[PATCH 3/4] git-reflog: add option --updateref to write the last reflog sha1 into the ref

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

 



Certain sanity checks on the reflog assume that the sha1 of the top reflog
entry will be equal to the sha1 stored in the ref.

When reflog entries are deleted, this assumption may not hold. This patch
adds a new option to git-reflog which causes the subcommands "expire" and
"delete" to update the ref with the sha1 of the top-most reflog entry.

This sucks in close_ref() and commit_ref() from refs.c. The changes to
expire_reflog() implement some of what write_ref_sha1() does. I guess
a new function in refs.c could have been made which instead of a logmsg
takes an updated reflog filename, but that seemed too contrived. We're
already modifying the reflog directly anyway, so maybe it's ok to modify
the ref directly too.
