'git subtree split' lets you specify a rev other than HEAD. 'git push'
lets you specify a mapping between a local thing and a remot ref. So
smash those together, and have 'git subtree push' let you specify which

'push' does a 'split' internally, but it doesn't pass flags through to the
'split'. This is silly, if you need to pass flags to 'split', then it
means that you can't use 'push'!
So, have 'push' accept 'split' flags, and pass them through to 'split'.
Add tests for this by copying split's tests with minimal modification.

Besides being a genuinely useful thing to do, this also just makes sense
and harmonizes which flags may be used when. `git subtree split
--rejoin` amounts to "automatically go ahead and do a `git subtree
merge` after doing the main `git subtree split`", so it's weird and
arbitrary that you can't pass `--squash` to `git subtree split --rejoin`
like you can `git subtree merge`. It's weird that `git subtree split
--rejoin` inherits `git subtree merge`'s `--message` but not `--squash`.
Reconcile the situation by just having `split --rejoin` actually just
call `merge` internally (or call `add` instead, as appropriate), so it
can get access to the full `merge` behavior, including `--squash`.

Just went through the docs looking for anything inaccurate or that can
be improved.
In the '-h' text, in the man page synopsis, and in the man page
description: Normalize the ordering of the list of sub-commands: 'add',
'merge', 'split', 'pull', 'push'. This allows us to kinda separate the
lower-level add/merge/split from the higher-level pull/push.
'-h' text:
- correction: Indicate that split's arg is optional.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
man page:
- correction: State that all subcommands take options (it seemed to
indicate that only 'split' takes any options other than '-P').
- correction: 'split' only guarantees that the results are identical if
the flags are identical.
- correction: The flag is named '--ignore-joins', not '--ignore-join'.
- completeness: Clarify that 'push' always operates on HEAD, and that
'split' operates on HEAD if no local commit is given.
- clarity: In the description, when listing commands, repeat what their
arguments are. This way the reader doesn't need to flip back and
forth between the command description and the synopsis and the full
description to understand what's being said.
- clarity: In the <variables> used to give command arguments, give
slightly longer, descriptive names. Like <local-commit> instead of
just <commit>.
- clarity: Emphasize that 'pull' takes the 'add'/'merge' flags.
- style: In the synopsis, list options before the subcommand. This
makes things line up and be much more readable when shown
non-monospace (such as in `make html`), and also more closely matches
other man pages (like `git-submodule.txt`).
- style: Use the correct syntax for indicating the options ([<options>]
instead of [OPTIONS]).
- style: In the synopsis, separate 'pull' and 'push' from the other
lower-level commands. I think this helps readability.
- style: Code-quote things in prose that seem like they should be
code-quoted, like '.gitmodules', flags, or full commands.
- style: Minor wording improvements, like more consistent mood (many
of the command descriptions start in the imperative mood and switch
to the indicative mode by the end). That sort of thing.
- style: Capitalize "ID".
- style: Remove the "This option is only valid for XXX command" remarks
from each option, and instead rely on the section headings.

That is: The indentation-level is hard-coded. It used to be that the

For each function in subtree, add a usage comment saying what the

it takes multiple 'revs', but it is in fact only ever passed a single

The main argument parser goes ahead and tries to parse revs to make

having having to think about "is this info coming from an argument, or a

Begone with the 'revs' global variable; parse 'rev=$(...)' as needed in

Scripts needing to fuss with with adding $(git --exec-prefix) PATH
before loading git-sh-setup is a thing of the past. As far as I can
tell, it's been a thing of the past since since Git v1.2.0 (2006-02-12),
or more specifically, since 77cb17e940 (Exec git programs without using
PATH, 2006-01-10). However, it stuck around in contrib scripts and in
third-party scripts for long enough that it wasn't unusual to see.
Originally `git subtree` didn't fuss with PATH, but when people
(including the original subtree author) had problems, because it was a
common thing to see, it seemed that having subtree fuss with PATH was a
reasonable solution.
Here is an abridged history of fussing with PATH in subtree:
2987e6add3 (Add explicit path of git installation by 'git --exec-path', Gianluca Pacchiella, 2009-08-20)
As pointed out by documentation, the correct use of 'git-sh-setup' is
using $(git --exec-path) to avoid problems with not standard
installations.
-. git-sh-setup
+. $(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup
33aaa697a2 (Improve patch to use git --exec-path: add to PATH instead, Avery Pennarun, 2009-08-26)
If you (like me) are using a modified git straight out of its source
directory (ie. without installing), then --exec-path isn't actually correct.
Add it to the PATH instead, so if it is correct, it'll work, but if it's
not, we fall back to the previous behaviour.
-. $(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup
+PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
+. git-sh-setup
9c632ea29c ((Hopefully) fix PATH setting for msysgit, Avery Pennarun, 2010-06-24)
Reported by Evan Shaw. The problem is that $(git --exec-path) includes a
'git' binary which is incompatible with the one in /usr/bin; if you run it,
it gives you an error about libiconv2.dll.
+OPATH=$PATH
PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
. git-sh-setup
+PATH=$OPATH # apparently needed for some versions of msysgit
df2302d774 (Another fix for PATH and msysgit, Avery Pennarun, 2010-06-24)
Evan Shaw tells me the previous fix didn't work. Let's use this one
instead, which he says does work.
This fix is kind of wrong because it will run the "correct" git-sh-setup
*after* the one in /usr/bin, if there is one, which could be weird if you
have multiple versions of git installed. But it works on my Linux and his
msysgit, so it's obviously better than what we had before.
-OPATH=$PATH
-PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH
+PATH=$PATH:$(git --exec-path)
. git-sh-setup
-PATH=$OPATH # apparently needed for some versions of msysgit
First of all, I disagree with Gianluca's reading of the documentation:
- I haven't gone back to read what the documentation said in 2009, but
in my reading of the 2021 documentation is that it includes "$(git
--exec-path)/" in the synopsis for illustrative purposes, not to say
it's the proper way.
- After being executed by `git`, the git exec path should be the very
first entry in PATH, so it shouldn't matter.
- None of the scripts that are part of git do it that way.
But secondly, the root reason for fussing with PATH seems to be that
Avery didn't know that he needs to set GIT_EXEC_PATH if he's going to
use git from the source directory without installing.
And finally, Evan's issue is clearly just a bug in msysgit. I assume
that msysgit has since fixed the issue, and also msysgit has been
deprecated for 6 years now, so let's drop the workaround for it.
So, remove the line fussing with PATH. However, since subtree *is* in
'contrib/' and it might get installed in funny ways by users
after-the-fact, add a sanity check to the top of the script, checking
that it is installed correctly.

"$*" is for when you want to concatenate the args together,
whitespace-separated; and "$@" is for when you want them to be separate
strings.
There are several places in subtree that erroneously use $@ when
concatenating args together into an error message.
For instance, if the args are argv[1]="dead" and argv[2]="beef", then
the line
die "You must provide exactly one revision. Got: '$@'"
surely intends to call 'die' with the argument
argv[1]="You must provide exactly one revision. Got: 'dead beef'"
however, because the line used $@ instead of $*, it will actually call
'die' with the arguments
argv[1]="You must provide exactly one revision. Got: 'dead"
argv[2]="beef'"
This isn't a big deal, because 'die' concatenates its arguments together
anyway (using "$*"). But that doesn't change the fact that it was a
mistake to use $@ instead of $*, even though in the end $@ still ended
up doing the right thing.

Suport for Git versions older than 1.7.0 (older than February 2010) was
nice to have when git-subtree lived out-of-tree. But now that it lives
in git.git, it's not necessary to keep around. While it's technically
in contrib, with the standard 'git' packages for common systems
(including Arch Linux and macOS) including git-subtree, it seems
vanishingly likely to me that people are separately installing
git-subtree from git.git alongside an older 'git' install (although it
also seems vanishingly likely that people are still using >11 year old
git installs).
Not that there's much reason to remove it either, it's not much code,
and none of my changes depend on a newer git (to my knowledge, anyway;
I'm not actually testing against older git). I just figure it's an easy
piece of fat to trim, in the journey to making the whole thing easier to

When multiple identical parents are detected for a commit being considered
for copying, explicitly check whether one is the common merge base between
the commits. If so, the other commit can be used as the identical parent;
if not, a merge must be performed to maintain history.
In some situations two parents of a merge commit may appear to both have
identical subtree content with each other and the current commit. However,
those parents can potentially come from different commit graphs.
Previous behavior would simply select one of the identical parents to
serve as the replacement for this commit, based on the order in which they
were processed.
New behavior compares the merge base between the commits to determine if
a new merge commit is necessary to maintain history despite the identical
content.

Adds recursive evaluation of parent commits which were not part of the
initial commit list when performing a split.
Split expects all relevant commits to be reachable from the target commit
but not reachable from any previous rejoins. However, a branch could be
based on a commit prior to a rejoin, then later merged back into the
current code. In this case, a parent to the commit will not be present in
the initial list of commits, trigging an "incorrect order" warning.
Previous behavior was to consider that commit to have no parent, creating
an original commit containing all subtree content. This commit is not
present in an existing subtree commit graph, changing commit hashes and
making pushing to a subtree repo impossible.
New behavior will recursively check these unexpected parent commits to
track them back to either an earlier rejoin, or a true original commit.
The generated synthetic commits will properly match previously-generated
commits, allowing successful pushing to a prior subtree repo.

Changes the behavior of --ignore-joins to always consider a subtree add
commit, and ignore only splits and squashes.
The --ignore-joins option is documented to ignore prior --rejoin commits.
However, it additionally ignored subtree add commits generated when a
subtree was initially added to a repo.
Due to the logic which determines whether a commit is a mainline commit
or a subtree commit (namely, the presence or absence of content in the
subtree prefix) this causes commits before the initial add to appear to
be part of the subtree. An --ignore-joins split would therefore consider
those commits part of the subtree history and include them at the
beginning of the synthetic history, causing the resulting hashes to be
incorrect for all later commits.

cmd_add_commit() is passed FETCH_HEAD by cmd_add_repository, which

fetching a tag rather than a branch HEAD, such as by executing:
$ git subtree add -P oldGit https://github.com/git/git.git tags/v1.8.0
the object name refers to a tag and is never peeled, and the git
commit-tree call (line 561) slaps us in the face because it doesn't
peel tags to commits.
Because peeling a committish doesn't do anything if it's already a

locally too, new code only ensures that the ref is well formatted)
- add the same check in "git subtree pull/push" + check the number of
parameters
- update the doc to use <ref> instead of <refspec>

`echo -n` is non-portable. The POSIX specification says:
Conforming applications that wish to do prompting without <newline>
characters or that could possibly be expecting to echo a -n, should
use the printf utility derived from the Ninth Edition system.
Since all of the affected shell scripts use a POSIX shell shebang,
replace `echo -n` invocations with printf.

It turns out that git-subtree script does not have to be run with
bash.
* dm/unbash-subtree:
contrib/git-subtree: Use /bin/sh interpreter instead of /bin/bash
Use /bin/sh interpreter instead of /bin/bash for contrib/git-subtree:
it's required for systems which don't use bash by default (for example,
FreeBSD), while there seem to be no bashisms in the script (confirmed
by looking through the source and tesing subtree functionality with
FreeBSD's /bin/sh) to require specifically bash and not the generic
posix shell.

When using "git subtree push" to split out a subtree and push it to a
remote repository, we do not detect if the split command fails which
causes the LHS of the refspec to be empty, deleting the remote branch.
Fix this by pulling the result of the split command into a variable so
that we can die if the command fails.
