* diff --abbrev=<n> option fix.Junio C Hamano2006-01-28
| | | | | | | | Earier specifying an abbreviation shorter than minimum fell back to full 40 letters, which was nonsense. Make it to fall back to the minimum number (currently 4). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* abbrev cleanup: use symbolic constantsJunio C Hamano2006-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | The minimum length of abbreviated object name was hardcoded in different places to be 4, risking inconsistencies in the future. Also there were three different "default abbreviation precision". Use two C preprocessor symbols to clean up this mess. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Handle symlinks graciouslyJohannes Schindelin2005-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts a stat() to an lstat() call, thereby fixing the case when the date of a symlink was not the same as the one recorded in the index. The included test case demonstrates this. This is for the case that the symlink points to a non-existing file. If the file exists, worse things than just an error message happen.

* avoid asking ?alloc() for zero bytes.Junio C Hamano2005-12-26
| | | | | | | | Avoid asking for zero bytes when that change simplifies overall logic. Later we would change the wrapper to ask for 1 byte on platforms that return NULL for zero byte request. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* diff: --abbrev optionJunio C Hamano2005-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | When I show transcripts to explain how something works, I often find myself hand-editing the diff-raw output to shorten various object names in the output. This adds --abbrev option to the diff family, which shortens diff-raw output and diff-tree commit id headers. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Move diff.renamelimit out of default configuration.Junio C Hamano2005-11-21

* rename/copy score parsing updates.H. Peter Anvin2005-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Better variant, which handles stuff like "4.5%" and rejects "192.168.0.1". Additionally, make sure numbers are unsigned (I'm making them unsigned long just for the hell of it), to make sure that artificial wraparound scenarios don't cause harm. -hpa [jc: with this, -M100 changes its meaning back to 10%. People wanting to say "pure renames only" should now say -M100% or -M1.0; sounds a bit like an earthquake, but arguably things are more consistent this way ;-)] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* rename detection with -M100 means "exact renames only".Junio C Hamano2005-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | When the user is interested in pure renames, there is no point doing the similarity scores. This changes the score argument parsing to special case -M100 (otherwise, it is a precision scaled value 0 <= v < 1 and would mean 0.1, not 1.0 --- if you do mean 0.1, you can say -M1), and optimizes the diffcore_rename transformation to only look at pure renames in that case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* diff: --full-indexJunio C Hamano2005-11-16
| | | | | | | | | A new option, --full-index, is introduced to diff family. This causes the full object name of pre- and post-images to appear on the index line of patch formatted output, to be used in conjunction with --allow-binary-replacement option of git-apply.

* diff: make default rename detection limit configurable.Junio C Hamano2005-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A while ago, a rename-detection limit logic was implemented as a response to this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=112413080630175 where gitweb was found to be using a lot of time and memory to detect renames on huge commits. git-diff family takes -l<num> flag, and if the number of paths that are rename destination candidates (i.e. new paths with -M, or modified paths with -C) are larger than that number, skips rename/copy detection even when -M or -C is specified on the command line. This commit makes the rename detection limit easier to use. You can have: [diff] renamelimit = 30 in your .git/config file to specify the default rename detection limit. You can override this from the command line; giving 0 means 'unlimited': git diff -M -l0 We might want to change the default behaviour, when you do not have the configuration, to limit it to say 20 paths or so. This would also help the diffstat generation after a big 'git pull'. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Split up tree diff functions into tree-diff.c libraryLinus Torvalds2005-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the tree diff functionality independent of the "git-diff-tree" program, by splitting the core functionality up into a library file. This will be needed for when we teach git-rev-list to only follow a specified set of pathnames, rather than the global revision history. Most of it is a fairly straightforward code move, but it also involves some calling convention cleanup, and moving some of the static variables from diff-tree.c into the options structure. The actual tree change callback routines also become paramterized by the diff_options structure, allowing the library functionality to do something else than just show the diff on stdout. Right now the only user of this functionality remains git-diff-tree itself. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
* Handle "-" at beginning of filenames, part 3Linus Torvalds2005-10-18

* Show original and resulting blob object info in diff output.Junio C Hamano2005-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds more cruft to diff --git header to record the blob SHA1 and the mode the patch/diff is intended to be applied against, to help the receiving end fall back on a three-way merge. The new header looks like this: diff --git a/apply.c b/apply.c index 7be5041..8366082 100644 --- a/apply.c +++ b/apply.c @@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ // files that are being modified, but doesn't apply the patch // --stat does just a diffstat, and doesn't actually apply +// --show-index-info shows the old and new index info for... ... Upon receiving such a patch, if the patch did not apply cleanly to the target tree, the recipient can try to find the matching old objects in her object database and create a temporary tree, apply the patch to that temporary tree, and attempt a 3-way merge between the patched temporary tree and the target tree using the original temporary tree as the common ancestor. The patch lifts the code to compute the hash for an on-filesystem object from update-index.c and makes it available to the diff output routine. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* Plug diff leaks.Junio C Hamano2005-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is a bit embarrassing that it took this long for a fix since the problem was first reported on Aug 13th. Message-ID: <87y876gl1r.wl@mail2.atmark-techno.com> From: Yasushi SHOJI <yashi@atmark-techno.com> Newsgroups: gmane.comp.version-control.git Subject: [patch] possible memory leak in diff.c::diff_free_filepair() Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2005 19:58:56 +0900 This time I used valgrind to make sure that it does not overeagerly discard memory that is still being used.

* Fix copy marking from diffcore-rename.Junio C Hamano2005-09-10
| | | | | | | | | | | When (A,B) ==> (B,C) rename-copy was detected, we incorrectly said that C was created by copying B. This is because we only check if the path of rename/copy source still exists in the resulting tree to see if the file is renamed out of existence. In this case, the new B is created by copying or renaming A, so the original B is lost and we should say C is a rename of B not a copy of B. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] plug memory leak in diff.c::diff_free_filepair()Yasushi SHOJI2005-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I run git-diff-tree on big change, it seems the command eats so much memory. so I just put git under valgrind to see what's going on. diff_free_filespec_data() doesn't free diff_filespec itself. [jc: I ended up doing things slightly differently from Yasushi's patch. The original idea was to use free_filespec_data() only to free the data portion and keep useing the filespec itself, but no existing code seems to do things that way, so I just yanked that part out.] Signed-off-by: Yasushi SHOJI <yashi@atmark-techno.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

* [PATCH] mmap error handlingPavel Roskin2005-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have reviewed all occurrences of mmap() in git and fixed three types of errors/defects: 1) The result is not checked. 2) The file descriptor is closed if mmap() succeeds, but not when it fails. 3) Various casts applied to -1 are used instead of MAP_FAILED, which is specifically defined to check mmap() return value. [jc: This is a second round of Pavel's patch. He fixed up the problem that close() potentially clobbering the errno from mmap, which the first round had.] Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

It also removes the difference between HUMAN and MACHINE formats, and they both become DIFF_FORMAT_RAW, with the difference being just in the line and inter-filename termination. It also makes the code easier to understand.

* [PATCH] Rework -B output.Junio C Hamano2005-06-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch for a completely rewritten file detected by the -B flag was shown as a pair of creation followed by deletion in earlier versions. This was an misguided attempt to make reviewing such a complete rewrite easier, and unnecessarily ended up confusing git-apply. Instead, show the entire contents of old version prefixed with '-', followed by the entire contents of new version prefixed with '+'. This gives the same easy-to-review for human consumer while keeping it a single, regular modification patch for machine consumption, something that even GNU patch can grok.

* [PATCH] Add --diff-filter= output restriction to diff-* family.Junio C Hamano2005-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a halfway between debugging aid and a helper to write an ultra-smart merge scripts. The new option takes a string that consists of a list of "status" letters, and limits the diff output to only those classes of changes, with two exceptions: - A broken pair (aka "complete rewrite"), does not match D (deleted) or N (created). Use B to look for them. - The letter "A" in the diff-filter string does not match anything itself, but causes the entire diff that contains selected patches to be output (this behaviour is similar to that of --pickaxe-all for the -S option). For example, $ git-rev-list HEAD | git-diff-tree --stdin -s -v -B -C --diff-filter=BCR shows a list of commits that have complete rewrite, copy, or rename.

* [PATCH] Fix rename/copy when dealing with temporarily broken pairs.Junio C Hamano2005-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | When rename/copy uses a file that was broken by diffcore-break as the source, and the broken filepair gets merged back later, the output was mislabeled as a rename. In this case, the source file ends up staying in the output, so we should label it as a copy instead. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [PATCH] diff: Update -B heuristics.Junio C Hamano2005-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Linus pointed out on the mailing list discussion, -B should break a files that has many inserts even if it still keeps enough of the original contents, so that the broken pieces can later be matched with other files by -M or -C. However, if such a broken pair does not get picked up by -M or -C, we would want to apply different criteria; namely, regardless of the amount of new material in the result, the determination of "rewrite" should be done by looking at the amount of original material still left in the result. If you still have the original 97 lines from a 100-line document, it does not matter if you add your own 13 lines to make a 110-line document, or if you add 903 lines to make a 1000-line document. It is not a rewrite but an in-place edit. On the other hand, if you did lose 97 lines from the original, it does not matter if you added 27 lines to make a 30-line document or if you added 997 lines to make a 1000-line document. You did a complete rewrite in either case. This patch introduces a post-processing phase that runs after diffcore-rename matches up broken pairs diffcore-break creates. The purpose of this post-processing is to pick up these broken pieces and merge them back into in-place modifications. For this, the score parameter -B option takes is changed into a pair of numbers, and it takes "-B99/80" format when fully spelled out. The first number is the minimum amount of "edit" (same definition as what diffcore-rename uses, which is "sum of deletion and insertion") that a modification needs to have to be broken, and the second number is the minimum amount of "delete" a surviving broken pair must have to avoid being merged back together. It can be abbreviated to "-B" to use default for both, "-B9" or "-B9/" to use 90% for "edit" but default (80%) for merge avoidance, or "-B/75" to use default (99%) "edit" and 75% for merge avoidance.

* [PATCH] diff: mode bits fixesJunio C Hamano2005-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The core GIT repository has trees that record regular file mode in 0664 instead of normalized 0644 pattern. Comparing such a tree with another tree that records the same file in 0644 pattern without content changes with git-diff-tree causes it to feed otherwise unmodified pairs to the diff_change() routine, which triggers a sanity check routine and barfs. This patch fixes the problem, along with the fix to another caller that uses unnormalized mode bits to call diff_change() routine in a similar way. Without this patch, you will see "fatal error" from diff-tree when you run git-deltafy-script on the core GIT repository itself.
