When you're done with the `CommitBuilder`, you're going to have to
call `write_to_repo()`, passing it a mutable `MutableRepo`
reference. It's a bit simpler to pass that reference when we create
the `CommitBuilder` instead, so that's what this patch does.
A drawback of passing in the mutable reference when we create the
builder is that we can't have multiple unfinished `CommitBuilder`
instance live at the same time. We don't have any such use cases yet,
and it's not hard to work around them, so I think this change is worth
it.
I ran an upgraded Clippy on the codebase. All the changes seem to be
about using variables directly in format strings instead of passing
them as separate arguments.

There are no "non-normal" files, so "normal" is not needed. We have
symlinks and conflicts, but they are not files, so I think just "file"
is unambiguous.
I left `testutils::write_normal_file()` because there it's used to
mean "not executable file" (there's also a `write_executable_file()`).
I left `working_copy::FileType::Normal` since renaming `Normal` there
to `File` would also suggest we should rename `FileType`, and I don't
know what would be a better name for that type.
We currently get the hostname and username from the `whoami` crate. We
do that in lib crate, without giving the caller a way to override
them. That seems wrong since it might be used in a server and
performing operations on behalf of some other user. This commit makes
the hostname and username configurable, so the calling crate can pass
them in. If they have not been passed in, we still default to the
values from the `whoami` crate.
The `testutils` module should ideally not be part of the library
dependencies. Since they're used by the integration tests (and the CLI
tests), we need to move them to a separate crate to achieve that.
This moves the logic for handling the root commit when writing commits
from `CommitBuilder` into the individual backends. It always bothered
me a bit that the `commit::Commit` wrapper had a different idea of the
number of parents than the wrapped `backend::Commit` had.
With this change, the `LocalBackend` will now write the root commit in
the list of parents if it's there in the argument to
`write_commit()`. Note that root commit itself won't be written. The
main argument for not writing it is that we can then keep the fake
all-zeros hash for it. One argument for writing it, if we were to do
so, is that it would make the set of written objects consistent, so
any future processing of them (such as GC) doesn't have to know to
ignore the root commit in the list of parents.
We still treat the two backends the same, so the user won't be allowed
to create merges including the root commit even when using the
`LocalBackend`.
The `CommitBuilder::store` field is used only in
`CommitBuilder::write_to_repo()`, but we can easily get access to the
`Store` from the `repo` argument there, so let's remove the field.
We don't even have any settings that affect the repo, so there's no
point in passing the settings. I think this was a leftover from before
we separated out the "workspace" concept; now we no longer create a
working-copy commit when we initialize a repo (we do that when we
attach the workspace).
When a directory is missing in one merge input (base or one side), we
would consider that a merge conflict. This patch changes that so we
instead merge trees by treating the missing tree as empty.
We do it for all the other kinds of objects already. It's useful to
have the path for backends that store objects by path (we don't have
any such backends yet). I think the reason I didn't do it from the
beginning was because we had separate `RepoPath` types for files and
directories back then.
If we have recorded in `MutableRepo` that commits have been abandoned
or rewritten, we should always rebase descendants before committing
the transaction (otherwise there's no reason to record the
rewrites). That's not much of a risk in the CLI because we already
have that logic in a central place there (`finish_transaction()`), but
other users of the library crate could easily miss it. Perhaps we
should automatically do any necessary rebasing we commit the
transaction in the library crate instead, but for now let's just have
a check for that to catch such bugs.
Most tests need a repo but don't need a working copy. Let's have a
function for setting up a test repo. But first, let's free up the name
`init_repo()` by renaming it to `init_workspace()` (which is also more
accurate).
This fixes a bug I've run into somewhat frequently. What happens is
that if you have a conflict on top of another conflict and you resolve
the conflict in the bottom commit, we just simplify the `Conflict`
object in the second commit, but we don't try to resolve the new
conflict. That shows up as an unexpected "conflict" in `jj log`
output, and when you check out the commit, there are actually no
conflicts, so you can just `jj squash` right away.
This patch fixes that bug. It also teaches the code to work with more
than 3 parts in the merge, so if there's a 5-way conflict, for
example, we still try to resolve it if possible.
I had initially hoped that the type-safety provided by the separate
`FileRepoPath` and `DirRepoPath` types would help prevent bugs. I'm
not sure if it has prevented any bugs so far. It has turned out that
there are more cases than I had hoped where it's unknown whether a
path is for a directory or a file. One such example is for the path of
a conflict. Since it can be conflict between a directory and a file,
it doesn't make sense to use either. Instead we end up with quite a
bit of conversion between the types. I feel like they are not worth
the extra complexity. This patch therefore starts simplifying it by
replacing uses of `FileRepoPath` by `RepoPath`. `DirRepoPath` is a
little more complicated because its string form ends with a '/'. I'll
address that in separate patches.
I'm preparing to publish an early version before someone takes the
name(s) on crates.io. "jj" has been taken by a seemingly useless
project, but "jujube" and "jujube-lib" are still available, so let's
use those.
