2019-12-13built-in add -p: implement hunk editingLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+3
Just like `git add --edit` allows the user to edit the diff before it is being applied to the index, this feature allows the user to edit the diff *hunk*. Naturally, it gets a bit more complicated here because the result has to play well with the remaining hunks of the overall diff. Therefore, we have to do a loop in which we let the user edit the hunk, then test whether the result would work, and if not, drop the edits and let the user decide whether to try editing the hunk again. Note: in contrast to the Perl version, we use the same diff "coalescing" (i.e. merging overlapping hunks into a single one) also for the check after editing, and we introduce a new flag for that purpose that asks the `reassemble_patch()` function to pretend that all hunks were selected for use. This allows us to continue to run `git apply` *without* the `--allow-overlap` option (unlike the Perl version), and it also fixes two known breakages in `t3701-add-interactive.sh` (which we cannot mark as resolved so far because the Perl script version is still the default and continues to have those breakages).

2019-12-13built-in add -p: adjust hunk headers as neededLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+15
When skipping a hunk that adds a different number of lines than it removes, we need to adjust the subsequent hunk headers of non-skipped hunks: in pathological cases, the context is not enough to determine precisely where the patch should be applied. This problem was identified in 23fea4c240 (t3701: add failing test for pathological context lines, 2018-03-01) and fixed in the Perl version in fecc6f3a68 (add -p: adjust offsets of subsequent hunks when one is skipped, 2018-03-01). And this patch fixes it in the C version of `git add -p`. In contrast to the Perl version, we try to keep the extra text on the hunk header (which typically contains the signature of the function whose code is changed in the hunk) intact. Note: while the C version does not support staging mode changes at this stage, we already prepare for this by simply skipping the hunk header if both old and new offset is 0 (this cannot happen for regular hunks, and we will use this as an indicator that we are looking at a special hunk). Likewise, we already prepare for hunk splitting by handling the absence of extra text in the hunk header gracefully: only the first split hunk will have that text, the others will not (indicated by an empty extra text start/end range). Preparing for hunk splitting already at this stage avoids an indentation change of the entire hunk header-printing block later, and is almost as easy to review as without that handling.

2019-12-13built-in add -i: start implementing the `patch` functionality in CLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+1
In the previous steps, we re-implemented the main loop of `git add -i` in C, and most of the commands. Notably, we left out the actual functionality of `patch`, as the relevant code makes up more than half of `git-add--interactive.perl`, and is actually pretty independent of the rest of the commands. With this commit, we start to tackle that `patch` part. For better separation of concerns, we keep the code in a separate file, `add-patch.c`. The new code is still guarded behind the `add.interactive.useBuiltin` config setting, and for the moment, it can only be called via `git add -p`. The actual functionality follows the original implementation of 5cde71d64aff (git-add --interactive, 2006-12-10), but not too closely (for example, we use string offsets rather than copying strings around, and after seeing whether the `k` and `j` commands are applicable, in the C version we remember which previous/next hunk was undecided, and use it rather than looking again when the user asked to jump). As a further deviation from that commit, We also use a comma instead of a slash to separate the available commands in the prompt, as the current version of the Perl script does this, and we also add a line about the question mark ("print help") to the help text. While it is tempting to use this conversion of `git add -p` as an excuse to work on `apply_all_patches()` so that it does _not_ want to read a file from `stdin` or from a file, but accepts, say, an `strbuf` instead, we will refrain from this particular rabbit hole at this stage.

2019-11-14Start to implement a built-in version of `git add --interactive`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+8
Unlike previous conversions to C, where we started with a built-in helper, we start this conversion by adding an interception in the `run_add_interactive()` function when the new opt-in `add.interactive.useBuiltin` config knob is turned on (or the corresponding environment variable `GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN`), and calling the new internal API function `run_add_i()` that is implemented directly in libgit.a. At this point, the built-in version of `git add -i` only states that it cannot do anything yet. In subsequent patches/patch series, the `run_add_i()` function will gain more and more functionality, until it is feature complete. The whole arc of the conversion can be found in the PRs #170-175 at https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git. The "--helper approach" can unfortunately not be used here: on Windows we face the very specific problem that a `system()` call in Perl seems to close `stdin` in the parent process when the spawned process consumes even one character from `stdin`. Which prevents us from implementing the main loop in C and still trying to hand off to the Perl script. The very real downside of the approach we have to take here is that the test suite won't pass with `GIT_TEST_ADD_I_USE_BUILTIN=true` until the conversion is complete (the `--helper` approach would have let it pass, even at each of the incremental conversion steps).
