The Utilities/cmjsoncpp directory contains a reduced distribution
|
||
|
of the jsoncpp source tree with only the library source code and
|
||
|
CMake build system. It is not a submodule; the actual content is part
|
||
|
of our source tree and changes can be made and committed directly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
We update from upstream using Git's "subtree" merge strategy. A
|
||
|
special branch contains commits of upstream jsoncpp snapshots and
|
||
|
nothing else. No Git ref points explicitly to the head of this
|
||
|
branch, but it is merged into our history.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Update jsoncpp from upstream as follows. Create a local branch to
|
||
|
explicitly reference the upstream snapshot branch head:
|
||
|
|
||
|
git branch jsoncpp-upstream 53f6ccb0
|
||
|
|
||
|
Use a temporary directory to checkout the branch:
|
||
|
|
||
|
mkdir jsoncpp-tmp
|
||
|
cd jsoncpp-tmp
|
||
|
git init
|
||
|
git pull .. jsoncpp-upstream
|
||
|
rm -rf *
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now place the (reduced) jsoncpp content in this directory. See
|
||
|
instructions shown by
|
||
|
|
||
|
git log 53f6ccb0
|
||
|
|
||
|
for help extracting the content from the upstream svn repo. Then run
|
||
|
the following commands to commit the new version. Substitute the
|
||
|
appropriate date and version number:
|
||
|
|
||
|
git add --all
|
||
|
|
||
|
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME='JsonCpp Upstream' \
|
||
|
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL='kwrobot@kitware.com' \
|
||
|
GIT_AUTHOR_DATE='Thu Nov 20 08:45:58 2014 -0600' \
|
||
|
git commit -m 'JsonCpp 1.0.0 (reduced)' &&
|
||
|
git commit --amend
|
||
|
|
||
|
Edit the commit message to describe the procedure used to obtain the
|
||
|
content. Then push the changes back up to the main local repository:
|
||
|
|
||
|
git push .. HEAD:jsoncpp-upstream
|
||
|
cd ..
|
||
|
rm -rf jsoncpp-tmp
|
||
|
|
||
|
Create a topic in the main repository on which to perform the update:
|
||
|
|
||
|
git checkout -b update-jsoncpp master
|
||
|
|
||
|
Merge the jsoncpp-upstream branch as a subtree:
|
||
|
|
||
|
git merge -s recursive -X subtree=Utilities/cmjsoncpp \
|
||
|
jsoncpp-upstream
|
||
|
|
||
|
If there are conflicts, resolve them and commit. Build and test the
|
||
|
tree. Commit any additional changes needed to succeed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Finally, run
|
||
|
|
||
|
git rev-parse --short=8 jsoncpp-upstream
|
||
|
|
||
|
to get the commit from which the jsoncpp-upstream branch must be started
|
||
|
on the next update. Edit the "git branch jsoncpp-upstream" line above to
|
||
|
record it, and commit this file.
