Since that git has supported the --always option for the git-format-patch command to create a patch with an empty commit message, git-am should support applying and committing with empty patches. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1: 1. add a case when not passing the --always option. 2. rename the --always option to --allow-empty. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v2: 1. rename the --allow-empty option to --empty-commit. 2. introduce three different strategies (die|skip|asis) when trying to record empty patches as empty commits. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v3: 1. generate the missed file for test cases. 2. grep -f cannot be used under Mac OS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v4: 1. rename the --empty-commit option to --empty. 2. rename three different strategies (die|skip|asis) to die, drop and keep correspondingly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v5: 1. throw an error when passing --empty option without value. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v6: 1. add i18n resources. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v7: 1. update code according to the seen branch. 2. fix the wrong document of git-am. 3. sign off commits by a real name. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v8: 1. update the committer's name with my real name to fix DCO of GGG. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v9: 1. imitate the signed name format of https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.1143.git.git.1637347813367.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v11: 1. introduce an interactive option --allow-empty for git-am to record empty patches in the middle of an am session. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v12: 1. record the empty patch as an empty commit only when there are no changes. 2. fix indentation problems. 3. simplify "to keep recording" to "to record". 4. add a test case for skipping empty patches via the --skip option. 徐沛文 (Aleen) (3): doc: git-format-patch: describe the option --always am: support --empty=<option> to handle empty patches am: support --allow-empty to record specific empty patches Documentation/git-am.txt | 14 ++++- Documentation/git-format-patch.txt | 6 ++- builtin/am.c | 82 +++++++++++++++++++++++++----- t/t4150-am.sh | 73 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ t/t7512-status-help.sh | 1 + wt-status.c | 3 ++ 6 files changed, 164 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) base-commit: abe6bb3905392d5eb6b01fa6e54d7e784e0522aa Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-1076%2Faleen42%2Fnext-v13 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-1076/aleen42/next-v13 Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/1076 Range-diff vs v12: 1: a524ca6adfa = 1: a524ca6adfa doc: git-format-patch: describe the option --always 2: a3e850bab7d = 2: a3e850bab7d am: support --empty=<option> to handle empty patches 3: d44dac09c87 ! 3: 08bd397ae7a am: support --allow-empty to record specific empty patches @@ Documentation/git-am.txt: default.
