This patch also extracts format_detailed_signature() function to deduplicate
the "show" template bits.
The added placeholder templates aren't labeled as "empty". If needed, I think
the whole template can be labeled as "empty" (or "empty_commit") just like
"working_copy".
Closes#2112
This introduces a `MergedTreeBuilder` type, which takes a set of base
trees and overrides. The idea is that it will be able to write
multiple trees or a legacy tree. For now, it's only able to write
legacy trees. To show that it works, the working copy's snaphotting
code has been updated to use it.
We currently represent the root tree id in a commit by `Merge<TreeId>`
plus a boolean `uses_tree_conflict_format`. It's better to use an enum
for that. That makes it harder to forget to check which type of tree
it is, and it makes it impossible to store a legacy tree with multiple
ids (as we could with `uses_tree_conflict_format=false`,
`root_tree=Merge::new(...)`).
Maybe more importantly, we're also going to want to pass around this
information in most places where we currently pass a single `TreeId`,
and passing two separate values would be annoying.
Unlike the git backend, we don't need to support path-level conflicts
for existing repos because we don't care about compatibility with
existing repos using the native backend. However, we still need to
support both formats until all code paths are able to handle
tree-level conflicts.
As #2165 showed, when diffing two `MergedTree::Legacy` variants (or
one of each variant) and re recurse into a subtree, we need to treat
that as a legacy tree too, so we expand `TreeValue::Conflict`s found
in the diff.
This converts `TreeDiffIterator::tree()` and
`TreeDiffIterator::single_tree()` into associated functions and passes
in the `&MergedTree` into the former. This prepares for fixing #2165,
and it removes the need for the `TreeDiffIterator::store` field.
This is what I proposed in #2095. @ is now an operator to concatenate symbols.
Unlike the other operators, lhs/rhs of @ is not a target of alias substitution.
'x' in 'x@y' doesn't look like a named variable, though it's technically
possible to allow definition of an alias expanded to a symbol of specific remote
or vice versa. This will probably apply to the kind:pattern syntax, where
aliases are expanded due to the current implementation restriction. I've added
a TODO comment about that.
I'm going to change the parsing rule of name@remote, and @ will no longer be
included in a symbol identifier. I could add a separate test for remote symbols,
but I think it's better to write tests that cover both "x"@"y" and "x@y" paths.
`itertools::interleave()` does exactly what we want for
`Merge::iter()`. I had just not thought to look for it
before. Hopefully it's not noticeably slow.
An alternative name for it would be `arity()`, but `num_sides()`
probably more clearly says that it's not about the number of removes
or the total number of terms.
We were using `current_tree()` only for an assertion where we were
walking its entries. Now that `MergedTree` supports that, we can
replace `current_tree()` by `current_merged_tree()`.
There's more work needed before the working copy can fully work with
tree-level conflicts. We still need to be able to store multiple tree
ids in the `tree_state` file, and we need to be able to create
multiple trees instead of writing conflict objects to the backend.
I think this is less surprising than falling back to the default length.
i64-to-usize conversion can also overflow on 32 bit environment, but I'm not
bothered to handle overflow scenario.
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.
If we're going to be able to replace most instances of `Tree` by
`MergedTree`, we'll need to be able to diff two `MergedTree`s. This
implements support for that. The implementation copies a lot from the
diff iterator we have for `Tree`. I suspect we should be able to reuse
some of the code by introducing some traits that can then be
implemented by both `Tree` and `MergedTree`. I've left a TODO about
that.
When we do an update between two `MergedTree` instances, we'll get
diffs between two `Merge<Option<TreeValue>>`. This commit prepares for
that by changing the type of the `before` and `after` arguments we
pass into the closure in `update()`.
I think it's a little easier to follow if we don't update the stats in
the large callback. It also reduces the risk of forgetting to update
the stats in some case (like in the exec-bit-optimization case I just
removed).
When updating the working copy from one tree to another, if only the
executable bit has changed between the two trees, we set the
executable bit on the file without touching its contents. The
optimization probably gets used quite rarely. Maybe it's even so
rarely that it's a pessimization overall. Perhaps its value lies more
in that we avoid updating the file's mtime unnecessarily. Either way,
I'm about to change this code to use `Merge<Option<TreeValue>>` and
that will make this block more complex. I don't think it's worth the
complexity even it provides some small benefit sometimes.
This allows negative numbers, which also means functions which took numbers can now take negative numbers
Luckily, they all already handled this exactly as expected.
Many of the `TreeBuilder` users have an `Option<TreeValue>` and call
either `set()` or `remove()` or the builder depending on whether the
value is present. Let's centralize this logic in a new
`TreeBuilder::set_or_remove()`.
One of the error types that I later created embedded `BackendError`, but `clippy` complained that the size of the type was too large. This helps address that.
