9ec26e7977 (difftool: fix argument handling in subdirs, 2016-07-18)
corrected how path arguments are handled in a subdirectory, but
it introduced a regression in how entries outside of the
subdirectory are handled by dir-diff.
When preparing the right-side of the diff we only include the
changed paths in the temporary area.
The left side of the diff is constructed from a temporary
index that is built from the same set of changed files, but it
was being constructed from within the subdirectory. This is a
problem because the indexed paths are toplevel-relative, and
thus they were not getting added to the index.
Teach difftool to chdir to the toplevel of the repository before
preparing its temporary indexes. This ensures that all of the
toplevel-relative paths are valid.
Add test cases to more thoroughly exercise this scenario.

Call Git::command() and friends directly wherever possible.
This makes it clear that these operations can be invoked directly
without needing to manage the current directory and related GIT_*
environment variables.
Eliminate find_repository() since we can now use wc_path() and
not worry about side-effects involving environment variables.

Environment variables are global and hard to reason about.
Use the `--git-dir` and `--work-tree` arguments when invoking `git`
instead of relying on the environment.
Add a test to ensure that difftool's dir-diff feature works when these
variables are present in the environment.

When in a subdirectory of a repository, path arguments should be
interpreted relative to the current directory not the root of the
working tree.
The Git::repository object passed into setup_dir_diff() is configured to
handle this correctly but we create a new Git::repository here without
setting the WorkingSubdir argument. By simply using the existing
repository, path arguments are handled relative to the current
directory.

When files are unmerged they can show up as both unmerged and
modified in the output of `git diff --raw`. This causes
difftool's dir-diff to create filesystem entries for the same
path twice, which fails when it encounters a duplicate path.
Ensure that each worktree path is only processed once.
Add a test to demonstrate the breakage.

The caller is preparing a narrowed-down copy of the working tree and
this function is asked if the path should be included in that copy.
If we say yes, the path from the working tree will be either symlinked
or copied into the narrowed-down copy.
For any path that is a symbolic link, the caller later fixes up the
narrowed-down copy by unlinking the path and replacing it with a
regular file it writes out that mimics the way how "git diff"
compares symbolic links.
Let's answer "no, you do not want to copy/symlink the working tree
file" for all symbolic links from this function, as we know the
result will not be used because it will be overwritten anyway.
Incidentally, this also stops the function from feeding a symbolic
link in the working tree to hash-object, which is a wrong thing to
do to begin with. The link may be pointing at a directory, or worse
may be dangling (both would be noticed as an error). Even if the
link points at a regular file, hashing the contents of a file that
is pointed at by the link is not correct (Git hashes the contents of
the link itself, not the pointee).

Modern versions of "git submodule" use .git-files to setup the
submodule directory. When run in a "git submodule"-created
repository "git difftool --dir-diff" dies with the following
error:
$ git difftool -d HEAD~
fatal: This operation must be run in a work tree
diff --raw --no-abbrev -z HEAD~: command returned error: 128
core.worktree is relative to the .git directory but the logic
in find_worktree() does not account for it.
Use `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` to find the worktree so that
the dir-diff feature works inside a submodule.

The temporary directory prepared by "difftool --dir-diff" to
show the result of a change can be modified by the user via
the tree diff program, and we try hard not to lose changes
to them after tree diff program returns to us.
However, the set of files to be copied back is computed
differently between --symlinks and --no-symlinks modes. The
former checks all paths that start out as identical to the
working tree file, while the latter checks paths that
already had a local modification in the working tree,
allowing changes made in the tree diff program to paths that
did not have any local change to be lost.

After running the user's diff tool, git-difftool will copy any files
that differ between the working tree and the temporary tree. This is
useful when the user edits the file in their diff tool but is wrong if
they edit the working tree file while examining the diff.
Instead of copying unconditionally when the files differ, create and
index from the working tree files and only copy the temporary file back
if it was modified and the working tree file was not. If both files
have been modified, print a warning and exit with an error.
Note that we cannot use an existing index in git-difftool since those
contain the modified files that need to be checked out but here we are
looking at those files which are copied from the working tree and not
checked out. These are precisely the files which are not in the
existing indices.

"git difftool --dir-diff" made symlinks to working tree files when
preparing a temporary directory structure, so that accidental edits
of these files in the difftool are reflected back to the working
tree, but the logic to decide when to do so was not quite right.

difftool --dir-diff: symlink all files matching the working tree
difftool: avoid double slashes in symlink targets
git-difftool(1): fix formatting of --symlink description
|
|
Some users like to edit files in their diff tool when using "git
difftool --dir-diff --symlink" to compare against the working tree but
difftool currently only created symlinks when a file contains unstaged
changes.
Change this behaviour so that symlinks are created whenever the
right-hand side of the comparison has the same SHA1 as the file in the
working tree.
Note that textconv filters are handled in the same way as by git-diff
and if a clean filter is not the inverse of its smudge filter we already
get a null SHA1 from "diff --raw" and will symlink the file without
going through the new hash-object based check.

When 'difftool --dir-diff' is used to compare working tree files,
it always copies files from the tmp dir back to the working tree
when the diff tool is closed, even if the files were not modified
by the diff tool.
This causes the file timestamp to change. Files should only be
copied from the tmp dir back to the working copy if they were
actually modified.

Since bc7a96a (mergetool--lib: Refactor tools into separate files,
2011-08-18), it is possible to add a new diff tool by creating a simple
script in the '$(git --exec-path)/mergetools' directory. Updating the
difftool help text is still a manual process, and the documentation can
easily go out of sync.
This commit teaches difftool the '--tool-help' option, which:
- Reads the list of valid tools from 'mergetools/*'
- Determines which of them are actually installed
- Determines which are capable of diffing (i.e. not just a merge tool)
- Prints the resulting list for the user

In particular, test 14 'difftool last flag wins' in t7800 fails.
This is caused by git-difftool.perl passing both GIT_DIFFTOOL_NO_PROMPT
(='true') and GIT_DIFFTOOL_PROMPT (='true') to the difftool helper
script. Despite the appropriate key being deleted from the ENV
hash, it seems that once a key has been set in the hash, it gets
passed along to the system() call. (ie deleting the key does not
do the equivalent of unsetenv()).
In order to fix the problem, we keep track of the required prompt
state while processing the arguments, and then set the relevant
ENV hash key only once at the end.

Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already
used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but
t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2.
However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since
it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open
syntax:
sub run_cmd_pipe {
my $fh = undef;
open($fh, '-|', @_) or die;
return <$fh>;
}
Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as
filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even
more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1):
t2016-checkout-patch.sh
t3904-stash-patch.sh
t3701-add-interactive.sh
t7105-reset-patch.sh
t7501-commit.sh
t9700-perl-git.sh
Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.
The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.
All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.
