* showing conflicting merges @ 2008-04-22 9:12 Uwe Kleine-König 2008-04-22 9:49 ` Santi Béjar 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: Uwe Kleine-König @ 2008-04-22 9:12 UTC (permalink / raw) To: git Hello, There is a thread on the linux-arm-kernel ML that discusses handling of merge conflicts with git.[1] I played around a bit with that and wondered about a few things: ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git checkout -b test adf6d34e460387ee3e8f1e1875d Switched to a new branch "test" ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git merge v2.6.25 Auto-merged MAINTAINERS CONFLICT (delete/modify): drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c deleted in HEAD and modified in v2.6.25. Version v2.6.25 of drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c left in tree. Auto-merged drivers/serial/imx.c Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result. Now "git diff --merge" shows: diff --cc drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c index 7ebecc4,0000000..9e0a188 ... Shouldn't that better be reversed, i.e. 9e0a188..7ebecc4,0000000? The resolution was to delete drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c: ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git rm drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c rm 'drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c' rm 'drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c' ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git commit Created commit 99a64ab: Merge commit 'v2.6.25' into test Now "git show" doesn't show the conflict resolution as it does for other conflicting merges. Adding -p and/or --cc didn't help either. Looking at the source I think the problem is that diff_tree_combined only shows diffs for paths that are touched by every parent. I'm not sure how I want to have the diff shown, but showing nothing seems wrong. Ideas? Another thing is that rerere don't record my resolution.

The combined diff does not show conflicts, it only shows the merged results that are different to all the parents. In this case the merge resolution is to delete one file as in HEAD, so it won't be shown. If you want to see the conflict resolution you have to recreate the merge and compare with the original merge. Santi ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I have not checked in the source code, but the output of strace -f -e open git diff --merge 2>&1 >/dev/null | grep leds-tosa seems to contradict that (i.e. there is no output). 7ebecc4 = v2.6.25:drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c 9e0a188 = $(git merge-base test v2.6.25):drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c (Ah, I just see, that's another hint that diff --merge doesn't look in the working copy. The wc has 7ebecc4 which is in the LHS together with 000000 (i.e. the deleted file from HEAD). Maybe the combined diff format cannot have more than one rev on the RHS? > > The resolution was to delete drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c: > > > > ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git rm drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c > > rm 'drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c' > > rm 'drivers/leds/leds-tosa.c' > > > > ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6$ git commit > > Created commit 99a64ab: Merge commit 'v2.6.25' into test > > > > Now "git show" doesn't show the conflict resolution as it does for other > > conflicting merges. > > Adding -p and/or --cc didn't help either.

I don't know its meaning in this case. It shoud be juts: $git diff that currently says in this case: $ git diff * Unmerged path file1 In this case: echo a >file1 && git add file1 && git commit -m initial && git checkout -b a1 master && git rm file1 && git commit -m a && git checkout -b b1 master && echo b> file1 && git add file1 && git commit -m b1 && git checkout a1 && git merge b1 The merge output is: Merging HEAD with b1 Merging: 3231a8a a ace6b2d b1 found 1 common ancestor(s): f43806f initial CONFLICT (delete/modify): file1 deleted in HEAD and modified in b1. Version b1 of file1 left in tree. Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result. $ git ls-files -s 100644 78981922613b2afb6025042ff6bd878ac1994e85 1 file1 100644 61780798228d17af2d34fce4cfbdf35556832472 3 file1 $ git diff [-1 | -2 | -3] * Unmerged path file1 $ git diff --merge diff --cc file1 index 6178079,0000000..7898192 mode 100644,000000..100644 --- a/file1 +++ b/file1 @@@ -1,1 -1,0 +1,1 @@@ - b ++a that does not make sense. Maybe something as? $ git diff diff --cc file1 index 0000000,6178079..0000000 mode 000000,100644..0000000 --- /dev/null +++ b/file1 But I don't really know what to expect in this case.
