"git merge" in v2.9 prevents merging unrelated histories. "git subtree split --rejoin" creates unrelated histories when creating a split repo from a raw sub-directory that did not originate from an invocation of "git subtree add". Restore the original behavior by passing --allow-unrelated-histories when merging subtrees. This ensures that the synthetic history created by "git subtree split" can be merged. Add a test to ensure that this feature works as advertised.

I preferred adding a new line (rather than modifying the existing line) so I have no problem signing off on this being a distinct patch authored by me. contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh | 1 + contrib/subtree/t/t7900-subtree.sh | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+) diff --git a/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh b/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh index 7a39b30..b567eae 100755 --- a/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh +++ b/contrib/subtree/git-subtree.sh @@ -662,6 +662,7 @@ cmd_split() debug "Merging split branch into HEAD..." latest_old=$(cache_get latest_old) git merge -s ours \ + --allow-unrelated-histories \ -m "$(rejoin_msg "$dir" $latest_old $latest_new)" \ $latest_new >&2 || exit $? fi diff --git a/contrib/subtree/t/t7900-subtree.sh b/contrib/subtree/t/t7900-subtree.sh index 431a2fe..e179b29 100755 --- a/contrib/subtree/t/t7900-subtree.sh +++ b/contrib/subtree/t/t7900-subtree.sh @@ -347,6 +347,22 @@ test_expect_success 'split sub dir/ with --rejoin' ' ' next_test +test_expect_success 'split sub dir/ with --rejoin from scratch' ' + subtree_test_create_repo "$subtree_test_count" && + test_create_commit "$subtree_test_count" main1 && + ( + cd "$subtree_test_count" && + mkdir "sub dir" && + echo file >"sub dir"/file && + git add "sub dir/file" && + git commit -m"sub dir file" && + split_hash=$(git subtree split --prefix="sub dir" --rejoin) && + git subtree split --prefix="sub dir" --rejoin && + check_equal "$(last_commit_message)" "Split '\''sub dir/'\'' into commit '\''$split_hash'\''" + ) + ' + +next_test test_expect_success 'split sub dir/ with --rejoin and --message' ' subtree_test_create_repo "$subtree_test_count" && subtree_test_create_repo "$subtree_test_count/sub proj" && -- 2.9.2.466.g8c6d1f9.dirty -- 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
