Re: [PATCH V2 0/7] fix hunk editing with 'commit -p -m'

2014-04-03 Thread Jonathan Nieder
Hi,

A quick note for the future:

Benoit Pierre wrote:

 This patch fixes the fact that hunk editing with 'commit -p -m' does not work:
 GIT_EDITOR is set to ':' to indicate to hooks that no editor will be launched,
 which result in the 'hunk edit' option not launching the editor (and selecting
 the whole hunk).

This information should have gone in the relevant patch's commit
message itself.  That way, people don't have to hunt down the relevant
mailing list thread to understand the patch.

Generally a cover letter should say as little as possible (mostly
here is what patch you might want to look at first, and here is an
overview of why the patches are in this particular order).

Thanks for a nice fix.  Perhaps we'll see more in the future, hence
this note. :)  And if you have ideas for where an explanation of this
could go in the documentation (somewhere in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches?), that would be welcome too.

Thanks,
Jonathan

[PATCH V2 0/7] fix hunk editing with 'commit -p -m'

2014-03-10 Thread Benoit Pierre
This patch fixes the fact that hunk editing with 'commit -p -m' does not work:
GIT_EDITOR is set to ':' to indicate to hooks that no editor will be launched,
which result in the 'hunk edit' option not launching the editor (and selecting
the whole hunk).

The fix consists in deferring the GIT_EDITOR override to the hook subprocess,
like it's already done for GIT_INDEX_FILE:
- rename 'run_hook' to 'run_hook_le' and change the first parameter to the 
environment to set
- add a 'run_hook_ve' variant that take a va_list
- add a new 'run_commit_hook' helper (to set both GIT_EDITOR and GIT_INDEX_FILE)
- the old 'run_hook' functionality is available as 'run_hook_with_custom_index'
  (and marked as deprecated in the last optional patch of this series)

N.B.: the merge builtin 'prepare-commit-msg' hook handling has also been updated
to be consistent; i.e. GIT_EDITOR will not be set to ':' if the '--edit' option
is used.

Benoit Pierre (7):
  merge hook tests: fix missing '' in test
  merge hook tests: use 'test_must_fail' instead of '!'
  test patch hunk editing with commit -p -m
  commit: fix patch hunk editing with commit -p -m
  merge: fix GIT_EDITOR override for commit hook
  merge hook tests: fix and update tests
  run-command: mark run_hook_with_custom_index as deprecated
