[PATCH v2 0/4] Let the builtin rebase call the git am command directly

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

 



Especially on Windows, where Unix shell scripting is a foreign endeavor, and
an expensive one at that, we really want to avoid running through the Bash.

This not only makes everything faster, but also more robust, as the Bash we
use on Windows relies on a derivative of the Cygwin runtime, which in turn
has to jump through a couple of hoops that are sometimes a little too tricky
to make things work. Read: the less we rely on Unix shell scripting, the
more likely Windows users will be able to enjoy our software.

Changes since v1:

 * Rebased on top of master to avoid merge conflicts.
 * Adjusted the commit message talking about double entries, to clarify that
   it talks about HEAD's reflog.
 * Replaced a misleading action parameter "checkout" for the reset_head() 
   function by the empty string: we do not check out here, we just update
   the refs, and certainly do not want any checkout functionality (such as
   hooks) to be involved.
 * Reused a just-prepared refs_only variable instead of repeating the value
   assigned to it.
 * Fixed a stale comment about the shell variable "$upstream" (which should
   have been negated to begin with).
 * Fixed error messages when files could not be opened.

Johannes Schindelin (4):
  rebase: move `reset_head()` into a better spot
  rebase: avoid double reflog entry when switching branches
  rebase: teach `reset_head()` to optionally skip the worktree
  built-in rebase: call `git am` directly
