[PATCH v2 0/8] cherry-pick: add `--empty`

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

 



The ultimate goal of this series is to allow git-cherry-pick(1) to
automatically drop redundant commits. The mechanism chosen is an
`--empty` option that provides the same flexibility as the `--empty`
options for git-rebase(1) and git-am(1).

Some secondary goals are to improve the consistency in the values and
documentation for this option across the three commands.

See "Does extending `--empty` to git-cherry-pick make sense?" [1] for
some context for why this option is desired in git-cherry-pick(1).

Along the way, I (with some help from Elijah and Phillip) found a few
other things in the docs and related sequencer code to clean up.

Brian Lyles (8):
  docs: address inaccurate `--empty` default with `--exec`
  docs: clean up `--empty` formatting in git-rebase(1) and git-am(1)
  rebase: update `--empty=ask` to `--empty=drop`
  sequencer: treat error reading HEAD as unborn branch
  sequencer: do not require `allow_empty` for redundant commit options
  cherry-pick: decouple `--allow-empty` and `--keep-redundant-commits`
  cherry-pick: enforce `--keep-redundant-commits` incompatibility
  cherry-pick: add `--empty` for more robust redundant commit handling
