Merge branch 'jk/notes-merge-from-anywhere'

"git notes merge" used to limit the source of the merged notes tree to somewhere under refs/notes/ hierarchy, which was too limiting when inventing a workflow to exchange notes with remote repositories using remote-tracking notes trees (located in e.g. refs/remote-notes/ or somesuch). * jk/notes-merge-from-anywhere: notes: allow merging from arbitrary references

notes: allow merging from arbitrary references

2016-01-17T21:59:01Z

Create a new expansion function, expand_loose_notes_ref which will first check whether the ref can be found using get_sha1. If it can't be found then it will fallback to using expand_notes_ref. The content of the strbuf will not be changed if the notes ref can be located using get_sha1. Otherwise, it may be updated as done by expand_notes_ref. Since we now support merging from non-notes refs, remove the test case associated with that behavior. Add a test case for merging from a non-notes ref.

notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref

2016-01-12T23:10:01Z

init_notes() is the main point of entry to the notes API. It ensures that the input can be used as ref, because it needs a ref to update to store notes tree after modifying it. There however are many use cases where notes tree is only read, e.g. "git log --notes=...". Any notes-shaped treeish could be used for such purpose, but it is not allowed due to existing restriction. Allow treeish expressions to be used in the case the notes tree is going to be used without write "permissions". Add a flag to distinguish whether the notes tree is intended to be used read-only, or will be updated. With this change, operations that use notes read-only can be fed any notes-shaped tree-ish can be used, e.g. git log --notes=notes@{1}. Signed-off-by: Mike Hommey Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

format_note(): simplify API

2012-10-18T05:42:40Z

We either stuff the notes message without modification for %N userformat, or format it for human consumption. Using two bits is an overkill that does not benefit anybody. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

notes: refactor display notes default handling

2011-03-29T21:31:59Z

This is in preparation for more notes-related revision command-line options. The "suppress_default_notes" option is renamed to "use_default_notes", and is now a tri-state with values less than one indicating "not set". If the value is "not set", then we show default refs if and only if no other refs were given. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

notes: refactor display notes extra refs field

2011-03-29T21:30:54Z

There's no need to use an extra pointer, which just ends up leaking memory. The fact that the list is empty tells us the same thing. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

notes: make expand_notes_ref globally accessible

2011-03-29T21:29:17Z

This function is useful for other commands besides "git notes" which want to let users refer to notes by their shorthand name. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
