[PATCH v2 00/20] rid git-checkout of too-intimate knowledge of new worktree

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

 



This is v2 of [1] which rids git-checkout of the need to have
specialized knowledge that it's operating in a newly created linked
worktree, and decouples git-worktree from git-checkout. Thanks to Duy
and Junio for reviews.

A v1 to v2 interdiff is included below.

Changes since v1:

* patch 03/20: relocate from caller to callee a comment explaining why
  check_linked_checkout() resolves HEAD manually[2]

* patch 06/20 (new): drop "/.git" from "'blorp' already checked out at
  '/foo/bar/.git'" diagnostic[3]

* patch 07/20 & 08/20 (new): teach checked_linked_checkout() about
  symbolic-link HEAD[2] (to augment its existing symref-style HEAD
  knowledge)

* patch 14/20 (new): take advantage of 'struct child_process.env' to
  make it obvious that assigned environment variables are intended for
  child process invocations[2]

* patch 16/20: side-step potential problem with future pluggable
  backends answering ref_exists() incorrectly from cached information
  after we've invoked git-branch behind their backs[4,5], and add a few
  in-code comments explaining the logic

* reword several commit messages to avoid stressing "git reset --hard"
  as endgame, and instead emphasize removal of specialized worktree
  creation knowledge from git-checkout[2], and resolve conflation of new
  branch creation, setting of worktree HEAD, and new worktree
  population.
