Merge branch 'sb/pack-protocol-doc-nak' into maint
[thirdparty/git.git] / contrib / subtree / todo
1
2 delete tempdir
3
4 'git subtree rejoin' option to do the same as --rejoin, eg. after a
5 rebase
6
7 --prefix doesn't force the subtree correctly in merge/pull:
8 "-s subtree" should be given an explicit subtree option?
9 There doesn't seem to be a way to do this. We'd have to
10 patch git-merge-subtree. Ugh.
11 (but we could avoid this problem by generating squashes with
12 exactly the right subtree structure, rather than using
13 subtree merge...)
14
15 add a 'log' subcommand to see what's new in a subtree?
16
17 add to-submodule and from-submodule commands
18
19 automated tests for --squash stuff
20
21 "add" command non-obviously requires a commitid; would be easier if
22 it had a "pull" sort of mode instead
23
24 "pull" and "merge" commands should fail if you've never merged
25 that --prefix before
26
27 docs should provide an example of "add"
28
29 note that the initial split doesn't *have* to have a commitid
30 specified... that's just an optimization
31
32 if you try to add (or maybe merge?) with an invalid commitid, you
33 get a misleading "prefix must end with /" message from
34 one of the other git tools that git-subtree calls. Should
35 detect this situation and print the *real* problem.
36
37 "pull --squash" should do fetch-synthesize-merge, but instead just
38 does "pull" directly, which doesn't work at all.
39
40 make a 'force-update' that does what 'add' does even if the subtree
41 already exists. That way we can help people who imported
42 subtrees "incorrectly" (eg. by just copying in the files) in
43 the past.
44
45 guess --prefix automatically if possible based on pwd
46
47 make a 'git subtree grafts' that automatically expands --squash'd
48 commits so you can see the full history if you want it.
