diff: restrict when prefetching occurs

2020-04-07T23:09:29Z

Commit 7fbbcb21b1 ("diff: batch fetching of missing blobs", 2019-04-08) optimized "diff" by prefetching blobs in a partial clone, but there are some cases wherein blobs do not need to be prefetched. In these cases, any command that uses the diff machinery will unnecessarily fetch blobs. diffcore_std() may read blobs when it calls the following functions: (1) diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch() (controlled by the config variable diff.autorefreshindex) (2) diffcore_break() and diffcore_merge_broken() (for break-rewrite detection) (3) diffcore_rename() (for rename detection) (4) diffcore_pickaxe() (for detecting addition/deletion of specified string) Instead of always prefetching blobs, teach diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch(), diffcore_break(), and diffcore_rename() to prefetch blobs upon the first read of a missing object. This covers (1), (2), and (3): to cover the rest, teach diffcore_std() to prefetch if the output type is one that includes blob data (and hence blob data will be required later anyway), or if it knows that (4) will be run.

diff: make diff_populate_filespec_options struct

2020-04-07T23:09:29Z

The behavior of diff_populate_filespec() currently can be customized through a bitflag, but a subsequent patch requires it to support a non-boolean option. Replace the bitflag with an options struct. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

diff: move doc to diff.h and diffcore.h

2019-11-18T06:21:28Z

Move the documentation from Documentation/technical/api-diff.txt to both diff.h and diffcore.h as it's easier for the developers to find the usage information beside the code instead of looking for it in another doc file. Also documentation/technical/api-diff.txt is removed because the information it has is now redundant and it'll be hard to keep it up to date and synchronized with the documentation in the header files. There are three members documented in the doc file that weren't found in the header files, assuming the doc wasn't up to date and the members no longer exist: touched_flags, COLOR_DIFF_WORDS and QUIET.

diff.c: reduce implicit dependency on the_index

2018-09-21T16:48:10Z

diff and textconv code has so widespread use that it's hard to simply update their api and all call sites at once because it would result in a big patch. For now reduce the_index references to two places: diff_setup() and fill_textconv(). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'en/incl-forward-decl'

2018-08-20T19:41:32Z

Code hygiene improvement for the header files. * en/incl-forward-decl: Remove forward declaration of an enum compat/precompose_utf8.h: use more common include guard style urlmatch.h: fix include guard Move definition of enum branch_track from cache.h to branch.h alloc: make allocate_alloc_state and clear_alloc_state more consistent Add missing includes and forward declarations

Add missing includes and forward declarations

I looped over the toplevel header files, creating a temporary two-line C program for each consisting of #include "git-compat-util.h" #include $HEADER This patch is the result of manually fixing errors in compiling those tiny programs. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

diffcore-delta: remove unused parameter to diffcore_count_changes()

2016-11-14T17:24:04Z

The delta_limit parameter to diffcore_count_changes() has been unused since commit ba23bbc8e ("diffcore-delta: make change counter to byte oriented again.", 2006-03-04). Remove the parameter and adjust all callers. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
