Implement the patience diff algorithm

2009-01-07T21:35:44Z

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). This patch includes memory leak fixes by Pierre Habouzit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

diff: add option to show context between close hunks

2008-12-29T09:05:21Z

Merge two hunks if there is only the specified number of otherwise unshown context between them. For --inter-hunk-context=1, the resulting patch has the same number of lines but shows uninterrupted context instead of a context header line in between. Patches generated with this option are easier to read but are also more likely to conflict if the file to be patched contains other changes. This patch keeps the default for this option at 0. It is intended to just make the feature available in order to see its advantages and downsides. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

xdiff: give up scanning similar lines early

2008-12-03T07:45:37Z

In a corner case of large files whose lines do not match uniquely, the loop to eliminate a line that matches multiple locations adjacent to a run of lines that do not uniquely match wasted too much cycles. Fix this by giving up early after scanning 100 lines in both direction. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
