> I'm going to be making a set of breaking changes to COBs in order to
stabilize the data formats. This is hopefully a one-time change that
bundles various breaking changes.
All COBs have been reworked: issue, patch, id.
The changes included are:
* Revise the assign and tag actions to take a single list of
assignees/tags to set, instead of an "add" and a "remove" list. This
makes API usage simpler when editing issues, and simplifies the apply
function
* Rename "tags" to "labels", and the tag action to label. This is
because tag is confusing in the context of git, as it could mean a git
tag. Using label removes that confusion.
* Use DIDs instead of PublicKeys for assignees -- this is more
future-proof
* Modify the manifest file format in the COB tree. Mainly, remove the
`history_type` key which is redundant, and use camelCase for keys
* Flatten the `Thread` actions into the parent action type
* Ensure that operations on redacted objects do not fail, since
redactions could have happened concurrently
* Use a consistent naming scheme for actions, using `.` as separator
* Consolidate comment types and remove `CodeComment`, by adding an
optional `location` field to `Comment`
* Add many placeholder actions that are not yet implemented
To preserve backwards compatibility, a `legacy` module is created with
the old `apply` function. When loading the manifest, we check whether it
is a legacy COB or a "stable" COB, and in the legacy case, use the
legacy code to materialize the state and then convert the object into
the stable type. Eventually, we'll delete the legacy code.
Remove this command in favor of the `git push` flow.
We also remove the `rad/patches` remote configuration which wasn't
working properly with `git fetch --all`.
Help the user when creating a patch by listing the messages of all
commits associated with the patch in almost the same format as git uses
for squashing.
Allows for setting a patch message during a push. Eg.:
$ git push -o patch.message="My Title" -o patch.message="My description" \
rad HEAD:refs/patches
Works the same way as the `-m` flag of `git commit`.
This adds the ability to the git-remote-helper to open and update
patches via a `git push` to the magic ref `refs/patches` and
`refs/heads/patches/<patch-id>`.
The main change is that we had to move away from offering the `connect`
capability in the remote helper, to offering `push` and `fetch`
individually.
To get a feel for how this works, see the `rad-patch-via-push.md`
example.
