[PATCH/RFC] Add a --bouquet option to git rev-list

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

 



Add a command line option to rev-list so the command 'git rev-list --bouquet'
shows all revisions that are ancestors of refs which share history with HEAD.

I have a repository with the following structure:

      B
     /
A'--A--C
     \
      D

E'--E

Thus the command 'git merge base E A' returns nothing, as there is no common
history.  The E history contains stuff that is derived from the other history
(A, B, C, or D).  Often I find myself doing the following:

git checkout C
gitk $(include_forks) &
<View history, make changes, merges, et cetera>
git checkout E
<go back to gitk, only see history for B, C, etc>

Now the 'include_forks' command is a bash function in my .bashrc:

include_forks () 
{ 
    local head="$(git show -s --pretty=format:'%H' HEAD)";
    echo "HEAD $(git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' \
	refs/heads refs/remotes | while read ref; do \
	if test "$(git merge-base HEAD ${ref}^{commit})" != ""; \
		then echo ${ref}; fi; done)"
}

The shell thus intercepts my command and I must restart gitk to see the history
of E. 

With this patch, I can issue the command 'gitk --bouquet' and when I checkout
E, I can 'reload' in gitk and see the history of E automatically.

If there is an easier way to do this in git, please let me know.  Otherwise,
please let me know how to improve this patch.
