This consists of two loosely related topics on improving conflicted merge
resolution support.

The early part of the series is what you already saw.  In addition to
recording a conflicted merge in the RCS merge style we have traditionally
used, this allows you to optionally use "diff3 -m" style.  The difference
is that the latter format shows the part from the common ancestor that
corresponds to the parts both sides modified to cause the conflict, in
addition to the changes done on each side.  This can be chosen by setting
a configuration variable.  Rerere mechanism is updated to understand this
new format as well, and conflicts from either formats interoperate well,
because rerere mechanism only records and uses the changes made on each
side, not what was in the common ancestor.

The last four patches are to "git checkout" that checks things out of the
index.  When resolving conflicts, sometimes you would screw up the state
of the working tree so badly that you would wish to redo the merge from
the beginning for one file, without having to redo the whole merge.  Some
other times, you already know changes made on one side already solves
everything the other side attempted to do, and would want to take the
change from that side as a whole.  New options supported by "git checkout"
when checking out from the index for these purposes are:

 * git checkout -m -- path

   This recreates the merge using information staged in stages 1/2/3;
 
 * git checkout --ours -- path

   This writes 'our' version (stage #2) out for the path to the working
   tree;

 * git checkout --theirs -- path

   This writes 'their' version (stage #3) out for the path to the working
   tree;

None of these operations mark the path resolved.  They are to help you
prepare the working tree into a shape suitable as the resolution, and you
will still conclude it with "git add path".

Junio C Hamano (12):
  xdl_fill_merge_buffer(): separate out a too deeply nested function
  xdiff-merge: optionally show conflicts in "diff3 -m" style
  xmerge.c: minimum readability fixups
  xmerge.c: "diff3 -m" style clips merge reduction level to EAGER or
    less
  rerere.c: use symbolic constants to keep track of parsing states
  rerere: understand "diff3 -m" style conflicts with the original
  merge.conflictstyle: choose between "merge" and "diff3 -m" styles
  git-merge-recursive: learn to honor merge.conflictstyle
  checkout: do not check out unmerged higher stages randomly
  checkout: allow ignoring unmerged paths when checking out of the
    index
  checkout --ours/--theirs
  checkout -m: recreate merge when checking out of unmerged index

This simply moves code around to make a separate function that prepares
a single conflicted hunk with markers into the buffer.

When showing conflicting merges, we traditionally followed RCS's merge
output format.  The output shows:

 <<<<<<<
 postimage from one side;
 =======
 postimage of the other side; and
 >>>>>>>

Some poeple find it easier to be able to understand what is going on when
they can view the common ancestor's version, which is used by "diff3 -m",
which shows:

 <<<<<<<
 postimage from one side;
 |||||||
 shared preimage;
 =======
 postimage of the other side; and
 >>>>>>>

This is an initial step to bring that as an optional feature to git.
Only "git merge-file" has been converted, with "--diff3" option.

This replaces hardcoded magic constants with symbolic ones for
readability, and swaps one if/else blocks to better match the
order in which 0/1/2 variables are handled to nearby codepath.

  To: git

When showing a conflicting merge result, and "--diff3 -m" style is asked
for, this patch makes sure that the merge reduction level does not exceed
XDL_MERGE_EAGER.  This is because "diff3 -m" style output would not make
sense for anything more aggressive than XDL_MERGE_EAGER, because of the
way how the merge reduction works.

"git merge-file" no longer has to force MERGE_EAGER when "--diff3" is
asked for because of this change.

Suppose a common ancestor (shared preimage) is modified to postimage #1
and #2 (each letter represents one line):

                     #####
    postimage#1: 1234ABCDE789
                    |    /
                    |   /
    preimage:    123456789
                    |   \
    postimage#2: 1234AXYE789
                     ####

XDL_MERGE_MINIMAL and XDL_MERGE_EAGER would:

 (1) find the s/56/ABCDE/ done on one side and s/56/AXYE/ done on the
     other side,

 (2) notice that they touch an overlapping area, and

 (3) mark it as a conflict, "ABCDE vs AXYE".

The difference between the two algorithms is that EAGER drops the hunk
altogether if the postimages match (i.e. both sides modified the same
way), while MINIMAL keeps it.  There is no other operation performed to
the hunk.  As the result, lines marked with "#" in the above picure will
be in the RCS merge style output like this (letters <, = and > represent
conflict marker lines):

    output:      1234<ABCDE=AXYE>789    ; with MINIMAL/EAGER

The part from the preimage that corresponds to these conflicting changes
is "56", which is what "diff3 -m" style output adds to it:

    output:      1234<ABCDE|56=AXYE>789 ; in "diff3 -m" style

Now, XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS looks at the differences between the changes two
postimages made in order to reduce the number of lines in the conflicting
regions.  It notices that both sides start their new contents with "A",
and excludes it from the output (it also excludes "E" for the same
reason).  The conflict that used to be "ABCDE vs AXYE" is now "BCD vs XY":

    output:      1234A<BCD=XY>E789      ; with ZEALOUS

There could even be matching parts between two postimages in the middle.
Instead of one side rewriting the shared "56" to "ABCDE" and the other
side to "AXYE", imagine the case where the postimages are "ABCDE" and
"AXCYE", in which case instead of having one conflicted hunk "BCD vs XY",
you would have two conflicting hunks "B vs X" and "D vs Y".

In either case, once you reduce "ABCDE vs AXYE" to "BCD vs XY" (or "ABCDE
vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs Y"), there is no part from the preimage
that corresponds to the conflicting change made in both postimages
anymore.  In other words, conflict reduced by ZEALOUS algorithm cannot be
expressed in "diff3 -m" style.  Representing the last illustration like
this is misleading to say the least:

    output:      1234A<BCD|56=XY>E789   ; broken "diff3 -m" style

because the preimage was not ...4A56E... to begin with.  "A" and "E" are
common only between the postimages.

Even worse, once a single conflicting hunk is split into multiple ones
(recall the example of breaking "ABCDE vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs
Y"), there is no sane way to distribute the preimage text across split
conflicting hunks.

These hardcoded integers make the code harder to follow than necessary;
replace them with enums to make it easier to read, before adding support
for optionally parsing "diff3 -m" style conflict markers.

This teaches rerere to grok conflicts expressed in "diff3 -m" style
output, where the version from the common ancestor is output after the
first side, preceded by a "|||||||" line.

The rerere database needs to keep only the versions from two sides, so the
code parses the original copy and discards it.

This teaches the low-level ll_xdl_merge() routine to honor
merge.conflictstyle configuration variable, so that merge-recursive
strategy can show the conflicts in the style of user's choice.

During a conflicted merge when you have unmerged stages for a
path F in the index, if you said:

    $ git checkout F

we rewrote F as many times as we have stages for it, and the
last one (typically "theirs") was left in the work tree, without
resolving the conflict.

This fixes it by noticing that a specified pathspec pattern
matches an unmerged path, and by erroring out.

Earlier we made "git checkout $pathspec" to atomically refuse
the operation of $pathspec matched any path with unmerged
stages.  This patch allows:

    $ git checkout -f a b c

to ignore, instead of error out on, such unmerged paths.  The
fix to prevent checkout of an unmerged path from random stages
is still there.

* [PATCH 12/12] checkout -m: recreate merge when checking out of unmerged index

This teaches git-checkout to recreate a merge out of unmerged
index entries while resolving conflicts.

With this patch, checking out an unmerged path from the index
now have the following possibilities:

 * Without any option, an attempt to checkout an unmerged path
   will atomically fail (i.e. no other cleanly-merged paths are
   checked out either);

 * With "-f", other cleanly-merged paths are checked out, and
   unmerged paths are ignored;

 * With "--ours" or "--theirs, the contents from the specified
   stage is checked out;

 * With "-m" (we should add "--merge" as synonym), the 3-way merge
   is recreated from the staged object names and checked out.

Apart from renaming "i1" to "i", inverting the order of the if clauses, 
and making it more obvious that the calculation of size without dest is 
correct, this is a straight forward refactoring.

FWIW I do not follow your reasoning why --diff3 does not make sense for 
anything more eager than MERGE_EAGER.  All that ZEALOUS and ZEALOUS_ALNUM 
(the latter of which is useless at the moment, since it is not enabled for 
git-merge) do is change the way the conflicting regions are displayed, but 
they do not leave out conflicting regions.

So I actually suspect that ZEALOUS_ALNUM will be _especially_ useful with 
--diff3, since it is designed to skip the single curly brackets that would 
disrupt the reading pleasure otherwise.

Hmm.  This is not the Linux kernel, I think we could safely pass around 
two integers instead of one.

You rewrapped many function headers already; I wonder why this one was 
left out.

The rest looks pretty much obviously correct to me; I was too lazy/ran out 
of time to apply the patch and look through the resulting code, though, 
but I guess that you searched for "i1" and "chg1" and added the code for 
i0 and chg0 where necessary.

So: ACK.

Dscho

Everywhere else the code deals with variables var0, var1 and var2 in this
order, and that is because "if" blocks are consistently about changes made
on side#1 while "else" blocks are about changes made on side#2.  This
statement alone was inconsistent, and now it all reads 0, 1 and then 2.

I like that and started using the patches. Do you have any specific
area I should pay a special attention to?

This reminds me: when resolving a conflict in a git repo (when trying
something from next or pu), I often notice that I'd like to resolve it
the same way it was done on next or pu. IOW, copy the commit
resolution from some other merge commit. Maybe can be a way to use
rerere mechanism with that?

That's what I'm trying to implement on Dscho's suggestion. I'm still
just trying to understand the code, so any suggestions about how to
do this are very welcome.

If you know which merge I did you want to steal from, you can prime your
rerere database by pretending to be me, doing the merge.  Something like:

	$ git checkout $merge^1 ;# detach to the parent of merge
        $ git merge $merge^2 ;# pretend you were me to redo it
        $ git diff -R $merge | git apply --index ;# and get what I did
	$ git rerere ;# have rerere record the resolution

I ended up using

    $ git checkout Merge^1
    $ git merge Merge^2
    $ git diff -R Merge | git apply
    $ git diff -R Merge --name-only -z | git update-index -z --stdin
    $ git rerere

Just git apply --index complained about the files missing from the
index:

    $ git tag Merge c5e2ace70271b481632aaf987361027ca4592df6
    $ gco Merge^1
    Previous HEAD position was c5e2ace... Merge branch 'jc/better-conflict-resolution' into next

Well, it works, but it's a bit of work and hard to automate (needs a
working tree). An option to merge:

    $ git merge <branch>
    conflict ... investigate ... find a resolution in <resolution>
    $ git reset --hard
    $ git merge --rerere <resolution> branch
    check... Ok.
    $ git commit

or rerere:

    $ git merge <branch>
    conflict ... investigate ... find a resolution in <resolution>
    $ git rerere <resolution>
    $ git reset --hard
    $ git merge <branch>
    check... Ok.
    $ git commit

These could be more convenient.

Random idea: you could use a script that just replays the merges
present in history and lets rerere record them.  Like so:

-- 8< --
#!/bin/sh

. "$(git --exec-path)/git-sh-setup"

require_work_tree
git update-index --refresh || die "can't run with dirty index"

git rev-list --parents "$@" |
grep '.* .* .*' |
while read merge firstparent otherparents
do
	git checkout $firstparent >/dev/null 2>/dev/null
	git merge $otherparents >/dev/null
	if test -z "$(git ls-files -u)"; then
		echo -n 'no conflicts: '
		git --no-pager log -1 --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit $merge
		continue
	fi
	git rerere
	git ls-files -t | grep ^M | cut -c 3- | xargs git checkout $merge --
	git rerere
	git reset --hard >/dev/null 2>/dev/null
	echo -n 'recorded:     '
	git --no-pager log -1 --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit $merge
done
-- >8 --

The intended usage is like

  ./rerereimport.sh v1.6.0..origin/next

to import all resolutions in the specified range.  Granted, it's
probably not as good and definitely not as fast as an automatic
feature integrated with the merge machinery.

I think the last step should be "git read-tree --reset -u $merge" if we
really want the minimum  sequence.
