Junio C Hamano	153920da5b	Custom low-level merge driver: change the configuration scheme. This changes the configuration syntax for defining a low-level merge driver to be: [merge "<<drivername>>"] driver = "<<command line>>" name = "<<driver description>>" which is much nicer to read and is extensible. Credit goes to Martin Waitz and Linus. In addition, when we use an external low-level merge driver, it is reported as an extra output from merge-recursive, using the value of merge.<<drivername>.name variable. The demonstration in t6026 has also been updated. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	18 years ago
Junio C Hamano	f3ef6b6bbe	Custom low-level merge driver support. This allows users to specify custom low-level merge driver per path, using the attributes mechanism. Just like you can specify one of built-in "text", "binary", "union" low-level merge drivers by saying: * merge=text .gitignore merge=union *.jpg merge=binary pick a name of your favorite merge driver, and assign it as the value of the 'merge' attribute. A custom low-level merge driver is defined via the config mechanism. This patch introduces 'merge.driver', a multi-valued configuration. Its value is the name (i.e. the one you use as the value of 'merge' attribute) followed by a command line specification. The command line can contain %O, %A, and %B to be interpolated with the names of temporary files that hold the common ancestor version, the version from your branch, and the version from the other branch, and the resulting command is spawned. The low-level merge driver is expected to update the temporary file for your branch (i.e. %A) with the result and exit with status 0 for a clean merge, and non-zero status for a conflicted merge. A new test in t6026 demonstrates a sample usage. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	18 years ago

Custom low-level merge driver: change the configuration scheme.

This changes the configuration syntax for defining a low-level
merge driver to be:

	[merge "<<drivername>>"]
		driver = "<<command line>>"
		name = "<<driver description>>"

which is much nicer to read and is extensible.  Credit goes to
Martin Waitz and Linus.

In addition, when we use an external low-level merge driver, it
is reported as an extra output from merge-recursive, using the
value of merge.<<drivername>.name variable.

The demonstration in t6026 has also been updated.

Custom low-level merge driver support.

This allows users to specify custom low-level merge driver per
path, using the attributes mechanism.  Just like you can specify
one of built-in "text", "binary", "union" low-level merge
drivers by saying:

	*		merge=text
	.gitignore	merge=union
	*.jpg		merge=binary

pick a name of your favorite merge driver, and assign it as the
value of the 'merge' attribute.

A custom low-level merge driver is defined via the config
mechanism.  This patch introduces 'merge.driver', a multi-valued
configuration.  Its value is the name (i.e. the one you use as
the value of 'merge' attribute) followed by a command line
specification.  The command line can contain %O, %A, and %B to
be interpolated with the names of temporary files that hold the
common ancestor version, the version from your branch, and the
version from the other branch, and the resulting command is
spawned.

The low-level merge driver is expected to update the temporary
file for your branch (i.e. %A) with the result and exit with
status 0 for a clean merge, and non-zero status for a conflicted
merge.

A new test in t6026 demonstrates a sample usage.

Add a demonstration/test of customized merge.

This demonstrates how the new low-level per-path merge backends,
union and ours, work, and shows how they are controlled by the
gitattribute mechanism.
