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, reusing the already-generalized method used for
rebase. Also add a test.

cherry-pick: refuse cherry-pick sequence if index is dirty
I encountered this data-loss bug (performing normally-safe operations
results in loss of local staged changes) while exploring
largely-unrelated changes as per thread
CAPMMpogFHnX2YPA4VmffmA0pku=43CQJ8iebCOkFm4ravBVTeg@mail.gmail.com on
"git checkout --force", and on the possibility of supporting same-commit
switch while preserving merge metadata.
I believe it is best handled as a standalone issue, it looks like a
simple bugfix to me, hence this separate patch.

My apologies for the premature submission: I've now realized I used
the wrong existing check. "git rebase" checks for a clean *worktree*
(ignoring untracked files), and that is what I reused here. What git
merge and git cherry-pick check for, and what I should have added a
check for here, is a clean *index*.
The current implementation of this patch is far too restrictive. It
doesn't break any tests (and maybe I should add one now that I know),
but it's doing the wrong thing.

I am ambivalent. What do we want to see in a multi-pick sequence
that is different from rebase? A single-step cherry-pick can fail
safely before it touches the index or the working tree files, but if
two-step cherry-pick, whose first step succeeds, finds that it
cannot safely carry out its second step without clobbering the local
changes made to the working tree files, what should happen? Are we
OK if we stopped in the state just after the first step has already
been done?
My (tentative) answer to that question is "yes", but the recovery
options of "cherry-pick" may want to work differently from what we
have seen them traditionally do. Namely, the user accepts that the
first step is already done, and stopping "cherry-pick", be it called
"--abort" or something else, should just remove the sequencer state
and behave as if the single-pick cherry-pick on the first step only
has just finished and leave such a state in the index and the
working tree. If that is what we are going to do, then it would
make sense to adopt the same safety semantics we use for "git merge"
and "git checkout" to ensure only that the index is clean, relying
on the unpack-trees machinery that stops before clobbering a locally
modified working tree files. But if we are to aim for "all-or-none"
semantics people expect from aborting "git rebase", I suspect that
it would be way too complicated to allow random changes in the
working tree files that we may only discover to be problems after
starting the sequence of replaying commits one-by-one, and "too
restrictive" check may be justified. To put it differently, if it
is too restrictive for multi-pick, then we would want to loosen it
for "git rebase" as well, as the issues are likely to be the same.
Thanks.

I would argue there are primarily three things that are different:
1. The checkout of the new base (and checkout of the original in an "--abort")
2. The support for and/or more-common expectation of "messing" with
commits as you go, eg squash, edit
3. The (partial) support for rebasing/recreating merge commits
I'm not sure to what extent any of these justify having tighter
restrictions on when we allow a rebase to start, though.

This is the current behavior: it stops before the specific pick that
is going to affect local unstaged changes, or if there are *any*
staged changes (in which case it stops as it's about to do the first
pick - the first time this check runs). The reasoning for this
behavior, as I understand it, is that the "--abort" strategy,
intending to "undo whatever I started doing here, including a conflict
resolution", resets the index. So as long as there is nothing you want
to keep in the index, and as long as we know that any previous picks
haven't impacted any files with unstaged changes, we're good.
The bug that I want to fix is that we only end up checking whether
there are changes in the index *after* we've already committed to
resetting the index upon later "--abort". It's a kind of catch-22:
we've detected that aborting would destroy your work, so we leave you
in a state where the most obvious thing to do is abort, so we destroy
your work... Of course, if you understand what's going on you can
choose to "--quit" and *not* lose your work... but this is completely
antithetical to the general intent of "--abort".
There's another, smaller flaw here I think, common to Merge,
Single-Cherry-Pick, and Sequence-Cherry-Pick, which is that *if* you
start with unstaged changes, and you end up in a conflict resolution
or "--no-commit" pause, and you then "git add" your unstaged changes
during that pause/resolution, and you *then* later "--abort"... then
your originally-unstaged changes are destroyed by the "--abort" - so
it has *not* taken you back to where you were before the operation
started. This is, to me as a user, non-obvious, and could potentially
lead to data loss. The only way I see to fix that, is to have *all* of
these operations refuse to operate on dirty worktrees altogether -
like rebase already does.
I suspect this level of "strictness" would be welcome to newcomers,
and less welcome to existing experienced users.

This behavior exists, and is called "--quit", right?
The semantics as I understand it are:
--quit: I know what I'm doing, just remove any "ongoing operation"
metadata and let me work with the current index and worktree.
--abort: This was a bad idea, please take me back to where I was
before I started this operation (without losing any work I had
ongoing, pls!)

I don't think I understand this argument. If we want to support both
sets of semantics, then that's exactly what "--quit" and "--abort"
achieve, right? (as long as we check for the dirty index *before*
committing to destroying the index in case of "--abort")

My argument for only changing "sequence-cherry-pick" here, and having
it (continue to) use the index-safety-only semantics of
single-cherry-pick and merge, is that *this is not a change in
cabability* - it is only a bugfix. Switching to the worktree-safety
semantics of rebase would be a substantial change in behavior beyond
the bugfix.
I, personally, would prefer to see the worktree-safety semantics of
rebase be used in *all* these operations, so I could no longer shoot
myself in the foot by starting a merge, accidentally staging some
previously-unstaged changes during conflict resolution, and then
losing those changes by "--abort"ing. But I expect that this kind of
change would need to be behind a config option of some sort, trading
off safety against low friction.
I could imagine a setting like "core.OperationWorktreeSafety", with
settings "default" (current behavior - rebase disallows dirty
worktrees, the others disallow dirty index), "strict" (all behave like
current rebase) and "lax" (all behave like merge).
As discussed elsewhere, I would also like to (have an option to) treat
untracked files as "worktree dirtiness"/unstaged changes in exactly
the same way as changes to tracked files - but that's another topic :)
I'll prepare a v2 with index-safety-only for sequence-cherry-pick for
now, please let me know if a (better-named)
"core.OperationWorktreeSafety" option is something that you'd be
interested in / that would make sense to you.
Thanks!

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.

"cherry-pick --abort" uses "reset --merge" so is slightly more
complicated than just resetting the index.

Indeed, being able to cherry-pick when the worktree is dirty is
occasionally useful but it is confusing when "cherry-pick --abort" does
not restore the pre-cherry-pick state (and as Junio says below it would
be complicated to preserve the initial changes when aborting).

I think it's worth considering a config option. One problem though is
that if the user has to actively enable it to get greater safety it wont
be much help to new users who don't know about it and if it is on by
default we'll be breaking someone's existing workflow.

Thanks for working on this, I think it useful to have this added safety
check.

I found the changes up to this point a bit confusing. Maybe I've missed
something but I don't think they are really related to fixing the bug
described in the commit message. As such they're a distraction from the
"real" fix.
> + requested_action_name = cherry_pick_action_name(requested_action);
We already have the function action_name() so I don't think we need to
add cherry_pick_action_name(). Also the name of the new function is
confusing as it may return "revert".
> + if (require_clean_index(r, requested_action_name,

How does this interact with "--no-commit"? I think the check that you
refer to in the commit message is in do_pick_commit() where we have
if (opts->no_commit) {
/*
* We do not intend to commit immediately. We just want to
* merge the differences in, so let's compute the tree
* that represents the "current" state for the merge machinery
* to work on.
*/
if (write_index_as_tree(&head, r->index, r->index_file, 0, NULL))
return error(_("your index file is unmerged."));
} else {
unborn = repo_get_oid(r, "HEAD", &head);
/* Do we want to generate a root commit? */
if (is_pick_or_similar(command) && opts->have_squash_onto &&
oideq(&head, &opts->squash_onto)) {
if (is_fixup(command))
return error(_("cannot fixup root commit"));
flags |= CREATE_ROOT_COMMIT;
unborn = 1;
} else if (unborn)
oidcpy(&head, the_hash_algo->empty_tree);
if (index_differs_from(r, unborn ? empty_tree_oid_hex() : "HEAD",
NULL, 0))
return error_dirty_index(r, opts);
}
I think it would be simpler to reuse the existing check by extracting
the "else" clause above into a separate function in sequencer.c and call
it here guarded by "if (!opts->no_commit)" as well as in that "else"
clause in do_pick_commit()

Understood, thanks - *if* I kept them, they should be in a separate
"prep refactor" commit.
The reason I did all this was just that I needed to build a new
message that displayed the correct cherry-pick action name - something
that was, in the existing code, done by repeating the entire advice
message. I didn't want to do the same, and if I was going add what I
needed to construct the message more dynamically I figured I should
update the existing repetition-based approach.

The reason I had added a new one was that action_name() also supported
"REPLAY_INTERACTIVE_REBASE", which should not be an option in the
codepath that I was refactoring. I wanted to retain the existing
"defensiveness", but that clearly got in the way of both brevity and
clarity.

Yeah, the name was supposed to reflect the context ("cherry-pick logic
which also covers revert, as opposed to rebase which also uses
sequencer but is a substantially separate flow"), rather than the
output value.

That sounds very plausible.
I will (very belatedly) have a go, and submit another version sometime soon.
Thanks so much for taking the time to review, and my apologies for the
months-later context revival!
