Hi Folks, Here is the fourth revision of a series to support locking multiple refs at the same time to update all of them consistently. The previous revisions of the series can be found at $gmane/233260, $gmane/233458, and $gmane/233647. Updates since the previous revision of the series: * Patches 1-4 are identical * Patches 5-7 no longer have ":" at the end of comments, a style I "learned" from the context of patch 5 but that I saw Junio squash out of patch 5 v2 when he queued it as 53237ae4. * Patch 7 has a re-organized parser and now defines a -z format for stdin that terminates arguments with NUL and lines with LF NUL: ... <ref> NUL <newvalue> NUL [ <oldvalue> NUL ] LF NUL * Patch 8 now has test cases for -z mode and updated error cases for the re-organized parser. Note to maintainer: * Patch 4 needs to be re-queued to replace c7c80f49 due to the tweak suggested in $gmane/233521 and made in v3 and kept in v4. Thanks, -Brad Brad King (8): reset: rename update_refs to reset_refs refs: report ref type from lock_any_ref_for_update refs: factor update_ref steps into helpers refs: factor delete_ref loose ref step into a helper refs: add function to repack without multiple refs refs: add update_refs for multiple simultaneous updates update-ref: support multiple simultaneous updates update-ref: add test cases covering --stdin signature Documentation/git-update-ref.txt | 22 +- branch.c | 2 +- builtin/commit.c | 2 +- builtin/fetch.c | 3 +- builtin/receive-pack.c | 3 +- builtin/reflog.c | 2 +- builtin/replace.c | 2 +- builtin/reset.c | 4 +- builtin/tag.c | 2 +- builtin/update-ref.c | 144 ++++++++++++- fast-import.c | 2 +- refs.c | 195 ++++++++++++++--- refs.h | 22 +- sequencer.c | 3 +- t/t1400-update-ref.sh | 445 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 15 files changed, 812 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) -- 1.8.4.rc3 -- 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
