[RFD/WIP PATCH] rev-list: list all heads with --all

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

 



HEAD is a worktree specific sysmref, so that a repository with multiple
worktrees can have multiple HEADs, or HEADs in a worktree different from
the current worktree.

So far, "rev-parse --all" adds only the HEAD from the current worktree
to the list of refs (besides branches etc.). So, a detached HEAD from a
different checkout would be missed unless a shared ref (or current HEAD)
points to it (or descents from it). As a consequence, "git prune" can
prune detached HEADs from worktrees and leave the repo in an
inconsistent state.

Make "rev-parse --all" add the HEADs from all worktrees. This results in
a non-worktree-specific ref list amd solves the pruning problem.

This patch solves the pruning problem with worktrees, but I feel quite
uneasy about substituting the ref solving at the very heart of refs.c. So
please consider this a mere poc and a request for discussion/input
about how to do this the right way.

I'll cook up a test in proper form, but all you have to do is "worktree
add --detach new" and build a new commit on top of the detached head in
the new worktree. Compare "git prune -n" in "new" and the main worktree...

In essence, I feel the worktree interface still has to evolve a bit: I'd
rather for_each_worktree than loop myself, and if many call sites need to
be aware of multiple heads or worktrees than get_worktrees() should be
part of our init stuff, not here.
