Reformat a Topic
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
The "Kitware Robot" automatically performs basic code formatting on the commits
|
||||
and adds a comment acknowledging or rejecting a merge request based on the
|
||||
format. You may request "Kitware Robot" to automatically reformat the
|
||||
remote copy of your branch by issuing the command:
|
||||
|
||||
Do: reformat
|
||||
|
||||
This reformatting of the topic rewrites the commits to fix the formatting
|
||||
errors, and causes the version on the developers machine to differ from
|
||||
version on the gitlab server. To resolve this issue you must update
|
||||
the local version to match the reformatted one on the server if you wish
|
||||
to extend or revise the topic.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Checkout the topic if it is not your current branch:
|
||||
$ git checkout my-topic
|
||||
|
||||
2. Get the new version from gitlab
|
||||
|
||||
$ git gitlab-sync -f
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not wish to have the "Kitware Robot" automatically reformat your
|
||||
branch you can do so manually by running [clang-format][https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html]
|
||||
manually on each commit of your branch. This must be done by [revising each commit](#revise-a-topic)
|
||||
not as new commits onto the end of the branch.
|
||||
|
||||
Revise a Topic
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
If a topic is approved during GitLab review, skip to the
|
||||
[next step](#merge-a-topic). Otherwise, revise the topic
|
||||
and push it back to GitLab for another review as follows:
|
||||
Revising a topic is a special way to modify the commits within a topic. Normally
|
||||
during a review of a merge request a developer will resolve issues brought
|
||||
up during review by adding more commits to the topic. While this is sufficient
|
||||
for most issues, some issues can only be resolved by rewriting the history
|
||||
of the topic.
|
||||
|
||||
If a reviewer has asked explicitly for certain commits to be rewritten, you will
|
||||
need to revise the commits and force push it back to GitLab for another review.

||||
