[RFC PATCH] short status: improve reporting for submodule changes

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

 



While we already have a porcelain2 layer for git-status, that is accurate
for submodules, users still like the way they are are used to of
'status -s'.

As a submodule has more state than a file potentially, we'll look at all
cases:

   ------ new submodule commits
 /  ----- modified files
 | /   -- untracked files
 | |  /
 | | |   current / proposed reporting
 0 0 0     "  "     "  "
 0 0 1     " M"     " ?"
 0 1 0     " M"     " m"
 0 1 1     " M"     " m"
 1 0 0     " M"     " M"
 1 0 1     " M"     " M"
 1 1 0     " M"     " M"
 1 1 1     " M"     " M"

So when there is no new commits in the submodule, we'd want to tell
what actually happend to the submodule. The lower case 'm' indicates
to the user that there is need to give a --recurse-submodules option
for e.g. adding or committing these changes. The " ?" also differentiates
an untracked file in the submodule from a regular untracked file.

While making these changes, we need to make sure to not break porcelain
level 1, which uses the same code as the short printing function.
