I was about to say "it always amazes me" but by now I should instead say "I am used to see" that your fix to my crapola is always cleaner, simpler, and shorter. By the way, just to help you sort the heap of recent patches from me, here is the list of patches from me not in your tree that I think you _could_ consider. Other patches I posted to the list that have not been merged are mostly earlier attempts that I consider you have already discarded; there _could_ be something I am forgetting, but if even I myself forget, they probably do not matter ;-): ------------ This is a fix for a bug that would embarrass me unless fixed.

Date: Sat, 11 Jun 2005 02:50:51 -0700 Message-ID: <7vfyvpxlqi.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> Subject: [PATCH 5/3] read-tree: loosen too strict index requirements Date: Sat, 11 Jun 2005 02:53:57 -0700 The first four implement --emu23, a two-tree fast forward emulated internally using the three-way mechanism. This is to help cases where the user has local changes since the old head by not refusing to run in many cases straight 2-tree fast forward would refuse, and letting the user use the usual merge-cache three-way merge postprocessing machinery to carry local changes forward instead. The changes these four introduce do affect 3-way in 3 cases, which you objected, but this set has smaller impact than my earlier attempts. It only resolves 3 extra cases the original 3-way refuses to touch (my earlier one made it to resolve 3 cases that involve removed paths as well, none of which this round touches, and leaves stages in the resulting index). The cases new code internally resolves, instead of refusing to run, are: - only "merged head" created a new path, and the index happened to have the same change; we resolve it internally by taking the "merged head" and keep the index dirty if it was (#2ALT). - only "our head" created a new path, and the cache entry is dirty (i.e. user has local changes in the work tree file); we resolve it internally by taking "our head" and keep the index dirty if it was (#3ALT). - both "merged head" and "our head" created a new path identically, and the cache entry is dirty; we resolve it internally by taking "our head" and keep the index dirty if it was (#5ALT). I think your earlier objection of "closing the door to the clever merge algorithm" would not apply to these three cases. Note that --emu23 does not need 3-way code to resolve the #2ALT case, but needs the other two cases not refused; the patch makes it resolve #2ALT case only to keep things symmetric with #3ALT case --- otherwise users of 3-way merge would get confusing (but still correct) results. The last one [5/3] deals with the case where a path is only changed in the merged head in 3-way case, and the index already happens to have a version from the merged head (probably the user was playing with a patch floating around in the mailing list before initiating the merge). In this case we can make the 3-way merge succeed instead of refusing to run, and that is what this patch is about. This does not change the outcome of the merge, and I think your "closing the door" objection would not apply to it. ------------ This is to enhance the git-*-script suite. I do not mind too much if it stays outside, but I think it would be useful to other people as well, not just me.

Purely cosmetic at this point but as you pointed out it is a good discipline to help later maintenance to have a set of smaller single-task functions.
