Introduce "reset type" flag to "git reset"
I have been feeling that the current behaviour of "git reset" is
not quite optimal, but so far could not express exactly what I
felt was wrong with it. This patch clarifies it.
There are at least two situations you may want to "reset" your
working tree.
1. You made a mess in your working tree. You want to switch
back to a known good state and start over. This mess may be
a result of your own editing, a merge that had too many
conflicting changes that you do not feel like to resolve by
hand at this moment, or a botched application of a patch you
received from somewhere.
In this case, you would want to have "git reset HEAD" reset
the index file to the tree read from the HEAD commit and the
files in the working tree to match index (i.e. "git status"
should say "Nothing to commit", without any "unrecorded
changes").
The current behaviour leaves the files in the working tree
intact, which requires you to run "git checkout -f". Also
you need to remember "rm -f" any files that the botched patch
may have left in the working tree if the purpose of this
"reset" is to attempt to apply it again; most likely the
patch would fail if such a file is left behind.
2. You have discovered that commits you made earlier need to be
reorganized. The simplest example is to undo the last
commit, re-edit some files, and redo the commit. Another
simple eample is to undo the last two commits, and commit the
changes in those two commits as a single commit.
In this case, you would want to have "git reset HEAD^" reset
the $GIT_DIR/HEAD to the commit object name of the parent
commit of the current commit (i.e. rewinding one commit),
leave the index file and the files in the working tree in a
state where you can easily make a commit that records a tree
that resembles what you have in the current index file and
the working tree.
The current behaviour is almost OK for this purpose, except
that you need to find which files you need to manually run
"git add" yourself. They are files that are in the original
HEAD commit and not in the commit you are resetting to.
The default without the type flag is to do "--mixed", which is
the current behaviour.
$ git reset [ --hard | --soft | --mixed ] [ <commit-ish> ]
A hard reset would be used for 1 and works in this way:
(1) remember the set of paths that appear in the current
index file (which may even have unmerged entries) and
the current $GIT_DIR/HEAD commit.
(2) "read-tree --reset" the specified <commit-ish> (default
to HEAD), followed by "checkout-cache -f -u -a".
(3) remove any files that appear in (1) but not in
<commit-ish> from the working tree.
(4) backup $GIT_DIR/HEAD to $GIT_DIR/ORIG_HEAD and update
$GIT_DIR/HEAD with the specified <commit-ish>.
(5) remove leftover $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD
A soft reset would be used for 2 and works in this way:
(1) Make sure that the index file is merged and we do not
have MERGE_HEAD; otherwise it does not make sense to do
soft reset.
(2) backup $GIT_DIR/HEAD to $GIT_DIR/ORIG_HEAD and update
$GIT_DIR/HEAD with the specified <commit-ish>.
Note that with the current behaviour, "git diff" is the way to
see what could be committed immediately after "git reset". With
the "soft reset" described here you would need to say "git diff
HEAD" to find that out.
I am not sure what mixed reset (the current behaviour) is good
for. If nobody comes up with a good use case it may not be a
bad idea to remove it.

The 'git show-branches' command turns out to be reasonably useful,

- Unlike show-branches, it can take --heads (show me all my

- It can take --more=<number> to show beyond the merge-base.
- It shows the short name for each commit in the extended SHA1
syntax.
- It can find merge-base for more than two heads.
Examples:
$ git show-branch --more=6 HEAD
is almost the same as "git log --pretty=oneline --max-count=6".
$ git show-branch --merge-base master mhf misc
finds the merge base of the three given heads.
$ git show-branch master mhf misc
shows logs from the top of these three branch heads, up to their
common ancestor commit is shown.
$ git show-branch --all --more=10
is poor-man's gitk, showing all the tags and heads, and
going back 10 commits beyond the merge base of those refs.

[PATCH] git-ls-files: generalized pathspecs
This generalizes the git "glob" string to be a lot more like the
git-diff-* pathspecs (but there are still differences: the diff family
doesn't do any globbing, and because the diff family always generates the
full native pathname, it doesn't have the issue with "..").
It does three things:
- it allows multiple matching strings, ie you can do things like
git-ls-files arch/i386/ include/asm-i386/ | xargs grep pattern
- the "matching" criteria is a combination of "exact path component
match" (the same as the git-diff-* family), and "fnmatch()". However,
you should be careful with the confusion between the git-ls-files
internal globbing and the standard shell globbing, ie
git-ls-files fs/*.c
does globbing in the shell, and does something totally different from
git-ls-files 'fs/*.c'
which does the globbing inside git-ls-files.
The latter has _one_ pathspec with a wildcard, and will match any .c
file anywhere under the fs/ directory, while the former has been
expanded by the shell into having _lots_ of pathspec entries, all of
which are just in the top-level fs/ subdirectory. They will happily
be matched exactly, but we will thus miss all the subdirectories under
fs/.
As a result, the first one will (on the current kernel) match 55 files,
while the second one will match 664 files!
- it uses the generic path prefixing, so that ".." and friends at the
beginning of the path spec work automatically
NOTE! When generating relative pathname output (the default), a
pathspec that causes the base to be outside the current working
directory will be rejected with an error message like:
fatal: git-ls-files: cannot generate relative filenames containing '..'
because we do not actually generate ".." in the output. However, the
".." format works fine for the --full-name case:
cd arch/i386/kernel
git-ls-files --full-name ../mm/
results in
arch/i386/mm/Makefile
arch/i386/mm/boot_ioremap.c
arch/i386/mm/discontig.c
arch/i386/mm/extable.c
arch/i386/mm/fault.c
arch/i386/mm/highmem.c
arch/i386/mm/hugetlbpage.c
arch/i386/mm/init.c
arch/i386/mm/ioremap.c
arch/i386/mm/mmap.c
arch/i386/mm/pageattr.c
arch/i386/mm/pgtable.c
Perhaps more commonly, the generic path prefixing means that "." and
"./" automatically get simplified and work properly.

[PATCH] Make "git-ls-files" work in subdirectories
This makes git-ls-files work inside a relative directory, and also adds
some rudimentary filename globbing support. For example, in the kernel you
can now do
cd arch/i386
git-ls-files
and it will show all files under that subdirectory (and it will have
removed the "arch/i386/" prefix unless you give it the "--full-name"
option, so that you can feed the result to "xargs grep" or similar).
The filename globbing is kind of strange: it does _not_ follow normal
globbing rules, although it does look "almost" like a normal file glob
(and it uses the POSIX.2 "fnmatch()" function).
The glob pattern (there can be only one) is always split into a "directory
part" and a "glob part", where the directory part is defined as any full
directory path without any '*' or '?' characters. The "glob" part is
whatever is left over.
For example, when doing
git-ls-files 'arch/i386/p*/*.c'
the "directory part" is is "arch/i386/", and the "glob part" is "p*/*.c".
The directory part will be added to the prefix, and handled efficiently
(ie we will not be searching outside of that subdirectory), while the glob
part (if anything is left over) will be used to trigger "fnmatch()"
matches.
This is efficient and very useful, but can result in somewhat
non-intuitive behaviour.
For example:
git-ls-files 'arch/i386/*.[ch]'
will find all .c and .h files under arch/i386/, _including_ things in
lower subdirectories (ie it will match "arch/i386/kernel/process.c",
because "kernel/process.c" will match the "*.c" specifier).
Also, while
git-ls-files arch/i386/
will show all files under that subdirectory, doing the same without the
final slash would try to show the file "i386" under the "arch/"
subdirectory, and since there is no such file (even if there is such a
_directory_) it will not match anything at all.
These semantics may not seem intuitive, but they are actually very
practical. In particular, it makes it very simple to do
git-ls-files fs/*.c | xargs grep some_pattern
and it does what you want.
