The original patch selection code was written for `git add -p`, and the
fundamental unit on which it works is a hunk.
We hacked around that to handle deletions back in 24ab81ae4d
(add-interactive: handle deletion of empty files, 2009-10-27). But `git
add -p` would never see a new file, since we only consider the set of
tracked files in the index.
However, since the same machinery was used for `git checkout -p` &
friends, we can see new files.
Handle this case specifically, adding a new prompt for it that is
modeled after the `deleted file` case.
This also fixes the problem where added _empty_ files could not be
staged via `git checkout -p`.

The first thing `git add -p` does is to generate a diff. If this diff
cannot be generated, `git add -p` should not continue as if nothing
happened, but instead fail.
What we *actually* do here is much broader: we now verify for *every*
`run_cmd_pipe()` call that the spawned process actually succeeded.
Note that we have to change two callers in this patch, as we need to
store the spawned process' output in a local variable, which means that
the callers can no longer decide whether to interpret the `return <$fh>`
in array or in scalar context.
This bug was noticed while writing a test case for the diff.algorithm
feature, and we let that test case double as a regression test for this
fixed bug, too.

"git checkout -p" needs to selectively apply a patch in reverse,
which did not work well.
* pw/add-p-recount:
add -p: fix checkout -p with pathological context
|
|
Commit fecc6f3a68 ("add -p: adjust offsets of subsequent hunks when one is
skipped", 2018-03-01) fixed adding hunks in the correct place when a
previous hunk has been skipped. However it did not address patches that
are applied in reverse. In that case we need to adjust the pre-image
offset so that when apply reverses the patch the post-image offset is
adjusted correctly. We subtract rather than add the delta as the patch
is reversed (the easiest way to think about it is to consider a hunk of
deletions that is skipped - in that case we want to reduce offset so we
need to subtract).

When user edits the patch in "git add -p" and the user's editor is
set to strip trailing whitespaces indiscriminately, an empty line
that is unchanged in the patch would become completely empty
(instead of a line with a sole SP on it). The code introduced in
Git 2.17 timeframe failed to parse such a patch, but now it learned
to notice the situation and cope with it.
* pw/add-p-recount:
add -p: fix counting empty context lines in edited patches
|
|
recount_edited_hunk() introduced in commit 2b8ea7f3c7 ("add -p:
calculate offset delta for edited patches", 2018-03-05) required all
context lines to start with a space, empty lines are not counted. This
was intended to avoid any recounting problems if the user had
introduced empty lines at the end when editing the patch. However this
introduced a regression into 'git add -p' as it seems it is common for
editors to strip the trailing whitespace from empty context lines when
patches are edited thereby introducing empty lines that should be
counted. 'git apply' knows how to deal with such empty lines and POSIX
states that whether or not there is an space on an empty context line
is implementation defined [1].
Fix the regression by counting lines that consist solely of a newline
as well as lines starting with a space as context lines and add a test
to prevent future regressions.

add -p: fix 2.17.0-rc* regression due to moved code
|
|
Fix a regression in 88f6ffc1c2 ("add -p: only bind search key if
there's more than one hunk", 2018-02-13) which is present in
2.17.0-rc*, but not 2.16.0.
In Perl, regex variables like $1 always refer to the last regex
match. When the aforementioned change added a new regex match between
the old match and the corresponding code that was expecting $1, the $1
variable would always be undef, since the newly inserted regex match
doesn't have any captures.
As a result the "/" feature to search for a string in a hunk by regex
completely broke, on git.git:
$ perl -pi -e 's/Git/Tig/g' README.md
$ ./git --exec-path=$PWD add -p
[..]
Stage this hunk [y,n,q,a,d,j,J,g,/,s,e,?]? s

It's important that the diff-filter only filter the
individual lines, and that there remain a one-to-one mapping
between the input and output lines. Otherwise, things like
hunk-splitting will behave quite unexpectedly (e.g., you
think you are splitting at one point, but it has a different
effect in the text patch we apply).
We can't detect all problematic cases, but we can at least
catch the obvious case where we don't even have the correct
number of lines.

Recount the number of preimage and postimage lines in a hunk after it
has been edited so any change in the number of insertions or deletions
can be used to adjust the offsets of subsequent hunks. If an edited
hunk is subsequently split then the offset correction will be lost. It
would be possible to fix this if it is a problem, however the code
here is still an improvement on the status quo for the common case
where an edited hunk is applied without being split.
This is also a necessary step to removing '--recount' and
'--allow-overlap' from the invocation of 'git apply'. Before
'--recount' can be removed the splitting and coalescing counting needs
to be fixed to handle a missing newline at the end of a file. In order
to remove '--allow-overlap' there needs to be i) some way of verifying
the offset data in the edited hunk (probably by correlating the
preimage (or postimage if the patch is going to be applied in reverse)
lines of the edited and unedited versions to see if they are offset or
if any leading/trailing context lines have been removed) and ii) a way of
dealing with edited hunks that change context lines that are shared
with neighbouring hunks.

Since commit 8cbd431082 ("git-add--interactive: replace hunk
recounting with apply --recount", 2008-7-2) if a hunk is skipped then
we rely on the context lines to apply subsequent hunks in the right
place. While this works most of the time it is possible for hunks to
end up being applied in the wrong place. To fix this adjust the offset
of subsequent hunks to correct for any change in the number of
insertions or deletions due to the skipped hunk. The change in offset
due to edited hunks that have the number of insertions or deletions
changed is ignored here, it will be fixed in the next commit.

For 'add -i' and 'add -p', the only action we can take on a dirty
submodule entry is update the index with a new value from its HEAD. The
content changes inside (from its own index, untracked files...) do not
matter, at least until 'git add -i' learns about launching a new
interactive add session inside a submodule.
Ignore all other submodules changes except HEAD. This reduces the number
of entries the user has to check through in 'git add -i', and the number
of 'no' they have to answer to 'git add -p' when dirty submodules are
present.

Since c9d961647 (i18n: add--interactive: mark

when the user asks to edit a hunk manually, we respect
core.commentChar in generating the edit instructions.
However, when we then strip out comment lines, we use a
simple regex like:
/^$commentChar/
If your chosen comment character is a regex metacharacter,
then that will behave in a confusing manner ("$", for
instance, would only eliminate blank lines, not actual
comment lines).
We can fix that by telling perl not to respect
metacharacters.

The prompt_yesno function loops indefinitely waiting for a
"y" or "n" response. But it doesn't handle EOF, meaning
that we can end up in an infinite loop of reading EOF from
stdin. One way to simulate that is with:
echo e | GIT_EDITOR='echo corrupt >' git add -p
Let's break out of the loop and propagate the undef to the
caller. Without modifying the callers that effectively turns
it into a "no" response. This is reasonable for both of the
current callers, and it leaves room for any future caller to
check for undef explicitly.

"git add -p <pathspec>" unnecessarily expanded the pathspec to a
list of individual files that matches the pathspec by running "git
ls-files <pathspec>", before feeding it to "git diff-index" to see
which paths have changes, because historically the pathspec
language supported by "diff-index" was weaker. These days they are
equivalent and there is no reason to internally expand it. This
helps both performance and avoids command line argument limit on
some platforms.
* jk/add-i-use-pathspecs:
add--interactive: do not expand pathspecs with ls-files
|
|
When we want to get the list of modified files, we first
expand any user-provided pathspecs with "ls-files", and then
feed the resulting list of paths as arguments to
"diff-index" and "diff-files". If your pathspec expands into
a large number of paths, you may run into one of two
problems:
1. The OS may complain about the size of the argument
list, and refuse to run. For example:
$ (ulimit -s 128 && git add -p drivers)
Can't exec "git": Argument list too long at .../git-add--interactive line 177.
Died at .../git-add--interactive line 177.
That's on the linux.git repository, which has about 20K
files in the "drivers" directory (none of them modified
in this case). The "ulimit -s" trick is necessary to
show the problem on Linux even for such a gigantic set
of paths. Other operating systems have much smaller
limits (e.g., a real-world case was seen with only 5K
files on OS X).
2. Even when it does work, it's really slow. The pathspec
code is not optimized for huge numbers of paths. Here's
the same case without the ulimit:
$ time git add -p drivers
No changes.
real 0m16.559s
user 0m53.140s
sys 0m0.220s
We can improve this by skipping "ls-files" completely, and
just feeding the original pathspecs to the diff commands.
This solution was discussed in 2010:
http://public-inbox.org/git/20100105041438.GB12574@coredump.intra.peff.net/
but at the time the diff code's pathspecs were more
primitive than those used by ls-files (e.g., they did not
support globs). Making the change would have caused a
user-visible regression, so we didn't.
Since then, the pathspec code has been unified, and the diff
commands natively understand pathspecs like '*.c'.
This patch implements that solution. That skips the
argument-list limits, and the result runs much faster:
$ time git add -p drivers
No changes.
real 0m0.149s
user 0m0.116s
sys 0m0.080s
There are two new tests. The first just exercises the
globbing behavior to confirm that we are not causing a
regression there. The second checks the actual argument
behavior using GIT_TRACE. We _could_ do it with the "ulimit
-s" trick, as above. But that would mean the test could only
run where "ulimit -s" works. And tests of that sort are
expensive, because we have to come up with enough files to
actually bust the limit (we can't just shrink the "128" down
infinitely, since it is also the in-program stack size).
Finally, two caveats and possibilities for future work:
a. This fixes one argument-list expansion, but there may
be others. In fact, it's very likely that if you run
"git add -i" and select a large number of modified
files that the script would try to feed them all to a
single git command.
In practice this is probably fine. The real issue here
is that the argument list was growing with the _total_
number of files, not the number of modified or selected
files.
b. If the repository contains filenames with literal wildcard
characters (e.g., "foo*"), the original code expanded
them via "ls-files" and then fed those wildcard names
to "diff-index", which would have treated them as
wildcards. This was a bug, which is now fixed (though
unless you really go through some contortions with
":(literal)", it's likely that your original pathspec
would match whatever the accidentally-expanded wildcard
would anyway).
So this takes us one step closer to working correctly
with files whose names contain wildcard characters, but
it's likely that others remain (e.g., if "git add -i"
feeds the selected paths to "git add").

When invoked as "git add -i", each menu interactive menu
option prompts the user to select a list of files. This
includes the "patch" option, which gets the list before
starting the hunk-selection loop.
As "git add -p", it behaves differently, and jumps straight
to the hunk selection loop.
Since 0539d5e6d (i18n: add--interactive: mark patch prompt
for translation, 2016-12-14), the "add -i" case mistakenly
jumps to straight to the hunk-selection loop. Prior to that
commit the distinction between the two cases was managed by
the $patch_mode variable. That commit used $patch_mode for
something else, and moved the old meaning to the "$cmd"
variable. But it forgot to update the $patch_mode check
inside patch_update_cmd() which controls the file-list
behavior.
The simplest fix would be to change that line to check $cmd.
But while we're here, let's use a less obscure name for this
flag: $patch_mode_only, a boolean which tells whether we are
in full-interactive mode or only in patch-mode.

When a patch inserts a block of lines, whose last lines are the
same as the existing lines that appear before the inserted block,
"git diff" can choose any place between these existing lines as the
boundary between the pre-context and the added lines (adjusting the
end of the inserted block as appropriate) to come up with variants
of the same patch, and some variants are easier to read than others.
We have been trying to improve the choice of this boundary, and Git
2.11 shipped with an experimental "compaction-heuristic". Since
then another attempt to improve the logic further resulted in a new
"indent-heuristic" logic. It is agreed that the latter gives better
result overall, and the former outlived its usefulness.
Retire "compaction", and keep "indent" as an experimental feature.
The latter hopefully will be turned on by default in a future
release, but that should be done as a separate step.

Mark words 'nothing', 'unchanged' and 'binary' used to display what has
been staged or not, in "git add -i" status command.
Alternatively one could mark N__('nothing') no-op in order to
xgettext(1) extract the string and then trigger the translation at run
time only with __($print->{FILE}), but that has the side effect of triggering
retrieval of translations for the changes indicator too (e.g. +2/-1)
which may or may not be a problem.
To avoid that potential problem, mark only where there is certain to
trigger translation only of those words but in this case we must also
retrieve the translation for the eq tests, since the value assigned was
of the translation, not the English source.

Mark prompt message assembled in place for translation, unfolding each
use case for each entry in the %patch_modes hash table.
Previously, this script relied on whether $patch_mode was set to run the
command patch_update_cmd() or show status and loop the main loop. Now,
it uses $cmd to indicate we must run patch_update_cmd() and $patch_mode
is used to tell which flavor of the %patch_modes are we on. This is
introduced in order to be able to mark and unfold the message prompt
knowing in which context we are.
The tracking of context was done previously by point %patch_mode_flavour
hash table to the correct entry of %patch_modes, focusing only on value
of %patch_modes. Now, we are also interested in the key ('staged',
'stash', 'checkout_head', ...).

Mark messages in here-documents without interpolation for translation.
The here-document delimiter \EOF, which is the same as 'EOF', indicates
that the text is to be treated literally without interpolation of its
content. Unfortunately xgettext is not able to extract here-documents
delimited with \EOF but it is with delimiter enclosed in single quotes.
So change \EOF to 'EOF', although in this case does not make
difference what variation of here-document to use since there is nothing
to interpolate.

Some groups of added/deleted lines in diffs can be slid up or down,
because lines at the edges of the group are not unique. Picking good
shifts for such groups is not a matter of correctness but definitely has
a big effect on aesthetics. For example, consider the following two
diffs. The first is what standard Git emits:
--- a/9c572b21dd090a1e5c5bb397053bf8043ffe7fb4:git-send-email.perl
+++ b/6dcfa306f2b67b733a7eb2d7ded1bc9987809edb:git-send-email.perl

This patch teaches Git to pick better positions for such "diff sliders"
using heuristics that take the positions of nearby blank lines and the
indentation of nearby lines into account.
The existing Git code basically always shifts such "sliders" as far down
in the file as possible. The only exception is when the slider can be
aligned with a group of changed lines in the other file, in which case
Git favors depicting the change as one add+delete block rather than one
add and a slightly offset delete block. This naive algorithm often
yields ugly diffs.
Commit d634d61ed6 improved the situation somewhat by preferring to
position add/delete groups to make their last line a blank line, when
that is possible. This heuristic does more good than harm, but (1) it
can only help if there are blank lines in the right places, and (2)
always picks the last blank line, even if there are others that might be
better. The end result is that it makes perhaps 1/3 as many errors as
the default Git algorithm, but that still leaves a lot of ugly diffs.
This commit implements a new and much better heuristic for picking
optimal "slider" positions using the following approach: First observe
that each hypothetical positioning of a diff slider introduces two
splits: one between the context lines preceding the group and the first
added/deleted line, and the other between the last added/deleted line
and the first line of context following it. It tries to find the
positioning that creates the least bad splits.
Splits are evaluated based only on the presence and locations of nearby
blank lines, and the indentation of lines near the split. Basically, it
prefers to introduce splits adjacent to blank lines, between lines that
are indented less, and between lines with the same level of indentation.
In more detail:
1. It measures the following characteristics of a proposed splitting
position in a `struct split_measurement`:
* the number of blank lines above the proposed split
* whether the line directly after the split is blank
* the number of blank lines following that line
* the indentation of the nearest non-blank line above the split
* the indentation of the line directly below the split
* the indentation of the nearest non-blank line after that line
2. It combines the measured attributes using a bunch of
empirically-optimized weighting factors to derive a `struct
split_score` that measures the "badness" of splitting the text at
that position.
3. It combines the `split_score` for the top and the bottom of the
slider at each of its possible positions, and selects the position
that has the best `split_score`.
I determined the initial set of weighting factors by collecting a corpus
of Git histories from 29 open-source software projects in various
programming languages. I generated many diffs from this corpus, and
determined the best positioning "by eye" for about 6600 diff sliders. I
used about half of the repositories in the corpus (corresponding to
about 2/3 of the sliders) as a training set, and optimized the weights
against this corpus using a crude automated search of the parameter
space to get the best agreement with the manually-determined values.
Then I tested the resulting heuristic against the full corpus. The
results are summarized in the following table, in column `indent-1`:

In this table, the numbers are the count and percentage of human-rated
sliders that the corresponding algorithm got *wrong*. The columns are
* "repository" - the name of the repository used. I used the diffs
between successive non-merge commits on the HEAD branch of the
corresponding repository.
* "count" - the number of sliders that were human-rated. I chose most,
but not all, sliders to rate from those among which the various
algorithms gave different answers.
* "Git 2.9.0" - the default algorithm used by `git diff` in Git 2.9.0.
* "compaction" - the heuristic used by `git diff --compaction-heuristic`
in Git 2.9.0.
* "compaction-fixed" - the heuristic used by `git diff
--compaction-heuristic` after the fixes from earlier in this patch
series. Note that the results are not dramatically different than
those for "compaction". Both produce non-ideal diffs only about 1/3 as
often as the default `git diff`.
* "indent-1" - the new `--indent-heuristic` algorithm, using the first
set of weighting factors, determined as described above.
* "indent-2" - the new `--indent-heuristic` algorithm, using the final
set of weighting factors, determined as described below.
* `*` - indicates that repo was part of training set used to determine
the first set of weighting factors.
The fact that the heuristic performed nearly as well on the test set as
on the training set in column "indent-1" is a good indication that the
heuristic was not over-trained. Given that fact, I ran a second round of
optimization, using the entire corpus as the training set. The resulting
set of weights gave the results in column "indent-2". These are the
weights included in this patch.
The final result gives consistently and significantly better results
across the whole corpus than either `git diff` or `git diff
--compaction-heuristic`. It makes only about 1/30 as many errors as the
former and about 1/10 as many errors as the latter. (And a good fraction
of the remaining errors are for diffs that involve weirdly-formatted
code, sometimes apparently machine-generated.)
The tools that were used to do this optimization and analysis, along
with the human-generated data values, are recorded in a separate project
[1].
This patch adds a new command-line option `--indent-heuristic`, and a
new configuration setting `diff.indentHeuristic`, that activate this
heuristic. This interface is only meant for testing purposes, and should
be finalized before including this change in any release.
