* Merge branch 'jc/diff-no-index-d-f'Junio C Hamano2015-05-05
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work. Also, when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff" and compare the file with the file with the same name in the directory, instead of refusing to run. * jc/diff-no-index-d-f: diff-no-index: align D/F handling with that of normal Git diff-no-index: DWIM "diff D F" into "diff D/F F"

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a commit changes a path P that used to be a file to a directory and creates a new path P/X in it, "git show" would say that file P was removed and file P/X was created for such a commit. However, if we compare two directories, D1 and D2, where D1 has a file D1/P in it and D2 has a directory D2/P under which there is a file D2/P/X, and ask "git diff --no-index D1 D2" to show their differences, we simply get a refusal "file/directory conflict". Surely, that may be what GNU diff does, but we can do better and it is easy to do so. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
| * diff-no-index: DWIM "diff D F" into "diff D/F F"Junio C Hamano2015-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git diff --no-index" was supposed to be a poor-man's approach to allow using Git diff goodies outside of a Git repository, without having to patch mainstream diff implementations. Unlike a POSIX diff that treats "diff D F" (or "diff F D") as a request to compare D/F and F (or F and D/F) when D is a directory and F is a file, however, we did not accept such a command line and instead barfed with "file/directory conflict". Imitate what POSIX diff does and append the basename of the file after the name of the directory before comparing. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

|/ | | | | | | | This makes our output in the event of a failure slightly nicer, and it means that we do not break the &&-chain. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* diff: add test for --no-index executed outside repoThomas Gummerer2013-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | 470faf9 diff: move no-index detection to builtin/diff.c breaks the error message for "git diff --no-index", when the command is executed outside of a git repository and the wrong number of arguments are given. 6df5762 diff: don't read index when --no-index is given fixes the problem. Add a test to guard against similar breakages in the future. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gummerer <t.gummerer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* diff: don't read index when --no-index is givenThomas Gummerer2013-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git diff --no-index ... currently reads the index, during setup, when calling gitmodules_config(). This results in worse performance when the index is not actually needed. This patch avoids calling gitmodules_config() when the --no-index option is given. The times for executing "git diff --no-index" in the WebKit repository are improved as follows: Test HEAD~3 HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------ 4001.1: diff --no-index 0.24(0.15+0.09) 0.01(0.00+0.00) -95.8% An additional improvement of this patch is that "git diff --no-index" no longer breaks when the index file is corrupt, which makes it possible to use it for investigating the broken repository. To improve the possible usage as investigation tool for broken repositories, setup_git_directory_gently() is also not called when the --no-index option is given. Also add a test to guard against future breakages, and a performance test to show the improvements.

* diff: handle relative paths in no-indexJeff King2012-06-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When diff-no-index is given a relative path to a file outside the repository, it aborts with error. However, if the file is given using an absolute path, the diff runs as expected. The two cases should be treated the same. Tests and commit message by Tim Henigan.

* diff --no-index: reset temporary buffer lengths on directory iterationBobby Powers2012-05-16
Commit 875b91b (diff --no-index: use strbuf for temporary pathnames, 2012-04-25) introduced a regression when using diff --no-index with directories. When iterating through a directory, the switch to strbuf from heap-allocated char arrays caused paths to form like 'dir/file1', 'dir/file1file2', rather than 'dir/file1', 'dir/file2' as expected. Avoid this by resetting the paths variables to their original length before each iteration.
