2013-01-16diff: Introduce --diff-algorithm command line optionLibravatar Michal Privoznik1-1/+11
Since command line options have higher priority than config file variables and taking previous commit into account, we need a way how to specify myers algorithm on command line. However, inventing `--myers` is not the right answer. We need far more general option, and that is `--diff-algorithm`.

2013-01-16config: Introduce diff.algorithm variableLibravatar Michal Privoznik1-0/+24
Some users or projects prefer different algorithms over others, e.g. patience over myers or similar. However, specifying appropriate argument every time diff is to be used is impractical. Moreover, creating an alias doesn't play nicely with other tools based on diff (git-show for instance). Hence, a configuration variable which is able to set specific algorithm is needed. For now, these four values are accepted: 'myers' (which has the same effect as not setting the config variable at all), 'minimal', 'patience' and 'histogram'.

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.

2012-10-29parse_dirstat_params(): use string_list to split comma-separated stringLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-19/+21
Use string_list_split_in_place() to split the comma-separated parameters string. This simplifies the code and also fixes a bug: the old code made calls like memcmp(p, "lines", p_len) which needn't work if p_len is different than the length of the constant string (and could illegally access memory if p_len is larger than the length of the constant string). When p_len was less than the length of the constant string, the old code would have allowed some abbreviations to be accepted (e.g., "cha" for "changes") but this seems to have been a bug rather than a feature, because (1) it is not documented; (2) no attempt was made to handle ambiguous abbreviations, like "c" for "changes" vs "cumulative".

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).

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.
