Managing the store's heads.
list t is the list of all the heads in local store. Similar to git rev-list --all.
find t is the current head of the store t. This works for both persistent and temporary branches. In the case of a persistent branch, this involves getting the the head associated with the branch, so this may block. In the case of a temporary store, it simply returns the current head. Returns None if the store has no contents. Similar to git rev-parse HEAD.
Same as find but raise Invalid_argument if the store does not have any contents.
set t h updates t's contents with the contents of the commit h. Can cause data loss as it discards the current contents. Similar to git reset --hard <hash>.
val fast_forward :
t ->
?max_depth:int ->
?n:int ->
commit ->
(unit, [ `No_change | `Rejected | lca_error ]) result Lwt.tfast_forward t h is similar to update but the t's head is updated to h only if h is stricly in the future of t's current head. max_depth or n are used to limit the search space of the lowest common ancestors (see lcas).
The result is:
Ok () if the operation is succesfull;Error `No_change if h is already t's head;Error `Rejected if h is not in the strict future of t's head.Error e if the history exploration has been cut before getting useful results. In that case. the operation can be retried using different parameters of n and max_depth to get better results.Same as update_head but check that the value is test before updating to set. Use update or merge instead if possible.
val merge :
into:t ->
info:Info.f ->
?max_depth:int ->
?n:int ->
commit ->
(unit, Merge.conflict) result Lwt.tmerge ~into:t ?max_head ?n commit merges the contents of the commit associated to commit into t. max_depth is the maximal depth used for getting the lowest common ancestor. n is the maximum number of lowest common ancestors. If present, max_depth or n are used to limit the search space of the lowest common ancestors (see lcas).
