Thanks. That's the bit I didn't see in MyProcess. Ok, so I'll simply return from the function when some of the run()s return false. > [...] > Hope this helps. Thanks. > P.S: Why 'git-commit --amend -F' it's explicitely forbidden? The logic for preparing the commit message seems to be incompatible in git-commit.sh for some reason and whoever wrote it fobode those flags together instead of making it compatible. In any case, the error is reported in git-commit.sh:291-296: case "$log_given" in tt*) die "Only one of -c/-C/-F/--amend can be used." ;; *tm*|*mt*) die "Option -m cannot be combined with -c/-C/-F/--amend." ;; esac And in any case the git policy is, that frontends should not be using porcelain commands. What I would really like to see is something between git-commit and git-commit-tree, that would: - run pre-commit hook - write-tree - commit-tree - update-ref - rerere - run post-commit hook But it does not exist and git-gui obviously does that manually, so I did it manually as well. Now I have to test it. The other thing that didn't work (or at least from reading the code it seems it couldn't) is commiting merges, because when commiting merge, filename arguments are forbidden on git-commit. Commiting merges will require some special handling, because you have to at least commit all files that were merged. And you can't re-create pristine index with read-tree the way normal commit does it either. Unfortunately I don't fully understand -- and remember the right commands for working with it -- the multi-stage index. -- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@xxxxxx>
