[PATCH V4] git-apply: skip threeway in add / rename cases

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

 



Certain invocations of "git apply --3way"
will attempt threeway and fail due to
missing objects, even though git is able
to fall back on apply_fragments and
apply the patch successfully with a return
value of 0. To fix, return early from
try_threeway() in the following cases:

When the patch is a rename and no lines have
changed. In this case, "git diff" doesn't
record the blob info, so 3way is neither
possible nor necessary.

When the patch is an addition and there is
no add/add conflict, i.e. direct_to_threeway
is false. In this case, threeway will fail
since the preimage is not in cache, but isn't
necessary anyway since there is no conflict.

This fixes a few unecessary error prints
when applying these kinds of patches with
--3way.

It also fixes a reported issue where applying
a concatenation of several git produced patches
will fail when those patches involve a deletion
followed by creation of the same file. Added a
test for this case too.

- Fix test bug where it wasn't actually
exercising the correct failure mode.
