The `Repo` doesn't do anything with the `WorkingCopy` except keeping a
reference to it for its users to use. In fact, the entire lib crate
doesn't do antyhing with the `WorkingCopy`. It therefore seems simpler
to have the users of the crate manage the `WorkingCopy` instance. This
patch does that by letting `Workspace` own it. By not keeping an
instance in `Repo`, which is `Sync`, we can also drop the
`Arc<Mutex<>>` wrapping.
I left `Repo::working_copy()` for convenience for now, but now it
creates a new instance every time. It's only used in tests.
This further decoupling should help us add support for multiple
working copies (#13).
The auto-rebasing of descendants doesn't work if you have an open
commit checked out, which means that you may still end up with orphans
in that case (though that's usually a short-lived problem since they
get rebased when you close the commit). I'm also about to make
branches update to successors, but that also doesn't work when the
branch is on a working copy commit that gets rewritten. To fix this
problem, I've decided to let the caller of `WorkingCopy::commit()`
responsible for the transaction.
I expect that some of the code that this change moves from the lib
crate to the cli crate will later move back into the lib crate in some
form.
I had initially hoped that the type-safety provided by the separate
`FileRepoPath` and `DirRepoPath` types would help prevent bugs. I'm
not sure if it has prevented any bugs so far. It has turned out that
there are more cases than I had hoped where it's unknown whether a
path is for a directory or a file. One such example is for the path of
a conflict. Since it can be conflict between a directory and a file,
it doesn't make sense to use either. Instead we end up with quite a
bit of conversion between the types. I feel like they are not worth
the extra complexity. This patch therefore starts simplifying it by
replacing uses of `FileRepoPath` by `RepoPath`. `DirRepoPath` is a
little more complicated because its string form ends with a '/'. I'll
address that in separate patches.
I just changed my `~/.gitignore` and some tests started failing
because the working copy respects the user's `~/.gitignore`. We should
probably not depend on `$HOME` in the library crate. For now, this
patch just makes sure we set it to an arbitrary directory in the tests
where it matters.
This commits makes it so that running commands outside a repo results
in an error message instead of a panic.
We still don't look for a `.jj/` directory in ancestors of the current
directory.
I'm preparing to publish an early version before someone takes the
name(s) on crates.io. "jj" has been taken by a seemingly useless
project, but "jujube" and "jujube-lib" are still available, so let's
use those.
