[PATCH 1/2] submodule: Add --reset-hard option for git submodule update

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

 



This patch adds a --reset-hard option for the update command to hard
reset submodule(s) to the gitlink for the corresponding submodule in
the superproject.  This feature is desired e.g. to be able to discard
recent changes in the entire hierarchy of the submodules after running

   git reset --hard PREVIOUS_STATE

in the superproject which leaves submodules in their original state,
and

   git reset --hard --recurse-submodules PREVIOUS_STATE

would result in the submodules being checked into detached HEADs.

As in the original  git reset --hard  no checks or any kind of
safe-guards against jumping into some state which was never on the
current branch is done.

must_die_on_failure is not set to  yes to mimic behavior of a update
--checkout strategy, which would leave user with a non-clean state
immediately apparent via  git status  so an informed decision/actions
could be done manually.
