GIT-ARC(1) General Commands Manual GIT-ARC(1) NAME git arc -- a wrapper to improve integration between git and arcanist SYNOPSIS git create [-l] [-r reviewer1[,reviewer2 ...]] [-s subscriber1[,subscriber2 ...]] [-p parent] [commit ...|commit-range] git list commit ...|commit-range git patch [-c] diff1[,diff2] git stage [-b branch] [commit ...|commit-range] git update [-m message] [commit ...|commit-range] DESCRIPTION The git utility creates and manages FreeBSD Phabricator reviews based on git commits. Git assumes a one-to-one relationship between git commits and Differen- tial Revisions, and the Differential Revision title must match the sum- mary line of the corresponding commit. In particular, the commit sum- maries must be unique across all open Differential Revisions authored by the submitter. The first parameter must be a verb. The available verbs are: create Create new Differential Revisions from the specified commits. Accepts options: -l Before processing commit(s) display list of commits to be processed and wait for confirmation. -r reviewer Add one or more reviewers, separated by commas, to revision(s) being created. Argument(s) must be ex- isting Phabricator user or group. -s subscriber Add one or more subscribers, separated by commas, to revision(s) being created. Each argument must be an existing Phabricator user or group. -p parent Specify the parent of the first commit in the list. This is useful when adding more commits on top of the already existing stack in Phabricator. list Print the associated Differential Revisions for the specified commits. patch Try to apply a patch from a Differential Revision to the cur- rently checked out tree. stage Prepare a series of commits to be pushed to the upstream FreeBSD repository. The commits are cherry-picked to a branch (by default the "main" branch), review tags are added to the commit log message, and the log message is opened in an editor for any last-minute updates. The commits need not have associ- ated Differential Revisions. update Synchronize the Differential Revisions associated with the specified commits. Currently only the diff is updated; the re- view description and other metadata are not synchronized. If a message is specified with -m, that message is added as a note to the Differential Revision. If no message is supplied, the user's editor will be opened to provide an update message for each revision. If an empty message is supplied via -m, then no notes will be added when updating Differential Revisions. CONFIGURATION These are manipulated by git-config: arc.assume_yes Assume a "yes" answer to all prompts instead of prompt- ing the user. Equivalent to the -y flag. Defaults to false. arc.browse Try to open newly created reviews in a browser tab. Defaults to false. arc.list Always use "list mode" (-l) with create. In this mode, the list of git revisions to create reviews for is listed with a single prompt before creating reviews. The diffs for individual commits are not shown. De- faults to false. arc.verbose Always use verbose output. Equivalent to the -v flag. Defaults to false. EXAMPLES The typical end-to-end usage looks something like this. Commit changes with a message and create a Differential Review: $ git commit -m "kern: Rewrite in Rust" $ git arc create HEAD Make changes to the diff based on review feedback, then amend the changes to the existing commit and update the Differential Review: $ git commit --amend $ git arc update HEAD Now that all reviewers are happy, it is time to stage the commit and push it: $ git arc stage HEAD $ git push freebsd HEAD:main Create a Phabricator review using the contents of the most recent com- mit in your git checkout: $ git arc create -r markj HEAD The commit title is used as the review title, the commit log message is used as the review description, and <markj@FreeBSD.org> is added as a reviewer. Create a series of Phabricator reviews for each of HEAD~2, HEAD~ and HEAD: $ git arc create HEAD~3..HEAD Pairs of consecutive commits are linked into a patch stack. Note that the first commit in the specified range is excluded. Create a series of separate reviews for each of the following commits: $ git arc create b409afcfedcdda ca03ed1345aff0 Update the review corresponding to commit b409afcfedcdda: $ git arc update b409afcfedcdda The title of the commit must be the same as it was when the review was created. Note that the review description is not automatically up- dated. Apply the patch in review D12345 to the currently checked-out tree, and stage it: $ git arc patch D12345 Apply the patch in review D23456 to the currently checked-out tree, and commit it to the tree with the commit message in the review and make the best guess for what to use for author. If the guess is considered unreliable, the user is prompted to see if they wish to use it (or abort). $ git arc patch -c D23456 List the status of reviews for all the commits in the branch "feature": $ git arc list main..feature SEE ALSO build(7), development(7) HISTORY The git utility appeared in the src tools collection in FreeBSD 14.0.
