Remove the dummy discard_hunk_line() function added in
3b40a090fd4 (diff: avoid generating unused hunk header lines,
2018-11-02) in favor of having a new XDL_EMIT_NO_HUNK_HDR flag, for
use along with the two existing and similar XDL_EMIT_* flags.
Unlike the recently amended xdiff_emit_line_fn interface which'll be
called in a loop in xdl_emit_diff(), the hunk header is only emitted
once.
It makes more sense to pass this as a flag than provide a dummy
callback because that function may be able to skip doing certain work
if it knows the caller is doing nothing with the hunk header.
It would be possible to do so in the case of -U0 now, but the benefit
of doing so is so small that I haven't bothered. But this leaves the
door open to that, and more importantly makes the API use more
intuitive.
The reason we're putting a flag in the gap between 1<<0 and 1<<2 is
that the old 1<<1 flag was removed in 907681e940d (xdiff: drop
XDL_EMIT_COMMON, 2016-02-23) without re-ordering the remaining flags.

Changes involving only blank lines are hidden with --ignore-blank-lines,
unless they appear in the context lines of other changes. This is
handled by xdl_get_hunk() for context added by --inter-hunk-context, -u
and -U.
Function context for -W and --function-context added by xdl_emit_diff()
doesn't pay attention to such ignored changes; it relies fully on
xdl_get_hunk() and shows just the post-image of ignored changes
appearing in function context. That's inconsistent and confusing.
Improve the result of using --ignore-blank-lines and --function-context
together by fully showing ignored changes if they happen to fall within
function context.

After finding a function line for --function-context in the pre-image,
xdl_emit_diff() calculates the equivalent line in the post-image. It
assumes that the lines between changes are the same on both sides. If
the option --ignore-blank-lines was also given then this is not
necessarily true.
Clamp the calculation results for start and end of the function context
to prevent out-of-bounds array accesses.
Note that this _just_ fixes the case where our mismatch sends us off the
beginning of the file. There are likely other cases where our assumption
causes us to go to the wrong line within the file. Nobody has developed
a test case yet, and the ultimate fix is likely more complicated than
this patch. But this at least prevents a segfault in the meantime.
Credit for finding the bug goes to "Liu Wei of Tencent Security Xuanwu
Lab".

Non-empty lines before a function definition are most likely comments
for that function and thus relevant. Include them in function context.
Such a non-empty line might also belong to the preceeding function if
there is no separating blank line. Stop extending the context upwards
also at the next function line to make sure only one extra function body
is shown at most.

When adding a new function to the end of a file, it's enough to know
that 1) the addition is at the end of the file; and 2) there is a
function _somewhere_ in there.
If we had simply been changing the end of an existing function, then we
would also be deleting something from the old version.
This fixes the case where we add e.g.
// Begin of dummy
static int dummy(void)
{
}
to the end of the file.

"git diff -W" output needs to extend the context backward to
include the header line of the current function and also forward to
include the body of the entire current function up to the header
line of the next one. This process may have to merge to adjacent
hunks, but the code forgot to do so in some cases.

xdiff: fix merging of hunks with -W context and -u context
|

If the function context for a hunk (with -W) reaches the beginning of
the next hunk then we need to merge these two -- otherwise we'd show
some lines twice, which looks strange and even confuses git apply. We
already do this checking and merging in xdl_emit_diff(), but forget to
consider regular context (with -u or -U).
Fix that by merging hunks already if function context of the first one
touches or overlaps regular context of the second one.

When -W is given we search the lines between the end of the current
context and the next change for a function line. If there is none then
we merge those two hunks as they must be part of the same function.
If the next change is an appended chunk we abort the search early in
get_func_line(), however, because its line number is out of range. Fix
that by searching from the end of the pre-image in that case instead.

Empty lines between functions are shown by diff -W, as it considers them
to be part of the function preceding them. They are not interesting in
most languages. The previous patch stopped showing them in the special
case of a function added at the end of a file.

If a new function and a preceding empty line is appended, diff -W shows
the previous function in full in order to provide context for that empty
line. In most languages empty lines between sections are not
interesting in and off themselves and showing a whole extra function for
them is not what we want.
Skip empty lines when checking of the appended chunk starts with a
function line, thereby avoiding to extend the context just for them.

If lines are added at the end of a file, diff -W shows the whole file.
That's because get_func_line() only considers the pre-image and gives up
if it sees a record index beyond its end.
Consider the post-image as well to see if the added lines already make
up a full function. If it doesn't then search for the previous function
line by starting from the bottom of the pre-image, thereby avoiding to
confuse get_func_line().
Reuse the existing label called "again", as it's exactly where we need
to jump to when we're done handling the pre-context, but rename it to
"post_context_calculation" in order to document its new purpose better.

Correct all hits from
git grep -e '\(&&\|||\)[^ ]' -e '[^ ]\(&&\|||\)' -- '*.c'
i.e. && or || operators that are followed by anything but a SP,
or that follow something other than a SP or a HT, so that these
operators have a SP around it when necessary.
We usually refrain from making this kind of a tree-wide change in
order to avoid unnecessary conflicts with other "real work" patches,
but in this case, the end result does not have a potentially
cumbersome tree-wide impact, while this is a tree-wide cleanup.
Fixes to compat/regex/regcomp.c and xdiff/xemit.c are to replace a
HT immediately after && with a SP.
This is based on Felipe's patch to bultin/symbolic-ref.c; I did all
the finding out what other files in the whole tree need to be fixed
and did the fix and also the log message while reviewing that single
liner, so any screw-ups in this version are mine.

The goal of the patch is to introduce the GNU diff
-B/--ignore-blank-lines as closely as possible. The short option is not
available because it's already used for "break-rewrites".
When this option is used, git-diff will not create hunks that simply
add or remove empty lines, but will still show empty lines
addition/suppression if they are close enough to "valuable" changes.
There are two differences between this option and GNU diff -B option:
- GNU diff doesn't have "--inter-hunk-context", so this must be handled
- The following sequence looks like a bug (context is displayed twice):
$ seq 5 >file1
$ cat <<EOF >file2
change
1
2
3
4
5
change
EOF
$ diff -u -B file1 file2
--- file1 2013-06-08 22:13:04.471517834 +0200
+++ file2 2013-06-08 22:13:23.275517855 +0200
@@ -1,5 +1,7 @@
+change
1
2
+
3
4
5
@@ -3,3 +5,4 @@
3
4
5
+change
So here is a more thorough description of the option:
- real changes are interesting
- blank lines that are close enough (less than context size) to
interesting changes are considered interesting (recursive definition)
- "context" lines are used around each hunk of interesting changes
- If two hunks are separated by less than "inter-hunk-context", they
will be merged into one.
The implementation does the "interesting changes selection" in a single
pass.

* rs/diff-postimage-in-context:
xdiff: print post-image for common records instead of pre-image
|
|
Normally it doesn't matter if we show the pre-image or th post-image
for the common parts of a diff because they are the same. If
white-space changes are ignored they can differ, though. The
new text after applying the diff is more interesting in that case,
so show that instead of the old contents.
Note: GNU diff shows the pre-image.

Add the option -W/--function-context to git diff. It is similar to
the same option of git grep and expands the context of change hunks
so that the whole surrounding function is shown. This "natural"
context can allow changes to be understood better.
Note: GNU patch doesn't like diffs generated with the new option;
it seems to expect context lines to be the same before and after
changes. git apply doesn't complain.
This implementation has the same shortcoming as the one in grep,
namely that there is no way to explicitly find the end of a
function. That means that a few lines of extra context are shown,
right up to the next recognized function begins. It's already
useful in its current form, though.
The function get_func_line() in xdiff/xemit.c is extended to work
forward as well as backward to find post-context as well as
pre-context. It returns the position of the first found matching
line. The func_line parameter is made optional, as we don't need
it for -W.
The enhanced function is then used in xdl_emit_diff() to extend
the context as needed. If the added context overlaps with the
next change, it is merged into the current hunk.

For each hunk, xdl_find_func searches the preimage for a function name
until the beginning of the file. If the file does not contain any
function names, this search has complexity O(n^2) in the number of
hunks n.
Instead, inline xdl_find_func() and keep track of up to which line we
have scanned already and the contents of the last funcname line that
we have found.
Noticed and a different approach proposed by Clemens Buchacher.
This alternative solution was done by René Scharfe.

Merge two hunks if there is only the specified number of otherwise unshown
context between them. For --inter-hunk-context=1, the resulting patch has
the same number of lines but shows uninterrupted context instead of a
context header line in between.
Patches generated with this option are easier to read but are also more
likely to conflict if the file to be patched contains other changes.
This patch keeps the default for this option at 0. It is intended to just
make the feature available in order to see its advantages and downsides.

For some users (e.g. git blame), getting textual patch output is just
extra work, as they can get all the information they need from the low-
level diff structures. Allow for an alternate low-level emit function
to be defined to allow bypassing the textual patch generation; set
xemitconf_t's emit_func member to enable this.
The (void (*)()) type is pretty ugly, but the alternative would be to
include most of the private xdiff headers in xdiff.h to get the types
required for the "proper" function prototype. Also, a (void *) won't
work, as ANSI C doesn't allow a function pointer to be cast to an
object pointer.

This makes"diff -p" hunk headers customizable via gitattributes mechanism.
It is based on Johannes's earlier patch that allowed to define a single
regexp to be used for everything.
The mechanism to arrive at the regexp that is used to define hunk header
is the same as other use of gitattributes. You assign an attribute, funcname
(because "diff -p" typically uses the name of the function the patch is about
as the hunk header), a simple string value. This can be one of the names of
built-in pattern (currently, "java" is defined) or a custom pattern name, to
be looked up from the configuration file.
(in .gitattributes)
*.java funcname=java
*.perl funcname=perl
(in .git/config)
[funcname]
java = ... # ugly and complicated regexp to override the built-in one.
perl = ... # another ugly and complicated regexp to define a new one.

In xemit.c:xdl_emit_diff() a buffer for showing the function name as
commentary is allocated; this buffer was 40 characters. This is a bit
small; particularly for C++ function names where there is often an
identical prefix (like void LongNamespace::LongClassName) on multiple
functions, which makes the context the same everywhere. In other words
the context is useless. This patch increases that buffer to 80
characters - which may still not be enough, but is better

This fairly trivial patch adds a new XDL_EMIT_xxx flag to tell libxdiff
that we don't want to generate the _diff_ between two files, we want to
see the lines that are _common_ to two files.
So when you set XDL_EMIT_COMMON, xdl_diff() will do everything exactly
like it used to do, but the output records it generates just contain the
lines that aren't part of the diff.
This is for doing things like generating the common base case for a file
that was added in both branches.

The speed of the built-in diff generator is nice; but the function names
shown by `diff -p' are /really/ nice. And I hate having to choose. So,
we hack xdiff to find the function names and print them.
xdiff has grown a flag to say whether to dig up the function names. The
builtin_diff function passes this flag unconditionally. I suppose it
could parse GIT_DIFF_OPTS, but it doesn't at the moment. I've also
reintroduced the `function name' into the test suite, from which it was
removed in commit 3ce8f089.
The function names are parsed by a particularly stupid algorithm at the
moment: it just tries to find a line in the `old' file, from before the
start of the hunk, whose first character looks plausible. Still, it's
most definitely a start.

This uses a simplified libxdiff setup to generate unified diffs _without_
doing fork/execve of GNU "diff".
This has several huge advantages, for example:
Before:
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ time git diff v2.6.16.. > /dev/null
real 0m24.818s
user 0m13.332s
sys 0m8.664s
After:
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ time git diff v2.6.16.. > /dev/null
real 0m4.563s
user 0m2.944s
sys 0m1.580s
and the fact that this should be a lot more portable (ie we can ignore all
the issues with doing fork/execve under Windows).
Perhaps even more importantly, this allows us to do diffs without actually
ever writing out the git file contents to a temporary file (and without
any of the shell quoting issues on filenames etc etc).
NOTE! THIS PATCH DOES NOT DO THAT OPTIMIZATION YET! I was lazy, and the
current "diff-core" code actually will always write the temp-files,
because it used to be something that you simply had to do. So this current
one actually writes a temp-file like before, and then reads it into memory
again just to do the diff. Stupid.
But if this basic infrastructure is accepted, we can start switching over
diff-core to not write temp-files, which should speed things up even
further, especially when doing big tree-to-tree diffs.
Now, in the interest of full disclosure, I should also point out a few
downsides:
- the libxdiff algorithm is different, and I bet GNU diff has gotten a
lot more testing. And the thing is, generating a diff is not an exact
science - you can get two different diffs (and you will), and they can
both be perfectly valid. So it's not possible to "validate" the
libxdiff output by just comparing it against GNU diff.
- GNU diff does some nice eye-candy, like trying to figure out what the
last function was, and adding that information to the "@@ .." line.
libxdiff doesn't do that.
- The libxdiff thing has some known deficiencies. In particular, it gets
the "\No newline at end of file" case wrong. So this is currently for
the experimental branch only. I hope Davide will help fix it.
That said, I think the huge performance advantage, and the fact that it
integrates better is definitely worth it. But it should go into a
development branch at least due to the missing newline issue.
Technical note: this is based on libxdiff-0.17, but I did some surgery to
get rid of the extraneous fat - stuff that git doesn't need, and seriously
cutting down on mmfile_t, which had much more capabilities than the diff
algorithm either needed or used. In this version, "mmfile_t" is just a
trivial <pointer,length> tuple.
That said, I tried to keep the differences to simple removals, so that you
can do a diff between this and the libxdiff origin, and you'll basically
see just things getting deleted. Even the mmfile_t simplifications are
left in a state where the diffs should be readable.
Apologies to Davide, whom I'd love to get feedback on this all from (I
wrote my own "fill_mmfile()" for the new simpler mmfile_t format: the old
complex format had a helper function for that, but I did my surgery with
the goal in mind that eventually we _should_ just do
mmfile_t mf;
buf = read_sha1_file(sha1, type, &size);
mf->ptr = buf;
mf->size = size;
.. use "mf" directly ..
which was really a nightmare with the old "helpful" mmfile_t, and really
is that easy with the new cut-down interfaces).
[ Btw, as any hawk-eye can see from the diff, this was actually generated
with itself, so it is "self-hosting". That's about all the testing it
has gotten, along with the above kernel diff, which eye-balls correctly,
but shows the newline issue when you double-check it with "git-apply" ]
