[PATCH v5 4/7] sequencer: handle unborn branch with `--allow-empty`

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

 



When using git-cherry-pick(1) with `--allow-empty` while on an unborn
branch, an error is thrown. This is inconsistent with the same
cherry-pick when `--allow-empty` is not specified.

Detect unborn branches in `is_index_unchanged`. When on an unborn
branch, use the `empty_tree` as the tree to compare against.

Add a new test to cover this scenario. While modelled off of the
existing 'cherry-pick on unborn branch' test, some improvements can be
made:

- Use `git switch --orphan unborn` instead of `git checkout --orphan
  unborn` to avoid the need for a separate `rm -rf *` call
- Avoid using `--quiet` in the `git diff` call to make debugging easier
  in the event of a failure. Use simply `--exit-code` instead.

Make these improvements to the existing test as well as the new test.

Changes from v4:

- Use single-line block comment style since the comment is a single line
  of text.
- Wrap two longer lines of code.
