Although they are not finished, it may be useful to give some context
to current threads to publish a snapshot of what I'm working on, so
here it is.
1/5 Move identification of parent branch's remote def up into stack class.
Mostly code reorg.
2/5 Allows extraction of information about remotes.
Introduces a handful of functions to get informations about remotes in
the repository. Makes use of remote.<branch>.fetch multi-valued
config entry.
3/5 Basic support for keeping a ref to the parent branch.
Currently relies on the failed assumption that config.set() does what
it sounds, so rely instead on a rewritten config.py.
That's why I'd rather rewrite it rapidly without a dictionnary, at
least as a first step - we can make the implementation better
afterwards, but first make it work. Indeed I was originally only
working on the 5th patch of this stack, and all this is already a bit
beyond of what I was envisonning...
4/5 Have 'stg branch --create' record parent information.
Putting this all together. Would also need to do something similar in
'stg clone' and possibly other places, so some code surely needs to be
factorized.
5/5 Make 'stg pull' use git-fetch and not git-pull.
Unfinished. Git-fetch takes care of using the remote information.
Still have to use the previous work to find out the parent branch name
to rebase onto.
Best regards,
