  add: use struct argv_array in run_add_interactive()
2014-03-28 13:51:05 -07:00
Fabian Ruch c45a18e88f add: use struct argv_array in run_add_interactive()
run_add_interactive() in builtin/add.c manually computes array bounds
and allocates a static args array to build the add--interactive command
line, which is error-prone. Use the argv-array helper functions instead.

Junio C Hamano 160c4b183c Merge branch 'jc/add-2.0-ignore-removal'
"git add <pathspec>" is the same as "git add -A <pathspec>" now,
i.e. it does not ignore removals from the directory specified.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy ebb32893ba pathspec: convert some match_pathspec_depth() to dir_path_match()
This helps reduce the number of match_pathspec_depth() call sites and
show how m_p_d() is used. And it usage is:

 - match against an index entry (ce_path_match or match_pathspec_depth
   in ls-files)

 - match against a dir_entry from read_directory (dir_path_match and
   match_pathspec_depth in clean.c, which will be converted later)

 - resolve-undo (rerere.c and ls-files.c)

patch file to be edited during 'git add -e' receives all the color

causes want_color to now return 'auto'.

By explicitly setting use_color to 0, we can ensure the diff output

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy bd30c2e484 pathspec: support :(glob) syntax
:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.

With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:

 - make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
   --literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
   disables _all_ pathspec magic.

 - individually turn on globbing with :(glob)

 - make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs

 - individually turn off globbing with :(literal)

The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

  git add: avoid "-u/-A without pathspec" warning on stat-dirty paths
2013-04-26 15:17:48 -07:00
Junio C Hamano 0df7b8e55c git add: avoid "-u/-A without pathspec" warning on stat-dirty paths
In preparation for Git 2.0, "git add -u/-A" without pathspec checks
all the working tree (not limited to the current directory) and
issues a warning when it finds any path that we might add in Git
2.0, because that would mean the users' fingers need to be trained
to explicitly say "." if they want to keep the current behaviour.

However, the check was incomplete, because "git add" usually does
not refresh the index, considers a path that is stat-dirty but has
contents that is otherwise up-to-date in the index as "we might
add", and relies on that it is a no-op to add the same thing again
via the add_file_to_index() API (which also knows not to say "added"
in verbose mode when this happens).  We do not want to trigger the
warning for a path that is outside the current directory is merely
stat-dirty, as it won't be added in Git 2.0, either.

Junio C Hamano fdc97abd4a git add <pathspec>... defaults to "-A"
Make "git add <pathspec>..." notice paths that have been removed
from the working tree, i.e. the same as "git add -A <pathspec>...".

Given that "git add <pathspec>" is to update the index with the
state of the named part of the working tree as a whole, it makes it
more intuitive, and also makes it possible to simplify the advice we
give while marking the paths the user finished resolving conflicts
with.  We used to say "to record removal as a resolution, remove the
path from the working tree and say 'git rm'; for all other cases,
edit the path in the working tree and say 'git add'", but we can now
say "update the path in the working tree and say 'git add'" instead.

As promised, this merges the temporary update_files_in_cache() helper
function back to add_files_to_cache() function.

Junio C Hamano 9f60f49b92 git add: --ignore-removal is a better named --no-all
In the historical context of "git add --all ." that pays attention
to "all kinds of changes" (implying "without ignoring removals"),
the option to countermand it "--no-all" may have made sense, but
because we will be making "--all" the default when a pathspec is
given, it makes more sense to rename the option to a more explicit
"--ignore-removal".  The "--all" option naturally becomes its
negation, "--no-ignore-removal".

Junio C Hamano d226b14d47 git add: rework the logic to warn "git add <pathspec>..." default change
The earlier logic to warn against "git add subdir" that is run
without "-A" or "--no-all" was only to check any <pathspec> given
exactly spells a directory name that (still) exists on the
filesystem.  This had number of problems:

 * "git add '*dir'" (note that the wildcard is hidden from the
   shell) would not trigger the warning.

 * "git add '*.py'" would behave differently between the current
   version of Git and Git 2.0 for the same reason as "subdir", but
   would not trigger the warning.

 * "git add dir" for a submodule "dir" would just update the index
   entry for the submodule "dir" without ever recursing into it, and
   use of "-A" or "--no-all" would matter.  But the logic only
   checks the directory-ness of "dir" and gives an unnecessary
   warning.

Rework the logic to detect the case where the behaviour will be
different in Git 2.0, and issue a warning only when it matters.
Even with the code before this warning, "git add subdir" will have
to traverse the directory in order to find _new_ files the index
does not know about _anyway_, so we can do this check without adding
an extra pass to find if <pathspec> matches any removed file.

This essentially updates the "add_files_to_cache()" public API to
"update_files_in_cache()" API that is internal to "git add", because
with the "--all" option, the function is no longer about "adding"
paths to the cache, but is also used to remove them.

There are other callers of the former from "checkout" (used when
"checkout -m" prepares the temporary tree that represents the local
modifications to be merged) and "commit" ("commit --include" that
picks up local changes in addition to what is in the index).  Since
ADD_CACHE_IGNORE_ERRORS (aka "--no-all") is not used by either of
them, once dust settles after Git 2.0 and the warning becomes
unnecessary, we may want to unify these two functions again.

Jonathan Nieder 71c7b0538f add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd
A common workflow in large projects is to chdir into a subdirectory of
interest and only do work there:

	cd src
	vi foo.c
	make test
	git add -u
	git commit

The upcoming change to 'git add -u' behavior would not affect such a
workflow: when the only changes present are in the current directory,
'git add -u' will add all changes, and whether that happens via an
implicit "." or implicit ":/" parameter is an unimportant
implementation detail.

The warning about use of 'git add -u' with no pathspec is annoying
because it seemingly serves no purpose in this case.  So suppress the
warning unless there are changes outside the cwd that are not being
added.

A previous version of this patch ran two I/O-intensive diff-files
passes: one to find changes outside the cwd, and another to find
changes to add to the index within the cwd.  This version runs one
full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn
and suppress it in update_callback.  As a result, even on very large
repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the
future default behavior ("git add -u :/"), and the slowdown relative
to "git add -u ." should be a useful clue to users of such
repositories to get into the habit of explicitly passing '.'.

Junio C Hamano 45c45e300b git add: start preparing for "git add <pathspec>..." to default to "-A"
When "git add subdir/" is run without "-u" or "-A" option, e.g.

    $ edit subdir/x
    $ create subdir/y
    $ rm subdir/z
    $ git add subdir/

the command does not notice removal of paths (e.g. subdir/z) from
the working tree.  This sometimes confuses new people, as arguably
"git add" is told to record the current state of "subdir/" as a
whole, not the current state of the paths that exist in the working
tree that matches that pathspec (the latter by definition excludes
the state of "subdir/z" because it does not exist in the working
tree).

Plan to eventually make "git add" pretend as if "-A" is given when
there is a pathspec on the command line.  When resolving a conflict
to remove a path, the current code tells you to "git rm $path", but
with such a change, you will be able to say "git add $path" (of
course you can do "git add -A $path" today).  That means that we can
simplify the advice messages given by "git status".  That all will
be in Git 2.0 or later, if we are going to do so.

For that transition to work, people need to learn either to say "git
add --no-all subdir/" when they want to ignore the removed paths
like "subdir/z", or to say "git add -A subdir/" when they want to
take the state of the directory as a whole.

"git add" without any argument will continue to be a no-op.

Junio C Hamano 300c0a2209 builtin/add.c: simplify boolean variables
Do not to explicitly initialize static variables to 0 and instead
let BSS take care of it.  Also use OPT_BOOL() to let the command
line arguments set these variables to 0 or 1, instead of the
deprecated OPT_BOOLEAN() aka OPT_COUNTUP().

  Replace filepattern with pathspec for consistency
2013-02-12 12:23:12 -08:00
Matthieu Moy d32805dce7 Replace filepattern with pathspec for consistency
pathspec is the most widely used term, and is the one defined in
gitglossary.txt. <filepattern> was used only in the synopsys for git-add
and git-commit, and in git-add.txt. Get rid of it.

This patch is obtained with by running:

  perl -pi -e 's/filepattern/pathspec/' `git grep -l filepattern`

Junio C Hamano 27d46a7072 Merge branch 'mm/add-u-A-sans-pathspec'
Forbid "git add -u" and "git add -A" without pathspec run from a
subdirectory, to train people to type "." (or ":/") to make the
choice of default does not matter.

  add: warn when -u or -A is used without pathspec

Matthieu Moy 0fa2eb530f add: warn when -u or -A is used without pathspec
Most Git commands that can be used with or without pathspec operate
tree-wide by default, the pathspec being used to restrict their
scope.  A few exceptions are: 'git grep', 'git clean', 'git add -u'
and 'git add -A'.  When run in a subdirectory without pathspec, they
operate only on paths in the current directory.

The inconsistency of 'git add -u' and 'git add -A' is particularly
problematic since other 'git add' subcommands (namely 'git add -p'
and 'git add -e') are tree-wide by default.  It also means that "git
add -u && git commit" will record a state that is different from
what is recorded with "git commit -a".

Flipping the default now is unacceptable, so let's start training
users to type 'git add -u|-A :/' or 'git add -u|-A .' explicitly, to
prepare for the next steps:

* forbid 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec (like 'git add' without
  option)

* much later, maybe, re-allow 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec, that
  will add all tracked and modified files, or all files, tree-wide.

A nice side effect of this patch is that it makes the :/ magic
pathspec easier to discover for users.

When the command is called from the root of the tree, there is no
ambiguity and no need to change the behavior, hence no need to warn.
