[PATCH 6/6] merge-recursive: add -Xrenormalize option

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

 



This adds a -Xrenormalize option to override the
merge.renormalize configuration.  There is no way to override
it in the negative yet, but hopefully this suggests how.

The good part: this destroys the global merge_renormalize
variable.

The bad part: merge.renormalize is still not honored for
most commands.  And it reveals lots of places that -X has not
been plumbed in.

There you have it.  As I said, this is pretty rough.  Places I would
be happy to see this go:

 - add tests and documentation
 - -Xno-renormalize to override [merge] renormalize in the negative
 - checkout -X and rerere -X

I probably will not have time to work on this topic again for a while,
so I would be very happy if someone takes ideas from it and takes it
somewhere else before I get a chance.  If there are just minor
cleanups to do, I can maintain this series for a short while, though.

Thoughts?
