* Git push subtree fail unknown revision or path possibly due to missing git-subtree-split commit @ 2021-10-05 4:53 Eddie Ridwan 2021-10-07 2:52 ` Philippe Blain 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Eddie Ridwan @ 2021-10-05 4:53 UTC (permalink / raw) To: git Thank you for filling out a Git bug report! Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue. What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) git pull/push subtree as normal, although it is possible that one of the contributors to the subtree repo may have done a force push. What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) git push subtree to update the remote subtree repo. What happened instead? (Actual behavior) Failed to update the remote subtree repo. Error message: fatal: ambiguous argument '3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27^{commit}': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' could not rev-parse split hash 3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 from commit 8577911bf6183497cc246aa620e7be1b6becec29 What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? Failed to update the subtree repo, as expected; Anything else you want to add: I am not able to find the commit/hash 3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 in the repo. In gitx, I can see that the commit is a git-subtree-split. But it appears to no longer exist in the repo. How can I bypass or recover from this apparent missing commit?

I managed to find you Stack Overflow post [1] by Googling these commit hashes (!). Fortunately you mention the subtree URL in your question, and that's enough to go by in this case. > > What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? > > Failed to update the subtree repo, as expected; > > Anything else you want to add: > > I am not able to find the commit/hash > 3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 in the repo.

Here, I'm assuming that by "in the repo" you mean in a clone of the subtree repo, i.e. a clone of https://github.com/OpenSID/tema-natra. Indeed the commit with hash 3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 does not exist in such a clone. But, it still exists on GitHub: https://github.com/OpenSID/tema-natra/commit/3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 GitHub almost never removes commits in practice. This is good news, because it means you can fetch it locally. > How can I bypass or recover from this apparent missing commit? Any > help would be greatly appreciated. The git-subtree script does need the commit locally to work. So, just fetch the commit by its hash. In your project repository (the one which uses tema-natra as a subtree), run: git fetch https://github.com/OpenSID/tema-natra.git 3f44cc87ceb87df1d9171096596a824fc3050a27 This will download the needed objects. After that, you *should* be able to run your 'git subtree push' command. Note: I think that the 'premium' branch (mentioned in your Stack Overflow question) was indeed force-pushed, since 'git log --oneline dadcd0167^..' does not show the two commits that appear in your image [2] that read "Update statistik_pengunjung.php" Hope that helps, Philippe.

Your suggestion worked in that the 'missing' commit is now in my local clone. And now the git push subtree does not generate any error. Unfortunately it did not update the remote subtree repo. This is the only output of the push command: git subtree push --prefix themes/natra https://github.com/OpenSID/tema-natra.git premium git push using: https://github.com/OpenSID/tema-natra.git premium 1/ 131 (436) [436] On the other hand, git pull subtree continues to work as expected. Any suggestions on how to find out why the git push subtree command did not update the remote repo? Many thanks.

If you do want to debug further, I would suggest searching the mailing list (see https://lore.kernel.org/git/_/text/help/) for recent contributors to 'contrib/subtree' and CC-ing them. Maybe they will be able to provide more insight here. You also asked on Stack Overflow if you should try to delete the subtree cache. I think this could be something to try (I would guess if it's called a cache, it should be recreated).
