Thanks Philippe and Jonathan for your review on the previous version :) Sorry for the long delay between iterations, I got wrapped up in other, unrelated work. The biggest change in this version is that "git submodule update" now creates the branch when the submodule is cloned, not when the submodule's worktree is updated. So when the worktree is updated, we use "git checkout " instead of "git checkout -b ". This is more robust to branches created directly in the submodule (which was pointed out by both reviewers), but also allows us to add matching behavior to "git submodule add ", which also clones + checks out submodules. During the v1 discussion, I realize that my idea of the new submodule UX has already diverged from what was initially communicated to the list. I plan to check in a technical document describing the plans for new submodule UX, which should hopefully make these discussions smoother (e.g. the commit message in patch 7 can make reference to the doc). = Description This series teaches "git clone --recurse-submodules" and "git submodule update" to understand "submodule.propagateBranches" (see Further Reading for context), i.e. if the superproject has a branch checked out and a submodule is cloned, the submodule will have the same branch checked out. To do this, "git submodule update" checks if "submodule.propagateBranches" is true, and if so, gets the current superproject branch and updates the submodule by running "git checkout -b my-superproject-branch". Since "git clone --recurse-submodules" is implemented using "git submodule update", it also learns this trick. The main challenges with this approach are: * If the remote HEAD points to a branch, "git clone" always creates that branch in the clone. But with "submodule.propagateBranches", we want submodules to use the branch names of their superproject, not their upstream. This is solved by adding a new flag to "git clone", "--detach", which detaches the clone's HEAD at the branch and does not create it. * When "git submodule update" recurses into submodules, the parent process has to propagate the value of "submodule.propagateBranches" to child processes, otherwise the behavior will be inconsistent if the submodule has the config unset. This is solved by adding an internal GIT_* environment variable and passing it down via prepare_submodule_repo_env(). This is cleaner than passing "-c submodule.propagateBranches=true", but an even cleaner solution would be for submodules to read "submodule.propagateBranches" from their superproject config. This would also be useful for "submodule.alternateLocation" and "submodule.alternateErrorStrategy", as we wouldn't have to set those values in newly-cloned submodules. This requires teaching Git to treat submodules differently, which was the subject of some WIP in [1]. That topic has stalled, but I don't mind restarting it if others prefer that. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220310004423.2627181-1-emilyshaffer@xxxxxxxxxx/ = Patch organization * Patch 1/7 adds "--detach" to "git clone" * Patch 2/7 creates the environment variable and repository setting for "submodule.propagateBranches" * Patch 3/7 adds a new "--branch" option to "git submodule clone", which makes it create a named branch. * Patches 4-6/7 are prep work, and 7/7 adds the actual "submodule.propagateBranches" behavior = Series history Changes in v2: * The superproject's "submodule.propagateBranches" value is always used, even if false. * Branches are now created at clone time (by adding a new flag to "git submodule clone"), instead of at update time. * Rebase onto newer master. This got adjusted slightly to incorporate ab/submodule-helper-leakfix. * Add more tests to demonstrate edge case behavior. * Assorted commit message and doc improvements. = Future work * Patch 5, which refactors resolve_gitlink_ref(), notes that a better interface would be to return the refname instead of using an "out" parameter, but we use an "out" parameter so that any new callers trying to use the old function signature will get stopped by the compiler. The refactor can be finished at a later time. * Patch 5 uses the name "target" when we are talking about what a symref points to, instead of "referent" like the other functions. "target" is the better choice, since "referent" could also apply to non-symbolic refs, but that cleanup is quite big. = Further reading Submodule branching RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/git/kl6lv912uvjv.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Original Submodule UX RFC/Discussion: https://lore.kernel.org/git/YHofmWcIAidkvJiD@xxxxxxxxxx/ Contributor Summit submodules Notes: https://lore.kernel.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2110211148060.56@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Submodule UX overhaul updates: https://lore.kernel.org/git/?q=Submodule+UX+overhaul+update "git branch --recurse-submodules": https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220129000446.99261-1-chooglen@xxxxxxxxxx/ Glen Choo (7): clone: teach --detach option repo-settings: add submodule_propagate_branches submodule--helper clone: create named branch t5617: drop references to remote-tracking branches submodule: return target of submodule symref submodule update: refactor update targets clone, submodule update: create and check out branches Documentation/git-clone.txt | 8 +- builtin/branch.c | 11 +-- builtin/clone.c | 12 ++- builtin/submodule--helper.c | 91 ++++++++++++++++--- builtin/update-index.c | 4 +- cache.h | 1 + combine-diff.c | 3 +- diff-lib.c | 2 +- dir.c | 2 +- object-file.c | 2 +- read-cache.c | 4 +- refs.c | 10 +- refs.h | 5 +- repo-settings.c | 10 ++ repository.h | 1 + submodule.c | 2 + t/t5601-clone.sh | 22 +++++ ...es-remote.sh => t5617-clone-submodules.sh} | 36 +++++++- t/t7406-submodule-update.sh | 64 +++++++++++++ unpack-trees.c | 3 +- 20 files changed, 251 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-) rename t/{t5617-clone-submodules-remote.sh => t5617-clone-submodules.sh} (72%) base-commit: 45c9f05c44b1cb6bd2d6cb95a22cf5e3d21d5b63 Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-git-1321%2Fchooglen%2Fsubmodule%2Fclone-recursive-with-branch-v2 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-git-1321/chooglen/submodule/clone-recursive-with-branch-v2 Pull-Request: https://github.com/git/git/pull/1321 Range-diff vs v1: 1: 936e237c716 ! 1: 432bc7cb3a4 clone: teach --detach option @@ Commit message clone: teach --detach option Teach "git clone" the "--detach" option, which leaves the cloned repo in - detached HEAD (like "git checkout --detach").
