I really liked the idea of having the operators for parents and
ancestors (etc.) look similar, but that turned out to be problematic
when we want to add an infix operator for a DAG range (hg's `::`
revset operator and git's `--ancestry-path` flag). Let's say we chose
`:*:` as the operator. Part of the problem is how to parse `foo:*:bar`
without eagerly parsing the `foo:`. It would also be nicer to use
exactly the same operator as prefix, postfix, and infix. Since the
"parents" operator can be repeated, we can't have it be just `:` and
the "ancestors" operator be `::`. We could make the "ancestors"
operator be something like `*:*` (or anything symmetric with the `:`
symbol on the inside). However, at that point, the operator is getting
ugly and hard to type. Another option would be to use `:` for
ancestors and `::` for parents, but that is counterintuitive and get
annoying if you want to repeat it. So it seems that the best option is
to simply pick different symbols for parents/children and
ancestors/descendants/range.
This patch changes the ancestors/descendants operators to both be
`,,`. I'm not at all attached to that particular symbol. I suspect
we'll change it later.
This adds `children(<set>)` and `<set>:` for the children of the given
set, and `descendants(<set>)` and `<set>:*` for the descendants of the
given set. The children and descendants are filtered to be among
ancestors of non-obsolete commits. I haven't added a way of overriding
that yet.
