Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] branch: move --set-upstream-to behavior to setup_tracking()
Date: Mon, 6 Dec 2021 13:55:26 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211206215528.97050-2-chooglen@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211206215528.97050-1-chooglen@google.com>
This refactor is motivated by a desire to add a "dry_run" parameter to
create_branch() that will validate whether or not a branch can be
created without actually creating it - this behavior be used in a
subsequent commit that adds `git branch --recurse-submodules topic`.
Adding "dry_run" is not obvious because create_branch() is also used to
set tracking information without creating a branch, i.e. when using
--set-upstream-to. This appears to be a leftover from 4fc5006676 (Add
branch --set-upstream, 2010-01-18), when --set-upstream would sometimes
create a branch and sometimes update tracking information without
creating a branch. However, we no longer support --set-upstream, so it
makes more sense to set tracking information with another function, like
setup_tracking(), and use create_branch() only to create branches. When
this is done, it will be trivial to add "dry_run".
Do this refactor by moving the branch validation and dwim logic from
create_branch() into a new function, validate_branch_start(), and call
it from setup_tracking(). Now that setup_tracking() can perform dwim and
tracking setup without creating a branch, use it in `git branch
--set-upstream-to` and remove unnecessary behavior from create_branch().
Since there were none, add tests for creating a branch with `--force`.

As Jonathan noted in v1, the diff is quite large. I could shrink this
by forward-declaring setup_tracking() so that the function definitions
are in the same order; let me know if that would be preferred.
