Re: git and diffs against branches

2009-10-23 Thread Christian Hammond
Make sure you also use --full-index on git diff.

I've been really busy the last couple weeks. In and out of town, busy work
work, etc. I want that change in as much as anyone, just haven't been able
to give it the attention it needs. Soon :)

Thanks to your hint I (think I) have this working now (I have a review 
ready to go). So this was user error/trouble learning git.

I was assuming a diff was all I needed (and the branch would be 
assumed), what I needed to do was:


git diff HEAD file1 file2.

i.e. add the HEAD.

Thanks again!

Chris

Lobby for http://reviews.reviewboard.org/r/1144/ to get committed and
you should be all set. :) For now, the only options are to use the web
form or specify a revision range manually.

Can you explain more about the error with the web form? You mentioned
git diff, and if you meant that literally, that would end up diffing
your working copy changes against whatever is your HEAD. If your HEAD
is not a revision in the remote repository, RB won't understand what
you are diffing against.

git and diffs against branches

2009-10-23 Thread Chris Clark

Whilst I use other distributed SCM's I've only just started with git (as 
ReviewBoard uses it) and I think I'm having some trouble understanding 
git (and reviewboard).

What I'd like to do is post for review changes/diffs against a branch 
(not master/bleeding edge).

E.g.

git clone git://github.com/reviewboard/reviewboard.git
git checkout release-1.0.5.1
## hack on stuff, e.g. git add myfile
postreview.py --server=http://reviews.reviewboard.org/  --debug

Here is my output (note headrevs of rbtools and this is actually posted 
explictly with -r1177):

 >>> svn info
 >>> git rev-parse --git-dir
 >>> git svn info
 >>> git svn --version
 >>> git config --get svn-remote.svn.url
 >>> git remote show origin
 >>> repository info: Path: 
git://github.com/reviewboard/reviewboard.git, Base path: , Supports 
changesets: False
 >>> git diff --no-color --full-index master
 >>> Looking for 'reviews.reviewboard.org /' cookie in 
/home/ingres/.post-review-cookies.txt
 >>> Loaded valid cookie -- no login required
 >>> HTTP GETting api/json/reviewrequests/1177/
 >>> Uploading diff, size: 467617
 >>> HTTP POSTing to 
http://reviews.reviewboard.org/api/json/reviewrequests/1177/diff/new/: {}
Error uploading diff: One or more fields had errors (105)
 >>> {u'fields': {u'path': [u'int argument required']}, u'stat': 
u'fail', u'err': {u'msg': u'One or more fields had errors', u'code': 105}}
Your review request still exists, but the diff is not attached.


 From the instructions near the end of 
http://www.reviewboard.org/docs/codebase/dev/getting-started/#gettingstarted 
("Posting Changes for Review") I get the impression this is not allowed? 
The checkout is "based" on master but it is a different branch,

I guess this maybe a bug report too as it fails to post but does create 
an empty review without printing out the review number. I ended up 
browsing http://reviews.reviewboard.org/r/ and looking at the top to 
work out it had created one. Similar behavior if I just do a git diff 
and try and use the web interface (i.e. get int arg required error).

Help!

Chris
