Changes in v2
- get_series returns guarded series, get_full_series gives
full series. Most commands want the guarded series anyway.
- more options for guilt-select (better hg compatability)
- rename guilt-guards to guilt-guard (better hg compatability)
- a couple bug fixes
- an extra patch that adds a test suite
This series adds Mercurial Queues-like guards to guilt. It allows you
to assign guards to related patches in the series file to selectively
push patches.
See Chapter 13 of the HG Book for more info.
(http://hgbook.red-bean.com/hgbookch13.html)
Guards are appended as "#+foo" or "#-foo" to the end of the patch name
in the series file, so they are compatible with quilt. The
guard setting and unsetting functions also respect comments on the
patch line, so they aren't mangled when you use guards.
This changes `get_series` to return the guarded series of patches that
will be actually be applied. `get_full_series` returns the full
series file.
If you change guards on a patch or select a different guard while
patches are applied, some commands might get confused. See
`guilt-select --pop` and `guilt-select --reapply` to avoid having to
`guilt-pop -a` yourself.
I did everything (maybe?) you suggested except implement a
safe_sed wrapper and a validate_guards function. The sed stuff is
maybe better for a later patch that covers most sed usage in guilt,
and the validate_guards isn't really necessary given the small number
of times it's called. If you would prefer either of those to get
done, let me know.
[PATCH 1/5] get_series: Remove comments from end of series lines
This just strips everything but the patch name from get_series,
to hide comments or guards on the line.
[PATCH 2/5] guilt-guard: Assign guards to patches in series
This adds the guilt-guard command and utility functions to
guilt. Introduces get_guarded_series, which is removed in
patch 4.
[PATCH 3/5] guilt-select: Select guards to apply when pushing patches
This puts selected guards in .git/patch/$branch/guards, and
adds a $guards_file variable to guilt.
[PATCH 4/5] get_series: return guarded patches only
Actually distinguish between guarded and non-guarded patches in
a number of commands by making get_series return the guarded
series, and introducing get_full_series to return the unguarded
series. Lots of changes.
If anything breaks, it's in this patch. Hopefully.
[PATCH 5/5] Guards test suite
Test stuff that uses get_series or get_full_series.
