There are several reasons for this:
* We can more easily skip styling a trailing blank line, which other
internal code then can correctly detect as having a trailing
newline. This fixes the TODO in tests/test_commit_template.rs.
* Some tools (like `less -R`) add an extra newline if the final
character is not a newline (e.g. if there's a color reset after
it), which led to an annoying blank line after the diff summary in
e.g. `jj status`.
* Since each line is styled independently, you get all the necessary
escapes even when grepping through the output.
* Some terminals extend background color to the end of the terminal
(i.e. past the newline character), which is probably not what the
user wanted.
* Some tools (like `less -R`) get confused and lose coloring of lines
after a newline.
We often end up writing escape codes for one style and then
immediately after, we write escape codes for another style. That seems
harmless, but it's a little ugly. More importantly, it prepares for
not emitting any escapes for turning off attributes at the end of
formatted contents across multiple lines (see next commit).
Let's use `crossterm` to make `ColorFormatter` a little more readable,
and maybe also more portable.
This uses the `SetForegroundColor()` function, which uses the escapes
for 256-color support (code 38) instead of the 8-color escapes (codes
30-37) combined with bold/bright (code 1) we were using before. IIUC,
most terminals support the 16 base colors when using the 256-color
escape even if they don't support all the 256 colors. It seems like an
improvement to use actual color codes for the bright colors too,
instead of assuming that terminals render bold as bright (even though
most terminals do).
Before this commit, we relied on ANSI escape 1 - which is specified to
make the font bold - to make the color brighter. That's why we call
the colors "bright blue" etc. When we switch from using code 30-37 to
using 38 to let our color config just control the color (not using
escape1), we therefore lose the bold font on many terminals (at least
in iTerm2 and in the terminal application on my Debian work
computer). As a workaround, I made us still use escape 1 when the
bright colors are used. I'll make boldness a separately configurable
attribute soon. Then we'll be able to remove this hack.
With the switch to `crossterm`, we also reset just the foreground
color (code 39) instead of resetting all attributes (code 0). That
also seems like an improvement, probably making it easier for us to
later support different background colors, underlining, etc.
This can be disabled with the new `--quiet` option.
Printing every commit would give the user all the information of how to undo
this or where to `jj restore` from if they realize they need to after the
abandon.
If all file names are short enough, this will align the conflict
description at 4 spaces past the longest file name, as follows.
```
src/templater.rs 2-sided conflict
src/templater_parsers.rs 2-sided conflict
```
If there is a long file name, conflict descriptions will either start
or column 35 or one space from a file name, whichever is later.
Previously, a single tab was used to separate file name from conflict
description. This didn't look as nice as I hoped when multiple files
are involved. I also don't think `jj` generally uses tabs in output.
The tab uncovered a bug in a watcher program I was using.
If a workspace path is explicitly specified, it must point to the exact
workspace directory. This is the same behavior as 'hg -R'. OTOH, 'git -C'
is the option to chdir, so it makes sense to search .git from that directory.
This also fixes 'jj -R ../..' which would previously look up '../..', '..',
'.', ...
I don't think Workspace::load() should be permissive in that regard.
WorkspaceLoader could provide such function, but I feel it's more like
CLI business. CLI can also look for parent '.git' directory to suggest
'jj init --git-repo=..' if needed.
The divergent changes are marked with ?? (I found a single ? a bit easy to
overlook), and this should be consistent.
Ideally, the conflicted branches would also be red, but this takes a bit
larger changes to `templater.rs`: another `Property` as well as changes to
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/blob/7f9a0a28/src/template_parser.rs#L385-L395
An important part of the `jj log` output is the commit template. I
suspect we'll have many more tests for that, so let's move it to a
separate file. The main `test_log_command.rs` can focus on which
commits to display.
The `:` was a bit noisy. With upcoming color support, it seems unnecessary.
This should also be a little better for any tools that want to parse the
output.
Finally, `insta` also seems to want to rewrite test snapshots to be shorter.
They seem equivalent.
Since per-repo config may contain CLI settings, it must be visible to CLI.
Therefore, UserSettings::with_repo() -> RepoSettings isn't used, and its
implementation is nullified by this commit.
#616
This will be needed to test functionality for showing shortest
unique prefix for commit and change ids. As a bonus, this also
allows us to test log output with change ids.
As another bonus, this will prevent occasional CI failures like
https://github.com/martinvonz/jj/actions/runs/3817554687/jobs/6493881468.

Actually, it's easier to support these infix ops than erroring out, but I
don't want to make revset syntax more cryptic. "x- y" can't be handled by
this rule because "x-" is parsed as a parents expression.
Since CR+LF vs LF things shouldn't matter in commit description, it's probably
better to normalize newline characters.
In Mercurial, ui.edit() and changelog.stripdesc() handle line normalization,
and trailing newlines are stripped. In Git, cleanup_message() handles that,
and the last newline is added after stripping trailing newlines.
Otherwise the description set by -m would differ from the one set by editor.
This fixes test_describe() which says "make no changes", but previously "\n"
would be added by the second "jj describe".
As you can see, almost all hashes change in CLI tests. This means in-flight
PRs will need to be rebased to update insta snapshots.
Description text could be normalized by CommitBuilder, but the caller would
have to normalize it beforehand to compare with the current description, so
we would need an explicit function anyway. Another idea is to add a newtype
that represents a normalized description, and make CommitBuilder require it.
Commit::description() will return &Description in place of &str to ensure
that commit.description() == raw_str wouldn't compile.
Git CLI provides --cleanup=<mode> option to switch normalization rules, but
I don't think we'll need such feature.
