[PATCH 3/4] reset: add option "--merge-dirty" to "git reset"

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

 



From: Stephan Beyer <s-beyer@xxxxxxx>

This option is nearly like "--merge" except that it is
a little bit safer as it seems that it tries to keep
changes in the index. On the contrary "--merge", only
keep changes in the work tree.

This will be shown in the next patch that adds some
test cases for "--merge-dirty".

In fact with "--merge-dirty", changes that are both in
the work tree and the index are kept in the work tree
after the reset (but discarded in the index). As with
"--merge", changes that are in both the work tree and
the index are discarded after the reset.

So "--merge-dirty" is probably a very bad name for
this new option. Perhaps "--merge-safe" is better?

The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project:
