If the existing git repo contains local and remote branches of the same name,
one of the remote branches is probably a tracking remote branch. Let's show
a hint how to set up tracking branches. The tracking state could be derived
from .git/config, but doing that automatically might cause another issue like
#1862, which could have been mitigated by git.auto-local-branch = false.
Repeating these is a no-op. This allows:
```shell
jj new -r a -r b # Equivalent to jj new a b
jj new --before a --before b # Equivalent to jj new a b --before
```
I keep typing the latter and getting an annoying error.
Per discussion in https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/discussions/2555. I'm
okay with either way, but it's confusing if we had "branch create" and
"branch set" and both of these could create a new branch.
Renamed `description_template_for_commit` to
`description_template_for_describe` since it's only used in
`cmd_describe`.
Renamed `description_template_for_cmd_split` to
`description_template_for_commit` and modified to accomodate empty
`intro` argument.
Fixes#2439.
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.
Summary: A natural extension of the existing support, as suggested by Scott
Olson. Closes#2496.

My gut feeling is that gitoxide aims to be more transparent than libgit2. We'll
need to know more about the underlying Git data model.
Random comments on gix API:
* gix::Repository provides API similar to git2::Repository, but has less
"convenient" functions. For example, we need to use .find_object() +
.try_to/into_<kind>() instead of .find_<kind>().
* gix::Object, Blob, etc. own raw data as bytes. gix::object and gix::objs
types provide high-level views on such data.
* Tree building is pretty low-level compared to git2.
* gix leverages bstr (i.e. bytes) extensively.
It's probably not difficult to migrate git::import/export_refs(). It might
help eliminate the startup overhead of libssl initialization. The gix-based
GitBackend appears to be a bit faster, but that wouldn't practically matter.
#2316
Like "jj log PATHS...", unmatched name isn't an error. I don't think
"jj branch list glob:'push-*'" should fail just because there are no in-flight
PR branches.
Makes sure that, at the point the commit summary for the new commit is written,
the original commit that is being rewritten is already abandoned. Otherwise,
once we show divergent change ids (in a subsequent commit) in the short commit
template, the commits would be shown as divergent.
This also has an effect on whether branches are displayed next to the commit;
the changes in test_resotre_command happen because, now, the branch is properly
propagated to the restored commit before its summary is displayed.
test_templater_alias(), test_templater_alias_override(), and
test_templater_bad_alias_decl() aren't moved since they also test config loading
and error formatting. The first test in test_templater_parse_error() is left for
the same reason. test_templater_upper_lower() depends on the commit templater.
I don't think many of the tests in test_templater.rs should use "jj log" command
as they check very specific template syntax and function behaviors. Let's move
them to in-module tests. We could add a separate test file, but we would have
to export a couple of templater macros.
test_templater_timestamp_method() is migrated as example.
Since "jj git fetch --branch" supports glob patterns, users would expect that
"jj git push --branch glob:.." also works.
The error handling bits are copied from "branch" sub commands. We might want to
extract it to a common helper function, but I haven't figured out a reasonable
boundary point yet.
AFAICT, all callers of `Merge::to_file_merge()` are already well
prepared for working with executable files. It's called from these
places:
* `local_working_copy.rs`: Materialized conflicts are correctly
updated using `Merge::with_new_file_ids()`.
* `merge_tools/`: Same as above.
* `cmd_cat()`: We already ignore the executable bit when we print
non-conflicted files, so it makes sense to also ignore it for
conflicted files.
* `git_diff_part()`: We print all conflicts with mode "100644" (the
mode for regular files). Maybe it's best to use "100755" for
conflicts that are unambiguously executable, or maybe it's better to
use a fake mode like "000000" for all conflicts. Either way, the
current behavior seems fine.
* `diff_content()`: We use the diff content in various diff
formats. We could add more detail about the executable bits in some
of them, but I think the current output is fine. For example,
instead of our current "Created conflict in my-file", we could say
"Created conflict in executable file my-file" or "Created conflict
in ambiguously executable file my-file". That's getting verbose,
though.
So, I think all we need to do is to make `Merge::to_file_merge()` not
require its inputs to be non-executable.
Closes#1279.
I'm about to make conflicts also get materialized in executable
files. We'll lose some of the test coverage in `test_chmod_command.rs`
then, because the those tests rely on the materialized content to
describe the executable bits. So this commit adds a debug command for
printing tree values and uses that in the tests.
If we add glob support, users will probably want to do something like
'jj branch untrack glob:"*@origin"'. It would be annoying if the command
failed just because one of the remote branches has already been untracked.
Since branch tracking/untracking is idempotent, it's safe to continue in
those cases.
The parse rule is lax compared to revset. We could require the pattern to be
quoted, but that would mean glob patterns have to be quoted like 'glob:"foo*"'.
