Git Fixup Push

Fixup Git Commits and Push to Gerrit

Use git-fixup-push when you have multiple commits for a change and want to combine them into a single commit before pushing to gerrit. Changes to Impala are managed in gerrit, and each change is represented as a single git commit. Use git-fixup-push to meld multiple commits into a single commit that can be pushed to gerrit.

Deterministic Execution Contract

• Run all commands from the repository root in a single shell session.
• Use non-interactive commands only.
• Treat any non-zero command exit code as a failure for the current step unless the step explicitly defines recovery behavior.
• Do not use force operations (--force, --force-with-lease, hard reset).
• Do not run git remote -v.
• Ignore untracked files for staged/unstaged detection and for stashing decisions.

Canonical Checks

• Staged changes exist: git diff --cached --quiet (exit code 1 means staged changes exist).
• Unstaged tracked changes exist: git diff --quiet (exit code 1 means unstaged tracked changes exist).
• Most recent commit message: git log -1 --pretty=%B.
• Valid gerrit username regex: ^[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$.
• Remote URL checks:
  • Fetch URL: git remote get-url asf-gerrit
  • Push URL: git remote get-url --push asf-gerrit

Available Scripts

• .agents/skills/git-fixup-push/scripts/fixup.sh - Script to combine multiple commits into a single commit. Run with the --help argument to see usage instructions. Run with the --dry-run argument to see the exact command that would be executed without actually running it. The script selects commits from the most recent IMPALA-<id> commit through HEAD. If that matching commit is already HEAD, the script exits without squashing.

Workflow

• Step 1: Validate asf-gerrit remote and URLs.
  • Success condition: both effective URLs exactly match ssh://<username>@gerrit.cloudera.org:29418/Impala-ASF.
  • Procedure:
    • Try git remote get-url asf-gerrit and git remote get-url --push asf-gerrit.
    • If remote does not exist, ask once for <username>.
    • Validate <username> against ^[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$.
    • If <username> is invalid, abort.
    • If remote does not exist and <username> is valid, run:
      • git remote add asf-gerrit ssh://<username>@gerrit.cloudera.org:29418/Impala-ASF
    • If remote exists but URL mismatch is detected, ask once for <username>.
    • Validate <username> against ^[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$.
    • If <username> is invalid, abort.
    • If remote exists with URL mismatch and <username> is valid, run:
      • git remote set-url asf-gerrit ssh://<username>@gerrit.cloudera.org:29418/Impala-ASF
      • git remote set-url --push asf-gerrit ssh://<username>@gerrit.cloudera.org:29418/Impala-ASF
    • Re-run both URL checks. If either still mismatches, abort.
• Step 2: Commit already-staged changes (pre-existing index state).
  • Run staged check.
  • If staged changes exist, run:
    • git commit -m "WIP: commit staged files"
  • If no staged changes, continue.
• Step 3: Resolve unstaged tracked changes.
  • Run unstaged tracked check.
  • If no unstaged tracked changes, continue.
  • If unstaged tracked changes exist, ask user to choose exactly one action:
    • stage: run exactly git add -u
    • stash: run git stash push --keep-index -m "stashed by git-fixup-push skill". Record that a stash was created; Step 9 will pop it after a successful push.
  • If input is not exactly stage or stash, abort.
• Step 4: Commit staged changes created by Step 3.
  • Run staged check again.
  • If staged changes exist, run:
    • git commit -m "WIP: commit staged files"
  • If no staged changes, continue.
• Step 5: Squash commits for the current change.
  • Run: .agents/skills/git-fixup-push/scripts/fixup.sh
  • If this command exits non-zero, abort.
• Step 6: Run critique with bounded retry policy.
  • Run from ${IMPALA_HOME} exactly:
    • ./bin/jenkins/critique-gerrit-review.py --dryrun
  • If critique passes, continue.
  • If critique fails on first attempt:
    • For each file and line number listed in the critique output, apply exactly the code-style fix described (for example: trim trailing whitespace, fix indentation, shorten lines to ≤90 characters). Do not make unrelated changes.
    • Commit fixes with:
      • git commit -m "fixed critique issues"
    • Restart workflow from Step 1 and allow exactly one additional critique attempt.
  • If critique fails on the second attempt, abort.
• Step 7: Ensure Assisted-by: trailer is present on HEAD.
  • Check trailers with:
    • git log -1 --pretty=%B | git interpret-trailers --only-trailers --unfold
  • If an Assisted-by: trailer is already present, do nothing and continue.
  • If missing, ask user whether to add it.
  • If user approves, amend commit message using git interpret-trailers and add exactly:
    • Assisted-by: <model> (<agent-name>) where <model> is the name of the language model and <agent-name> is the name of the agent executing this skill.
  • Deterministic amend sequence:
    • tmp_msg="$(mktemp)"
    • git log -1 --pretty=%B | git interpret-trailers --if-exists=doNothing --trailer "Assisted-by: <model> (<agent-name>)" > "$tmp_msg"
    • git commit --amend -F "$tmp_msg"
    • rm -f "$tmp_msg"
  • Preserve Gerrit footer requirements:
    • Keep Change-Id: in the final trailer paragraph.
    • Keep trailer lines contiguous (no blank lines between trailer entries).
  • If user declines, continue.
  • If user input is invalid, abort.
• Step 8: Push to Gerrit drafts.
  • Run exactly:
    • git push asf-gerrit HEAD:refs/drafts/master
  • If this command fails, abort and report the first actionable error.
• Step 9: Pop stash if one was created in Step 3.
  • If Step 3 recorded that a stash was created, run:
    • git stash pop
  • If git stash pop exits non-zero, report the error and stop; do not abort silently (the push already succeeded).
  • If no stash was created in Step 3, skip this step.
