Perhaps it is not "good", but the explanation a blank REWRITTEN/sha1 is used a marker during the probe phase that this commit will be rewritten. So when looking at any of its children commits, they should be rewritten if a REWRITTEN/parentSha1 exists. Then as the rewriting actually happens, they get filled in with the new sha1. I cribbed this approach from Stephan's sequencer rewrite of rebase-i-p. If you want a different data structure, be it file based, or bash/list based, or whatever, to track "this commit will eventually be rewritten but we haven't gotten there yet" during the probe, then we could go back to leaving REWRITTEN/sha1 alone until after the sha1 commit has been rebased. I'm open to suggestions. Also, as you seem to realize, the current bug stems from not knowing how to initialize the rewritten data structure. For Sitaram's case, the first commit is behind any of the merge bases, so marking its parents (if they exist) as rewritten to ONTO seems reasonable. If there are no parents, as you point out, I added a "-o sha1 = FIRST" that should also get the ball rolling. It's another hack, but does this address your concern until a large refactoring happens? -------------------------- git-rebase--interactive.sh -------------------------- index c8b0861..8740d9f 100755 @@ -604,11 +604,18 @@ first and then run 'git rebase --continue' again." echo $ONTO > "$REWRITTEN"/$c || die "Could not init rewritten commits" done + # Along with the merge bases, look at the first commit's + # parent (which may be before the merge base) and mark it + # as rewritten to ONTO + FIRST="$(git rev-list --reverse --first-parent $UPSTREAM..$HEAD | head -n 1)" + for p in $(git rev-list --parents -1 $FIRST | cut -d' ' -f2) + do + echo $ONTO > "$REWRITTEN/$p" + done # No cherry-pick because our first pass is to determine # parents to rewrite and skipping dropped commits would # prematurely end our probe MERGES_OPTION= - first_after_upstream="$(git rev-list --reverse --first-parent $UPSTREAM..$HEAD | head -n 1)" else MERGES_OPTION="--no-merges --cherry-pick" fi @@ -629,12 +636,12 @@ first and then run 'git rebase --continue' again." preserve=t for p in $(git rev-list --parents -1 $sha1 | cut -d' ' -f2-) do - if test -f "$REWRITTEN"/$p -a \( $p != $UPSTREAM -o $sha1 = $first_after_upstream \) + if test -f "$REWRITTEN"/$p -a $p != $UPSTREAM then preserve=f fi done - if test f = "$preserve" + if test f = "$preserve" -o $sha1 = $FIRST then touch "$REWRITTEN"/$sha1 echo "pick $shortsha1 $rest" >> "$TODO" (I'm adding the other 3 cc's back after my failed patch attempt stripped them out--sorry, guys.) - Stephen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
