merge-ort: handle book-keeping around two- and three-way content merge

[thirdparty/git.git] / merge-ort.c

/*
 * "Ostensibly Recursive's Twin" merge strategy, or "ort" for short.  Meant
 * as a drop-in replacement for the "recursive" merge strategy, allowing one
 * to replace
 *
 *   git merge [-s recursive]
 *
 * with
 *
 *   git merge -s ort
 *
 * Note: git's parser allows the space between '-s' and its argument to be
 * missing.  (Should I have backronymed "ham", "alsa", "kip", "nap, "alvo",
 * "cale", "peedy", or "ins" instead of "ort"?)

         * info->versions:
         *
         *     always contains the unprocessed entries and their
         *     version_info information.  For example, after the first five
         *     entries above, info->versions would be:
         *
         *         xtract.c     <xtract.c's version_info>
         *         token.txt    <token.txt's version_info>
         *         umm.c        <src/moduleB/umm.c's version_info>
         *         stuff.h      <src/moduleB/stuff.h's version_info>
         *         baz.c        <src/moduleB/baz.c's version_info>
         *
         *     Once a subdirectory is completed we remove the entries in
         *     that subdirectory from info->versions, writing it as a tree
         *     (write_tree()).  Thus, as soon as we get to src/moduleB,
         *     info->versions would be updated to
         *
         *         xtract.c     <xtract.c's version_info>
         *         token.txt    <token.txt's version_info>
         *         moduleB      <src/moduleB's version_info>
         *
         * info->offsets:
         *
         *     helps us track which entries in info->versions correspond to
         *     which directories.  When we are N directories deep (e.g. 4
         *     for src/modA/submod/subdir/), we have up to N+1 unprocessed
         *     directories (+1 because of toplevel dir).  Corresponding to
         *     the info->versions example above, after processing five entries
         *     info->offsets will be:
         *
         *         ""           0
         *         src/moduleB  2
         *
         *     which is used to know that xtract.c & token.txt are from the
         *     toplevel dirctory, while umm.c & stuff.h & baz.c are from the
         *     src/moduleB directory.  Again, following the example above,
         *     once we need to process src/moduleB, then info->offsets is
         *     updated to
         *
         *         ""           0
         *         src          2
         *
         *     which says that moduleB (and only moduleB so far) is in the
         *     src directory.
         *
         *     One unique thing to note about info->offsets here is that
         *     "src" was not added to info->offsets until there was a path
         *     (a file OR directory) immediately below src/ that got
         *     processed.
         *
         * Since process_entry() just appends new entries to info->versions,
         * write_completed_directory() only needs to do work if the next path
         * is in a directory that is different than the last directory found
         * in info->offsets.
