Ok, I've really held off doing this too damn long, because I'm lazy, and I
was always hoping that somebody else would do it.
But no, people keep asking for it, but nobody actually did anything, so I
decided I might as well bite the bullet, and instead of telling people
they could add a "--follow" flag to "git log" to do what they want to do,
I decided that it looks like I just have to do it for them..
The code wasn't actually that complicated, in that the diffstat for this
patch literally says "70 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)", but I will have
to admit that in order to get to this fairly simple patch, you did have to
know and understand the internal git diff generation machinery pretty
well, and had to really be able to follow how commit generation interacts
with generating patches and generating the log.
So I suspect that while I was right that it wasn't that hard, I might have
been expecting too much of random people - this patch does seem to be
firmly in the core "Linus or Junio" territory.
To make a long story short: I'm sorry for it taking so long until I just
did it.
I'm not going to guarantee that this works for everybody, but you really
can just look at the patch, and after the appropriate appreciative noises
("Ooh, aah") over how clever I am, you can then just notice that the code
itself isn't really that complicated.
All the real new code is in the new "try_to_follow_renames()" function. It
really isn't rocket science: we notice that the pathname we were looking
at went away, so we start a full tree diff and try to see if we can
instead make that pathname be a rename or a copy from some other previous
pathname. And if we can, we just continue, except we show *that*
particular diff, and ever after we use the _previous_ pathname.
One thing to look out for: the "rename detection" is considered to be a
singular event in the _linear_ "git log" output! That's what people want
to do, but I just wanted to point out that this patch is *not* carrying
around a "commit,pathname" kind of pair and it's *not* going to be able to
notice the file coming from multiple *different* files in earlier history.
IOW, if you use "git log --follow", then you get the stupid CVS/SVN kind
of "files have single identities" kind of semantics, and git log will just
pick the identity based on the normal move/copy heuristics _as_if_ the
history could be linearized.
Put another way: I think the model is broken, but given the broken model,
I think this patch does just about as well as you can do. If you have
merges with the same "file" having different filenames over the two
branches, git will just end up picking _one_ of the pathnames at the point
where the newer one goes away. It never looks at multiple pathnames in
parallel.
And if you understood all that, you probably didn't need it explained, and
if you didn't understand the above blathering, it doesn't really mtter to
you. What matters to you is that you can now do
git log -p --follow builtin-rev-list.c
and it will find the point where the old "rev-list.c" got renamed to
"builtin-rev-list.c" and show it as such.

This removes slightly more lines than it adds, but the real reason for
doing this is that future optimizations will require more setup of the
tree descriptor, and so we want to do it in one place.
Also renamed the "desc.buf" field to "desc.buffer" just to trigger

This uses diff-tree --quiet machinery to terminate the internal
diff-tree between a commit and its parents via revs.pruning (not
revs.diffopt) as soon as we find enough about the tree change.
With respect to the optionally given pathspec, we are interested
if the tree of commit is identical to the parent's, only adds
new paths to the parent's, or there are other differences. As
soon as we find out that there is one such other kind of
difference, we do not have to compare the rest of the tree.
Because we do not call standard diff_addremove/diff_change, we
instruct the diff-tree machinery to stop early by setting
has_changes when we say we found the trees to be different.

This moves the code to set SHOWN on the commit from get_revision_1()

This removes the flag internally used by revision traversal to
decide which commits are indeed boundaries and renames it to
CHILD_SHOWN. builtin-bundle uses the symbol for its
verification, but I think the logic it uses it is wrong. The
flag is still useful but it is local to the git-bundle, so it is
renamed to PREREQ_MARK.

This cleans up the boundary processing in the commit walker. It
- rips out the boundary logic from the commit walker. Placing
"negative" commits in the revs->commits list was Ok if all we
cared about "boundary" was the UNINTERESTING limiting case,
but conceptually it was wrong.
- makes get_revision_1() function to walk the commits and return
the results as if there is no funny postprocessing flags such
as --reverse, --skip nor --max-count.
- makes get_revision() function the postprocessing phase:
If reverse is given, wait for get_revision_1() to give
everything that it would normally give, and then reverse it
before consuming.
If skip is given, skip that many before going further.
If max is given, stop when we gave out that many.
Now that we are about to return one positive commit, mark
the parents of that commit to be potential boundaries
before returning, iff we are doing the boundary processing.
Return the commit.
- After get_revision() finishes giving out all the positive
commits, if we are doing the boundary processing, we look at
the parents that we marked as potential boundaries earlier,
see if they are really boundaries, and give them out.
It loses more code than it adds, even when the new gc_boundary()
function, which is purely for early optimization, is counted.
Note that this patch is purely for eyeballing and discussion
only. It breaks git-bundle's verify logic because the logic
does not use BOUNDARY_SHOW flag for its internal computation
anymore. After we correct it not to attempt to affect the
boundary processing by setting the BOUNDARY_SHOW flag, we can
remove BOUNDARY_SHOW from revision.h and use that bit assignment
for the new CHILD_SHOWN flag.

So when we do
git show v1.4.4..v1.5.0
that's an illogical thing to do, since "git show" is defined to be a
non-revision-walking action, which means the range operator be pointless
and wrong. The fact that we happily accept it (and then _only_ show
v1.5.0, which is the positive end of the range) is quite arguably not very
logical.
We should complain, and say that you can only do "no_walk" with positive
refs. Negative object refs really don't make any sense unless you walk
the obejct list (or you're "git diff" and know about ranges explicitly).

This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified
easily. Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including
idiotic conversions like
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3))
=>
if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This was done by using this script in px.perl
#!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p
if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|;
}
if (/strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)/ && (length($1) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|;
}
and running:
$ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl

It used to ignore the return value of the helper function; now, it
expects it to return 0, and stops iteration upon non-zero return
values; this value is then passed on as the return value of
for_each_reflog_ent().
Further, it makes no sense to force the parsing upon the helper
functions; for_each_reflog_ent() now calls the helper function with
old and new sha1, the email, the timestamp & timezone, and the message.

If the user has been using reflog for a long time (e.g. since its
introduction) then it is very likely that an existing branch's
reflog may still mention commits which have long since been pruned
out of the repository.
Rather than aborting with a very useless error message during
git-repack, pack as many valid commits as we can get from the
reflog and let the user know that the branch's reflog contains
already pruned commits. A future 'git reflog expire' (or whatever
it finally winds up being called) can then be performed to expunge
those reflog entries.

This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include
system header files.
(1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and
xdelta code are exempt from the following rules;
(2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of
our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h,
builtin.h, pkt-line.h);
(3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"
need not be included in individual C source files.
(4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem
specific header files (e.g. expat.h).

This reverts commit 5761231975ceffa531d86d9bab0f9a9a370674f6.
Feeding symmetric difference to gitk is so useful, and it is the
same for other graphical Porcelains. Rather than forcing them
to pass --no-left-right, making it optional.
Noticed and reported by Jeff King.
|

When using symmetric differences, I think the user almost always
would want to know which side of the symmetry each commit came
from. So this removes --left-right option from the command
line, and turns it on automatically when a symmetric difference
is used ("git log --merge" counts as a symmetric difference
between HEAD and MERGE_HEAD).
Just in case, a new option --no-left-right is provided to defeat
this, but I do not know if it would be useful.

The output from "symmetric diff", i.e. A...B, does not
distinguish between commits that are reachable from A and the
ones that are reachable from B. In this picture, such a
symmetric diff includes commits marked with a and b.
x---b---b branch B
/ \ /
/ .
/ / \
o---x---a---a branch A
However, you cannot tell which ones are 'a' and which ones are
'b' from the output. Sometimes this is frustrating. This adds
an output option, --left-right, to rev-list.
rev-list --left-right A...B
would show ones reachable from A prefixed with '<' and the ones
reachable from B prefixed with '>'.
When combined with --boundary, boundary commits (the ones marked
with 'x' in the above picture) are shown with prefix '-', so you
would see list that looks like this:
git rev-list --left-right --boundary --pretty=oneline A...B
>bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb 3rd on b
>bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb 2nd on b
