|
|||
push integration in Mercurial because it can't force merges and thus can't
|
||||
guarantee it will be able to do anything useful.)
|
||||
|
||||
= Pushing and Closing Revisions =
|
||||
|
||||
After changes have been accepted, you generally push them and close the
|
||||
revision. `arc` has several workflows which help with this, by:
|
||||
|
||||
- squashing or merging changes from a feature branch into a master branch
|
||||
(if relevant);
|
||||
- formatting a good commit message with all the information from Differential;
|
||||
and
|
||||
- automatically closing the revision.
|
||||
|
||||
You don't need to use any of these workflows: you can just run `git push`,
|
||||
`hg push` or `svn commit` and then manually close the revision from the web.
|
||||
However, these workflows can make common development strategies more convenient,
|
||||
and give you better commit messages in the repository. The workflows `arc`
|
||||
supports are:
|
||||
|
||||
- `arc land`: Works in Git if you develop in feature branches. Does a merge
|
||||
or squash-merge from your feature branch into some master branch, provides
|
||||
a detailed commit message, pushes master, and then deletes your branch.
|
||||
- `arc amend`: Works in Git if you can't use `arc land`. Amends HEAD with
|
||||
a detailed commit message.
|
||||
- `arc commit`: Works in Subversion. Runs `svn commit` with a detailed commit
|
||||
message.
|
||||
- `arc close-revision`: Works anywhere, closes a revision from the CLI
|
||||
without going through the web UI.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use `arc help <command>` for detailed help with any of these.
|
||||
Differential will make a guess about a next step on accepted revisions, but it
|
||||
may not be the best next step for your workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
Phabricator will also automatically close revisions, if the changes are pushed
|
||||
to a repository that is tracked in Diffusion. Specifically, it will close
|
||||
revisions based on commit and tree hashes, and `Differential Revision`
|
||||
identifiers in commit messages. (You can disable this feature by disabling
|
||||
"Autoclose" in the Repository configuration.)
|
||||
|
||||
If you push to an untracked repository (or `arc` can't figure out that it's
|
||||
tracked), `arc land`, `arc amend` and `arc commit` will implicitly run `arc
|
||||
close-revision`.
