WORKFLOW EXAMPLE

First, specify a personal remote repository where to push WIP branches:

$ git config phab.remote xclaesse

Make sure the fetch URL of the repository can be accessed by the reviewers. For example if your remote is called github:

$ git remote show github | grep URL
  Fetch URL: git@github.com:NICK/PROJECT.git
  Push  URL: git@github.com:NICK/PROJECT.git
$ git remote set-url github https://github.com/NICK/PROJECT.git
$ git remote set-url --push github git@github.com:NICK/PROJECT.git
$ git remote show github | grep URL
  Fetch URL: https://github.com/NICK/PROJECT.git
  Push  URL: git@github.com:NICK/PROJECT.git

Before starting your work, create a branch:

$ git checkout -b fix-bugs origin/master
Branch fix-bugs set up to track remote branch master from origin.
Switched to a new branch 'fix-bugs'

Note that is it important to set the tracking remote branch, git-phab will use it to set the default commit range to attach.

Now fix your bugs…

When the branch is ready for review, attach it (requesting the creation of a new task):

$ git phab attach --task
Using revision range 'origin/master..'
a3beba9 — Not attached — Truncate all_commits when filtering already proposed commits
Attach above commits and create a new task? [yn] y
(...)
Push HEAD to xclaesse/wip/phab/T3436-fix-bugs? [yn] y
Create and checkout a new branch called: T3436-fix-bugs? [yn] y

Summary:
New: task T3436
New: 66b48b9 — D483 — Truncate all_commits when filtering already proposed commits
Branch pushed to xclaesse/wip/phab/T3436-fix-bugs
Branch T3436-fix-bugs created and checked out

Note that the current branch name wasn’t starting with a task ID, so it proposed to create a new one. If you already had a task for it, just pass --task option. But it created a new branch prefixed with the task ID so future git-phab commands will know which task this branch refers to:

$ git branch
* T3436-fix-bugs
  fix-bugs
  master

When your commits have been accepted, merge them:

$ git checkout master
$ git merge T3436-fix-bugs
$ git phab land
66b48b9 — D483 Accepted — Truncate all_commits when filtering already proposed commits
Do you want to push above commits? [yn] y
Do you want to close 'T3436'? [yn] y

You can now cleanup your branches:

$ git phab clean
Task 'T3436' has been closed, do you want to delete branch 'T3436-fix-bugs'? [yn] y
  -> Branch T3436-fix-bugs was deleted
Task 'T3436' has been closed, do you want to delete branch 'xclaesse/wip/phab/T3436-fix-a-bug'? [yn] y
  -> Branch xclaesse/wip/phab/T3436-fix-a-bug was deleted
