2011-07-12xdiff/xprepare: use a smaller sample size for histogram diffLibravatar Tay Ray Chuan3-10/+17
For histogram diff, we can afford a smaller sample size and thus a poorer estimate of the number of lines, as the hash table (rhash) won't be filled up/grown. This is safe as the final count of lines (xdf.nrecs) will be updated correctly anyway by xdl_prepare_ctx(). This gives us a small boost in performance.

2011-07-12xdiff/xprepare: skip classificationLibravatar Tay Ray Chuan1-8/+16
xdiff performs "classification" of records (xdl_classify_record()), replacing hashes (xrecord_t.ha) with a unique identifier of the record/line and building a hash table (xrecord_t.rhash) of records. This is then used to "cleanup" records (xdl_cleanup_records()). We don't need any of that in histogram diff, so we omit calls to these functions. We also skip allocating memory to the hash table, rhash, as it is no longer used. This gives us a small boost in performance.

Port JGit's HistogramDiff algorithm over to C. Rough numbers (TODO) show that it is faster than its --patience cousin, as well as the default Meyers algorithm. The implementation has been reworked to use structs and pointers, instead of bitmasks, thus doing away with JGit's 2^28 line limit. We also use xdiff's default hash table implementation (xdl_hash_bits() with XDL_HASHLONG()) for convenience.

2010-10-06xdiff: cast arguments for ctype functions to unsigned charLibravatar Jonathan Nieder3-10/+11
The ctype functions isspace(), isalnum(), et al take an integer argument representing an unsigned character, or -1 for EOF. On platforms with a signed char, it is unsafe to pass a char to them without casting it to unsigned char first. Most of git is already shielded against this by the ctype implementation in git-compat-util.h, but xdiff, which uses libc ctype.h, ought to be fixed.

If the file does not contain any function names, this search has complexity O(n^2) in the number of hunks n.

2010-07-05xdiff: optimise for no whitespace difference when ignoring whitespace.Libravatar Dylan Reid1-1/+3
In xdl_recmatch, do the memcmp to check if the two lines are equal before checking if whitespace flags are set. If the lines are identical, then there is no need to check if they differ only in whitespace. This makes the common case (there is no whitespace difference) faster. It costs the case where lines are the same length and contain whitespace differences, but the common case is more than 20% faster.

2010-03-20xdl_merge(): move file1 and file2 labels to xmparam structureLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-10/+14
The labels for the three participants in a potential conflict are all optional arguments for the xdiff merge routine; if they are NULL, then xdl_merge() can cope by omitting the labels from its output. Move them to the xmparam structure to allow new callers to save some keystrokes where they are not needed. This also has the virtue of making the xdiff merge interface more similar to merge_trees, which might make it easier to learn.

2010-03-20xdl_merge(): add optional ancestor label to diff3-style outputLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-2/+15
The ‘git checkout --conflict=diff3’ command can be used to present conflicts hunks including text from the common ancestor: <<<<<<< ours ourside ||||||| original ======= theirside >>>>>>> theirs The added information is helpful for resolving merges by hand, and merge tools can usually grok it because it is very similar to the output from diff3 -m. A subtle change can help more tools to understand the output. ‘diff3’ includes the name of the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output, and some tools misparse the conflict hunks without it. Add a new xmp->ancestor parameter to xdl_merge() for use with conflict style XDL_MERGE_DIFF3 as a label on the ||||||| line for any conflict hunks. If xmp->ancestor is NULL, the output format is unchanged. Thus, this change only provides unexposed plumbing for the new feature; it does not affect the outward behavior of git.

2009-11-29git-merge-file --ours, --theirsLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-3/+14
Sometimes people want their conflicting merges autoresolved by favouring upstream changes. The standard answer they are given is to run "git diff --name-only | xargs git checkout MERGE_HEAD --" in such a case. This is to accept automerge results for the paths that are fully resolved automatically, while taking their version of the file in full for paths that have conflicts. This is problematic on two counts. One is that this is not exactly what these people want. It discards all changes they did on their branch for any paths that conflicted. They usually want to salvage as much automerge result as possible in a conflicted file, and want to take the upstream change only in the conflicted part. This patch teaches two new modes of operation to the lowest-lever merge machinery, xdl_merge(). Instead of leaving the conflicted lines from both sides enclosed in <<<, ===, and >>> markers, the conflicts are resolved favouring our side or their side of changes. A larger problem is that this tends to encourage a bad workflow by allowing people to record such a mixed up half-merged result as a full commit without auditing. This commit does not tackle this issue at all. In git, we usually give long enough rope to users with strange wishes as long as the risky features are not enabled by default, and this is such a risky feature.

2009-08-23xutils: Fix xdl_recmatch() on incomplete linesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-31/+49
Thell Fowler noticed that various "ignore whitespace" options to git diff do not work well on an incomplete line. The loop control of the function responsible for these bugs was extremely difficult to follow. This patch restructures the loops for three variants of "ignore whitespace" logic. The basic idea of the re-written logic is: - A loop runs while the characters from both strings we are looking at match. We declare unmatch immediately when we find something that does not match and return false from the function. We break out of the loop if we ran out of either side of the string. The way we skip spaces inside this loop varies depending on the style of ignoring whitespaces. - After the above loop breaks, we know that the parts of the strings we inspected so far match, ignoring the whitespaces. The lines can match only if the remainder consists of nothing but whitespaces. This part of the logic is shared across all three styles. The new code is more obvious and should be much easier to follow. Tested-by: Thell Fowler <git@tbfowler.name> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-08-23xutils: Fix hashing an incomplete line with whitespaces at the endLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
Upon seeing a whitespace, xdl_hash_record_with_whitespace() first skipped the run of whitespaces (excluding LF) that begins there, ensuring that the pointer points at the last whitespace character in the run, and assumed that the next character must be LF at the end of the line. This does not work when hashing an incomplete line, which lacks the LF at the end. Introduce "at_eol" variable that is true when either we are at the end of line (looking at LF) or at the end of an incomplete line, and use that instead throughout the code. Noticed by Thell Fowler.

2009-01-07Implement the patience diff algorithmLibravatar Johannes Schindelin5-1/+389
The patience diff algorithm produces slightly more intuitive output than the classic Myers algorithm, as it does not try to minimize the number of +/- lines first, but tries to preserve the lines that are unique. To this end, it first determines lines that are unique in both files, then the maximal sequence which preserves the order (relative to both files) is extracted. Starting from this initial set of common lines, the rest of the lines is handled recursively, with Myers' algorithm as a fallback when the patience algorithm fails (due to no common unique lines).

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.

2008-08-30xmerge.c: "diff3 -m" style clips merge reduction level to EAGER or lessLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+9
When showing a conflicting merge result, and "--diff3 -m" style is asked for, this patch makes sure that the merge reduction level does not exceed XDL_MERGE_EAGER. This is because "diff3 -m" style output would not make sense for anything more aggressive than XDL_MERGE_EAGER, because of the way how the merge reduction works. "git merge-file" no longer has to force MERGE_EAGER when "--diff3" is asked for because of this change. Suppose a common ancestor (shared preimage) is modified to postimage #1 and #2 (each letter represents one line): ##### postimage#1: 1234ABCDE789 | / | / preimage: 123456789 | \ postimage#2: 1234AXYE789 #### XDL_MERGE_MINIMAL and XDL_MERGE_EAGER would: (1) find the s/56/ABCDE/ done on one side and s/56/AXYE/ done on the other side, (2) notice that they touch an overlapping area, and (3) mark it as a conflict, "ABCDE vs AXYE". The difference between the two algorithms is that EAGER drops the hunk altogether if the postimages match (i.e. both sides modified the same way), while MINIMAL keeps it. There is no other operation performed to the hunk. As the result, lines marked with "#" in the above picure will be in the RCS merge style output like this (letters <, = and > represent conflict marker lines): output: 1234<ABCDE=AXYE>789 ; with MINIMAL/EAGER The part from the preimage that corresponds to these conflicting changes is "56", which is what "diff3 -m" style output adds to it: output: 1234<ABCDE|56=AXYE>789 ; in "diff3 -m" style Now, XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS looks at the differences between the changes two postimages made in order to reduce the number of lines in the conflicting regions. It notices that both sides start their new contents with "A", and excludes it from the output (it also excludes "E" for the same reason). The conflict that used to be "ABCDE vs AXYE" is now "BCD vs XY": output: 1234A<BCD=XY>E789 ; with ZEALOUS There could even be matching parts between two postimages in the middle. Instead of one side rewriting the shared "56" to "ABCDE" and the other side to "AXYE", imagine the case where the postimages are "ABCDE" and "AXCYE", in which case instead of having one conflicted hunk "BCD vs XY", you would have two conflicting hunks "B vs X" and "D vs Y". In either case, once you reduce "ABCDE vs AXYE" to "BCD vs XY" (or "ABCDE vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs Y"), there is no part from the preimage that corresponds to the conflicting change made in both postimages anymore. In other words, conflict reduced by ZEALOUS algorithm cannot be expressed in "diff3 -m" style. Representing the last illustration like this is misleading to say the least: output: 1234A<BCD|56=XY>E789 ; broken "diff3 -m" style because the preimage was not ...4A56E... to begin with. "A" and "E" are common only between the postimages. Even worse, once a single conflicting hunk is split into multiple ones (recall the example of breaking "ABCDE vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs Y"), there is no sane way to distribute the preimage text across split conflicting hunks.

With XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS_ALNUM, we use the following heuristics: when a hunk does not contain any letters or digits, it is treated as conflicting. In other words, a conflict which used to look like this: <<<<<<< a = 1; ======= output(); >>>>>>> } } } <<<<<<< output(); ======= b = 1; >>>>>>> will look like this with ZEALOUS_ALNUM: <<<<<<< a = 1; } } } output(); ======= output(); } } } b = 1; >>>>>>> To demonstrate this, git-merge-file has been switched from XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS to XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS_ALNUM.

This patch merges up to three common lines into the conflicts. For example, what looked like this before this patch: <<<<<<< if (a == 1) ======= if (a != 0) >>>>>>> { int i; <<<<<<< a = 0; ======= a = !a; >>>>>>> will now look like this: <<<<<<< if (a == 1) { int i; a = 0; ======= if (a != 0) { int i; a = !a; >>>>>>> Suggested Linus (based on ideas by "Voltage Spike" -- if that name is real, it is mighty cool).
