I don't see any reason for `TestEnvironent::normalize_output()` to
just delegate to a free `normalize_output()`. By inlining it, we make
it easier to make the normalization to depend on more state.
As we have discussed many times on Discord and GitHub, `--destination`
is not a great name because `--insert-before` and `--insert-after` are
also destinations. The most popular alternative seems to be
`--onto`. We already use that term in descriptions in several places,
such as in the help text for `rebase -d` where we say "The revision(s)
to rebase onto". This patch therefore renames the `--destination` flag
to `--onto`.
The short name naturally becomes `-o`. That is perhaps a little
unfortunate because it's a common short name for `--output <file>`
arguments, but we don't use that anywhere so it seems fine.
Perhaps we should also rename `--source` (used by `rebase` and `fix`)
to something else. Perhaps the most obvious name is `--descendants`,
but the short form would be `-d`, which is of course already taken by
`--destination` in the case of `rebase`. Either way, I'm leaving that
rename for later. It would be good to do it before next release if we
are going to do it, though.

After the previous commit, `MergedTree` and `MergedTreeId` are almost
identical, with the only difference being that `MergedTree` is attached
to a `Store` instance. `MergedTreeId` is also equivalent to
`Merge<TreeId>`, since it is just a wrapper around it.
In the future, `MergedTree` might contain additional metadata like
conflict labels. Therefore, I replaced `MergedTreeId` with `MergedTree`
wherever I think it would be required to pass this additional metadata,
or where the additional methods provided by `MergedTree` would be
useful. In any remaining places, I replaced it with `Merge<TreeId>`.
I also renamed some of the `tree_id()` methods to `tree_ids()` for
consistency, since now they return a merge of individual tree IDs
instead of a single "merged tree ID". Similarly, `MergedTree` no longer
has an `id()` method, since tree IDs won't fully identify a `MergedTree`
once it contains additional metadata.
When `jj status` reports conflicted bookmarks, it suggests running `jj
bookmark list` for details and `jj bookmark set` to resolve the
conflict. However, it's easy to just read the first half of the hint
and run `jj bookmark list` and then not know what to do. Let's remind
the user of the hint in the `jj bookmark list` output if there are
conflicted bookmarks. It should also be useful for users who run `jj
bookmark list` out of habit (not directly because `jj status`
suggested it).
Now that bookmarks can be marked as tracked without a remote one
necessarily being present, we can preserve the tracking state of a
renamed bookmark.
An existing hint tells users to `jj git push --bookmark {new_bookmark}`
in order to rename the bookmark on the remote. That hint actually didn't
work before, because the `--allow-new` flag was required. Now that
tracked state is preserved, the existing hint becomes correct without
the `--allow-new` flag.
Colocation is about sharing the working copy between jj and git. It's
less important where the repo is stored. I therefore think we should
not call it "colocated repo". I considered renaming it to "colocated
working copy" but that sounded awkward in many places because we often
talk about the whole workspace (repo + working copy), so "In colocated
workspaces with a very large number of branches or other refs" sounds
better than "In colocated working copies with a very large number of
branches or other refs".
Once we support colocate workspaces in non-main Git worktrees, I think
this rename will be even more relevant because then all those
workspaces share the same repo but only some of them may be colocated.
Undoing a push operation does not undo the effects on the remote.
Bookmarks on the remote will stay in place, but the local repository
will forget about their state. If the bookmarks are subsequently
moved and pushed, that later push will fail, since the bookmarks have
"unexpectedly" moved on the remote. Therefore, add a warning telling
users to run `jj redo` to avoid these complications.
in clap, the visible_aliases, e.g. '[aliases: --after]' are shown at
the very end, which makes it confusing if you're reading from top to
bottom.
aliases are currently omitted entirely from the man pages, making it
confusing to see undocumented aliases being used.
A typical use case is to query bookmarked revisions ignoring auto-generated
bookmarks. `bookmarks() ~ bookmarks(x)` doesn't work because a revision may have
multiple bookmarks. It's also nice that we can document the default of
`remote_bookmarks()` as `remote_bookmarks(remote=~exact:"git")`.
Closes#7665
We currently don't allow you to create two identical commits. It
results in an internal error. I think we need to allow it. Let's start
by testing the current behavior.
I created these as CLI tests because I want to make sure that `evolog`
and `op diff` get tested, including rendering.
I think if a particular test sets e.g. $JJ_TIMESTAMP, they would
expect it to get used by `run_jj()` but we currently overwrite a few
variables in that method. This patch makes it so we respect all
environment added to the test environment.
I'm going to use this for a test case that attempts to create
identical commits.
Just moments ago, I ran into a case where I wanted to change both the
author and committer of a change. I knew about the new `jj metaedit`
command, but until now that only gave me the ability to update the
author of my change, so the committer would remain the same. My only
other option was to reach for `jj desc ... --reset-author`, which has
a deprecation warning:
Warning: `jj describe --reset-author` is deprecated; use `jj metaedit --update-author` instead
In spite of that warning, this had the desired effect: both the author
and committer were updated.
So I figured I'd help `metaedit` grow these flags so it can be a _true_
replacement for `jj desc --reset-author`.

The above all happened before I was kindly informed in Discord
(https://discord.com/channels/968932220549103686/1431315533164314674)
that `jj metaedit --update-committer-timestamp` should do what I was
hoping for, which I had initially disregarded and never tried because
the help text originally said:
This updates the committer date to now, without modifying the committer.
However, after trying it out, I noticed it actually _did_ modify the
committer.
So, I set out to improve the situation by renaming the flag (so it's
not partially-wrong: it does update the committer timestamp, as well as
everything else about the committer) and improving the help text in the
various flags.
---
In no particular order, thanks to:
* obtuse, for informing me that the `--update-committer-timestamp`
flag does what I wanted in the first place
* gaetan, for pointing out that my way of thinking was not quite meshing
with how jj does things (every modification will update the committer)
* Martin, for the new flag name
This new command lets you turn a non colocated git repo into a colocated repo or vice-versa (by using the `jj git colocation enable` and `jj git colocation disable` commands respectively).
These commands simply implement the instructions found in https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/blob/main/docs/git-compatibility.md#converting-a-repo-into-a-co-located-repo
You can also call `jj git colocation status` to show the current colocation status and `jj colocation` to show a help message (with the list of sub-commands).
This includes the fix for
https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/issues/3127. The fix let us
optionally allow unclosed character classes in .gitignore files. It is
allowed by default when using the `GitignoreBuilder` (as we do), so we
get the fix without code changes.
I'm planning to try to add conflict labels to `MergedTree` and
`MergedTreeId`, and it will be easier to add them if both are structs
with similar methods. Since we don't support reading/writing legacy
conflicts anymore (as far as I'm aware), I think it should be safe to
delete the `MergedTreeId::Legacy` variant now.
When cloning with the branch option:
- Only the specified branch will be fetched
- The trunk alias is only set if the specified branch happens to be the default branch
- The clone fails if the branch does not exist in the remote
Since we can now update tags internally, local and remote tags may be out of
sync in non-colocated Git repositories. "tags" template should indicate that.
