diff-lib: plug minor memory leaks in do_diff_cache()

2020-11-16T21:45:42Z

do_diff_cache() builds a struct rev_info to hand to diff_cache() from scratch by initializing it using repo_init_revisions() and then replacing its diffopt and prune_data members. The diffopt member is initialized to a heap-allocated list of options, though. Release it using diff_setup_done() before overwriting it. The initial value of the prune_data member doesn't need to be released, but the copy created using copy_pathspec() does. Clear it after use. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'nk/diff-files-vs-fsmonitor'

2020-11-09T22:06:25Z

"git diff" and other commands that share the same machinery to compare with working tree files have been taught to take advantage of the fsmonitor data when available. * nk/diff-files-vs-fsmonitor: p7519-fsmonitor: add a git add benchmark p7519-fsmonitor: refactor to avoid code duplication perf lint: add make test-lint to perf tests t/perf: add fsmonitor perf test for git diff t/perf/p7519-fsmonitor.sh: warm cache on first git status t/perf/README: elaborate on output format fsmonitor: use fsmonitor data in `git diff`

Merge branch 'dl/diff-merge-base'

2020-11-02T21:17:39Z

"git diff A...B" learned "git diff --merge-base A B", which is a longer short-hand to say the same thing. * dl/diff-merge-base: contrib/completion: complete `git diff --merge-base` builtin/diff-tree: learn --merge-base builtin/diff-index: learn --merge-base t4068: add --merge-base tests diff-lib: define diff_get_merge_base() diff-lib: accept option flags in run_diff_index() contrib/completion: extract common diff/difftool options git-diff.txt: backtick quote command text git-diff-index.txt: make --cached description a proper sentence t4068: remove unnecessary >tmp

fsmonitor: use fsmonitor data in `git diff`

2020-10-20T19:52:21Z

With fsmonitor enabled, the first call to match_stat_with_submodule calls refresh_fsmonitor, incurring the overhead of reading the list of updated files -- but run_diff_files does not respect the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID flag. Make use of the fsmonitor extension to skip lstat() calls on files that fsmonitor judged as unmodified. Notably, this change improves performance of the git shell prompt when GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE is set. Signed-off-by: Alex Vandiver Signed-off-by: Nipunn Koorapati Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Code simplification. * so/combine-diff-simplify: diff: get rid of redundant 'dense' argument

diff: get rid of redundant 'dense' argument

2020-09-29T18:54:53Z

Get rid of 'dense' argument that is redundant for every function that has 'struct rev_info *rev' argument as well, as the value of 'dense' passed is always taken from 'rev->dense_combined_merges' field. The only place where this was not the case is in 'submodule.c' where 'diff_tree_combined_merge()' was called with '1' for 'dense' argument. However, at that call the 'revs' instance used is local to the function, and we now just set 'revs->dense_combined_merges' to 1 in this local instance.

Merge branch 'es/format-patch-interdiff-cleanup'

2020-09-22T19:36:28Z

"format-patch --range-diff= ..HEAD" has been taught not to ignore when is a single version. * es/format-patch-interdiff-cleanup: format-patch: use 'origin' as start of current-series-range when known diff-lib: tighten show_interdiff()'s interface diff: move show_interdiff() from its own file to diff-lib

builtin/diff-index: learn --merge-base

2020-09-21T04:30:26Z

There is currently no easy way to take the diff between the working tree or index and the merge base between an arbitrary commit and HEAD. Even diff's `...` notation doesn't allow this because it only works between commits. However, the ability to do this would be desirable to a user who would like to see all the changes they've made on a branch plus uncommitted changes without taking into account changes made in the upstream branch. Teach diff-index and diff (with one commit) the --merge-base option which allows a user to use the merge base of a commit and HEAD as the "before" side.

diff-lib: define diff_get_merge_base()

2020-09-21T04:30:26Z

In a future commit, we will be using this function to implement --merge-base functionality in various diff commands. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
