2012-11-27diff --shortstat: do not count "unmerged" entriesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+2

2012-11-27diff --stat: do not count "unmerged" entriesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
Even though we show a separate *UNMERGED* entry in the patch and diffstat output (or in the --raw format, for that matter) in addition to and separately from the diff against the specified stage (defaulting to #2) for unmerged paths, they should not be counted in the total number of files affected---that would lead to counting the same path twice. The separation done by the previous step makes this fix simple and straightforward. Among the filepairs in diff_queue, paths that weren't modified, and the extra "unmerged" entries do not count as total number of files. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-11-27diff --stat: move the "total count" logic to the last loopLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-9/+12
The diffstat generation logic, with --stat-count limit, is implemented as three loops. - The first counts the width necessary to show stats up to specified number of entries, and notes up to how many entries in the data we need to iterate to show the graph; - The second iterates that many times to draw the graph, adjusts the number of "total modified files", and counts the total added/deleted lines for the part that was shown in the graph; - The third iterates over the remainder and only does the part to count "total added/deleted lines" and to adjust "total modified files" without drawing anything. Move the logic to count added/deleted lines and modified files from the second loop to the third loop. This incidentally fixes a bug. The third loop was not filtering binary changes (counted in bytes) from the total added/deleted as it should. The second loop implemented this correctly, so if a binary change appeared earlier than the --stat-count cutoff, the code counted number of added/deleted lines correctly, but if it appeared beyond the cutoff, the number of lines would have mixed with the byte count in the buggy third loop.

2012-10-17Fix "git diff --stat" for interesting - but empty - file changesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-10/+15
The behavior of "git diff --stat" is rather odd for files that have zero lines of changes: it will discount them entirely unless they were renames. Which means that the stat output will simply not show files that only had "other" changes: they were created or deleted, or their mode was changed. Now, those changes do show up in the summary, but so do renames, so the diffstat logic is inconsistent. Why does it show renames with zero lines changed, but not mode changes or added files with zero lines changed? So change the logic to not check for "is_renamed", but for "is_interesting" instead, where "interesting" is judged to be any action but a pure data change (because a pure data change with zero data changed really isn't worth showing, if we ever get one in our diffpairs). So if you did chmod +x Makefile git diff --stat before, it would show empty (" 0 files changed"), with this it shows Makefile | 0 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) which I think is a more correct diffstat (and then with "--summary" it shows *what* the metadata change to Makefile was - this is completely consistent with our handling of renamed files). Side note: the old behavior was *really* odd. With no changes at all, "git diff --stat" output was empty. With just a chmod, it said "0 files changed". No way is our legacy behavior sane.

2012-08-05Fix '\ No newline...' annotation in rewrite diffsLibravatar Adam Butcher1-0/+1
When a file that ends with an incomplete line is expressed as a complete rewrite with the -B option, git diff incorrectly appends the incomplete line indicator "\ No newline at end of file" after such a line, rather than writing it on a line of its own (the output codepath for normal output without -B does not have this problem). Add a LF after the incomplete line before writing the "\ No newline ..." out to fix this. Add a couple of tests to confirm that the indicator comment is generated on its own line in both plain diff and rewrite mode.

2012-07-29diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel valueLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+10
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).

2012-07-17diff: correctly disable external_diff with --no-ext-diffLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+5
Upon seeing a type-change filepair, "diff --no-ext-diff" does not show the usual "deletion followed by addition" split patch and does not run the external diff driver either. This is because the logic to disable external diff was placed at a wrong level in the callchain. run_diff_cmd() decides to show the split patch only when external diff driver is not configured or specified via GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF environment, but this is done before checking if --no-ext-diff was given. To make things worse, run_diff_cmd() checks --no-ext-diff and disables the output for such a filepair completely, as the callchain below it (e.g. builtin_diff) does not want to handle typechange filepairs.

Due to the way "git diff --no-index" is bolted onto by touching the low level code that is shared with the rest of the "git diff" code, even though it has to work in a very different way, any comparison that involves a file "-" at the root level incorrectly tried to read from the standard input.

Also make sure "-" from the command line stays a special token "read from the standard input", even if we later decide to sanitize the result from prefix_filename() function in a few obvious ways, e.g. removing unnecessary "./" prefix, duplicated slashes "//" in the middle, etc. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-04-30diff --stat: use less columns for change countsLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-10/+38
Number of columns required for change counts is now computed based on the maximum number of changed lines instead of being fixed. This means that usually a few more columns will be available for the filenames and the graph. The graph width logic is also modified to include enough space for "Bin XXX -> YYY bytes". If changes to binary files are mixed with changes to text files, change counts are padded to take at least three columns. And the other way around, if change counts require more than three columns, then "Bin"s are padded to align with the change count. This way, the +- part starts in the same column as "XXX -> YYY" part for binary files. This makes the graph easier to parse visually thanks to the empty column. This mimics the layout of diff --stat before this change. Tests and the tutorial are updated to reflect the new --stat output. This means either the removal of extra padding and/or the addition of up to three extra characters to truncated filenames. One test is added to check the graph alignment when a binary file change and text file change of more than 999 lines are committed together.

2012-03-23teach diffcore-rename to optionally ignore empty contentLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
Our rename detection is a heuristic, matching pairs of removed and added files with similar or identical content. It's unlikely to be wrong when there is actual content to compare, and we already take care not to do inexact rename detection when there is not enough content to produce good results. However, we always do exact rename detection, even when the blob is tiny or empty. It's easy to get false positives with an empty blob, simply because it is an obvious content to use as a boilerplate (e.g., when telling git that an empty directory is worth tracking via an empty .gitignore). This patch lets callers specify whether or not they are interested in using empty files as rename sources and destinations. The default is "yes", keeping the original behavior. It works by detecting the empty-blob sha1 for rename sources and destinations. One more flexible alternative would be to allow the caller to specify a minimum size for a blob to be "interesting" for rename detection. But that would catch small boilerplate files, not large ones (e.g., if you had the GPL COPYING file in many directories). A better alternative would be to allow a "-rename" gitattribute to allow boilerplate files to be marked as such. I'll leave the complexity of that solution until such time as somebody actually wants it. The complaints we've seen so far revolve around empty files, so let's start with the simple thing.

2012-03-14diff: tweak a _copy_ of diff_options with word-diffLibravatar Thomas Rast1-1/+4
When using word diff, the code sets the word_regex from various defaults if it was not set already. The problem is that it does this on the original diff_options, which will also be used in subsequent diffs. This means that when the word_regex is not given on the command line, only the first diff for which a setting for word_regex (either from attributes or diff.wordRegex) ever takes effect. This value then propagates to the rest of the diff runs and in particular prevents further attribute lookups.

2012-03-01diff -p: squelch "diff --git" header for stat-dirty pathsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The plumbing "diff" commands look at the working tree files without refreshing the index themselves for performance reasons (the calling script is expected to do that upfront just once, before calling one or more of them). In the early days of git, they showed the "diff --git" header before they actually ask the xdiff machinery to produce patches, and ended up showing only these headers if the real contents are the same and the difference they noticed was only because the stat info cached in the index did not match that of the working tree. It was too late for the implementation to take the header that it already emitted back. But 3e97c7c (No diff -b/-w output for all-whitespace changes, 2009-11-19) introduced necessary logic to keep the meta-information headers in a strbuf and delay their output until the xdiff machinery noticed actual changes. This was primarily in order to generate patches that ignore whitespaces. When operating under "-w" mode, we wouldn't know if the header is needed until we actually look at the resulting patch, so it was a sensible thing to do, but we did not realize that the same reasoning applies to stat-dirty paths. Later, 296c6bb (diff: fix "git show -C -C" output when renaming a binary file, 2010-05-26) generalized this machinery and added must_show_header toggle. This is turned on when the header must be shown even when there is no patch to be produced, e.g. only the mode was changed, or the path was renamed, without changing the contents. However, when it did so, it still kept the special case for the "-w" mode, which meant that the plumbing would keep showing these phantom changes. This corrects this historical inconsistency by allowing the plumbing to omit paths that are only stat-dirty from its output in the same way as it handles whitespace only changes under "-w" option. The change in the behaviour can be seen in the updated test. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-03-01diff --stat: enable limiting of the graph partLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-2/+21
A new option --stat-graph-width=<width> can be used to limit the width of the graph part even is more space is available. Up to <width> columns will be used for the graph. If commits changing a lot of lines are displayed in a wide terminal window (200 or more columns), and the +- graph uses the full width, the output can be hard to comfortably scan with a horizontal movement of human eyes. Messages wrapped to about 80 columns would be interspersed with very long +- lines. It makes sense to limit the width of the graph part to a fixed value (e.g. 70 columns), even if more columns are available.

2012-03-01diff --stat: use a maximum of 5/8 for the filename partLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-30/+60
The way that available columns are divided between the filename part and the graph part is modified to use as many columns as necessary for the filenames and the rest for the graph. If there isn't enough columns to print both the filename and the graph, at least 5/8 of available space is devoted to filenames. On a standard 80 column terminal, or if not connected to a terminal and using the default of 80 columns, this gives the same partition as before. The effect of this change is visible in the patch to the test vector in t4052; with a small change with long filename, it stops truncating the name part too short, and also allocates a bit more columns to the graph for larger changes.

2012-03-01diff --stat: use the full terminal widthLibravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-1/+4
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.
