[llvm-dev] arc patch with the new git workflow (original) (raw)

Personally I'd like a "git llvm fetch-diff D1234" subcommand, which outputs a patch in the format of "git format-patch", which, you could then pipe to "git am", say, providing whatever prefix options you like.

Hi,

Are you trying to apply a revision that was uploaded to Phabricator from one of the individual repository (or from SVN)? The issue if I remember correctly is that a patch uploaded from an SVN checkout would not start with llvm/ or clang/ and wouldn't be able to be applied in the monorepo. Conversely, a revision created from the monorepo can't be applied by arc patch in a single subproject checkout. I don't think there is a way around this, maybe --strip-prefix and --add-prefix options could be added to arc patch, but I'm not sure it would fit the expectation of arc upstream. -- Mehdi

The Phabricator docs seem to say that downloading a patch goes with arc_ _patch. However, I tried it on several revisions and they all fail with: Checking patch some/path/to/a/file/that/exists ... error: some/path/to/a/file/that/exists: does not exist in index With the svn repo I found that command to be really useful. But now it seems like I have to download the patch manually, create a new branch, apply it and create a commit for it. Having arc patch would be a really great improvement to that - since it also does arc specific stuff I believe that I can't do manually (like arc diff telling me which patch to commit). Is there a way I can make it work? Thanks P.S: I'm not on llvm-dev list, so any replies would have to mention my email I guess :) - Nicolas
