Add a prefix argument on vc-delete-file to keep affected
file on disk and keep the current buffer intact. This option
relies on the backends to not delete files themselves.

* doc/emacs/vc1-xtra.texi: Document the change.
* lisp/vc/vc-git.el: Make git leave files on disk.
* lisp/vc/vc.el: Change vc-delete-file to accept optional prefix argument.

I wonder why no prompt?  You can add `current-prefix-arg' to the
interactive list to keep the existing prompt.

I remember having the same problem while improving `vc-rename-file'.
To solve the problem, it required adding `vc-file-clearprops'.
Maybe it could here as well?

It seems vc-resynch-window already uses `vc-file-clearprops'
when `keep-file' is specified, but also on some more conditions.

There was a call to vc-file-clearprops later. I moved that earlier
before backup and that didn't seem to work.

I'm sorry, but I didn't really understand the above. I don't really know
elisp to be honest.

Then another question: why backup is needed at all?
When the file is not going to be deleted, then
there is no need to make a backup copy?

>>> -    (vc-resynch-buffer file nil t)))
>>> +    (vc-resynch-buffer file keep-file t)))
>>

The comment before calling `vc-resynch-buffer' says it's to
make sure the buffer is deleted.  But it seems the buffer
is already deleted at that point?

Also it looks that your another change is dangerous:

 (defun vc-git-delete-file (file)
-  (vc-git-command nil 0 (vc-git--literal-pathspec file) "rm" "-f" "--"))
+  (vc-git-command nil 0 (vc-git--literal-pathspec file) "rm" "-f" "--cached" "--")))

because it deletes the file in the staging area
that is not used by vc-git, so there is no way
to commit the deletion using vc commands.

Generally, you have a good idea, but it needs more careful handling
with the existing vc commands.

There could be deletion or not depending on the value of keep-file.
Maybe the check for that can be made earlier and backup can be skipped
conditionally.=20=20

No, the buffer is not deleted at that point. I should've changed that
comment too.  vc-resynch-buffer would've deleted that buffer if the
second arg was nil.

I think this check in vc-delete-file takes care of that

Oh, you mean just that single commit can't be done by vc now.  Yeah,
that seems true. Can you think of any solution for that here?=20

This changes the semantics of the 'delete-file' backend action. Kind of 
breaking strict compatibility with third-party backends.

I think it would be better to add an optional argument to it instead 
(e.g. call it KEEP-FILE, just like the new arg to vc-delete-file; or 
KEEP-ON-DISK).

Then git's implementation's signature will look like

   (defun vc-git-delete-file (file &optional keep-on-disk)

and it will decide whether to add '--cached' based on that argument.

No 'delete-file' investigation will be needed as a result.

But this would mean that every vc-backend will have to be changed,
immediately.  If we keep things as-is, Existing code either both emacs and
third-party packages will continue to work with no changes.
We can then say in NEWS that all vc backends should always leave files
in disk and let vc-delete-file handle deletion from the disk.

Also, having every vc-backend accept and check keep-on-disk will result
on a lot of duplicate code that can simply be avoided.

Not really: since the arg is optional, we can make sure to only add it 
when it's non-nil, and otherwise call the backends with 1 argument.

That's a valid argument, I suppose. Depends on whether many other 
backends (VCSes) know how to delete files without deleting them on disk.

OTOH, it would be handy to let those that don't declare explicitly their 
inability to do that (by not supporting the second argument).

But then the user will get error about wrong number of arguments if the
backend doesn't support it.

I think it would be better to check if the file exists after calling vc
backends.  If it doesn't and keep-files is non-nil, we can restore from the
backup(which is always happening).  That will make all vc backends
compatible without any change.

If other backends support deletion only from the index, then they should
do that as it preserves file-modes and such.

That's better than having the file deleted, I think.

And our implementation can catch this particular error and show a more 
humane message, too.

Subject: [PATCH] Option for vc-delete-file to keep file on disk

Add a prefix argument on vc-delete-file to keep affected
file on disk and keep the current buffer intact.  This option
relies on the backends to not delete files themselves.

* doc/emacs/vc1-xtra.texi: Document the change.
* lisp/vc/vc-git.el (vc-git-delete-file): Make git leave files on disk.
* lisp/vc/vc.el (vc-delete-file): Change vc-delete-file to accept
optional prefix argument. Also have it manage backup files in
case the backend delets files when we don't want to.

--cached can't be used anyway, because vc commands doesn't use the git index.
Currently, after vc-delete-file, we have the following status in vc-dir:

                         ./
     removed             file1
     unregistered        file1~

So the user can commit the removed file with vc-next-action.
Then after this, the user can manually rename the unregistered backup
by removing ~ from the file name.

So it seems that you want to automate the last part, i.e.
to try automatically rename the file from its backup copy
after all changes were committed?

That's a very good point, I didn't even consider this problem (VC not 
caring about the staging area). Perhaps assuming that the full scenario 
with the original patch is functional.

So a "restore from backup" step indeed could be a solution for this problem.

Or alternatively, if we consider the potential feature which we've been 
talking about (committing a subset of hunks from a file selectively), 
its implementation should have a step which either uses a staging area, 
or adds stuff to it first.

And that step could be the place to enact a change like presently 
discussed (add a deletion to the staging area, and then commit it). That 
deletion would either already be in the staging area (meaning we pick up 
any staged changes for commit, which might be weird), or we would store 
the "intent to remove with --cached" in some buffer-local variable, 
which would be picked up by the new code.

The latter solution would be the "cleaner" one, but the former is one 
that we could have _right now_.

On the plus side, the former also doesn't seem like it's going to 
require changes in the VC API after all.

The feature of committing a subset of hunks will be performed by one command
'log-edit-done' ('C-c C-c') from the *vc-log* buffer that will run git commands
`git apply --cached` followed by `git commit`.

Doing something similar could mean for example that 'C-u M-x vc-delete-file'
could immediately pop up the *vc-log* buffer waiting for a commit message,
and on 'C-c C-c' will commit only the deleted file.

I doubt that anyone might want to commit the file deletion immediately,
because file deletions usually are committed together with other changes.

But maybe git has a way to mark a file as deleted without actually deleting it?
So `git status --porcelain -z --untracked-files` could return "D" for such file
that still exists, this would be the simplest solution.

Right. That's why I suggested either to have a buffer-local var to store 
the "to be deleted" status, or do that in the staging area first.

'git rm --cached', used in the patch for this issue originally, is 
indeed such command. Unless I misunderstood the question.

$ git rm --cached CONTRIBUTE
rm 'CONTRIBUTE' 
                                  $ git status --porcelain --untracked-files
D  CONTRIBUTE
?? CONTRIBUTE

It's not --cached that is the problem.  Even the unpatched
vc-delete-file effectively uses --cached because the file is removed
while backuping and never brought back for git to delete it.

Say you use the current vc-delete-file and then immediately restore it
from backup (before commiting).  VC will show the file as unregistered.
I think this behavior of vc should be fixed instead.

For current vc, restore from backup would only work after a commit which
i don't think is desirable much as you could go days without a commit
and 'C-u C-x v x' saying it will not delete the file would be wrong.

I don't know vc-internals but vc-git using git's --porcelain as juri
said is probably a much better idea.

I think a better way would be to show two files in vc-dir one saying
unregistered and one saying deleted.  You mark the one saying deleted
then commit that fileset which will not be present after being commited.

That mechanism can also be used for git add -p as you can show staged
file and unsatged file separately.

All right.

Well, it seems like it will add more cognitive load in the "common" 
scenario -- where you end up deleting the file you said you want to delete.

And it will be a breaking change in the existing behavior/UI.

Perhaps it we added a different UI for staging and committing from 
staging area (like in Magit), it could both be presented better and 
avoid bothering the existing users who like the simpler workflow.

If you delete from disk it behaves exactly like how it's doing right
now.  The only difference should be when you delete and immediately
restore from backup and in that case, only vc-dir shows one extra file.
I don't think it brakes any existing behavior.

Yeah, it's probably a bit tricky for partial adds but for complete file
deletions it should be no different at all.

But the file would stay around, right? That would be different.

And I was referring to the VC-Dir interface which would show new 
elements (additional entries for some files).

Only if you give vc-delete-file a prefix argument, otherwise it'll be
exactly the same.  It will delete even if we use git rm --cached (because
it is checked later if the file exists anymore or not)

Only if the file is deleted in the index and has not been commited yet.

Both "D " and "??" correspond to the 'unregistered' status in vc-dir
according to 'vc-git--git-status-to-vc-state':

  (defun vc-git--git-status-to-vc-state (code-list)
      ...
      ('("D " "??") 'unregistered)

"D " corresponds to 'removed', see the third branch of (pcase code-list 
...) inside vc-git--git-status-to-vc-state.

But indeed, when you pass a two-element list to 
vc-git--git-status-to-vc-state, that branch is not taken, and the next 
one (which you quoted) returns 'unregistered'.

That's entirely up to vc-git-state. Your new code can make a different 
decision: the information is all there.

OK, that seems to make sense. But how would we convey to the user that 
that "removed" (followed by "unregistered") refers to the staging area?

Patch which would implement this in VC-Dir/Git is welcome.

And the next step would be to ensure that such deletions (which keep the 
file on disk) can be committed by vc-next-action.

By mentioning it in the manual or perhaps in the docstring of
vc-delete-file?  It should be intuitive enough once you do it.

Can you please explain to me briefly how vc-dir gets this info?  I will
try at it but if you don't hear from me in a week then you know what
happened ;-)

On a related note, how do you test patches?  Last time i had to manually
C-M-x each and every function that was changed.  Is there a way to tell
emacs to ignore byte compiled files so as a simple restart will apply
new changes?  Any other way is okay with me too.

If it shows the two files, then you can mark the one saying removed and
vc-next-action can commit it.

Actually, to restore a deleted file there is a command 'vc-revert'.
Obviously it can't be called on a deleted file or its buffer
because it's already gone.  But it can be used on a line
with the tag "removed" in the vc-dir buffer.  There is
no shorter vc-dir binding to this command, so the global keybinding
'C-x v u' could be used on the vc-dir line with the removed file.
This completely reverses the deletion.

Ideally the user interface would convey that information without 
requiring the user to read the manual.

It's fairly involved. There is the vc-git-dir-status-files which fetches 
the status information asynchronously. But it is also updates for the 
individual files when a buffer is saved, if a VC-Dir buffer is already 
open (then the status comes from vc-git-state).

There is also vc-git-dir-printer which renders individual entries.

And finally, there is the ewoc.el package which stores the information 
about the statuses of files which are displayed inside the VC-Dir 
buffer. One should probably verify that it can show different statuses 
for one file name (might be non-trivial to change, or not).

I either use 'M-x eval-buffer' (bound to a key, 'C-c v' in my config) to 
re-evaluate the whole buffer which contains the changed code, or in some 
other cases I run 'make' in the checkout which updates the .elc files, 
and then restart Emacs (or rather launch a second instance for testing, 
while keeping the first one running for editing).

   (setq load-prefer-newer t)

should tell Emacs to do exactly that. Though I suppose this will depend 
on the order the packages are loaded -- if the edited file is loaded 
before the part of your init script where this line resides, or -- even 
worse -- is preloaded, this won't have the desired effect.

But otherwise this setting is very handy, and I recommend people turn it 
on. Especially when developing their own packages.

I mean verify that this actually works. As a UI, it sounds workable.

Reading this bug report, it's unclear what the conclusion is.  I agree
that it would be useful to have a command to remove a file from the VC
without deleting it.  But I don't think the proposed implementation is
safe, because it only works with git -- and in other VCs, doing `C-u M-x
vc-delete-file' would continue to delete the file, contrary to what the
doc string says.

Dmitry suggested to alter the interface, but that makes for awkward
compatibility.

Perhaps this should be a new command instead?  That'd be less confusing,
I think.  `M-x vc-remove-file', for instance.
