This reverts a01d0bf7738f "cli: resolve: leave executable bit unchanged when
using external tool", and updates handling of resolved content.
Fixes#6250
As Martin suggested, "we should instead make it an error to try to resolve the
content-level conflict before resolving the executable-bit-level conflict. I
think we should do the same when merging copy records."
https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/pull/6288#pullrequestreview-2751367755
try_materialize_file_conflict_value() and to_file_merge() shouldn't fail because
of exec bit changes. And error.to_string() shouldn't include trailing newline.
These merge tools didn't work properly on conflicted trees with more
than two sides since they didn't simplify the conflict before resolving.
The new implementation is more similar to how external merge tools are
executed, which should give a more consistent behavior.
I'm going to add "[EOF]" marker to test that command output is terminated by
newline char. This patch ensures that callers who expect a raw output string
would never be affected by any normalization passes.
Some common normalization functions are extracted as CommandOutputString
methods.
With this change a warning is shown if the user does not explicitly specify the target revision, but the behavior is unchanged (it still defaults to the working copy).
In the future the warning will be turned into an error. In other words, it will be required to specify target revision.
The bulk of the changes here are to prepare tests for the upcoming change, to make the transition easier.

If many files are conflicted, it would be nice to be able to resolve all
conflicts at once without having to run `jj resolve` multiple times.
This is especially nice for merge tools which try to automatically
resolve conflicts without user input, but it is also good for regular
merge editors like VS Code.
This change makes the behavior of `jj resolve` more consistent with
other commands which accept filesets since it will use the entire
fileset instead of picking an arbitrary file from the fileset.
Since we don't support passing directories to merge tools yet, the
current implementation just calls the merge tool repeatedly in a loop
until every file is resolved, or until an error occurs. If an error
occurs after successfully resolving at least one file, the transaction
is committed with all of the successful changes before returning the
error. This means the user can just close the editor at any point to
cancel resolution on all remaining files.
Git supports passing the conflict marker length to merge drivers using
"%L". It would be useful if we also had a way to pass the marker length
to merge tools, since it would allow Git merge drivers to be used with
`jj resolve` in more cases. Without this variable, any merge tool that
parses or generates conflict markers could fail on files which require
conflict markers longer than 7 characters.
https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes#_defining_a_custom_merge_driver
Currently, `jj resolve` always sets the file to be non-executable
whenever a conflict is fully resolved. This is confusing, because it can
cause the executable bit to be lost even if every side agrees that the
file is executable.
Some Git merge drivers can partially resolve conflicts, leaving some
conflict markers in the output file. In that case, they exit with a code
between 1 and 127 to indicate that there was a conflict remaining in the
file (since Git uses a shell to run the merge drivers, and shells often
use exit codes above 127 for special meanings such as exiting due to a
signal):
https://git-scm.com/docs/gitattributes#_defining_a_custom_merge_driver
We should support this convention as well, since it will allow many Git
merge drivers to be used with Jujutsu, but we don't run our merge tools
through a shell, so there is no reason to treat exit codes 1 through 127
specially. Instead, we let the user specify which exact exit codes
should indicate conflicts. This is also better for cross-platform
support, since Windows may use different exit codes than Linux for
instance.
I left the "merge-tool-edits-conflict-markers" option unchanged,
since removing it would likely break some existing configurations. It
also seems like it could be useful to have a merge tool use the default
conflict markers instead of requiring the conflict marker style to
always be set for the merge tool (e.g. if a merge tool allows the user
to manually edit the conflicts).
* See #4239 for details.
* For now, update working copy before reporting repo changes, so that
potential errors in reporting changes don't leave the repo in a stale
state.
Fixes: #4239
Jujutsu's branches do not behave like Git branches, which is a major
hurdle for people adopting it from Git. They rather behave like
Mercurial's (hg) bookmarks.
We've had multiple discussions about it in the last ~1.5 years about this rename in the Discord,
where multiple people agreed that this _false_ familiarity does not help anyone. Initially we were
reluctant to do it but overtime, more and more users agreed that `bookmark` was a better for name
the current mechanism. This may be hard break for current `jj branch` users, but it will immensly
help Jujutsu's future, by defining it as our first own term. The `[experimental-moving-branches]`
config option is currently left alone, to force not another large config update for
users, since the last time this happened was when `jj log -T show` was removed, which immediately
resulted in breaking users and introduced soft deprecations.
This name change will also make it easier to introduce Topics (#3402) as _topological branches_
with a easier model.
This was mostly done via LSP, ripgrep and sed and a whole bunch of manual changes either from
me being lazy or thankfully pointed out by reviewers.
This follows up on https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/pull/3459 and adds a
label to the closing delimeter of each conflict, e.g. "Conflict 1 of 3
ends".
I didn't initially put any label at the ending delimeter since the
starting delimeter is already marked with "Conflict 1 of 3". However,
I'm now realizing that when I resolve conflicts, I usually go from top
to bottom. The first thing I do is delete the starting conflict
delimeter. It is when I get to the *end* of the conflict that I wonder
whether there are any more conflicts left in the file.
