[PATCH v3 12/14] restore-files: take tree-ish from --from option instead

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

 



This is another departure from 'git checkout' syntax, which uses -- to
separate ref and pathspec. The observation is restore-files (or "git
checkout ,, <pathspec>") is most often used to restore some files from
the index. If this is correct, we can simplify it by taking a way the
ref, so that we can write

    git restore-files some-file

without worrying about some-file being a ref and whether we need to do

    git restore-files -- some-file

for safety. If the source of the restore comes from a tree, it will be
in the form of an option with value, e.g.

    git restore-files --from=this-tree some-file

This is of course longer to type than using "--". But hopefully it
will not be used as often, and it is clearly easier to understand.

dwim_new_local_branch is no longer set (or unset) in cmd_restore_files()
because it's irrelevant because we don't really care about dwim-ing.
With accept_ref being unset, dwim can't happen.
