[PATCHv3 5/7] fast-export: Add a --tag-of-filtered-object option for newly dangling tags

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

When providing a list of paths to limit what is exported, the object that
a tag points to can be filtered out entirely.  This new switch allows
the user to specify what should happen to the tag in such a case.  The
default action, 'abort' will exit with an error message.  With 'drop', the
tag will simply be omitted from the output.  With 'rewrite', if the object
tagged was a commit, the tag will be modified to tag an alternate commit.
The alternate commit is determined by treating the original commit as the
"parent" of the tag and then using the parent rewriting algorithm of the
revision traversal machinery (related to the "--parents" option of "git
rev-list")

Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

Since the last series, this patch was changed to simply copy the
relevant code from rewrite_one() rather than exporting that function
out of revision.c, as requested by Junio.  The commit message was also
clarified a bit.
