Tracking rebase branches about abi-monitor HOT 5 OPEN

Great news!

As I understand the git fetch command doesn't update files in the source tree, so it cannot replace the git pull because the tracker will build and analyze old versions of files. May be for this reason the git log https://libwebsockets.org/abi/changelog/libwebsockets/current/log.html is not updated too since 2016-04-18. Am I right?

Thank you.

I guess you are right about something there, but I get a cronjob transcript like this

This one is from the 20th... it's not impossible something else is wrong with my cronjob arrangements but the git part seems to go well.

Hm no it seems to have been recooked well at the time of the cronjob and the report is generated and it's copied into place correctly, currently it's telling Last updated on Fri Apr 22 08:22:30 2016

Where does that date in the "Date" field actually come from? Although the last few days were spent getting one patch right by amending it over and over, actually for a few days the patch dates for the prior patches have been the 20th. It looks like that has never been updated since the first time I ran it by hand.

Yes the problem is it went into the local repo's "origin/master" and what's checked out was "master".

Another hack on your script like this

    if(-d $CurRepo)
    {
        chdir($CurRepo);

        if($Git)
        {
            printMsg("INFO", "Updating source code in repository");
            my $Log = qx/git fetch/;

            if($Log=~/Already up\-to\-date/i) {
                $UpToDate = 1;
            }

            my $Log = qx/git reset --hard origin\/master/;
        }

gets it working but that's probably not what a nice solution looks like...

Hi -

Thanks for your cool tool.

I have it set up on a cronjob to output daily updates for my project here

https://libwebsockets.org/abi/timeline/libwebsockets/index.html

However, on master there is no attempt to keep a history in git. If there are problems in patches from the last day or two, or sometimes further back, the patches are simply rewritten with the fix. The stable branches are treated as "patches on top" -only history branches.

This makes trouble for abi-monitor, because he wants to use git pull. git pull will reject the fast forward normally, if the update breaks history so you "lose" content in your current HEAD.

I can work around it by editing abi-monitor script to use "git fetch" instead. But it'd perhaps be better if there was some way to select this in the config.

Thanks.
