As we now diff incoming git refs against our known remote branches, the problem
described in the comment no longer occurs. test_branch_forget_fetched_branch()
passes, and the inline comments in the test are still valid.
As we need to build a set of all branch names anyway, we can also put old/new
targets there. InvalidGitName is moved to caller since the diff function no
longer converts RefName to "refs/" string.
The idea is that the "remote" refs could have been "op restore"-d whereas
view.git_refs() will never be. The next commit will update known_remote_refs
to be constructed from the current remote branches.
Instead of building these lists in a single loop, we could load new git_refs
to the view first, and then build diffs of the remote refs. I considered that,
but I feel it would be a bit awkward to update refs before importing commits
to the view.
The "remote" refs are stored in BTreeMap since merging order should be stable.
As I'm going to add separate lists of changed git_refs/remote_refs, it'll
become a bit unclear which one we should check for reserved remotes. The
diff might also be reorganized as a list of (remote, name, kind, old_target,
new_target) where remote == "git" means the git-tracking branch. In this
data structure, the notion of reserved remote name would be lost.
I've added a boolean flag to the store to ensure that the migration never runs
more than once after the view gets "op restore"-d. I'll probably reorganize the
branches structure to support non-tracking branches later, but updating the
storage format in a single commit would be too involved.
If jj is downgraded, these "git" remote refs would be exported to the Git repo.
Users might have to remove them manually.
As we can set HEAD to an arbitrary ref by using .reference_symbolic(), we don't
have to manage a ref that can also be valid as a branch name.
Fixes#1495
I'll add a workaround for the root parent issue #1495 there. We can pass in
the wc parent id instead of the wc_commit object, but we might want to use
wc_commit.id() to generate a unique placeholder ref name.
If we made @git branches real .remote_targets["git"], remotely-rewritten
commits could also be pinned by the @git branches, and therefore wouldn't be
abandoned. We could exclude the "git" remote, but I don't think local commits
should be pinned by remote refs in general. If we squashed a fetched commit,
remote ref would point to a hidden commit anyway.
Spotted while porting it to per-remote views. Undone fetch/push is tricky. If
we want to detect git/jj conflicts in that scenario, we would need to track
both "known" and "current" remote targets. It's probably okay to export jj's
remote targets as we do the reverse for import_refs(), but I need to think
that a bit more.
The main goal of this change is to enable tree-level conflict format, but it
also allows us to bulk-import commits on clone/init. I think a separate method
will help if we want to provide progress information, enable check for
.jjconflict entries under certain condition, etc.
Since git::import_refs() now depends on GitBackend type, it might be better to
remove git_repo from the function arguments.
Git doesn't have a root commit, so we should skip branches pointing to
it on export, just like we do with conflicted branches (which Git also
doesn't support).
Before this patch, the order would depend on the reason we failed to
export a ref, because we would add to the `failed_branches` list in
several different places. What's worse, when the export failed because
the branch was conflicted or had an invalid name (from Git's
perspective), it was non-deterministic because we iterated over a
HashSet. This patch fixes that by sorting at the end.
Note that we still want the `branches_to_update` map to be a
`BTreeMap` so we update branches in deterministic order. Otherwise the
error when trying to export both branches `main` and `main/sub` will
become non-deterministic.
I made it simply fail on explicit fetch/import, and ignored on implicit import.
Since the error mode is predictable and less likely to occur. I don't think it
makes sense to implement warning propagation just for this.
Closes#1690.
This basically means that heads in a filtered graph appear in reverse
chronological order. Before, "jj log -r 'tags()'" in linux-stable repo would
look randomly sorted once you ran "jj debug reindex" in it.
With this change, indexing is more like breadth-first search, and BFS is
known to be bad at rendering nice graph (because branches run in parallel.)
However, we have a post process to group topological branches, so we don't
have this problem. For serialization formats like Mercurial's revlog iirc,
BFS leads to bad compression ratio, but our index isn't that kind of data.
Reindexing gets slightly slower, but I think this is negligible.

Another idea is to sort heads chronologically and run DFS-based topological
sorting. It's ad-hoc, but worked surprisingly well for my local repositories.
For repositories with lots of long-running branches, this commit will provide
more predictable result than DFS-based one.
