hg-to-git.py is able to convert a Mercurial repository into a git one,
and preserves the branches in the process (unlike tailor)
hg-to-git.py can probably be greatly improved (it's a rather crude
combination of shell and python) but it does already work quite well for
me. Features:
- supports incremental conversion
(for keeping a git repo in sync with a hg one)
- supports hg branches
- converts hg tags

This particular use of git-rebase to remove a single commit or a
range of commits from the history of a branch recently came up on
the mailing list. Documenting the example should help other users
arrive at the same solution on their own.
It also was not obvious to the newcomer that git-rebase is able to
accept any commit for --onto <newbase> and <upstream>. We should
at least minimally document this, as much of the language in
git-rebase's manpage refers to 'branch' rather than 'committish'.

This reverts commit 80c797764a.
Back when I committed this, it seemed to be a good idea. People
who always use remote tracking branches can optionally use the
local name they happen to use to specify what to merge, which meant
that I did not have to teach them why we use the name at the remote
side every time they are confused.
But allowing it seems to break other people's scripts. The real
solution is not to allow more ways to express the same thing, but
to educate people to use the right syntax.

When using --reference to borrow objects from a neighbouring
repository while cloning, we copy the entire set of refs under
temporary "refs/reference-tmp/refs" space and set up the object
alternates. However, a textual symref copied this way would not
point at the right place, and causes later steps to emit error
messages (which is harmless but still alarming). This is most
visible when using a clone created with the separate-remote
layout as a reference, because such a repository would have
refs/remotes/origin/HEAD with 'ref: refs/remotes/origin/master'
as its contents.
Although we do not create symbolic-link based refs anymore, they
have the same problem because they are always supposed to be
relative to refs/ hierarchy (we dereference by hand, so it only
is good for HEAD and nothing else).
In either case, the solution is simply to remove them after
copying under refs/reference-tmp; if a symref points at a true
ref, that true ref itself is enough to ensure that objects
reachable from it do not needlessly get fetched.

Because we use the nospace option for our completion function for
the main 'git' wrapper bash won't automatically add a space after a
unique completion has been made by the user. This has been pointed
out in the past by Linus Torvalds as an undesired behavior. I agree.
We have to use the nospace option to ensure path completion for
a command such as `git show` works properly, but that breaks the
common case of getting the space for a unique completion. So now we
set IFS=$'\n' (linefeed) and add a trailing space to every possible
completion option. This causes bash to insert the space when the
completion is unique.

Now that git-show is capable of displaying any file content from any

cat-file should no longer be classified as a user-level utility by
the bash completion package.
I'm also classifying the new git-reflog command as plumbing for the
time being as there are no subcommands which are really useful to
the end-user. git-gc already invokes `git reflog expire --all`,
which makes it rather unnecessary for the user to invoke it directly.

Now we have a separate reflog on HEAD, show-branch -g without an explicit
parameter defaults to the current branch, or HEAD when it is detached
from branches.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
We used to refuse leaving a detached HEAD when it wasn't matching an
existing ref so not to lose any commit that might have been performed
while not on any branch (unless -f was provided).
But this protection was completely bogus since it was still possible
to move to HEAD^ while still remaining detached but losing the last
commit anyway if there was one.
Now that we have a proper reflog for HEAD it is best to simply remove
that bogus (and admitedly annoying) protection and simply display the
last HEAD position instead. If one wants to recover a lost detached
state then it can be retrieved from the HEAD reflog.

My earlier fix (8371234e) to delete renamed tracked files from the
working directory also caused merge-recursive to delete untracked
files that were in the working directory.
The problem here is merge-recursive is deleting the working directory
file without regard for which branch it was associated with. What we
really want to do during a merge is to only delete files that were
renamed by the branch we are merging into the current branch,
and that are still tracked by the current branch. These files
definitely don't belong in the working directory anymore.
Anything else is either a merge conflict (already handled in other
parts of the code) or a file that is untracked by the current branch
and thus is not even participating in the merge. Its this latter
class that must be left alone.
For this fix to work we are now assuming that the first non-base
argument passed to git-merge-recursive always corresponds to the
working directory. This is already true for all in-tree callers
of merge-recursive. This assumption is also supported by the
long time usage message of "<base> ... -- <head> <remote>", where
"<head>" is implied to be HEAD, which is generally assumed to be
the current tree-ish.

I was reading the tutorial and noticed that we say this:
Also, don't use "git reset" on a publicly-visible branch that
other developers pull from, as git will be confused by history
that disappears in this way.
I do not think this is a good explanation. For example, if we
do this:
(1) I build a series and push it out.
---o---o---o---j
(2) Alice clones from me, and builds two commits on top of it.
---o---o---o---j---a---a
(3) I rewind one and build a few, and push them out.
---o---o---o...j
\
h---h---h---h
(4) Alice pulls from me again:
---o---o---o---j---a---a---*
\ /
h---h---h---h
Contrary to the description, git will happily have Alice merge
between the two branches, and never gets confused.
Maybe I did not want to have 'j' because it was an incomplete
solution to some problem, and Alice may have fixed it up with
her changes, while I abandoned that approach I started with 'j',
and worked on something completely unrelated in the four 'h'
commits. In such a case, the merge Alice would make would be
very sensible, and after she makes the merge if I pull from her,
the world will be perfect. I started something with 'j' and
dropped the ball, Alice picked it up and perfected it while I
went on to work on something else with 'h'. This would be a
perfect example of distributed parallel collaboration. There is
nothing confused about it.
The case the rewinding becomes problematic is if the work done
in 'h' tries to solve the same problem as 'j' tried to solve in
a different way. Then the merge forced on Alice would make her
pick between my previous attempt with her fixups (j+a) and my
second attempt (h). If 'a' commits were to fix up what 'j'
started, presumably Alice already studied and knows enough about
the problem so she should be able to make an informed decision
to pick between what 'j+a' and 'h' do.
A lot worse case is if Alice's work is not at all related to
what 'j' wanted to do (she did not mean to pick up from where I
left off -- she just wanted to work on something different).
Then she would not be familiar enough with what 'j' and 'h'
tried to achieve, and I'd be forcing her to pick between the
two. Of course if she can make the right decision, then again
that is a perfect example of distributed collaboration, but that
does not change the fact that I'd be forcing her to clean up my
mess.
