reset: add option "--keep" to "git reset" The purpose of this new option is to discard some of the last commits but to keep current changes in the work tree. The use case is when you work on something and commit that work. And then you work on something else that touches other files, but you don't commit it yet. Then you realize that what you commited when you worked on the first thing is not good or belongs to another branch. So you want to get rid of the previous commits (at least in the current branch) but you want to make sure that you keep the changes you have in the work tree. And you are pretty sure that your changes are independent from what you previously commited, so you don't want the reset to succeed if the previous commits changed a file that you also changed in your work tree. The table below shows what happens when running "git reset --keep target" to reset the HEAD to another commit (as a special case "target" could be the same as HEAD). working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- A B C D --keep (disallowed) A B C C --keep A C C B B C D --keep (disallowed) B B C C --keep B C C In this table, A, B and C are some different states of a file. For example the last line of the table means that if a file is in state B in the working tree and the index, and in a different state C in HEAD and in the target, then "git reset --keep target" will put the file in state B in the working tree, and in state C in the index and in HEAD. The following table shows what happens on unmerged entries: working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- X U A B --keep (disallowed) X U A A --keep X A A In this table X can be any state and U means an unmerged entry. Though the error message when "reset --keep" is disallowed on unmerged entries is something like: error: Entry 'file1' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge. fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'HEAD^'. which is not very nice. A following patch will add some test cases for "--keep". The "--keep" option is implemented by doing a 2 way merge between HEAD and the reset target, and if this succeeds by doing a mixed reset to the target. The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project, where such an option was developed by Stephan Beyer: git://repo.or.cz/git/sbeyer.git (at commit 5a78908b70ceb5a4ea9fd4b82f07ceba1f019079) But in the sequencer project the "reset" flag was set in the "struct unpack_trees_options" passed to "unpack_trees()". With this flag the changes in the working tree were discarded if the file was different between HEAD and the reset target.

Add 'merge' mode to 'git reset' We have always had a nice way to reset a working tree to another state while carrying our changes around: "git read-tree -u -m". Yes, it fails if the target tree is different in the paths that are dirty in the working tree, but this is how we used to switch branches in "git checkout", and it worked fine. However, perhaps exactly _because_ we've supported this from very early on, another low-level command, namely "git reset", never did. But as time went on, 'git reset' remains as a very common command, while 'git read-tree' is now a very odd and low-level plumbing thing that nobody sane should ever use, because it only makes sense together with other operations like either switching branches or just rewriting HEAD. Which means that we have effectively lost the ability to do something very common: jump to another point in time without always dropping all our dirty state. So add this kind of mode to "git reset", and since it merges your changes to what you are resetting to, just call it that: "git reset --merge". I've wanted this for a long time, since I very commonly carry a dirty tree while working on things. My main 'Makefile' file quite often has the next version already modified, and sometimes I have local modifications that I don't want to commit, but I still do pulls and patch applications, and occasionally want to do "git reset" to undo them - while still keeping my local modifications. (Maybe we could eventually change it to something like "if we have a working tree, default to --merge, otherwise default to --mixed"). NOTE! This new mode is certainly not perfect. There's a few things to look out for: - if the index has unmerged entries, "--merge" will currently simply refuse to reset ("you need to resolve your current index first"). You'll need to use "--hard" or similar in this case. This is sad, because normally a unmerged index means that the working tree file should have matched the source tree, so the correct action is likely to make --merge reset such a path to the target (like --hard), regardless of dirty state in-tree or in-index. But that's not how read-tree has ever worked, so.. - "git checkout -m" actually knows how to do a three-way merge, rather than refuse to update the working tree. So we do know how to do that, and arguably that would be even nicer behavior. At the same time it's also arguably true that there is a chance of loss of state (ie you cannot get back to the original tree if the three-way merge ends up resolving cleanly to no diff at all), so the "refuse to do it" is in some respects the safer - but less user-friendly - option. In other words, I think 'git reset --merge' could become a bit more friendly, but this is already a big improvement. It allows you to undo a recent commit without having to throw your current work away. Yes, yes, with a dirty tree you could always do git stash git reset --hard git stash apply instead, but isn't "git reset --merge" a nice way to handle one particular simple case? Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> -- Hmm? Maybe I'm the only one that does a lot of work with a dirty tree, and sure, I can do other things like the "git stash" thing, or using "git checkout" to actually create a new branch, and then playing games with branch renaming etc to make it work like this one.

Yes, it fails if the target tree is different in the paths that are dirty in the working tree, but this is how we used to switch branches in "git checkout", and it worked fine. However, perhaps exactly _because_ we've supported this from very early on, another low-level command, namely "git reset", never did. But as time went on, 'git reset' remains as a very common command, while 'git read-tree' is now a very odd and low-level plumbing thing that nobody sane should ever use, because it only makes sense together with other operations like either switching branches or just rewriting HEAD. Which means that we have effectively lost the ability to do something very common: jump to another point in time without always dropping all our dirty state. So add this kind of mode to "git reset", and since it merges your changes to what you are resetting to, just call it that: "git reset --merge". I've wanted this for a long time, since I very commonly carry a dirty tree while working on things. My main 'Makefile' file quite often has the next version already modified, and sometimes I have local modifications that I don't want to commit, but I still do pulls and patch applications, and occasionally want to do "git reset" to undo them - while still keeping my local modifications. (Maybe we could eventually change it to something like "if we have a working tree, default to --merge, otherwise default to --mixed"). NOTE! This new mode is certainly not perfect. There's a few things to look out for: - if the index has unmerged entries, "--merge" will currently simply refuse to reset ("you need to resolve your current index first"). You'll need to use "--hard" or similar in this case. This is sad, because normally a unmerged index means that the working tree file should have matched the source tree, so the correct action is likely to make --merge reset such a path to the target (like --hard), regardless of dirty state in-tree or in-index. But that's not how read-tree has ever worked, so.. - "git checkout -m" actually knows how to do a three-way merge, rather than refuse to update the working tree. So we do know how to do that, and arguably that would be even nicer behavior. At the same time it's also arguably true that there is a chance of loss of state (ie you cannot get back to the original tree if the three-way merge ends up resolving cleanly to no diff at all), so the "refuse to do it" is in some respects the safer - but less user-friendly - option. In other words, I think 'git reset --merge' could become a bit more friendly, but this is already a big improvement. It allows you to undo a recent commit without having to throw your current work away. Yes, yes, with a dirty tree you could always do git stash git reset --hard git stash apply instead, but isn't "git reset --merge" a nice way to handle one particular simple case? Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> -- Hmm? Maybe I'm the only one that does a lot of work with a dirty tree, and sure, I can do other things like the "git stash" thing, or using "git checkout" to actually create a new branch, and then playing games with branch renaming etc to make it work like this one. But I suspect others dislike how "git reset" works too. But see the suggested improvements above. builtin-reset.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)

reset: add option "--keep" to "git reset" The purpose of this new option is to discard some of the last commits but to keep current changes in the work tree. The use case is when you work on something and commit that work. And then you work on something else that touches other files, but you don't commit it yet. Then you realize that what you commited when you worked on the first thing is not good or belongs to another branch. So you want to get rid of the previous commits (at least in the current branch) but you want to make sure that you keep the changes you have in the work tree. And you are pretty sure that your changes are independent from what you previously commited, so you don't want the reset to succeed if the previous commits changed a file that you also changed in your work tree. The table below shows what happens when running "git reset --keep target" to reset the HEAD to another commit (as a special case "target" could be the same as HEAD). working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- A B C D --keep (disallowed) A B C C --keep A C C B B C D --keep (disallowed) B B C C --keep B C C In this table, A, B and C are some different states of a file. For example the last line of the table means that if a file is in state B in the working tree and the index, and in a different state C in HEAD and in the target, then "git reset --keep target" will put the file in state B in the working tree, and in state C in the index and in HEAD. The following table shows what happens on unmerged entries: working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- X U A B --keep (disallowed) X U A A --keep X A A In this table X can be any state and U means an unmerged entry. Though the error message when "reset --keep" is disallowed on unmerged entries is something like: error: Entry 'file1' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge. fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'HEAD^'. which is not very nice. A following patch will add some test cases for "--keep". The "--keep" option is implemented by doing a 2 way merge between HEAD and the reset target, and if this succeeds by doing a mixed reset to the target. The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project, where such an option was developed by Stephan Beyer: git://repo.or.cz/git/sbeyer.git (at commit 5a78908b70ceb5a4ea9fd4b82f07ceba1f019079) But in the sequencer project the "reset" flag was set in the "struct unpack_trees_options" passed to "unpack_trees()". With this flag the changes in the working tree were discarded if the file was different between HEAD and the reset target.

reset: give better reflog messages The reset command creates its reflog entry from argv. However, it does so after having run parse_options, which means the only thing left in argv is any non-option arguments. Thus you would end up with confusing reflog entries like: $ git reset --hard HEAD^ $ git reset --soft HEAD@{1} $ git log -2 -g --oneline 8e46cad HEAD@{0}: HEAD@{1}: updating HEAD 1eb9486 HEAD@{1}: HEAD^: updating HEAD However, we must also consider that some scripts may set GIT_REFLOG_ACTION before calling reset, and we need to show their reflog action (with our text appended). For example: rebase -i (squash): updating HEAD On top of that, we also set the ORIG_HEAD reflog action (even though it doesn't generally exist). In that case, the reset argument is somewhat meaningless, as it has nothing to do with what's in ORIG_HEAD. This patch changes the reset reflog code to show: $GIT_REFLOG_ACTION: updating {HEAD,ORIG_HEAD} as before, but only if GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is set. Otherwise, show: reset: moving to $rev for HEAD, and: reset: updating ORIG_HEAD for ORIG_HEAD (this is still somewhat superfluous, since we are in the ORIG_HEAD reflog, obviously, but at least we now mention which command was used to update it). While we're at it, we can clean up the code a bit: - Use strbufs to make the message. - Use the "rev" parameter instead of showing all options.

reset: add option "--keep" to "git reset" The purpose of this new option is to discard some of the last commits but to keep current changes in the work tree. The use case is when you work on something and commit that work. And then you work on something else that touches other files, but you don't commit it yet. Then you realize that what you commited when you worked on the first thing is not good or belongs to another branch. So you want to get rid of the previous commits (at least in the current branch) but you want to make sure that you keep the changes you have in the work tree. And you are pretty sure that your changes are independent from what you previously commited, so you don't want the reset to succeed if the previous commits changed a file that you also changed in your work tree. The table below shows what happens when running "git reset --keep target" to reset the HEAD to another commit (as a special case "target" could be the same as HEAD). working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- A B C D --keep (disallowed) A B C C --keep A C C B B C D --keep (disallowed) B B C C --keep B C C In this table, A, B and C are some different states of a file. For example the last line of the table means that if a file is in state B in the working tree and the index, and in a different state C in HEAD and in the target, then "git reset --keep target" will put the file in state B in the working tree, and in state C in the index and in HEAD. The following table shows what happens on unmerged entries: working index HEAD target working index HEAD ---------------------------------------------------- X U A B --keep (disallowed) X U A A --keep X A A In this table X can be any state and U means an unmerged entry. Though the error message when "reset --keep" is disallowed on unmerged entries is something like: error: Entry 'file1' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge. fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'HEAD^'. which is not very nice. A following patch will add some test cases for "--keep". The "--keep" option is implemented by doing a 2 way merge between HEAD and the reset target, and if this succeeds by doing a mixed reset to the target. The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project, where such an option was developed by Stephan Beyer: git://repo.or.cz/git/sbeyer.git (at commit 5a78908b70ceb5a4ea9fd4b82f07ceba1f019079) But in the sequencer project the "reset" flag was set in the "struct unpack_trees_options" passed to "unpack_trees()". With this flag the changes in the working tree were discarded if the file was different between HEAD and the reset target.
