QUESTION

does --quit leave you with a clean index and worktree after a rebase or a cherry-pick operation?

Asked 2022-Apr-14 at 23:00

I know that --quit does not change your HEAD pointer, so any commits made successfully during a rebase or cherrypick are still there.

But what I'm unsure of is, in case a conflict happened during a cherry-pick or a rebase, whether using --quit clear the changes brought about by the conflict, such as the successfully added changes, the conflict markers in the working directory, the multiple versions in the index etc ?

The git rebase documentation has the following:

--quit Abort the rebase operation but HEAD is not reset back to the original branch. The index and working tree are also left unchanged as a result.

the cherry-pick documentation is less clear about the effects on the index and work tree:

--quit Forget about the current operation in progress. Can be used to clear the sequencer state after a failed cherry-pick or revert.

But this otherwise excellent answer in SO has the following:

But if you choose --quit, Git terminates the rebase without moving HEAD, so that you wind up with:

but a clean index and work-tree. So you don't have to be clever enough to attach a branch name before the --quit.

So which is it ? I know that in a merge --quit will not clear the mess that a merge conflict makes in your index and work tree, it just abandons the merge head state. is it different in case of a cherry pick or a rebase ?

...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Apr-14 at 23:00

It really depends on the state you had at the time you issue the --quit: Git just stops here. I'll update the other answer to indicate that you can then git reset --hard to make it "clean" if you want, or leave it "dirty" if you want.

QUESTION

Why would a Windows user want to convert LF endings to CRLF?

Asked 2022-Apr-09 at 23:00

I'm dealing with LF/CRLF issues in a git repository and reading git's documentation to try to understand what I need to do.

One part of the documentation is confusing to me: they write here:

...many editors on Windows silently replace existing LF-style line endings with CRLF, or insert both line-ending characters when the user hits the enter key. Git can handle this by auto-converting CRLF line endings into LF when you add a file to the index, and vice versa when it checks out code onto your filesystem. You can turn on this functionality with the core.autocrlf setting. If you’re on a Windows machine, set it to true — this converts LF endings into CRLF when you check out code.

What I don't understand is: if I'm using Windows, why would I care to convert line endings from LF to CRLF? Would it be because my editor doesn't recognize LF line endings and thus shows all the code in a file as being one line? If it's that, then it seems that if I'm using an editor that does recognize such LF line endings and shows the code correctly even when the file is using LF line endings, then I wouldn't need to do the LF-to-CRLF conversion, right?

...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Apr-09 at 22:58

If your editor supports LF and you don't care about other people that might want to contribute to your repository then yes, for the most part, you don't need the conversion.

Any decent code editor from the last 20 years should handle LF files. Notepad on the other hand only supported CRLF for a very long time. Fixed in Windows 10 1809.

There still might be some command line tools that choke on LF and perhaps the biggest issue; command line tools that fopen files in text mode using the Microsoft C run-time will output CRLF even when \n is used in their code.

In the end I suppose it is a matter of preference and where you want potential conversion errors to occur; in the git auto-conversion or in tools used to parse/process the files.

QUESTION

Ability to edit local copies of remote branches

Asked 2022-Mar-27 at 16:57

I have difficulty understanding/verifying the following line from Pro Git:

It’s important to note that when you do a fetch that brings down new remote-tracking branches, you don’t automatically have local, editable copies of them. In other words, in this case, you don’t have a new serverfix branch — you have only an origin/serverfix pointer that you can’t modify.

I tried the following for a repository.

...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Mar-27 at 16:48

Notice that the phrases you quoted refer to a serverfix branch — not to master.

In the case of master (or whatever the remote HEAD is), when you clone you are given a local copy automatically; thus there was no need for you to make one.

But if there had been any other branches, clone does not make local copies of those for you, and a mere fetch would not have given you local copies of them either. You might have remote-tracking branches such as origin/someBranch, but if you wanted to edit someBranch, you'd have to create it first.

How to view author-date in Github.com

Asked 2022-Mar-14 at 06:52

In Git there are 2 types of dates, author-date and commit-date.

While git log shows the author date by default and similarly GitHub desktop appears to show the author-date by default, however GitHub.com shows the commit-date by default.

However so far I was unable to find how to view the author-date for the commit on the GitHub.com website, (while in this answer it is described how to view it in the GitHub API I didn't find anything on how to view it on the website itself).

Is there any way to view the author-date either on the general commit log page or at the individual commit level?

Thanks.

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Mar-14 at 06:52

Since the author-date is part of the patch format, you can get it from appending .patch while viewing a commit on the GitHub website:

--pretty= defaults to tformat, with terminator newlines. --pretty=format:%h\ %s%n%b%-C won't add an extra newline at the end and will eat all the trailing newlines on the body.

Yes, exactly.

so I bet that in order to fix it on remote I have to run a command similar to the one I run before (git update-ref -d refs/heads/develop) which targets the remote refs.

Almost. You cannot run exactly this command on the remote side. But you can remove the remote branch with a push:

QUESTION

How to run a git hook only when running git worktree add command

Asked 2022-Feb-02 at 10:49

I am wanting to run a shell script when I invoke the command git worktree add. Reading the docs for post-checkout seems like it would run for git worktree add but it would also run for other commands which I don't want to use it for, such as git checkout.

Is there any other hook I could use? Or perhaps I could use post checkout but have the script setup so it exits if it isn't the git worktree add command?

The reason I want to do this is to run a set of commands to set up my directory that is required when I run git worktree add, but I wouldn't need to do this setup for a normal git repository that is just using git checkout commands.

Git clean -x option

Asked 2022-Jan-20 at 02:37

In git-clean documentation, it says:

-x

Don’t use the standard ignore rules (see gitignore[5]), but still use the ignore rules given with -e options from the command line. This allows removing all untracked files, including build products. This can be used (possibly in conjunction with git restore or git reset) to create a pristine working directory to test a clean build.

While the output of git clean -h says:

...

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Jan-20 at 02:37

No, they're not. When it says, "don't use the standard ignore rules", it means, "don't ignore (i.e., don't prevent the removal of) files that match the standard ignore rules; treat them as any other untracked files."

Normally files that are ignored are preserved with git clean -df, but with -x, these files are not ignored because the standard ignore patterns are not considered, so the files are considered untracked and hence removed.

You are correct about what the standard ignore rules comprise.

Asked 2022-Jan-05 at 18:23

https://git.kernel.org is correct, specifically https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/.

https://github.com/git/git has "About" text that indicates it is a mirror:

Git Source Code Mirror - This is a publish-only repository but pull requests can be turned into patches to the mailing list via GitGitGadget (https://gitgitgadget.github.io/).

git-scm.com seems to be only semi-official: It's linked from the source tree's README but per the About this site link at the bottom, git-scm is an open-source third-party piece of documentation that became the Pro Git book (advertised in the left column). Since the official repo is based on cgit and is relatively minimal in its UI, I imagine GitHub and git-scm are more welcoming to newcomers and thus more popular.
