I realized only recently that we can try to parse conflict markers in
files and leave them as conflicted if they haven't changed. If they
have changed and some conflict markers have been removed, we can even
update the conflict with that partial resolution.
This change teaches the working copy to write conflicts to the working
copy. It used to expect that the caller had already updated the tree
by materializing conflicts. With this change, we also start parsing
the conflict markers and leave the conflicts unresolved in the working
copy if the conflict markers remain.
There are some cases that we don't handle yet. For example, we don't
even try to set the executable bit correctly when we write
conflicts. OTOH, we didn't do that even before this change.
We still never actually write conflicts to the working copy (outside
of tests) because we currently materialize conflicts in
`MutRepo::check_out()`. I'll change that next.
On Windows, we preserve the executable bit. I plan to also teach the
working copy to preserve conflict state. This refactoring prepares for
that by simplifying how we preserve parts of the current file state.
We have had support for ignores via `.gitignore` files since
3b326a942c91, and we haven't had the problem with the temporary
`.git/` directory created by libgit2 since 88f7f4732bb6.
Git doesn't want `.git` entries in its trees, so at least when using
the Git backend, we need to ignore such paths. Let's just ignore
`.git` paths regardless of backend to keep it simple.
Closes#24.
The auto-rebasing of descendants doesn't work if you have an open
commit checked out, which means that you may still end up with orphans
in that case (though that's usually a short-lived problem since they
get rebased when you close the commit). I'm also about to make
branches update to successors, but that also doesn't work when the
branch is on a working copy commit that gets rewritten. To fix this
problem, I've decided to let the caller of `WorkingCopy::commit()`
responsible for the transaction.
I expect that some of the code that this change moves from the lib
crate to the cli crate will later move back into the lib crate in some
form.
Unlike the other places I fixed in 134940d2bb05, the calls in
`working_copy.rs` should not simply use an existing file if the target
file was open. They should probably try again instead, but I'll leave
that for later.
On Windows, it seems that you can't rename a file if the target file
is open (Stebalien/tempfile#131). I think that's the reason for our
failing tests on Windows. This patch adds a simple wrapper around
`NamedTempFile::persist()` that returns the existing file instead of
failing, if there is one.
This change teaches `Tree::diff()` to filter by a matcher. It only
filters the result so far; it does not restrict the tree walk to what
`Matcher::visit()` says is necessary yet. It also doesn't teach the
CLI to create a matcher and pass it in.
I had initially hoped that the type-safety provided by the separate
`FileRepoPath` and `DirRepoPath` types would help prevent bugs. I'm
not sure if it has prevented any bugs so far. It has turned out that
there are more cases than I had hoped where it's unknown whether a
path is for a directory or a file. One such example is for the path of
a conflict. Since it can be conflict between a directory and a file,
it doesn't make sense to use either. Instead we end up with quite a
bit of conversion between the types. I feel like they are not worth
the extra complexity. This patch therefore starts simplifying it by
replacing uses of `FileRepoPath` by `RepoPath`. `DirRepoPath` is a
little more complicated because its string form ends with a '/'. I'll
address that in separate patches.
This makes the workging copy walk skip an entire ignored directory if
there are no negative patterns later in the ignore file. That speeds
up `jj st` in this repo with ~13k files in `target/` from ~100 ms to
~25 ms (6.0dB). This closes issue #8.
This is to address issue #8. I haven't added the optimization to avoid
walking all the files in `target/` yet. Even so, this patch still
speeds up `jj st` in this repo, with ~13k files in `target/`, from
~320 ms to ~100 ms (-5.1dB). The time actually checking if paths match
gitignores seems to go down from 116 ms to 6 ms. I think that's mostly
because libgit2 has to look for `.gitignore` files in every parent
directory every time we ask it about a file, while the rewritten code
looks for a `.gitignore` file only when visiting a new directory.
I've wanted the API to look like this for a while. It seems like a
good API to me. It means that the caller won't have to reload the repo
after committing. The cost seems relatively small. It involves copying
potentially a lot of data in memory (at least the View object), but it
shouldn't involve reading from disk or any other processing. To reduce
the amount of data to copy, it may be worth switching to persistent
data types. I've also wanted to do that for the copying we do when
start a transaction.
I couldn't measure any slowdown caused by this change.
This is yet another step towards making it easy to propagate
`BrokenPipe` errors. The `jj diff` code (naturally) diffs two trees
and prints the diffs. If the printing fails, we shouldn't just crash
like we do today.
The new code is probably slower since it does more copying (the
callback got references to the `FileRepoPath` and `TreeValue`). I hope
that won't make a noticeable difference. At least `jj diff -r
334afbc76fbd --summary` didn't seem to get measurably slower.
I just changed my `~/.gitignore` and some tests started failing
because the working copy respects the user's `~/.gitignore`. We should
probably not depend on `$HOME` in the library crate. For now, this
patch just makes sure we set it to an arbitrary directory in the tests
where it matters.
I only noticed that there was a newer version when running `cargo
install --path .`, which resulted in warnings about deprecated
functions. There's no other reason I'm aware of to upgrade now.
TreeState::write_tree leaves a ".git" file in the working copy. This is
undesirable but more problematic on Windows - The second time
TreeState::write_tree would panic because Repository::init_opts will fail
with a Permission Denied error.
This seems to be a libgit2 defect. But for now let's just remove ".git"
automatically. This makes `cargo test --test smoke_test` pass on Windows.
Evolution needs to have fast access to the predecessors. This change
adds that information to the commit index.
Evolution also needs fast access to the change id and the bit saying
whether a commit is pruned. We'll add those soon.
Some tests changed because they previously added commits with
predecessors that were not indexed, which is no longer allowed from
this change. (We'll probably eventually want to allow that again, so
that the user can prune predecessors they no longer care about from
the repo.)
Windows doesn't support recording the executable bit in the file
system. Before this commit, the code for reading and writing the
executable wouldn't even compile on Windows. This commit at least
makes it so we preserve whatever bit has been recorded in the repo.
At least I hope that's what it does -- I don't have access to a
Windows machine right now.
