Navigate dolt history — dolt

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.

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.
