[RFC/PATCH 2/2] Teach commit to handle CHERRY_HEAD automatically

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

 



Now that cherry-pick records the original commit id in CHERRY_HEAD
following a conflict, we can teach commit to handle it automatically.

The primary difference between this and 'commit -c CHERRY_HEAD'
(besides saving the user some typing) is that we take only the
authorship from CHERRY_HEAD, while taking the commit message
from MERGE_MSG (which contains the list of conflicts as well
as cherry-pick -x's annotation, if -x was used).

--reset-author can be used to reset authorship.
---
There are several subtle interactions between the sundry commit options that
make my head hurt. I did my best to integrate what happens when there is
a CHERRY_HEAD, but I'm really not sure how CHERRY_HEAD ought to interact
with things like --squash and --fixup, or the message specifying options.

For example, it should probably be an error to use --squash/--fixup when
there's a CHERRY_HEAD, but then again, it should probably be an error to
use those options when there's a MERGE_HEAD (but it's not).

OTOH, it seems valid to specify a commit message manually, so I allow that.
