Yeah I run into the same thing on Windows if somebody accidentally
checks in a CRLF file. Do you have core.autocrlf on? If you do, I
think the problem is that it's going to try to convert the line
endings on every checkout/etc, but since the file is already CRLF (not
LF as is normally in the repository), it's going to make the file look
different every time.

It seems like you want core.autocrlf to be false or you want a
.gitattributes file to override it on a per-file basis for the files
you know are CRLF (i.e. the ones that are CRLF even on the Linux
side).

Yes it is - thanks for that!  I presume that (in other workflows --
not necessarily git,git's) that using git-resurrect.sh would be
preferable to the git-log suggestion above if the topic branch wanting
to be "resurrected" had several merge points?

This is really useful - thank you - it's solving a missing piece of a
puzzle for me.  :)

Makes sense - and on that note - in our current workflow of using Git,
we have a feature branch, call it "featureA" which is forked from
"master" (where our stable code lives) -- but obviously over time, if
bugfixes happen and get released, what do we do about then ensuring
that featureA also benefits from these bug-fixes?  Since invariably
people will want to develop using the bug-fixes, but "featureA" long
since branched from "master" at a point in the past, before the
bug-fixes?

What do you do, about this when handling topic branches merged into
next, or doesn't it really matter by that point?

[...snip really useful explanation...]

I can't thank you enough, Junio for this -- you've effectively ironed
out a workflow here I think I can now go away and start using -
thanks.  :)

There is replacement series sent to git mailing list a little while
ago.  

The replacements for "time to generate page" and 'blame_incremental'
are IMVHO out of WIP (but more testing, in different web browsers
would be good).

The part that actualy creates links that lead to 'blame_incremental'
view is still work in progress, and needs ideas how to correctly
implement it.

I hope you didn't.  This is only in 'master' and will appear first in the
upcoming 1.6.5; it is never meant for 1.6.4.X maintenance series and
1.6.4.2 does not have this change.

"git status" is preview of what git commit does.  The "Changes to be
committed" section is given at the beginning of the output because it is
the most important one.  But while reviewing the conflicts, you would want
to notice conflicted paths more than what are already resolved and staged.

It used to be that unmerged paths were mixed together with locally
modified paths in the "Changed but not updated" list, after the "Changes
to be committed" list.  This made the unmerged paths harder to spot than
necessary.

To remedy this, unmerged ones are now:

 (1) placed in a new, separate section that appears only when there are
     unmerged paths, to make the fact that there is something unusual
     going on (i.e. conflicts) stand out; and

 (2) the new section is given at the top of the status output to give
     these unmerged paths more prominence.

Having said all that, the relative importance of the pieces of information
given in "git status" output is fairly subjective.

If you are a confident, know-what-I-am-doing type, you would see the
"Changes to be committed" list the most important, because that is where
you make sure you have added all the changes you want to include in the
commit.  If you are a forgetful type, on the other hand, you would see
"Changed but not updated" and "Untracked files" more important, because
that is where you make sure there isn't any files you modified and new
files you created that you want to include in the commit but may have
forgotten.  If you are into flipping many branches and often commit your
changes on a wrong branch, you may value the "On branch foo" information
at the top the most.  So in that sense, there cannot be a single right
order of these sections.

But unmerged entries are something you need to deal with _first_ before
being able to go further, so in that sense it is more important than
anything else in the traditional output.

In the output, "the most important part first" rule is unlikely to change,
if only because this is what you are shown when committing in the editor,
and even in 1.7.0 when "git status" stops being "git commit --dry-run"
because we would still keep consistency of the two outputs,

By the way, please do not deflect responses to your message away from
yourself using Mail-Followup-To.

* Problems with GIT under Windows - "not uptodate"
From: david.hagood @ 2009-09-01 15:46 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git

I am having a problem trying to support my poor, deluded cow-orkers who
use Windows and need to use GIT.

The scenario goes something like this:

They have a local repo, they have changes on their branch, they are
staging a commit to the master branch on their local.

They do a "git merge" and the merge has conflicts. They need to undo the
merge, so they do a "git reset --hard".

>From that point onward, if they try to access the origin repository (e.g.
"git pull") they get the error message

Error: Entry "Some file name" not uptodate: cannot merge.

We've tried "git reset --hard; git pull ." We've tried "git reset --hard;
git checkout -f master". Neither seems to fix this.

We Linux users don't see this.

I conjecture it is something to do with DOS's CR/LF line endings (the
files in question are a type of XML file which ALWAYS have CR/LF endings,
even under Linux) - perhaps *something* in the GIT processing chain is
trying to do a CR/LF -> LF conversion, and screwing things up.

Does anybody have any suggestions on what I am doing wrong (Please, not
"you are using Windows")?

If anyone has suggestions on improvements that can help with these issues, 
feel free to submit additional patches. Backwards compatibility is not an 
issue at the moment since it is new material and I so far is the only user 
of the tool (and since it is meant for one-shot imports, backwards

* unmerged files listed in the beginning of git-status
From: bill lam @ 2009-09-01 14:52 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git

I noticed in the new git 1.6.4.2 . git-status show unmerged files
with a clause of explanation.  This is very helpful. However these
unmerged files are listed in the beginning and followed by modified
files,  I imagined the normal case will be there is only a few
unmerged files but a much large number of other files.  Thus it needs
to shift pageup or redirect to less in order view these unmerges
files.  Previously these unmerge files are listed after modified files
and easily seen or copy-and-paste using mouse.  Is there any specific
reason to change the order of sequence?

You have a couple of options here, both of which you can read about in
'man gitattributes'.

If you have "don't care" attributes, that's a good sign that you
shouldn't be storing them *at all*.  You could use the 'filter'
feature of gitattributes to remove them (or convert them to a
constant) on checkin, and regenerate them on checkout.

As for merging algorithms, you can supply a custom one using the
'merge' gitattribute.

You can apparently override this with the 'merge' attribute as well.

With Git you are able to use custom merge driver for specific files
(files specified by glob, which can be all files) by using `merge`
gitattribute (it is about file-level merging in the case of file
contents conflict).  Or you can use 'merge.default' config variable to
set merge driver for all files.

Also you can set `diff` filter to custom diff driver which ignores
timestamps, or even remove timestamps from files when checking them in
using `filter` gitattribute (clean / smudge filters).

You can have `merge` attribute unset , e.g 

  *.uml  -merge

This means "Take the version from the current branch as the tentative
merge result, and declare that the merge has conflicts."


Also if you have some graphical merge tool, you can consider
configuring and using git-mergetool.

* Making GIT XML aware?
From: david.hagood @ 2009-09-01 13:57 UTC (permalink / raw)

I have a project that is committing several XML files into GIT, and we
have a problem when doing merges.

The files are UML XMI 1.1 files generated by a UML tool (specifically
Enterprise Architect by Sparx), and EA "helpfully" puts things like
timestamps of modification and access into the files. As you can guess,
these are conflict-magnets. Yes, the ideal solution would be to turn that
off, and I am pursuing that avenue within EA.

However, it seems to me that if there were some way to plug into GIT's
merging logic, it would be possible to design an XML aware merging tool
that might help on this (generalizing: if you could have content-aware
merging libraries you could make all sorts of merges go more smoothly).
For the specific case of an XML file, if you could have some way to denote
tags and/or attributes that are "don't cares" you could address problems
like I am having. You could also theoretically exploit a knowledge of the
format to better identify what chunks are changes and possibly track
motion within the files better.

Absent that, is there a way to tell git "in case of an unresolvable merge
conflict, don't modify the file but put the other version of the file
somewhere (e.g. filename.other) so that I can use an external tool to
resolve the differences"? In this case, EA doesn't know how to use the

* [PATCHv5 2/5] gitweb: Incremental blame (using JavaScript)
From: Jakub Narebski @ 2009-09-01 11:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git
  Cc: Petr Baudis, Fredrik Kuivinen, Giuseppe Bilotta, Luben Tuikov,
	Martin Koegler, Jakub Narebski
In-Reply-To: <1251805160-5303-2-git-send-email-jnareb@gmail.com>

Add 'blame_incremental' view, which uses "git blame --incremental"
and JavaScript (Ajax), where 'blame' use "git blame --porcelain".

* gitweb generates initial info by putting file contents (from
  "git cat-file") together with line numbers in blame table
* then gitweb makes web browser JavaScript engine call startBlame()
  function from gitweb.js
* startBlame() opens XMLHttpRequest connection to 'blame_data' view,
  which in turn calls "git blame --incremental" for a file, and
  streams output of git-blame to JavaScript (gitweb.js)
* XMLHttpRequest event handler updates line info in blame view as soon
  as it gets data from 'blame_data' (from server), and it also updates
  progress info
* when 'blame_data' ends, and gitweb.js finishes updating line info,
  it fixes colors to match (as far as possible) ordinary 'blame' view,
  and updates information about how long it took to generate page.

Gitweb deals with streamed 'blame_data' server errors by displaying
them in the progress info area (just in case).

The 'blame_incremental' view tries to be equivalent to 'blame' action;
there are however a few differences in output between 'blame' and
'blame_incremental' view:
* 'blame_incremental' always used query form for this part of link(s)
  which is generated by JavaScript code.  The difference is visible
  if we use path_info link (pass some or all arguments in path_info).
  Changing this would require implementing something akin to href()
  subroutine from gitweb.perl in JavaScript (in gitweb.js).
* 'blame_incremental' always uses "rowspan" attribute, even if
  rowspan="1".  This simplifies code, and is not visible to user.
* The progress bar and progress info are still there even after
  JavaScript part of 'blame_incremental' finishes work.

Note that currently no link generated by gitweb leads to this new
view.


This code is based on patch by Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> patch, which
in turn was tweaked up version of Fredrik Kuivinen <frekui@gmail.com>'s
proof of concept patch.

This patch adds GITWEB_JS compile configuration option, and modifies
git-instaweb.sh to take gitweb.js into account.  The code for
git-instaweb.sh was taken from Pasky's patch.

Changes compared to last version (v4):
* The file with JavaScript code for 'blame_incremental' got renamed
  from 'blame.js' to 'gitweb.js' -- it is now meant to contain all
  JavaScript code, as per Google and Yahoo! guidelines (there should
  be one file with JavaScript code, to be cached, as JavaScript
  loading is blocking).
* Move coloring rows duting 'blame_data' run to a separate commit.
* The debug(str) function and its use (even commented out) was removed;
  the code is now meant to be in production, and should have leftover
  debugging statements.
* spacePad(input, width) function, which pads with '&nbsp;' got
  replaced by more generic padLeftStr(input, width, padstr) function.
* Added information about global variables used by function via 
  @globals annotation (non in JSDoc standard).
* Make prevDataLength and nextReadPos properties (fields) of
  XMLHttpRequest object, instead of being global variables.
* Pass xhr as parameter to handleError and responseLoaded functions
  (it shadows xhr as a global variable).
* Move setting onreadystatechange handler before xhr.open()
* Add information about GITWEB_JS Makefile configuration variable to
  gitweb/README
* Remove unnecessary 'reminder' comments in gitweb.js

TODO for future commits:
* Use W3C Progress Events (progress, error, load) in addition to
  currently used readystatechange event
    http://www.w3.org/TR/progress-events/
    http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/
    http://www.nczonline.net/blog/2009/07/09/firefox-35firebug-xmlhttprequest-and-readystatechange-bug/
  if XMLHttpResponse supports it.
* handleResponse is used both as onreadystatechange and pollTimer;
  if onreadystatechange works for partial responses we can turn off
  the timer.
* JavaScript is single theraded, therefore there is no need for
  critical section; remove inProgress global variable (flag), and
  busy-read while loop.
* Remove (fade out) progress bar and progress info after blame
  incremental finished run, if possible with large amount of code to
  deal with browser incompatibilities.

TODO and possible extensions:
* Profile gitweb.js using YUI Profiler (or other JavaScript profile tool)
    http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/profiler/
  to check whether performance improvements described in articles
  on NCZOnline blog by Nicholas C. Zakas are required, and would help
    http://www.nczonline.net/blog/
* Get rid of global variables, if possible.
* Instead of running startBlame, put it in window.onload handler.

Roads not taken (perhaps that should be part of commit message?):
* Move most (or all) of "git blame --incremental" output parsing to
  server side, and instead of sending direct output in text/plain,
  send processed data in JSON format, e.g.

    {"commit": {
       "sha1": "e83c5163316f89bfbde7d9ab23ca2e25604af290",
       "info": "Kay Sievers, 2005-08-07 21:49:46 +0200",
       "author-initials": "KS",
       ...
     },
     "src-line": 13,
     "dst-line": 16,
     "numlines": 3,
     "filename": "README"
     }

  (line wrapping added for readibility).  This would require however
  taking care on Perl side to send properly formatted JSON, and on
  JavaScript side including json2.js code to read JSON in gitweb.js
  (unless we rely on eval).
* Using some lightweight JavaScript library (framework), like jQuery,
  Prototype, ExtJS, MooTools, etc.  One one hand side this means not
  having to worry about browser incompatibilities as this would be
  taken care of by library; on the other hand side we want gitweb to
  have as few dependences as possible.
* Use 'multipart/x-mixed-replace': first it is not standard, second
  I don't think this would be a good solution for our problem.

* [PATCHv1 3/5] gitweb: Colorize 'blame_incremental' view during processing
From: Jakub Narebski @ 2009-09-01 11:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git
  Cc: Petr Baudis, Fredrik Kuivinen, Giuseppe Bilotta, Luben Tuikov,
	Martin Koegler, Jakub Narebski
In-Reply-To: <1251805160-5303-3-git-send-email-jnareb@gmail.com>

This requires using 3 colors, not only two, to be able to choose color
different from colors of up to 2 neigbours.

gitweb.js select least used color, if more than one color is possible.

Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>

This was earlier part of previous commit (adding 'blame_incremental'
view).

* [PATCHv3/RFC 4/5] gitweb: Create links leading to 'blame_incremental' using JavaScript
From: Jakub Narebski @ 2009-09-01 11:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git
  Cc: Petr Baudis, Fredrik Kuivinen, Giuseppe Bilotta, Luben Tuikov,
	Martin Koegler, Jakub Narebski
In-Reply-To: <1251805160-5303-4-git-send-email-jnareb@gmail.com>

The new 'blame_incremental' view requires JavaScript to run.  Not all
web browsers implement JavaScript (e.g. text browsers such as Lynx),
and not all users have JavaScript enabled.  Therefore instead of
unconditionally linking to 'blame_incremental' view, we use JavaScript
to convert those links to lead to view utilizing JavaScript, by adding
'js=1' to link.

Currently the only action that takes 'js=1' into account is 'blame',
which then acts as if it was called as 'blame_incremental' action.
Possible enhancement would be to do JavaScript redirect by setting
window.location instead of modifying $format and $action in
git_blame_common() subroutine.

The only JavaScript-aware/using view is currently 'blame_incremental'.
While at it move reading JavaScript to git_footer_html() subroutine.
Note that in this view we do not add 'js=1' currently (even though
perhaps we should; note that for consistency we should also add 'js=1'
in links added by JavaScript part of 'blame_incremental').


This idea was originally implemented by Petr Baudis in
  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/47614
but it added <script> element with fixBlameLinks() function in page
header, to be added as onload event using 'onload' attribute of HTML
'body' element: <body onload="fixBlameLinks();">.  This version adds
script at then end of page (in the page footer), and uses JavaScript
'window.onload=fixLinks();'.  Also in Petr version only links marked
with 'blamelink' class were modified, and they were modified by
replacing "a=blame" by "a=blame_incremental"... which doesn't work for
path_info links, and might replace wrong part if there is "a=blame" in
project name, ref name or file name.

Slightly different solution was implemented by Martin Koegler in
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/47902/focus=47905
Here GitAddLinks() function was in gitweb.js file, not as contents of
<script> element.  It was also included in page header (in <head>
element) though, which means waiting for a script to load (and run).
It was smarter in that to "fix" (modify) link, it split URL, modified
value of 'a' parameter, and then recreated modified link.  It avoids
trouble with "a=blame" as substring in project name or file name, but
it doesn't work with path_info URL/link in the way it was written.

This patch is in RFC stage.

Currently fixLinks() is not invoked for 'blame_incremental', but links
generated by startBlame (or to be more exact by event handler in
gitweb.js) lead to 'blame_incremental' directly.  Also the list of
"JavaScript-aware actions" is currently hardcoded to
'blame_incremental' (and relies on 'blame' + 'js=1' to change
$action).

Also fixLinks() adds 'js=1' to too many links, including $home_link,
and links to feeds (where JavaScript is not supported anyway).
Alternate solution would be to mark links which lead to action which
has JavaScript-requiring alternative, either marking it via 'class'
attribute, or providing for example 'alt_href' or 'jshref' attribute
with link to JavaScript-requiring variant.


Differences from previous version (v2):
* fixLinks() function is put in gitweb.js together with all JavaScript
  code required for 'blame_incremental' view, instead of being defined
  inside <script> element.
* Running startBlame() was moved to git_footer_html, instead of being
  in git_blame_common
* The link to plain 'blame' view (which do not require JavaScript
  support enabled in web browser) inside <noscript> element is marked
  with 'js=0'.
* fixLinks() now doesn't add 'js=1' if links ends with '[?;]js=[01]'
  (so that e.g. 'js=0' means link to view which do not require
  JavaScript).
* performance: calculate number of elements in a list before loop


TODO for future commits:
* Use 'click' event to change links to jave 'js=1' parameter appended;
  this way we would check if JavaScript is enabled at the moment of
  following (clicking) link, not at the moment of loading the page.

  Unfortunately adding event listeners (much better solution than
  providing/adding 'onclick' attribute) is different in different
  browsers.  Some kind of wrapper around browser incompatibilities
  would be required.

* [PATCHv2 1/5] gitweb: Add optional "time to generate page" info in footer
From: Jakub Narebski @ 2009-09-01 11:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git
  Cc: Petr Baudis, Fredrik Kuivinen, Giuseppe Bilotta, Luben Tuikov,
	Martin Koegler, Jakub Narebski
In-Reply-To: <1251805160-5303-1-git-send-email-jnareb@gmail.com>

Add "This page took XXX seconds and Y git commands to generate"
to page footer, if global feature 'timed' is enabled (disabled
by default).  Requires Time::HiRes installed for high precision
'wallclock' time.

Note that Time::HiRes is being required unconditionally of 'timed'
feature, because setting $t0 variable should be fairly early to have
running time of the whole script.  If Time::HiRes module was required
only if 'timed' feature is enabled, the earliest place where starting
time ($t0) could be calculated would be after reading gitweb config,
making "time to generate page" info inaccurate.

This code is based on example code by Petr 'Pasky' Baudis.

Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>
---
This version adds custom formatting for "time to generate page"
information in the page footer, instead of reusing 'page_footer'
style.  It is now clearly separated from the gitweb footer proper.

While at it the ids were changed from "generate_info" etc. to
"generating_info" etc.

There is still a question whether Time::HiRes should be require'd
unconditionally, but otherwise this patch is out of RFC stage.


Sidenote: I have noticed that gitweb's CSS rules are unnecessary
strict, making rendering slower because of extra non needed checks
(the rule is that selectors should be as simple as possible).

* [PATCH 0/5] gitweb: Incremental blame series (1 Sep 09)
From: Jakub Narebski @ 2009-09-01 11:39 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git
  Cc: Petr Baudis, Fredrik Kuivinen, Giuseppe Bilotta, Luben Tuikov,
	Martin Koegler, Jakub Narebski

This series is meant to replace the 'jn/gitweb-blame' topic branch
(it is merged into 'pu', b08ae28).

Jakub Narebski (5):
  gitweb: Add optional "time to generate page" info in footer
  gitweb: Incremental blame (using JavaScript)
  gitweb: Colorize 'blame_incremental' view during processing
  gitweb: Create links leading to 'blame_incremental' using JavaScript
  gitweb: Minify gitweb.js if JSMIN is defined

The "time to generate page" info got its own style, and don't looks
bolted on now.  Incremental blame patch is no longer marked as proof
of concept, or as a work in progress; I think it is mature enough.

Last two patches (creating links and JSMIN) are in active development,
and should be considered work in progress (or even proof of concept
code).

This series has 3-color colorizing of 'blame_incremental' view is put
into separate patch.  JavaScript code used to create links leading to
'blame_incremental' view is now put in gitweb.js, which is meant to
contain all JavaScript code used by Git.

The last patch (modifying Makefile) was added because of concern that
heavily commented gitweb.js could be a burden on server.

Yep, I think that would do it. I'm not sure why I was doing it that
other way. Maybe a leftover from when I was still getting confident
with the code and I hadn't yet found the var that held the initial
match line, or something like that.

Why do you need imglen[] vla here?  IOW, can't the above be simply like
this?

I like that. I think it addresses Dscho's concern with mistakes causing
an unexpected stash, and it is actually more consistent with the current
rule (that named stashes need an explicit 'save'). IOW, it is actually a
bit confusing that "git stash foo" doesn't work, but "git stash -k foo"
does.

It only does what it is instructed to do: the function is annotated with
warn_unused_result attribute. What really is annoying is someones
choice of the functions to annotate.

Thanks, lack of time on my side to work on this, sorry.

I was actually thinking of being a little more paranoid to prevent
accidental "stash save": we could refuse to create a named stash when
the "save" command is not given. The case I hadn't thought of was "git
stash -q apply", which has 99% chances of being a typo for "git stash
apply -q", and which would mean "create a stash named apply, quietly".

So, that could become something like

default_to_save=t
for arg in "$@"; do
	case "$arg" in
	-*)
		;;
	*)
		default_to_save=
	esac
done

if [ "$default_to_save" = t ]; then
	set "save" "$@"
fi

(untested)

github probably told you how to clone your github repo on your local
machine. Then, use "git pull" and "git push" to get changes from
github and to send your changes there.

This is very much the standard way to use Git, so I guess reading the
doc can help ;-).
