2005-10-10Add ".git/config" file parserLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+1
This is a first cut at a very simple parser for a git config file. The format of the file is a simple ini-file like thing, with simple variable/value pairs. You can (and should) make the variables have a simple single-level scope, ie a valid file looks something like this: # # This is the config file, and # a '#' or ';' character indicates # a comment # ; core variables [core] ; Don't trust file modes filemode = false ; Our diff algorithm [diff] external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u" renames = true which parses into three variables: "core.filemode" is associated with the string "false", and "diff.external" gets the appropriate quoted value. Right now we only react to one variable: "core.filemode" is a boolean that decides if we should care about the 0100 (user-execute) bit of the stat information. Even that is just a parsing demonstration - this doesn't actually implement that st_mode compare logic itself. Different programs can react to different config options, although they should always fall back to calling "git_default_config()" on any config option name that they don't recognize.

2005-09-15Plug diff leaks.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
It is a bit embarrassing that it took this long for a fix since the problem was first reported on Aug 13th. Message-ID: <87y876gl1r.wl@mail2.atmark-techno.com> From: Yasushi SHOJI <yashi@atmark-techno.com> Newsgroups: gmane.comp.version-control.git Subject: [patch] possible memory leak in diff.c::diff_free_filepair() Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2005 19:58:56 +0900 This time I used valgrind to make sure that it does not overeagerly discard memory that is still being used.

2005-08-16[PATCH] Make "git diff" work inside relative subdirectoriesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+13
We always show the diff as an absolute path, but pathnames to diff are taken relative to the current working directory (and if no pathnames are given, the default ends up being all of the current working directory). Note that "../xyz" also works, so you can do cd linux/drivers/char git diff ../block and it will generate a diff of the linux/drivers/block changes.

2005-07-14Split up "diff_format" into "format" and "line_termination".Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-9/+6
This removes the separate "formats" for name and name-with-zero- termination. It also removes the difference between HUMAN and MACHINE formats, and they both become DIFF_FORMAT_RAW, with the difference being just in the line and inter-filename termination. It also makes the code easier to understand.

2005-07-13[PATCH] git-diff-*: --name-only and --name-only-z.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+8
Porcelain layers often want to find only names of changed files, and even with diff-raw output format they end up having to pick out only the filename. Support --name-only (and --name-only-z for xargs -0 and cpio -0 users that want to treat filenames with embedded newlines sanely) flag to help them.

I'm probably not the only one whose fingers have gotten hard-wired to use "-u" for "unified diff".
2005-06-26Add "--pretty=full" format that also shows committer.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-13/+0
Also move the common implementation of parsing the --pretty argument format into commit.c rather than having duplicates in diff-tree.c and rev-list.c.
2005-06-23Clean up git-diff-tree 'header' generationLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-12/+6
2005-06-19[PATCH] Make -C less eager.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
Like diff-tree, this patch makes -C option for diff-* brothers to use only pre-image of modified files as rename/copy detection by default. Give --find-copies-harder to use unmodified files to find copies from as well. This also fixes "diff-files -C" problem earlier noticed by Linus. It was feeding the null sha1 even when the file in the work tree was known to match what is in the index file. This resulted in diff-files showing everything in the project.

2005-06-12[PATCH] Add --diff-filter= output restriction to diff-* family.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+9
This is a halfway between debugging aid and a helper to write an ultra-smart merge scripts. The new option takes a string that consists of a list of "status" letters, and limits the diff output to only those classes of changes, with two exceptions: - A broken pair (aka "complete rewrite"), does not match D (deleted) or N (created). Use B to look for them. - The letter "A" in the diff-filter string does not match anything itself, but causes the entire diff that contains selected patches to be output (this behaviour is similar to that of --pickaxe-all for the -S option). For example, $ git-rev-list HEAD | git-diff-tree --stdin -s -v -B -C --diff-filter=BCR shows a list of commits that have complete rewrite, copy, or rename.

2005-06-12[PATCH] diff-tree: --find-copies-harderLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+10
Normally, diff-tree does not feed unchanged filepair to diffcore for performance reasons, so copies are detected only when the source file of the copy happens to be modified in the same changeset. This adds --find-copies-harder flag to tell diff-tree to sacrifice the performance in order to find copies the same way as other commands in diff-* family.

2005-06-12[PATCH] Support commit_format in diff-treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+19

2005-06-05pretty_print_commit: add different formatsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-1/+2
You can ask to print out "raw" format (full headers, full body), "medium" format (author and date, full body) or "short" format (author only, condensed body). Use "git-rev-list --pretty=short HEAD | less -S" for an example.
2005-06-03[PATCH] diff: Clean up diff_scoreopt_parse().Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+6
This cleans up diff_scoreopt_parse() function that is used to parse the fractional notation -B, -C and -M option takes. The callers are modified to check for errors and complain. Earlier they silently ignored malformed input and falled back on the default. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-06-03[PATCH] diff: Fix docs and add -O to diff-helper.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This patch updates diff documentation and usage strings: - clarify the semantics of -R. It is not "output in reverse"; rather, it is "I will feed diff backwards". Semantically they are different when -C is involved. - describe -O in usage strings of diff-* brothers. It was implemented, documented but not described in usage text. Also it adds -O to diff-helper. Like -S (and unlike -M/-C/-B), this option can work on sanitized diff-raw output produced by the diff-* brothers. While we are at it, the call it makes to diffcore is cleaned up to use the diffcore_std() like everybody else, and the declaration for the low level diffcore routines are moved from diff.h (public) to diffcore.h (private between diff.c and diffcore backends).

2005-06-01[PATCH] diff: mode bits fixesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
The core GIT repository has trees that record regular file mode in 0664 instead of normalized 0644 pattern. Comparing such a tree with another tree that records the same file in 0644 pattern without content changes with git-diff-tree causes it to feed otherwise unmodified pairs to the diff_change() routine, which triggers a sanity check routine and barfs. This patch fixes the problem, along with the fix to another caller that uses unnormalized mode bits to call diff_change() routine in a similar way. Without this patch, you will see "fatal error" from diff-tree when you run git-deltafy-script on the core GIT repository itself.

2005-05-30[PATCH] Add -O<orderfile> option to diff-* brothers.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+7
A new diffcore filter diffcore-order is introduced. This takes a text file each of whose line is a shell glob pattern. Patches that match a glob pattern on an earlier line in the file are output before patches that match a later line, and patches that do not match any glob pattern are output last. A typical orderfile for git project probably should look like this: README Makefile Documentation *.h *.c Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-30[PATCH] Add -B flag to diff-* brothers.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+7
A new diffcore transformation, diffcore-break.c, is introduced. When the -B flag is given, a patch that represents a complete rewrite is broken into a deletion followed by a creation. This makes it easier to review such a complete rewrite patch. The -B flag takes the same syntax as the -M and -C flags to specify the minimum amount of non-source material the resulting file needs to have to be considered a complete rewrite, and defaults to 99% if not specified. As the new test t4008-diff-break-rewrite.sh demonstrates, if a file is a complete rewrite, it is broken into a delete/create pair, which can further be subjected to the usual rename detection if -M or -C is used. For example, if file0 gets completely rewritten to make it as if it were rather based on file1 which itself disappeared, the following happens: The original change looks like this: file0 --> file0' (quite different from file0) file1 --> /dev/null After diffcore-break runs, it would become this: file0 --> /dev/null /dev/null --> file0' file1 --> /dev/null Then diffcore-rename matches them up: file1 --> file0' The internal score values are finer grained now. Earlier maximum of 10000 has been raised to 60000; there is no user visible changes but there is no reason to waste available bits.

2005-05-30[PATCH] diff: consolidate various calls into diffcore.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+3

2005-05-29[PATCH] Optimize diff-tree -[CM] --stdinLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
This attempts to optimize "diff-tree -[CM] --stdin", which compares successible tree pairs. This optimization does not make much sense for other commands in the diff-* brothers. When reading from --stdin and using rename/copy detection, the patch makes diff-tree to read the current index file first. This is done to reuse the optimization used by diff-cache in the non-cached case. Similarity estimator can avoid expanding a blob if the index says what is in the work tree has an exact copy of that blob already expanded. Another optimization the patch makes is to check only file sizes first to terminate similarity estimation early. In order for this to work, it needs a way to tell the size of the blob without expanding it. Since an obvious way of doing it, which is to keep all the blobs previously used in the memory, is too costly, it does so by keeping the filesize for each object it has already seen in memory.

2005-05-29[PATCH] Add --pickaxe-all to diff-* brothers.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+6

2005-05-27git-diff-tree: simplify header output with '-z'Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-12/+5
No need to make them multiple lines, in fact we explicitly don't want that. This also fixes a 64-bit problem pointed out by Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer, where we gave "%.*s" a "ptrdiff_t" length argument instead of an "int".
2005-05-26git-diff-tree: don't use diffcore_pathspec()Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-2/+0
diff-tree does the culling of uninteresting paths internally, and fundamentally has to do so for performance reasons. So there's no point in calling the separate pathname culling logic here, especially as it seems slightly broken.
2005-05-25[PATCH] show changed tree objects with recursive git-diff-treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+8
This adds a "-t" flag to tell the raw diff output to include the tree objects in the output when doing a recursive diff. Since that's how the non-recursive output already handles trees and the flag thus doesn't make sense without "-r", I made "-t" imply "-r".

2005-05-23[PATCH] Fix diff-pruning logic which was running prune too early.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+0
For later stages to reorder patches, pruning logic and rename detection logic should not decide which delete to discard (because another entry said it will take over the file as a rename) until the very end.

Thomas Glanzmann noticed that diff-tree -z HEAD piped to diff-helper -z did not work. Since diff-helper -z expects NUL terminated lines, we should generate such. The output side of the diff-helper should always be using '\n' termination; earlier it used the same line_termination used for the input side, which was a mistake.

This moves the path selection logic from individual programs to a new diffcore transformer (diff-tree still needs to have its own for performance reasons). Also the header printing code in diff-tree was tweaked not to produce anything when pickaxe is in effect and there is nothing interesting to report. An interesting example is the following in the GIT archive itself: $ git-whatchanged -p -C -S'or something in a real script' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-21[PATCH] The diff-raw format updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+6
Update the diff-raw format as Linus and I discussed, except that it does not use sequence of underscore '_' letters to express nonexistence. All '0' mode is used for that purpose instead. The new diff-raw format can express rename/copy, and the earlier restriction that -M and -C _must_ be used with the patch format output is no longer necessary. The patch makes -M and -C flags independent of -p flag, so you need to say git-whatchanged -M -p to get the diff/patch format. Updated are both documentations and tests.

2005-05-21[PATCH] Introducing software archaeologist's tool "pickaxe".Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+10
This steals the "pickaxe" feature from JIT and make it available to the bare Plumbing layer. From the command line, the user gives a string he is intersted in. Using the diff-core infrastructure previously introduced, it filters the differences to limit the output only to the diffs between <src> and <dst> where the string appears only in one but not in the other. For example: $ ./git-rev-list HEAD | ./git-diff-tree -Sdiff-tree-helper --stdin -M would show the diffs that touch the string "diff-tree-helper". In real software-archaeologist application, you would typically look for a few to several lines of code and see where that code came from. The "pickaxe" module runs after "rename/copy detection" module, so it even crosses the file rename boundary, as the above example demonstrates.

2005-05-21[PATCH] Diff overhaul, adding half of copy detection.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+7
This introduces the diff-core, the layer between the diff-tree family and the external diff interface engine. The calls to the interface diff-tree family uses (diff_change and diff_addremove) have not changed and will not change. The purpose of the diff-core layer is to provide an infrastructure to transform the set of differences sent from the applications, before sending them to the external diff interface. The recently introduced rename detection code has been rewritten to use the diff-core facility. When applications send in separate creates and deletes, matching ones are transformed into a single rename-and-edit diff, and sent out to the external diff interface as such. This patch also enhances the rename detection code further to be able to detect copies. Currently this happens only as long as copy sources appear as part of the modified files, but there already is enough provision for callers to report unmodified files to diff-core, so that they can be also used as copy source candidates. Extending the callers this way will be done in a separate patch. Please see and marvel at how well this works by trying out the newly added t/t4003-diff-rename-1.sh test script.

2005-05-19[PATCH] diff overhaulLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-31/+15
This cleans up the way calls are made into the diff core from diff-tree family and diff-helper. Earlier, these programs had "if (generating_patch)" sprinkled all over the place, but those ugliness are gone and handled uniformly from the diff core, even when not generating patch format. This also allowed diff-cache and diff-files to acquire -R (reverse) option to generate diff in reverse. Users of diff-tree can swap two trees easily so I did not add -R there. [ Linus' note: I'll add -R to "diff-tree" too, since a "commit diff" doesn't have another tree to switch around: the other tree is always the parent(s) of the commit ] Also -M<digits-as-mantissa> suggestion made by Linus has been implemented.
