R Documentation

Navigate dolt history

Description

dolt_checkout() checks out a dolt branch, setting that branch as HEAD and bringing you to its tip. dolt_use() sets the database to use a specific commit as it's state and puts you in read-only mode.

Usage

dolt_checkout(
  branch,
  b = FALSE,
  start_point = NULL,
  conn = dolt(),
  collect = NULL,
  show_sql = NULL
)

dolt_use(hash = NULL, conn = dolt())

Arguments

`branch`	the branch to check out
`b`	whether to create a new branch
`start_point`	a commit hash from which the branch should start. If NULL, starts from current HEAD.
`conn`	the database connection
`collect`	whether to collect the result into R or return a `dbplyr::tbl_lazy()` to be further processed before collecting. Defaults to `TRUE`, can be set with the environment variable `DOLT_COLLECT`.
`show_sql`	Whether to print the SQL statements used internally to fetch the data. Useful for learning how Dolt works internally. Defaults to `FALSE`, can be set with the environment variable `DOLT_VERBOSE`.
`hash`	the commit hash you want to set the database to. If NULL, checks out the head of the main branch and brings you out of read-only mode.
