Re: [RFC/PATCH Second draft] Fast forward strategies allow, never, and only

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

 



I have attached a new set of patches to this email (to avoid
line-wrapping issues if someone needs them for testing).  They are
also posted inlined for comments.

The patch series consists of the following five patches:

   0001-New-merge-tests.patch
   0002-Introduce-ff-fast-forward-option.patch
   0003-Restructure-git-merge.sh.patch
   0004-Head-reduction-before-selecting-merge-strategy.patch
   0005-Introduce-fast-forward-option-only.patch

The first patch add some tests.  The second, fourth, and fifth adds
new features and they are all trivial.  I was able to make the fourth
patch trivial as well by actually doing the real work of finding the
reduced parents in the third patch.  The third patch computes the
reduced parents but uses it only to determine whether we are
up-to-date or do a fast forward.

There are probably some minor adjustments to the documentation we
should do.  The third patch doesn't do much but it is still  a pretty
big step for code change for git-merge.sh.  I would therefor like more
eyes to look at this.  More tests is also needed.  I would like the
following tests to be added:

   -  A test where a recursive merge is required for the merge
      to succeed, where an octopus would fail.

   - A test where a recursive merge gets more than one commit as the
     merge base.  A case where "git merge-base --all" returns at least
two commits.

Is there anyone that can give me some tips for such tests?  What is
the simplest case where a recursive merge is required?.  How can I
construct a history where we have more than one common ancestor for
two commit objects?

I have looked at the current tests and there does not seem to be
anything where "git merge-base --all" return more than one ancestor.

From 0c8fc6cd4bb097746ecdbc96cecfa774cc5e478c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Sverre Hvammen Johansen <hvammen@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2008 17:27:28 -0800
Subject: [PATCH 2/5] Introduce -ff=<fast forward option>

--ff now takes an argument allowing --ff to be written
as --ff=allow and -no-ff to be written as --ff=never.
This change allow other fast forward options to be
introduced later.

See the documentation for a further explanation of these options.

+FAST FORWARD OPTIONS
+--------------------
+
+allow::
+
+	Do not generate a merge commit if the merge resolves as a
+	fast-forward, only update the branch pointer.  This option is
+	equivalent of '--ff' without any argument.  This is the
+	default behavior.
+
+never::
+	Generate a merge commit even if the merge resolves as a
+	fast-forward.  This option is equivalent of '--no-ff'.
+
+If your workflow is always to branch from the special branch
+("master") when working on a topic and merge that back to "master", if
+you happen to have worked only on a single topic and the "master" was
+never advanced during the time you worked on that topic, merging the
+topic back to "master" will result in a fast-forward.  When you look
+back that history, you will not be able to tell where the topic
+started and ended by following the ancestry chain of the "master"
+branch.
+
+Using "never fast forward" policy on such a special branch will be a
+way to make sure that all commits on the first-parent ancestry of that
+special branch will be merges from something else.  From the history
+you can determine where the topic started and ended.
+
+The following shows two branches forked off from "master".  The branch
+"master" have merged in changes from branch "topicA" twice and
+"topicB" once:
+
+------------
+         o---o---o---o---o  topicA
+        /     \           \
+    ---*-------*-------*---*  master
+      /         \     /
+                 o---o  topicB
+------------
+
+The first merge of topicA or the only merge of topicB would have
+resulted in a fast forward without '--ff=never'.  Topic A consist of
+those commits that can be reached from master^2 without passing
+through any of the first-parent ancestries of master.

+If more than one commit are specified on the command line, git will
+try to reduce the number of commits used (reduced parents) by
+eliminating commits than can be reached from other commits.  The
+commit message will reflect the commits specified on the command line
+but the merge strategy will be selected based on the reduced parents
+including `HEAD`.  The reduced parents are the parents recorded in the
+merge commit object.
+
+The following shows master and three topic branches.  topicB is based
+on topicA, topicA is previously branched off from master, and topicC
+is based on the tip of the master branch:

+Merging topicA, B and C to the master branch will select the merge
+strategy based on the three branches master, topicB, and topicC
+(topicA is eliminated since it can be reached from topicB).  topicB

+parents recorded in the merge commit object:
