Subject: [PATCH 1/2] restore: require --source when combining --worktree and --staged
Date: Fri,  1 May 2020 04:27:45 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200501082746.23943-2-sunshine@sunshineco.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200501082746.23943-1-sunshine@sunshineco.com>

The default restore source for --worktree is the index, and the default
source for --staged is HEAD. When combining --worktree and --staged in
the same invocation, the restore source is ambiguous ("should it restore
from the index or from HEAD?"). To avoid such ambiguity, the git-restore
documentation has always stated that --source must be used when
combining --worktree and --staged. However, this restriction is not
actually enforced. Address this deficiency by making the implementation
match the documented behavior (to wit, error out if --source is not
specified when combining --worktree and --staged).

While at it, enhance the documentation to mention the --source
requirement prominently in the "Description" section (rather than only
in the description of the --source option itself).
