Use the standard "goto out" pattern rather than repeating very similar
code after checking for each error. This will simplify the next commit
that starts handling allocation failures that are currently ignored.
On error xdl_do_diff() frees the environment so we need to take care
to avoid a double free in that case. xdl_build_script() does not
assign a result unless it is successful so there is no possibility of
a double free if it fails.

Although the patience and histogram algorithms initialize the
environment they do not free it if there is an error. In contrast for
the Myers algorithm the environment is initalized in xdl_do_diff() and
it is freed if there is an error. Fix this by always initializing the
environment in xdl_do_diff() and freeing it there if there is an
error. Remove the comment in do_patience_diff() about the environment
being freed by xdl_diff() as it is not accurate because (a) xdl_diff()
does not do that if there is an error and (b) xdl_diff() is not the
only caller.

"diff --histogram" optimization.
* pw/xdiff-classify-record-in-histogram:
xdiff: drop unused flags parameter from recs_match
xdiff: drop xpparam_t parameter from histogram cmp_recs()
xdiff: drop CMP_ENV macro from xhistogram
xdiff: simplify comparison

diff histogram: intern strings

Since 6b13bc3232 (xdiff: simplify comparison, 2021-11-17), we do not
call xdl_recmatch() from xdiffi.c's recs_match(), so we no longer need
the "flags" parameter. That in turn lets us drop the flags parameters
from the group-slide functions which call it.
There's no functional change here; it's just making these functions a
little simpler.

Since 663c5ad035 (diff histogram: intern strings, 2021-11-17), our
cmp_recs() does not call xdl_recmatch(), and thus no longer needs an
xpparam_t struct from which to get the flags. We can drop the unused
parameter from the function, as well as the macro which wraps it.
There's no functional change here; it's just simplifying things (and
making -Wunused-parameter happier).

This macro has been unused since 43ca7530df (xdiff/xhistogram: rely on

there, and its use in the CMP() macro was inlined. It probably should

"zdiff3" is identical to ordinary diff3 except that it allows compaction
of common lines on the two sides of history at the beginning or end of
the conflict hunk. For example, the following diff3 conflict:
1
2
3
4
<<<<<<
A
B
C
D
E
||||||
5
6
======
A
X
C
Y
E
>>>>>>
7
8
9
has common lines 'A', 'C', and 'E' on the two sides. With zdiff3, one
would instead get the following conflict:
1
2
3
4
A
<<<<<<
B
C
D
||||||
5
6
======
X
C
Y
>>>>>>
E
7
8
9
Note that the common lines, 'A', and 'E' were moved outside the
conflict. Unlike with the two-way conflicts from the 'merge'
conflictStyle, the zdiff3 conflict is NOT split into multiple conflict
regions to allow the common 'C' lines to be shown outside a conflict,
because zdiff3 shows the base version too and the base version cannot be
reasonably split.
Note also that the removing of lines common to the two sides might make
the remaining text inside the conflict region match the base text inside
the conflict region (for example, if the diff3 conflict had '5 6 E' on
the right side of the conflict, then the common line 'E' would be moved
outside and both the base and right side's remaining conflict text would
be the lines '5' and '6'). This has the potential to surprise users and
make them think there should not have been a conflict, but there
definitely was a conflict and it should remain.

Now that the histogram algorithm calls xdl_classify_record() it is no
longer necessary to use xdl_recmatch() to compare lines, it is
sufficient just to compare the hash values. This has a negligible

Histogram is the only diff algorithm not to call
xdl_classify_record(). xdl_classify_record() ensures that the hash
values of two strings that are not equal differ which means that it is
not necessary to use xdl_recmatch() when comparing lines, all that is
necessary is to compare the hash values. This gives a 7% reduction in
the runtime of "git log --patch" when using the histogram diff
algorithm.

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.

xdl_prepare_env() calls xdl_classify_record() which arranges for the
hashes of non-matching lines to be different so lines can be tested
for equality by comparing just their hashes.

v2.29.0 by ~3-4%.

Add a new diff option that enables ignoring changes whose all lines
(changed, removed, and added) match a given regular expression. This is
similar to the -I/--ignore-matching-lines option in standalone diff
utilities and can be used e.g. to ignore changes which only affect code
comments or to look for unrelated changes in commits containing a large
number of automatically applied modifications (e.g. a tree-wide string
replacement). The difference between -G/-S and the new -I option is
that the latter filters output on a per-change basis.
Use the 'ignore' field of xdchange_t for marking a change as ignored or
not. Since the same field is used by --ignore-blank-lines, identical
hunk emitting rules apply for --ignore-blank-lines and -I. These two
options can also be used together in the same git invocation (they are
complementary to each other).
Rename xdl_mark_ignorable() to xdl_mark_ignorable_lines(), to indicate
that it is logically a "sibling" of xdl_mark_ignorable_regex() rather
than its "parent".

The "diff" machinery learned not to lose added/removed blank lines
in the context when --ignore-blank-lines and --function-context are
used at the same time.
* rs/xdiff-ignore-ws-w-func-context:
xdiff: unignore changes in function context
|
|
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.

Most of xdiff uses a bare malloc() to allocate memory, and returns an
error when we get NULL. However, there are a few spots which don't check
the return value and may segfault, including at least xdl_merge() and
xpatience.c's find_longest_common_sequence().
Let's use xmalloc() everywhere instead, so that we get a graceful die()
for these cases, without having to do further auditing. This does mean
the existing cases which check errors will now die() instead of
returning an error up the stack. But:
- that's how the rest of Git behaves already for malloc errors
- all of the callers of xdi_diff(), etc, die upon seeing an error
So while we might one day want to fully lib-ify the diff code and make
it possible to use as part of a long-running process, we're not close to
that now. And because we're just tweaking the xdl_malloc() macro here,
we're not really moving ourselves any further away from that. We
could, for example, simplify some of the functions which handle malloc()
errors which can no longer occur. But that would probably be taking us
in the wrong direction.
This also makes our malloc handling more consistent with the rest of
Git, including enforcing GIT_ALLOC_LIMIT and trying to reclaim pack
memory when needed.

Since the xdiff library was not originally part of Git, it does its own
system includes. Let's instead use git-compat-util, which has two
benefits:
1. It adjusts for any system-specific quirks in how or what we should
include (though xdiff's needs are light enough that this hasn't
been a problem in the past).
2. It lets us use wrapper functions like xmalloc().

The xdiff library always emits hunk header lines to our callbacks as
formatted strings like "@@ -a,b +c,d @@\n". This is convenient if we're
going to output a diff, but less so if we actually need to compute using
those numbers, which requires re-parsing the line.
In preparation for moving away from this, let's teach xdiff a new
callback function which gets the broken-out hunk information. To help
callers that don't want to use this new callback, if it's NULL we'll
continue to format the hunk header into a string.
Note that this function renames the "outf" callback to "out_line", as
well. This isn't strictly necessary, but helps in two ways:
1. Now that there are two callbacks, it's nice to use more descriptive
names.
2. Many callers did not zero the emit_callback_data struct, and needed
to be modified to set ecb.out_hunk to NULL. By changing the name of
the existing struct member, that guarantees that any new callers
from in-flight topics will break the build and be examined
manually.

Skip searching for better indentation heuristics if we'd slide a hunk more
than its size. This is the easiest fix proposed in the analysis[1] in
response to a patch that mercurial took for xdiff to limit searching
by a constant. Using a performance test as:
#!python
open('a', 'w').write(" \n" * 1000000)
open('b', 'w').write(" \n" * 1000001)
This patch reduces the execution of "git diff --no-index a b" from
0.70s to 0.31s. However limiting the sliding to the size of the diff hunk,
which was proposed as a solution (that I found easiest to implement for
now) is not optimal for cases like
open('a', 'w').write(" \n" * 1000000)
open('b', 'w').write(" \n" * 2000000)
as then we'd still slide 1000000 times.
In addition to limiting the sliding to size of the hunk, also limit by a
constant. Choose 100 lines as the constant as that fits more than a screen,
which really means that the diff sliding is probably not providing a lot
of benefit anyway.

This fixes a memory issue when recursing a lot, which can be reproduced as
seq 1 100000 >one
seq 1 4 100000 >two
git diff --no-index --histogram one two
Before this patch, histogram_diff would call itself recursively before
calling free_index, which would mean a lot of memory is allocated during
the recursion and only freed afterwards. By moving the memory allocation
(and its free call) into find_lcs, the memory is free'd before we recurse,
such that memory is reused in the next step of the recursion instead of
using new memory.
This addresses only the memory pressure, not the run time complexity,
that is also awful for the corner case outlined above.
Helpful in understanding the code (in addition to the sparse history of
this file), was https://stackoverflow.com/a/32367597 which reproduces

to extend a pre-context beyond the line that matches the "function
pattern" (aka "diff.*.xfuncname") to include a comment block, if
exists, that immediately precedes it.
* rs/include-comments-before-the-function-header:
grep: show non-empty lines before functions with -W
grep: update boundary variable for pre-context
t7810: improve check of -W with user-defined function lines
xdiff: show non-empty lines before functions with -W
xdiff: factor out is_func_rec()
t4051: add test for comments preceding function lines

Teach diff a new algorithm, one that attempts to prevent user-specified
lines from appearing as a deletion or addition in the end result. The
end user can use this by specifying "--anchored=<text>" one or more
times when using Git commands like "diff" and "show".

The "diff" family of commands learned to ignore differences in
carriage return at the end of line.
* jc/ignore-cr-at-eol:
diff: --ignore-cr-at-eol
xdiff: reassign xpparm_t.flags bits

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.

Add a helper for checking if a given record is a function line. It
frees callers from having to deal with the buffer arguments of
match_func_rec().

The mailing address for the FSF has changed over the years. Rather than
updating the address across all files, refer readers to gnu.org, as the
GNU GPL documentation now suggests for license notices. The mailing
address is retained in the full license files (COPYING and LGPL-2.1).
The old address is still present in t/diff-lib/COPYING. This is
intentional, as the file is used in tests and the contents are not
expected to change.

A new option --ignore-cr-at-eol tells the diff machinery to treat a
carriage-return at the end of a (complete) line as if it does not
exist.
Just like other "--ignore-*" options to ignore various kinds of
whitespace differences, this will help reviewing the real changes
you made without getting distracted by spurious CRLF<->LF conversion
made by your editor program.
