2021-11-01leak tests: mark some diff tests as passing with SANITIZE=leakLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+2
Mark some tests that match "*diff*" as passing when git is compiled with SANITIZE=leak. They'll now be listed as running under the "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" test mode (the "linux-leaks" CI target).

2017-05-24diff: use blob path for blob/file diffsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+6
When we diff a blob against a working tree file like: git diff HEAD:Makefile Makefile we always use the working tree filename for both sides of the diff. In most cases that's fine, as the two would be the same anyway, as above. And until recently, we used the "name" for the blob, not the path, which would have the messy "HEAD:" on the beginning. But when they don't match, like: git diff HEAD:old_path new_path it makes sense to show both names. This patch uses the blob's path field if it's available, and otherwise falls back to using the filename (in preference to the blob's name, which is likely to be garbage like a raw sha1).

2017-05-24diff: use pending "path" if it is availableLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
There's a subtle distinction between "name" and "path" for a blob that we resolve: the name is what the user told us on the command line, and the path is what we traversed when finding the blob within a tree (if we did so). When we diff blobs directly, we use "name", but "path" is more likely to be useful to the user (it will find the correct .gitattributes, and give them a saner diff header). We still have to fall back to using the name for some cases (i.e., any blob reference that isn't of the form tree:path). That's the best we can do in such a case.

2017-05-24handle_revision_arg: record modes for "a..b" endpointsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The "a..b" revision syntax was designed to handle commits, so it doesn't bother to record any mode we find while traversing a "tree:path" endpoint. These days "git diff" can diff blobs using either "a:path..b:path" (with dots) or "a:path b:path" (without), but the two behave inconsistently, as the with-dots version fails to notice the mode. Let's teach the dot-dot range parser to record modes; it doesn't cost us anything, and it makes this case work.

2017-05-24t4063: add tests of direct blob diffsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+91
The git-diff command can directly compare two blobs (or a blob and a file), but we don't test this at all. Let's add some basic tests that reveal a few problems. There are basically four interesting inputs: 1. sha1 against sha1 (where diff has no information beyond the contents) 2. tree:path against tree:path (where it can get information via get_sha1_with_context) 3. Same as (2), but using the ".." range syntax 4. tree:path against a filename And beyond generating a sane diff, we care about a few little bits: which paths they show in the diff header, and whether they correctly pick up a mode change. They should all be able to show a mode except for (1), though note that case (3) is currently broken. For the headers, we would ideally show the path within the tree if we have it, making: git diff a:path b:path look the same as: git diff a b -- path We can't always do that (e.g., in the direct sha1/sha1 diff, we have no path to show), in which case we should fall back to the name that resolved to the blob (which is nonsense from the repository's perspective, but is the best we can do). Aside from the fallback case in (1), none of the cases get this right. Cases (2) and (3) always show the full tree:path, even though we should be able to know just the "path" portion. Case (4) picks up the filename path, but assigns it to _both_ sides of the diff. So this works for: git diff tree:path path but not for: git diff tree:other_path path The appropriate tests are marked to expect failure.
