No need to hurry, but just to make sure this didn't disappear from
everybody's radar.

I've decided that I will make it die (unless anyone comes up with an
obviously correct solution before I get around to sending the reroll)
because it's a lot easier to loosen that in the future than to change it
if we get the behaviour wrong now.  I don't want to hold every other
subcommand hostage to this one case.

In submodule add, the leading '../' prefix on the repository url has
always meant that the url is relative to the url of the current repo.
The given repo-url is precisely what ends up in .gitmodules'
submodule.$name.url.  It works this way whether there is a remote
configured or not.

It does seem like we need to be cautious around this change.

I don't think I like that.  But I don't know if I like anything I
dreamed up, either.

If it's this simple, yes.  But I think there's also a third possibility
that combines both of these: what if the local directory structure is
the same as that on the "origin" remote?  Then "origin" exists but we
still want to adjust for the subdirectory.

The risk is that I can't see a behaviour that doesn't seem to choose
whether to convert the given path or not arbitrarily.  Even knowing the
rules, I expect that I could end up being surprised by this if I create
a new repository and haven't set up "origin" yet.

 Why not behave as if we are at the top of the working tree for relative
 paths? If there is an origin remote thats fine. If there is no origin
 remote you could warn that the path used is taken relative from the root
 of the superproject during add. What do you think?

Exactly.

> this particular case.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Don't the first three lines in
resolve_relative_url() show how to distinguish between these two
cases?

resolve_relative_url ()
{
remote=$(get_default_remote)
remoteurl=$(git config "remote.$remote.url") ||
remoteurl=$(pwd) # the repository is its own authoritative 
upstream
...

And this looks like a central place to handle this issue too (but I
admit I only glanced over the call sites of resolve_relative_url(),
so I might be missing something here).

The problem is that sometimes you do want to adjust the path and
sometimes you don't.  Reading git-submodule(1), it says:

 This may be either an absolute URL, or (if it begins with ./ or
 ../), the location relative to the superproject’s origin
 repository.
 [snip]
 If the superproject doesn’t have an origin configured the
 superproject is its own authoritative upstream and the current
 working directory is used instead.

So I think it's quite reasonable to have a server layout that looks like
this:

project
|- libs
|  |- libA
|  `- libB
|- core.git

and with only core.git on your local system do:

cd core/libs
git submodule add ../libs/libB

expecting that to point to libB.  But if we adjust the path then the
user has to do:

git submodule add ../../libs/libB

However, it is also perfectly reasonable to have no remote configured
and the library next to the repository itself.  In which case we do want
to specify the additional "../" so that shell completion works in the
natural way.

The only way I can see to resolve the ambiguity is to die when we hit
this particular case.  This should be acceptable because people
shouldn't be adding new submodules anywhere near as often as they
perform other submodule operations and it doesn't affect absolute URLs.

True I did not realize this when reading it the first time. But I think
we should still not die when in a subdirectory. After all this series is
trying to archive that the submodule command works in subdirectories
seamlessly right? So you probably want to translate a relative path
without "origin" remote given from a subdirectory to the superproject
level and use that. Then you do not have to die.

That's what the patch currently queued on "pu" does, which Jens wants to
change, isn't it?

Why not behave as if we are at the top of the working tree for relative
paths? If there is an origin remote thats fine. If there is no origin
remote you could warn that the path used is taken relative from the root
of the superproject during add. What do you think?

Agreed.  I've also noticed that the legacy "path" variable hasn't been
adjusted and the printing of the module paths does not make them
relative.  I'll fix them in the next version.

Ah, ok.  I think this case is problematic because the repository
argument is either relative to "remote.origin.url" or to the top of the
working tree if there is no "origin" remote.  I wonder if we should just
die when a relative path is given for the repository and we're not at
the top of the working tree.

Yes. If I read the code correctly the submodule is cd'ed in before
the foreach command is executed, so $sm_path should only be used for
displaying info about where the command is executed anyway. Looks
like your code is doing the right thing adjusting $sm_path to be
relative to the directory the user is in. But a test showing that
would really be nice ;-)

Sorry, I should have been more specific here. I saw that you did some

I meant that both commands still print the submodule names from the

Yeah, me too thinks that this is a sane short term solution (even
though a "git submodule add" currently happily stages any unstaged
modifications to the .gitmodules file too, that should not stop us
from doing better for rm and mv ;-).

And I also agree that in the long run the the git-config aware merge
driver together with the 3-way merge of a modified .gitmodules file
you described is the best solution. But I'd really like to complete
the recursive update before tackling that, so for now I just added
these two to the to-do list on my GitHub wiki page.

I'll resubmit this series with the strlen() fix and the erroring out
in case of unstaged modifications of the .gitmodules file as soon as
I find some time.

Good catch, thanks.  when !len and real_ref is the current branch,

In general I think whatever you think that makes sense in this area
would make sense ;-).

I do not feel confident that I am reading what you mean by "already
modified but unchanged" right.  Do you mean the working tree version
is different from both HEAD and the index (HEAD and the index may or
may not match and that does not change the situation)?  Assuming
that is the case, i.e. the situation you are worried about is:

When ".gitmodules" has a local modification the user chose not
to "add" yet.  Then the user does "git rm/mv" on a submodule
that is unrelated to the submodule whose setting the user has
changes for.

I am curious what the plan is to "fix" this.  An obviously safe
thing to do is to error out with a "You have local modification;
please 'git add .gitmodules' first." but if that advice/suggestion
is always the right course of action for the user, it invites "then
why doesn't Git do so for me?", which would in turn support that it
is not an issue in the first place (it deserves to be mentioned in a
warning, "adding your local modifications together with change
needed for rm/mv", though).

I think in the ideal world, you may want to apply the change needed
for rm/mv to the version in the index, and then update the working
tree version by doing a 3-way merge. We already know that eventually
we would need a merge driver that is specific to the file format
that git-config uses, possibly even taking an advantage of the
knowledge of not just the file format but also the semantics of
individual variables [*1*], so we may want to keep it in mind that a
three-way merge would be the eventual goal, while settling on an
"error out on local mod" just like "git checkout anotherbranch" used
to always stop (before we taught the "-m" option to it) when a local
change needed a 3-way merge to be carried along to the new branch.

So my gut feeling of the "fix" at this point in the evolution of the
program may be to error out with a message like "You have local
changes to .gitmodules; please stash it before moving or removing".

[Footnote]

*1* I think all the variables in .gitmodules are single-valued, so
the original submodule.dir.path's value was "dir", the local
modification by the user was to make it "folder", and rm wants
to delete an unrelated submodule.mod.* altogether, we can apply
the usual 3-way merge policy per variable basis to update
submodule.dir.pah to "folder".

A more general merge driver to handle git-config format files
would have a way to be told that some variables are additive
with the -X mechanism.  When variable
foo.bar is specified as a multi-valued set of variables, the
original has a single foo.bar="xyzzy", one side adds a
foo.bar="frotz while the other side modifies the original to
foo.bar="nitfol", the ideal way for such a merge driver to
operate is to leave two definitions (xyzzy will be gone and
frotz and nitfol remain).

But I highly suspect that would need a much larger change to the
configuration file parser and writer that is totally out of
scope with this change, and that is why my recommendation at
this point is just to follow the example of pre-"-m" era of "git
checkout anotherbranch".

To summarize what I think are the outstanding issues from your email:

* Should '$sm_path' be relative in "submodule foreach"?
* "submodule add" with a relative path
* "submodule init" initializes all submodules
* Tests

The current version does make '$sm_path' relative in "submodule
foreach", although it's hard to spot because we have to leave doing so
until right before the "eval".

I'm not sure what you mean about "submodule add" - the new version
treats the "path" argument as relative (providing it is not an absolute
path).  The "repository" argument is not changed by running from a
subdirectory but I think that's correct since it is documented as being
relative to the superproject's origin repository.

"submodule init" is behaving in the same way as "deinit" - if you say
"submodule init ." then it will only initialize submodules below the
current directory.  The difference is that "deinit" dies if it is not
given any arguments whereas "init" will initialize everything from the
top level down.  I'm not sure whether to change this; given the
direction "git add -u" is heading in for 2.0 I think the current
behaviour is the most consistent with the rest of Git.

I think the only thing outstanding is tests.  I'm happy to add those as
a follow-up or in a re-roll.

Hi,

I see that the Tested-by line in kb/status-ignored-optim-2 (3973cbd)
doesn't contain my e-mail address. I personally have no particular
preference whether it's there or not, but I noticed that it usually is
on Tested-by lines, so I'm wondering if I have slipped on some standard
practice. Would be useful to know in case I get the chance to help out
more :)

Thanks,
Øsse

The summary and status commands are looking good in this version
(they are now showing the submodule directory paths relative to
the current directory). Apart from that my other remarks from
gmane $221575 still seem to apply. And this series has only tests
for status, summary and add (and that just with an absolute URL),
I'd rather like to see a test for each submodule command (and a
relative add to) to document the desired behavior.

But I'm not sure if it's better to have another iteration of this
series or to address the open issues a follow-up series. Having
status, summary and add - at least with absolute URLs - lose the
toplevel requirement is already a huge improvement IMO. Opinions?

There are only two issues I'm aware of:

*) When the .gitmodules file is already modified but unchanged
   running rm or mv on a submodule will stage those changes too.

*) There is a harmless but unnecessary double invocation of strlen()
   in the function (fixed by the diff below).

I plan to fix the first issue in another patch which would also get
rid of the second issue, as exactly that code would have to be touched
anyways.

Does that make sense?

Ah, good catch.  Thanks.

What's cooking in git.git (May 2013, #09; Wed, 29)

2013-05-29 Thread Junio C Hamano
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.

Usually I avoid issuing "What's cooking" back-to-back, but because I
will be offline for a few days, here is a snapshot of tonight's
status.

Some topics that have been cooking in 'next' from the previous cycle
have now graduated to 'master', so the RelNotes have been updated.

Nothing new in 'next', and it has not been rewound yet, which will
hopefully happen this weekend, and after that post 1.8.3 cycle
really starts.

Also a rather serious regression on path-exclusion logic (most
notably seen in .gitignore) has been found and quickly patched (it
hasn't been merged to 'master' yet, though).

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html

 expiry dates.

 remote "origin" may be what uniquely map its own branch to
