     5 # The "pre-rebase" hook is run just before "git rebase" starts doing
       
     6 # its job, and can prevent the command from running by exiting with
       
     7 # non-zero status.
       
     8 #
       
     9 # The hook is called with the following parameters:
       
    10 #
       
    11 # $1 -- the upstream the series was forked from.
       
    12 # $2 -- the branch being rebased (or empty when rebasing the current branch).
       
    13 #
       
    14 # This sample shows how to prevent topic branches that are already
       
    15 # merged to 'next' branch from getting rebased, because allowing it
       
    16 # would result in rebasing already published history.

    93 This sample hook safeguards topic branches that have been
       
    94 published from being rewound.
       
    95 
       
    96 The workflow assumed here is:
       
    97 
       
    98  * Once a topic branch forks from "master", "master" is never
       
    99    merged into it again (either directly or indirectly).
       
   100 
       
   101  * Once a topic branch is fully cooked and merged into "master",
       
   102    it is deleted.  If you need to build on top of it to correct
       
   103    earlier mistakes, a new topic branch is created by forking at
       
   104    the tip of the "master".  This is not strictly necessary, but
       
   105    it makes it easier to keep your history simple.
       
   106 
       
   107  * Whenever you need to test or publish your changes to topic
       
   108    branches, merge them into "next" branch.
       
   109 
       
   110 The script, being an example, hardcodes the publish branch name
       
   111 to be "next", but it is trivial to make it configurable via
       
   112 $GIT_DIR/config mechanism.
       
   113 
       
   114 With this workflow, you would want to know:
       
   115 
       
   116 (1) ... if a topic branch has ever been merged to "next".  Young
       
   117     topic branches can have stupid mistakes you would rather
       
   118     clean up before publishing, and things that have not been
       
   119     merged into other branches can be easily rebased without
       
   120     affecting other people.  But once it is published, you would
       
   121     not want to rewind it.
       
   122 
       
   123 (2) ... if a topic branch has been fully merged to "master".
       
   124     Then you can delete it.  More importantly, you should not
       
   125     build on top of it -- other people may already want to
       
   126     change things related to the topic as patches against your
       
   127     "master", so if you need further changes, it is better to
       
   128     fork the topic (perhaps with the same name) afresh from the
       
   129     tip of "master".
       
   130 
       
   131 Let's look at this example:
       
   132 
       
   133 		   o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "next"
       
   134 		  /       /           /           /
       
   135 		 /   a---a---b A     /           /
       
   136 		/   /               /           /
       
   137 	       /   /   c---c---c---c B         /
       
   138 	      /   /   /             \         /
       
   139 	     /   /   /   b---b C     \       /
       
   140 	    /   /   /   /             \     /
       
   141     ---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o "master"
       
   142 
       
   143 
       
   144 A, B and C are topic branches.
       
   145 
       
   146  * A has one fix since it was merged up to "next".
       
   147 
       
   148  * B has finished.  It has been fully merged up to "master" and "next",
       
   149    and is ready to be deleted.
       
   150 
       
   151  * C has not merged to "next" at all.
       
   152 
       
   153 We would want to allow C to be rebased, refuse A, and encourage
       
   154 B to be deleted.
       
   155 
       
   156 To compute (1):
       
   157 
       
   158 	git rev-list ^master ^topic next
       
   159 	git rev-list ^master        next
       
   160 
       
   161 	if these match, topic has not merged in next at all.
       
   162 
       
   163 To compute (2):
       
   164 
       
   165 	git rev-list master..topic
       
   166 
       
   167 	if this is empty, it is fully merged to "master".
