75
76This sample hook safeguards topic branches that have been
77published from being rewound.
78
79The workflow assumed here is:
80
81 * Once a topic branch forks from "master", "master" is never
82 merged into it again (either directly or indirectly).
83
84 * Once a topic branch is fully cooked and merged into "master",
85 it is deleted. If you need to build on top of it to correct
86 earlier mistakes, a new topic branch is created by forking at
87 the tip of the "master". This is not strictly necessary, but
88 it makes it easier to keep your history simple.
89
90 * Whenever you need to test or publish your changes to topic
91 branches, merge them into "next" branch.
92
93The script, being an example, hardcodes the publish branch name
94to be "next", but it is trivial to make it configurable via
95$GIT_DIR/config mechanism.
96
97With this workflow, you would want to know:
98
99(1) ... if a topic branch has ever been merged to "next". Young
100 topic branches can have stupid mistakes you would rather
101 clean up before publishing, and things that have not been
102 merged into other branches can be easily rebased without
103 affecting other people. But once it is published, you would
104 not want to rewind it.
105
106(2) ... if a topic branch has been fully merged to "master".
107 Then you can delete it. More importantly, you should not
108 build on top of it -- other people may already want to
109 change things related to the topic as patches against your
110 "master", so if you need further changes, it is better to
111 fork the topic (perhaps with the same name) afresh from the
112 tip of "master".
113
114Let's look at this example:
115
116 o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "next"
117 / / / /
118 / a---a---b A / /
119 / / / /
120 / / c---c---c---c B /
121 / / / \ /
122 / / / b---b C \ /
123 / / / / \ /
124 ---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "master"
125
126
127A, B and C are topic branches.
128
129 * A has one fix since it was merged up to "next".
130
131 * B has finished. It has been fully merged up to "master" and "next",
132 and is ready to be deleted.
133
134 * C has not merged to "next" at all.
135
136We would want to allow C to be rebased, refuse A, and encourage
137B to be deleted.
138
139To compute (1):
140
141 git-rev-list ^master ^topic next
142 git-rev-list ^master next
143
144 if these match, topic has not merged in next at all.
145
146To compute (2):
147
148 git-rev-list master..topic
149
150 if this is empty, it is fully merged to "master".
