public class RecursiveMerger
extends ResolveMerger

A three-way merger performing a content-merge if necessary across multiple bases using recursion This merger extends the resolve merger and does several things differently: - allow more than one merge base, up to a maximum - uses "Lists" instead of Arrays for chained types - recursively merges the merge bases together to compute a usable base

Method Detail

getBaseCommit

protected RevCommit getBaseCommit(RevCommit a,
                      RevCommit b)
                           throws IncorrectObjectTypeException,
                                  IOException

Get a single base commit for two given commits. If the two source commits have more than one base commit recursively merge the base commits together until you end up with a single base commit.

Overrides:

getBaseCommit in class Merger

Parameters:

a - the first commit in Merger.sourceObjects.

b - the second commit in Merger.sourceObjects.

Returns:

the merge base of two commits

Throws:

IOException

IncorrectObjectTypeException

getBaseCommit

protected RevCommit getBaseCommit(RevCommit a,
                      RevCommit b,
                      int callDepth)
                           throws IOException

Get a single base commit for two given commits. If the two source commits have more than one base commit recursively merge the base commits together until a virtual common base commit has been found.

Parameters:

a - the first commit to be merged

b - the second commit to be merged

callDepth - the callDepth when this method is called recursively

Returns:

the merge base of two commits

Throws:

IOException

IncorrectObjectTypeException - one of the input objects is not a commit.

NoMergeBaseException - too many merge bases are found or the computation of a common merge base failed (e.g. because of a conflict).
