 No, it isn't. Not by git-gui at least. Check /tmp/hook.log with the
 hook I provided...

 So what you mean is that the hook is not executed with the correct 
 parameters?
 Could you please provide the output of the /tmp/hook.log file (I can't
 reproduce right now) ?

 It only runs for New commit (possibly with merge or squash as
 arguments). In my case the log is:
 .git/PREPARE_COMMIT_MSG
 .git/PREPARE_COMMIT_MSG
 .git/PREPARE_COMMIT_MSG
 ...

 Not running the hook for amend is another problem.

 What I referred to was that handling the hook's result is done without
 checking if the state has changed while it was running, like Fredrik
 has already pointed out.

Yep, I've had a quick look at that, and clearly the problem seems to
come from git-gui.
I have absolutely no knowledge of TCL so I won't be able to help.
Indeed, from what I've seen it looks like prepare-commit-message hook
is not called in amend case.

I cc'ed Pat Thoyts as he's the maintainer of git-gui.

Sorry for not being able to help any further on this one.

Antoine,

git gui replaces amend message when prepare-commit-msg hook is used

2013-07-04 Thread Orgad Shaneh
Hi,

If a prepare-commit-msg hook is used, git gui executes it for New Commit.

If the New Commit is selected, and then immediately Amend (before
the hook returns), when the hook returns the message is replaced with
the one produced by the hook.

I don't get it. The message from the hook is replaced with the message
from the hook?

What I don't get is how you can amend to a commit that doesn't yet
exists. How is that possible?

Did I say anything about a commit that doesn't exist? I have a commit
which I want to amend. If I click the Amend button before the hook is
done, this commit's message is replaced (in the editor, not the actual
commit) with the hook's result.

The message that should appear in the editor should come from the
amended commit, not from the hook.

When you click on amend the prepare-commit-msg hook is runned. But you
say that you click amend before the hook is done. Which hook are you
talking about in this case? Are you clicking twice on amend?

I think this is a problem with the hook you are running.  The hook is
given arguments specifying the message file and optionally the source of
whatever is already in the file (see githooks(5) for details).

It sounds like your hook is blindly overwriting the file, rather than
preserving its contents in the cases where you wish to do so.

Let me try to explain.

When git gui is executed, it calls the prepare-commit-msg script with
.git/PREPARE_COMMIT_MSG as an argument.

When amend is selected, the hook is *not* called at all (what would it
prepare? The message is already committed)

Use the following hook to reproduce:
--- snip ---
#!/bin/sh

sleep 5
echo $@  /tmp/hook.log
echo 'Hello hook'  $1
--- snip ---

Now run git gui (or press F5 if it is already running), and before 5
seconds pass, click Amend last commit. You'll see the commit's
message, but when the 5 seconds pass it is replaced with Hello hook.
That's the bug.

Yeah I got what you mean, it looks like it's an update problem of the
test-box in git-gui. You can also get that textbox to be completely
empty if you click back and foward between new commit and amend. The
hook is not always runned.

I can confirm this bug. I don't think it related to pure git but to
git-gui.

I imagine that new commit exectures the prepare-commit-msg hook and
replaces the textbox content with it. Something that should be correct,
but the you've already told the textbox to have an other value (the
value of the commit to amend).

There should be a check before writing to the textbox if new commit
still is set.

Yes, and that's a bug in the hook.  The hook is called with a second
argument commit but it is ignoring this and blindly overwriting the
message.  githooks(5) says:

prepare-commit-msg
This hook is invoked by git commit right after preparing the default
log message, and before the editor is started.

It takes one to three parameters. The first is the name of the
file that contains the commit log message. The second is the
source of the commit message, and can be: message (if a -m or -F
option was given); template (if a -t option was given or the
configuration option commit.template is set); merge (if the
commit is a merge or a .git/MERGE_MSG file exists); squash (if a
.git/SQUASH_MSG file exists); or commit, followed by a commit
SHA1 (if a -c, -C or --amend option was given).

If the exit status is non-zero, git commit will abort.

The purpose of the hook is to edit the message file in place,
and it is not suppressed by the --no-verify option. A non-zero
exit means a failure of the hook and aborts the commit. It
should not be used as replacement for pre-commit hook.

Your problem is that your hook script is not checking $2 so it is
overwriting the message even when you do not want to do so.
