Summary: Add confirmation modal before you open the split UI, to ask if the user wants to confirm their unsaved edits to the commit message. This is only required because split can produce strange successors, which will later cause ISL to reapply edited commit messages to unrelated commits from the original. This can duplicate messages and diffs and other weird stuff. The confirmation here lets the user chose to immediately discard or immediately save the results. This diff adds the discard path, but see later diffs in the stack for the "save". It won't actually save just yet, it just loads the edited message into the split UI's data, so that when you DO split, it will apply the changes. This allows us to skip waiting for metaedit and doing complicated syncing. The confirmation here also shows you which commit(s) have unsaved changes, and which fields are unsaved, like title/test plan etc. I think this will be helpful to confirm things. I believe there's a bug (which I haven't tracked down) in message syncing that can make a commit appear edited even if it was just due a remote syncing difference. So showing the user what's changed makes it easier to think about (IMO). Ideally I guess we'd even show the diff if you hover the fields...but I don't do that just yet.

Sapling SCM
Sapling SCM is a cross-platform, highly scalable, Git-compatible source control system.
It aims to provide both user-friendly and powerful interfaces for users, as well as extreme scalability to deal with repositories containing many millions of files and many millions of commits.
Using Sapling
To start using Sapling, see the Getting Started page for how to clone your existing Git repositories. Checkout the Overview for a peek at the various features. Coming from Git? Checkout the Git Cheat Sheet.
Sapling also comes with an Interactive Smartlog (ISL) web UI for seeing and interacting with your repository, as well as a VS Code integrated Interactive Smartlog.
The Sapling Ecosystem
Sapling SCM is comprised of three main components:
- The Sapling client: The client-side
sl
command line and web interface for users to interact with Sapling SCM. - Mononoke: A highly scalable distributed source control server. (Not yet supported publicly.)
- EdenFS: A virtual filesystem for efficiently checking out large repositories. (Not yet supported publicly.)
Sapling SCM's scalability goals are to ensure that all source control operations scale with the number of files in use by a developer, and not with the size of the repository itself. This enables fast, performant developer experiences even in massive repositories with millions of files and extremely long commit histories.
Sapling CLI
The Sapling CLI, sl
, was originally based on
Mercurial, and shares various aspects of the UI
and features of Mercurial.
The CLI code can be found in the eden/scm
subdirectory.
Mononoke
Mononoke is the server-side component of Sapling SCM.
While it is used in production within Meta, it currently does not build in an open source context and is not yet supported for external usage.
EdenFS
EdenFS is a virtual file system for managing Sapling checkouts.
While it is used in production within Meta, it currently does not build in an open source context and is not yet supported for external usage.
EdenFS speeds up operations in large repositories by only populating working
directory files on demand, as they are accessed. This makes operations like
checkout
much faster, in exchange for a small performance hit when first
accessing new files. This is quite beneficial in large repositories where
developers often only work with a small subset of the repository at a time.
More detailed EdenFS design documentation can be found at eden/fs/docs/Overview.md.
Building the Sapling CLI
The Sapling CLI currently builds and runs on Linux, Mac, and Windows. It can be
built by running make oss
in the eden/scm
directory and running the
resulting sl
executable.
Building the Sapling CLI requires Python 3.8, Rust, CMake, and OpenSSL for the main cli, and Node and Yarn for the ISL web UI.
