Subject: [PATCH v2] cherry-pick: refuse cherry-pick sequence if index is dirty
Date: Sun, 28 May 2023 09:08:08 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1535.v2.git.1685264889088.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1535.git.1684830767336.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Tao Klerks <tao@klerks.biz>

Cherry-pick, like merge or rebase, refuses to run when there are changes
in the index. However, if a cherry-pick sequence is requested, this
refusal happens "too late": when the cherry-pick sequence has already
started, and an "--abort" or "--quit" is needed to resume normal
operation.

Normally, when an operation is "in-progress" and you want to go back to
where you were before, "--abort" is the right thing to run. If you run
"git cherry-pick --abort" in this specific situation, however, your
staged changes are destroyed as part of the abort! Generally speaking,
the abort process assumes any changes in the index are part of the
operation to be aborted.

Add an earlier check in the cherry-pick sequence process to ensure that
the index is clean, introducing a new general "quit if index dirty" function
derived from the existing worktree-level function used in rebase and pull.
Also add a test.

    cherry-pick: refuse cherry-pick sequence if index is dirty
    
    V2: In the first version I had reused the require_clean_work_tree()
    function, which meant I accidentally tightened the requirements for
    sequence cherry-pick, from "no staged changes" to "no staged or
    uncommitted changes".
    
    I've now introduced a new function require_clean_index() reusing the
    existing code.
    
    In the thread, Junio suggested it might make sense to make the
    requirements for sequence-cherry-pick the same as rebase - either to
    tighten them as I accidentally did before, or relax rebase to match the
    existing behavior of merge and cherry-pick. I am not sure the right way
    to make such changes would be, I think it might warrant a new
    configuration option, but I definitely think it is beyond the scope of
    this simple bugfix.
