When we have a conflict, we advise the user to do: git commit -c $sha1 This works fine, but is unnecessarily confusing and annoying for the user to type, when: git commit -c $the_thing_you_called_cherry_pick_with works just as well. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- I am pretty sure of the "works just as well". I couldn't think of a reason why the commit name they gave would have changed between the cherry-pick and the time they commit the resolved state. builtin-revert.c | 14 +++++++------- 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-revert.c b/builtin-revert.c index 77e4f4e..ad61249 100644 --- a/builtin-revert.c +++ b/builtin-revert.c @@ -38,6 +38,7 @@ static const char * const cherry_pick_usage[] = { static int edit, no_replay, no_commit, mainline, signoff; static enum { REVERT, CHERRY_PICK } action; static struct commit *commit; +static const char *commit_name; static int allow_rerere_auto; static const char *me; @@ -49,7 +50,6 @@ static void parse_args(int argc, const char **argv) const char * const * usage_str = action == REVERT ? revert_usage : cherry_pick_usage; unsigned char sha1[20]; - const char *arg; int noop; struct option options[] = { OPT_BOOLEAN('n', "no-commit", &no_commit, "don't automatically commit"), @@ -64,10 +64,10 @@ static void parse_args(int argc, const char **argv) if (parse_options(argc, argv, NULL, options, usage_str, 0) != 1) usage_with_options(usage_str, options); - arg = argv[0]; - if (get_sha1(arg, sha1)) - die ("Cannot find '%s'", arg); + commit_name = argv[0]; + if (get_sha1(commit_name, sha1)) + die ("Cannot find '%s'", commit_name); commit = lookup_commit_reference(sha1); if (!commit) exit(1); @@ -198,7 +198,7 @@ static void set_author_ident_env(const char *message) sha1_to_hex(commit->object.sha1)); } -static char *help_msg(const unsigned char *sha1) +static char *help_msg(const char *name) { struct strbuf helpbuf = STRBUF_INIT; char *msg = getenv("GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP"); @@ -214,7 +214,7 @@ static char *help_msg(const unsigned char *sha1) strbuf_addf(&helpbuf, " When committing, use the option '-c %s'\n" "to retain authorship and message.", - find_unique_abbrev(sha1, DEFAULT_ABBREV)); + name); } return strbuf_detach(&helpbuf, NULL); } @@ -403,7 +403,7 @@ static int revert_or_cherry_pick(int argc, const char **argv) if (commit_lock_file(&msg_file) < 0) die ("Error wrapping up %s", defmsg); fprintf(stderr, "Automatic %s failed.%s\n", - me, help_msg(commit->object.sha1)); + me, help_msg(commit_name)); rerere(allow_rerere_auto); exit(1); } -- 1.7.0.rc2.40.g33ed2.dirty -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
