This is preparation for #3292, which will use these functions. The main
goal is to merge the parts of #3292 that are likely to cause merge
conflicts with other PRs while I polish it up.
This will be reused for integration with the new `:builtin-web` diff editor in #3292.
`instructions-path_to_cleanup` is moved into DiffWorkingCopies.
DiffWorkingCopies: add instructions_path_to_cleanup
This change updates the language of `jj edit`'s help message to be
more clear as to the nature of the command. It also adds a
recommendation for a more idiomatic/safer workflow.
I just wanted to remove CommandError from parse_immutable_expression(), which
will be called from the templater, but the new error message looks also better.
Some of them will be called directly from the commit templater which shouldn't
know WorkspaceCommandHelper. All parameters are passed as function arguments
instead of having a nicer wrapper struct. That's because some resources (e.g.
repo and id prefix context) are also used for different purposes, and it seemed
uneasy to introduce high-level abstraction satisfying all the use cases.
Now you can do e.g. `jj squash --from 'foo+::' --into foo` to squash a
whole series into one commit. It doesn't need to be linear; you can
squash a bunch of siblings into another siblings, for example.
Now as default and elided node symbols come from the config, the next logical
step is to use them directly bypassing GraphLog. Note that commands like `jj op
log` and `jj obslog` do not use the elided node symbol at all.
This was proposed by @Brixy in
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/discussions/2882 a while ago. There
seems to be pretty strong consensus that it's a good idea.
I've copied the added test cases from `test_move_command.rs`, just
replacing `move` by `squash`, `--to` by `--into`, and deleting the
test of a no-arg invocation (`jj move` fails, `jj squash` does not -
it defaults to squashing into the parent).
This patch makes `jj squash` us the helper I just extracted from `jj
move`. I had a to add a few small features to it for that.
The `test_squash_command.rs` test changed in a few cases where we do a
partial squash. After this patch, we include the rebased child in the
count of rebased descendants. That seems reasonable and consistent
with partial squash/move further than 1 generation.
This is just a little step towards reusing the helper I just extracted
from `jj move`. I had to update `test_immutable_commits.rs` because it
would otherwise fail because of the merge rather than failing because
of the immutable commit.
I'm soon going to make `jj squash` accept either `-r` or
`--from/--to`, which means `-r` will then be optional. This patch
prepares for that already, since it also simplifies the code a little
(and improves it so we warn if the user does `jj squash -r @
nonexistent`).
This matches what we do for `jj squash`, whether it's a
full or partial move.
I didn't add a test since we're planning to deprecate `jj move`, and
this will soon be tested via the `jj squash` tests.
The `destination` variable we use when creating the operation log may
have been replaced earlier in the code. I think this was a regression
when I moved the setting of the description from `start_transaction()`
to `finish_transaction()` a while ago.
We haven't used custom Git commit headers for two main reasons:
1. I don't want commits created by jj to be different from any other
commits. I don't want Git projects to get annoyed by such commit
and reject them.
2. I've been concerned that tools don't know how to handle such
headers, perhaps even resulting in crashes.
The first argument doesn't apply to commits with conflicts because
such commits would never be accepted by a project whether or not they
use custom commit headers. The second argument is less relevant for
conflicted commits because most tools will be confused by such commits
anyway.
Storing conflict information in commit headers means that we can
transfer them via the regular Git wire protocol. We already include
the tree objects nested inside the root-level tree, so they will also
be transferred.
So, let's start by writing the information redundantly to the commit
header and to the existing storage. That way we can roll it back if we
realize there's a problem with using commit headers.
The `amend/unamend` aliases exist for smoothen onboarding for
Git/Mercurial users; I don't think we should recommend that users use
them, so I think it's fine if users override them as they
like. Therefore, I think they belong in the config.
This should address both use cases:
1. If from_relative_path() is directly called, the error says ".." shouldn't
be included in the (normalized) relative path.
2. If parse_fs_path() is used, the error message contains paths relative to
cwd. #3216
There's a caveat: "jj config list -Tname" will concatenate all names in a
single line. That's correct but useless. We might want some option or config
knob to complete missing "\n". This also applies to "log --no-graph".
This serves the role of the formatter in Mercurial, but the provided features
are rather restricted compared to mercurial.formatter. That's because both
implementation language "Rust" and jj's template language are statically typed.
The current implementation works well for simple commands like "config list -T",
but it might be not okay for "branch list -T". If we implement branch templating
by using the generic mechanism, the commit summary part would have to be
evaluated as a separate template:
-T 'branch_name ++ target_commit_summary' (target_commit_summary: Template)
instead of
-T 'branch_name ++ commit_summary(target_commit)' (target_commit: Commit)
where the branch template language is a superset of the commit template
language.
