Summary: This should support conservative rewrite policies in git fairly well, under an assumed workflow of: - Develop in local branches, never rewrite history. - Commit with "-m" or by typing a brief, non-template commit message describing the checkpoint. - Provide rich information in the web console (reviewers, etc.) - Finalize with "git checkout master && arc merge branch && git push" or some flavor thereof. This supports Mercurial somewhat. The major problem is that "hg merge" fails if the local is a fastforward of the remote, at which point there's nowhere we can throw the commit message. Oh well. Just push it and we'll do our best to link them up based on local commit info. I am increasingly forming an opinion that Mercurial is "saftey-scissors git". But also maybe I have no clue what I'm doing. I just don't understand why anyone would think it's a good idea to have a trunk consisting of ~50% known-broken revisions, random checkpoint parts, whitespace changes, typo fixes, etc. If you use git with branching you can avoid this by making a trunk out of merges or with rebase/amend, but there seems to be no way to have "one commit = one idea" in any real sense in Mercurial. Test Plan: Execute "arc merge" in git and mercurial. Reviewers: fratrik, Makinde, aran, jungejason, tuomaspelkonen Reviewed By: Makinde CC: aran, epriestley, Makinde Differential Revision: 860 |

PROJECT STATUS: CAVEAT EMPTOR This is an unstable preview release. I'm open sourcing some of Facebook's internal tools, but they'll be unstable for at least a couple months. -epriestley WHAT IS ARCANIST? Arcanist is the CLI for Facebook's code review tool, Differential. Since Differential isn't released yet, it may not be terribly useful on its own.
