The output from the "diff" family of the commands had abbreviated
object names of blobs involved in the patch, but its length was not
affected by the --abbrev option. Now it is.
* dd/diff-customize-index-line-abbrev:
diff: index-line: respect --abbrev in object's name
t4013: improve diff-post-processor logic
|

A handful of Git's commands respect `--abbrev' for customizing length
of abbreviation of object names.
For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different
purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full,
and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and
diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of
object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format,
we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length.
Although, that behaviour is documented, it doesn't stop users from
trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's
objects' name's abbreviation.
Let's allow the blob object names shown on the "index" line to be
abbreviated to arbitrary length given via the "--abbrev" option.
To preserve backward compatibility with old script that specify both
`--full-index' and `--abbrev', always show full object id
if `--full-index' is specified.

The "-t" option is infrequently used; it doesn't deserve a spot near the
top of the options list. Let's push it down into the diff-options
include, near the definition of --raw.
We'll protect it with a git-log ifdef, since it doesn't make any sense
for non-tree diff commands. Note that this means it also shows up in
git-show, but that's a good thing; it applies equally well there.

When we exemplify the difference between `-G` and `-S` (using
`--pickaxe-regex`), we do so using an example diff and git-diff
invocation involving "regexec", "regexp", "regmatch", ...
The example is correct, but we can make it easier to untangle by
avoiding writing "regex.*" unless it's really needed to make our point.
Use some made-up, non-regexy words instead.

The -G<regex> option of log looks for the differences whose patch text
contains added/removed lines that match regex.
Currently -G looks also into patches of binary files (which
according to [1]) is binary as well.
This has a couple of issues:
- It makes the pickaxe search slow. In a proprietary repository of the
author with only ~5500 commits and a total .git size of ~300MB
searching takes ~13 seconds
$time git log -Gwave > /dev/null
real 0m13,241s
user 0m12,596s
sys 0m0,644s
whereas when we ignore binary files with this patch it takes ~4s
$time ~/devel/git/git log -Gwave > /dev/null
real 0m3,713s
user 0m3,608s
sys 0m0,105s
which is a speedup of more than fourfold.
- The internally used algorithm for generating patch text is based on
xdiff and its states in [1]
> The output format of the binary patch file is proprietary
> (and binary) and it is basically a collection of copy and insert
> commands [..]
which means that the current format could change once the internal
algorithm is changed as the format is not standardized. In addition
the git binary patch format used for preparing patches for git apply
is *different* from the xdiff format as can be seen by comparing

add a test to ensure it stays that way.

The --color-moved "dimmed_zebra" mode (with an underscore) is an
anachronism. Most options and modes are hyphenated. It is more difficult
to type and somewhat more difficult to read than those which are
hyphenated. Therefore, rename it to "dimmed-zebra", and nominally
deprecate "dimmed_zebra".

The option of --color-moved has proven to be useful as observed on the
mailing list. However when refactoring sometimes the indentation changes,
for example when partitioning a functions into smaller helper functions
the code usually mostly moved around except for a decrease in indentation.
To just review the moved code ignoring the change in indentation, a mode
to ignore spaces in the move detection as implemented in a previous patch
would be enough. However the whole move coloring as motivated in commit
2e2d5ac (diff.c: color moved lines differently, 2017-06-30), brought
up the notion of the reviewer being able to trust the move of a "block".
As there are languages such as python, which depend on proper relative
indentation for the control flow of the program, ignoring any white space
change in a block would not uphold the promises of 2e2d5ac that allows
reviewers to pay less attention to the inside of a block, as inside
the reviewer wants to assume the same program flow.
This new mode of white space ignorance will take this into account and will
only allow the same white space changes per line in each block. This patch
even allows only for the same change at the beginning of the lines.
As this is a white space mode, it is made exclusive to other white space
modes in the move detection.
This patch brings some challenges, related to the detection of blocks.
We need a wide net to catch the possible moved lines, but then need to
narrow down to check if the blocks are still intact. Consider this
example (ignoring block sizes):
- A
- B
- C
+ A
+ B
+ C
At the beginning of a block when checking if there is a counterpart
for A, we have to ignore all space changes. However at the following
lines we have to check if the indent change stayed the same.
Checking if the indentation change did stay the same, is done by computing
the indentation change by the difference in line length, and then assume
the change is only in the beginning of the longer line, the common tail
is the same. That is why the test contains lines like:
- <TAB> A
...
+ A <TAB>
...
As the first line starting a block is caught using a compare function that
ignores white spaces unlike the rest of the block, where the white space
delta is taken into account for the comparison, we also have to think about
the following situation:
- A
- B
- A
- B
+ A
+ B
+ A
+ B
When checking if the first A (both in the + and - lines) is a start of
a block, we have to check all 'A' and record all the white space deltas
such that we can find the example above to be just one block that is
indented.

In the original implementation of the move detection logic the choice for
ignoring white space changes is the same for the move detection as it is
for the regular diff. Some cases came up where different treatment would
have been nice.
Allow the user to specify that white space should be ignored differently
during detection of moved lines than during generation of added and removed
lines. This is done by providing analogs to the --ignore-space-at-eol,
-b, and -w options by introducing the option --color-moved-ws=<modes>
with the modes named "ignore-space-at-eol", "ignore-space-change" and
"ignore-all-space", which is used only during the move detection phase.
As we change the default, we'll adjust the tests.
For now we do not infer any options to treat white spaces in the move
detection from the generic white space options given to diff.
This can be tuned later to reasonable default.
As we plan on adding more white space related options in a later patch,
that interferes with the current white space options, use a flag field
and clamp it down to XDF_WHITESPACE_FLAGS, as that (a) allows to easily
check at parse time if we give invalid combinations and (b) can reuse
parts of this patch.
By having the white space treatment in its own option, we'll also
make it easier for a later patch to have an config option for
spaces in the move detection.

The new "blocks" mode provides a middle ground between plain and zebra.
It is as intuitive (few colors) as plain, but still has the requirement

"git diff" and friends learned "--compact-summary" that shows the
information usually given with the "--summary" option on the same
line as the diffstat output of the "--stat" option (which saves
vertical space and keeps info on a single path at the same place).
* nd/diff-stat-with-summary:
diff: add --compact-summary
diff.c: refactor pprint_rename() to use strbuf
|
|
Certain information is currently shown with --summary, but when used
in combination with --stat it's a bit hard to read since info of the
same file is in two places (--stat and --summary).
On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of
display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of
files.
--compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the
little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with
commit 0433d533f1:
Documentation/merge-config.txt | 4 +
builtin/merge.c | 2 +
...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++
t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh | 45 ++++++++
4 files changed, 132 insertions(+)
It helps both condensing information and saving some text
space. What's new in diffstat is:
- A new 0644 file is shown as (new)
- A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x)
- A new symlink is shown as (new +l)
- A deleted file is shown as (gone)
- A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x)
- A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x)
Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information
--summary provides. Rewrite percentage is not shown but it could be
added later, like R50% or C20%.

Sometimes users are given a hash of an object and they want to
identify it further (ex.: Use verify-pack to find the largest blobs,
but what are these? or [1])
One might be tempted to extend git-describe to also work with blobs,
such that `git describe <blob-id>` gives a description as
'<commit-ish>:<path>'. This was implemented at [2]; as seen by the sheer
number of responses (>110), it turns out this is tricky to get right.
The hard part to get right is picking the correct 'commit-ish' as that
could be the commit that (re-)introduced the blob or the blob that
removed the blob; the blob could exist in different branches.
Junio hinted at a different approach of solving this problem, which this
patch implements. Teach the diff machinery another flag for restricting
the information to what is shown. For example:
$ ./git log --oneline --find-object=v2.0.0:Makefile
b2feb64309 Revert the whole "ask curl-config" topic for now
47fbfded53 i18n: only extract comments marked with "TRANSLATORS:"
we observe that the Makefile as shipped with 2.0 was appeared in
v1.9.2-471-g47fbfded53 and in v2.0.0-rc1-5-gb2feb6430b. The
reason why these commits both occur prior to v2.0.0 are evil
merges that are not found using this new mechanism.

The same document for "--diff-filter" is included by many
programs in the diff family. Because it mentions all
possible types (added, removed, etc), this may imply to the
reader that all types can be generated by a particular
command. But this isn't necessarily the case; "diff-files"
cannot generally produce an "Added" entry, since the diff is
limited to what is already in the index.
Let's make it clear that the list here is the full one, and
does not imply anything about what a particular invocation
may produce.
Note that conditionally including items (e.g., omitting
"Added" in the git-diff-files manpage) isn't the right
solution here for two reasons:
- The problem isn't diff-files, but doing an index to
working tree diff. "git diff" can do the same diff, but
also has other modes where "Added" does show up.
- The direction of the diff matters. Doing "diff-files -R"
can get you Added entries (but not Deleted ones).
So it's best just to explain that the set of available types
depends on the specific diff invocation.

The existing behavior of diff --color-moved=zebra does not define the
minimum size of a block at all, instead relying on a heuristic applied
later to filter out sets of adjacent moved lines that are shorter than 3
lines long. This can be confusing, because a block could thus be colored
as moved at the source but not at the destination (or vice versa),
depending on its neighbors.
Instead, teach diff that the minimum size of a block is 20 alphanumeric
characters, the same heuristic used by "git blame". This allows diff to
still exclude uninteresting lines appearing on their own (such as those
solely consisting of one or a few closing braces), as was the intention
of the adjacent-moved-line heuristic.
