[WIP/PATCH 1/4] reset -p: accept "git reset -p <tree>"

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

 



When reset -p was implemented (v1.6.5-rc0~5^2~7, 2009-08-15), it
piggy-backed on an existing "git reset" check to verify that the
<rev> argument represents a valid commit.  By dropping that
check, we can use reset -p to apply changes from an arbitrary
tree; for example, from the linux-2.6 tree:

	git reset -p 2.6.11 -- Makefile

add--interactive already rejects invalid refs.

	$ git init >dev/null 2>&1; git reset -p HEAD; echo $?
	fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
	Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
	128

Unfortunate side-effect: reset -p will accept a blob for <rev>,
too.

	$ git reset -p HEAD:git.c; echo $?
	error: bad tree object HEAD:git.c
	No changes.
