2015-11-20Remove get_object_hash.Libravatar brian m. carlson1-6/+6
Convert all instances of get_object_hash to use an appropriate reference to the hash member of the oid member of struct object. This provides no functional change, as it is essentially a macro substitution. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Convert most instances where the sha1 member of struct object is dereferenced to use get_object_hash. Most instances that are passed to functions that have versions taking struct object_id, such as get_sha1_hex/get_oid_hex, or instances that can be trivially converted to use struct object_id instead, are not converted.

2013-12-12diff: don't read index when --no-index is givenLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-2/+5
git diff --no-index ... currently reads the index, during setup, when calling gitmodules_config(). This results in worse performance when the index is not actually needed. This patch avoids calling gitmodules_config() when the --no-index option is given. The times for executing "git diff --no-index" in the WebKit repository are improved as follows: Test HEAD~3 HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------ 4001.1: diff --no-index 0.24(0.15+0.09) 0.01(0.00+0.00) -95.8% An additional improvement of this patch is that "git diff --no-index" no longer breaks when the index file is corrupt, which makes it possible to use it for investigating the broken repository. To improve the possible usage as investigation tool for broken repositories, setup_git_directory_gently() is also not called when the --no-index option is given. Also add a test to guard against future breakages, and a performance test to show the improvements.

2013-12-12diff: move no-index detection to builtin/diff.cLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-3/+49
Currently the --no-index option is parsed in diff_no_index(). Move the detection if a no-index diff should be executed to builtin/diff.c, where we can use it for executing diff_no_index() conditionally. This will also allow us to execute other operations conditionally, which will be done in the next patch. There are no functional changes.

diff_setup_done() has historically returned an error code, but lost the last nonzero return in 943d5b7 (allow diff.renamelimit to be set regardless of -M/-C, 2006-08-09). The callers were in a pretty confused state: some actually checked for the return code, and some did not. Let it return void, and patch all callers to take this into account. This conveniently also gets rid of a handful of different(!) error messages that could never be triggered anyway. Note that the function can still die().

2012-07-29diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel valueLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+6
The diff code represents paths using the diff_filespec struct. This struct has a sha1 to represent the sha1 of the content at that path, as well as a sha1_valid member which indicates whether its sha1 field is actually useful. If sha1_valid is not true, then the filespec represents a working tree file (e.g., for the no-index case, or for when the index is not up-to-date). The diff_filespec is only used internally, though. At the interfaces to the diff subsystem, callers feed the sha1 directly, and we create a diff_filespec from it. It's at that point that we look at the sha1 and decide whether it is valid or not; callers may pass the null sha1 as a sentinel value to indicate that it is not. We should not typically see the null sha1 coming from any other source (e.g., in the index itself, or from a tree). However, a corrupt tree might have a null sha1, which would cause "diff --patch" to accidentally diff the working tree version of a file instead of treating it as a blob. This patch extends the edges of the diff interface to accept a "sha1_valid" flag whenever we accept a sha1, and to use that flag when creating a filespec. In some cases, this means passing the flag through several layers, making the code change larger than would be desirable. One alternative would be to simply die() upon seeing corrupted trees with null sha1s. However, this fix more directly addresses the problem (while bogus sha1s in a tree are probably a bad thing, it is really the sentinel confusion sending us down the wrong code path that is what makes it devastating). And it means that git is more capable of examining and debugging these corrupted trees. For example, you can still "diff --raw" such a tree to find out when the bogus entry was introduced; you just cannot do a "--patch" diff (just as you could not with any other corrupted tree, as we do not have any content to diff).

2012-06-15fix pager.diff with diff --no-indexLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+17
git-diff does not rely on the git wrapper to setup its pager; instead, it sets it up on its own after seeing whether --quiet or --exit-code has been specified. After diff_no_index was split off from cmd_diff, commit b3fde6c (git diff --no-index: default to page like other diff frontends, 2008-05-26) duplicated the one-liner from cmd_diff to turn on the pager. Later, commit 8f0359f (Allow pager of diff command be enabled/disabled, 2008-07-21) taught the the version in cmd_diff to respect the pager.diff config, but the version in diff_no_index was left behind. This meant that git -c pager.diff=0 diff a b would not use a pager, but git -c pager.diff=0 diff --no-index a b would. Let's fix it by factoring out a common function. While we're there, let's update the antiquated comment, which claims that the pager interferes with propagating the exit code; this has not been the case since ea27a18 (spawn pager via run_command interface, 2008-07-22).

2012-03-01diff --stat: add config option to limit graph widthLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-1/+2
Config option diff.statGraphWidth=<width> is equivalent to --stat-graph-width=<width>, except that the config option is ignored by format-patch. For the graph-width limiting to be usable, it should happen 'automatically' once configured, hence the config option. Nevertheless, graph width limiting only makes sense when used on a wide terminal, so it should not influence the output of format-patch, which adheres to the 80-column standard.

2012-03-01diff --stat: use the full terminal widthLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-0/+3
Default to the real terminal width for diff --stat output, instead of the hard-coded 80 columns. Some projects (especially in Java), have long filename paths, with nested directories or long individual filenames. When files are renamed, the filename part in stat output can be almost useless. If the middle part between { and } is long (because the file was moved to a completely different directory), then most of the path would be truncated. It makes sense to detect and use the full terminal width and display full filenames if possible. The are commands like diff, show, and log, which can adapt the output to the terminal width. There are also commands like format-patch, whose output should be independent of the terminal width. Since it is safer to use the 80-column default, the real terminal width is only used if requested by the calling code by setting diffopts.stat_width=-1. Normally this value is 0, and can be set by the user only to a non-negative value, so -1 is safe to use internally. This patch only changes the diff builtin to use the full terminal width.

2011-08-19want_color: automatically fallback to color.uiLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+0
All of the "do we want color" flags default to -1 to indicate that we don't have any color configured. This value is handled in one of two ways: 1. In porcelain, we check early on whether the value is still -1 after reading the config, and set it to the value of color.ui (which defaults to 0). 2. In plumbing, it stays untouched as -1, and want_color defaults it to off. This works fine, but means that every porcelain has to check and reassign its color flag. Now that want_color gives us a place to put this check in a single spot, we can do that, simplifying the calling code.

"git diff --cached" (without revision) used to mean "git diff --cached HEAD" (i.e. the user was too lazy to type HEAD). This "correctly" failed when there was no commit yet. But was that correctness useful? This patch changes the definition of what particular command means. It is a request to show what _would_ be committed without further "git add".

I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
