2024-12-06diff.h: fix index used to loop through unsigned integerPatrick Steinhardt-2/+1
The `struct diff_flags` structure is essentially an array of flags, all of which have the same type. We can thus use `sizeof()` to iterate through all of the flags, which we do in `diff_flags_or()`. But while the statement returns an unsigned integer, we used a signed integer to iterate through the flags, which generates a warning. Fix this by using `size_t` for the index instead.

Code clean-up. * jk/output-prefix-cleanup: diff: store graph prefix buf in git_graph struct diff: return line_prefix directly when possible diff: return const char from output_prefix callback diff: drop line_prefix_length field line-log: use diff_line_prefix() instead of custom helper
2024-10-03diff: return const char from output_prefix callbackJeff King-1/+1
The diff_options structure has an output_prefix callback for returning a prefix string, but it does so by returning a pointer to a strbuf. This makes the interface awkward. There's no reason the callback should need to use a strbuf, and it creates questions about whether the ownership of the resulting buffer should be transferred to the caller (it should not be, but a recent attempt to clean up this code led to a double-free in some cases). The one advantage we get is that the strbuf contains a ptr/len pair, so we could in theory have a prefix with embedded NULs. But we can observe that none of the existing callbacks would ever produce such a NUL (they are usually just indentation or graph symbols, and even the "--line-prefix" option takes a NUL-terminated string). And anyway, only one caller (the one in log_tree_diff_flush) actually looks at the strbuf length. In every other case we use a helper function which discards the length and just returns the NUL-terminated string. So let's just have the callback return a "const char *" pointer. It's up to the callbacks themselves if they want to use a strbuf under the hood. And now the caller in log_tree_diff_flush() can just use the helper function along with everybody else. That lets us even simplify out the function pointer check, since the helper returns an empty string (technically this does mean we'll sometimes issue an empty fputs() call, but I don't think this code path is hot enough to care about that).

2024-10-03diff: drop line_prefix_length fieldJeff King-1/+0
The diff_options structure holds a line_prefix string and an associated length. But the length is always just the strlen() of the NUL-terminated string. Let's simplify the code by just storing the string pointer and assuming it is NUL-terminated when we use it. This will cause us to compute the string length in a few extra spots, but I don't think any of these are particularly hot code paths.

2024-09-27diff: fix leaking orderfile optionPatrick Steinhardt-1/+1
The `orderfile` diff option is being assigned via `OPT_FILENAME()`, which assigns an allocated string to the variable. We never free it though, causing a memory leak. Change the type of the string to `char *` and free it to plug the leak. This also requires us to use `xstrdup()` to assign the global config to it in case it is set. This leak is being hit in t7621, but plugging it alone does not make the test suite pass. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2024-08-09remerge-diff: clean up temporary objdir at a central placeJunio C Hamano-1/+1
After running a diff between two things, or a series of diffs while walking the history, the diff computation is concluded by a call to diff_result_code() to extract the exit status of the diff machinery. The function can work on "struct diffopt", but all the callers historically and currently pass "struct diffopt" that is embedded in the "struct rev_info" that is used to hold the remerge_diff bit and the remerge_objdir variable that points at the temporary object directory in use. Redefine diff_result_code() to take the whole "struct rev_info" to give it an access to these members related to remerge-diff, so that it can get rid of the temporary object directory for any and all callers that used the feature. We can lose the equivalent code to do so from the code paths for individual commands, diff-tree, diff, and log. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-06-14hash-ll: merge with "hash.h"Patrick Steinhardt-1/+1
The "hash-ll.h" header was introduced via d1cbe1e6d8 (hash-ll.h: split out of hash.h to remove dependency on repository.h, 2023-04-22) to make explicit the split between hash-related functions that rely on the global `the_repository`, and those that don't. This split is no longer necessary now that we we have removed the reliance on `the_repository`. Merge "hash-ll.h" back into "hash.h". This causes some code units to not include "repository.h" anymore, which requires us to add some forward declarations.

Extract the commonly used initialization of the --stat-width=<width>, --stat-name-width=<width> and --stat-graph-with=<width> parameters to their internal default values into a helper function, to avoid repeating the same initialization code in a few places. Add a couple of tests to additionally cover existing configuration options diff.statNameWidth=<width> and diff.statGraphWidth=<width> when used by git-merge to generate --stat outputs.

2023-08-21diff: drop useless "status" parameter from diff_result_code()Jeff King-1/+1
Many programs use diff_result_code() to get a user-visible program exit code from a diff result (e.g., checking opts.found_changes if --exit-code was requested). This function also takes a "status" parameter, which seems at first glance that it could be used to propagate an error encountered when computing the diff. But it doesn't work that way: - negative values are passed through as-is, but are not appropriate as program exit codes - when --exit-code or --check is in effect, we _ignore_ the passed-in status completely. So a failed diff which did not have a chance to set opts.found_changes would erroneously report "success, no changes" instead of propagating the error. After recent cleanups, neither of these bugs is possible to trigger, as every caller just passes in "0". So rather than fixing them, we can simply drop the useless parameter instead.

2023-08-21diff: drop useless return from run_diff_{files,index} functionsJeff King-2/+2
Neither of these functions ever returns a value other than zero. Instead, they expect unrecoverable errors to exit immediately, and things like "--exit-code" are stored inside the diff_options struct to be handled later via diff_result_code(). Some callers do check the return values, but many don't bother. Let's drop the useless return values, which are misleading callers about how the functions work. This could be seen as a step in the wrong direction, as we might want to eventually "lib-ify" these to more cleanly return errors up the stack, in which case we'd have to add the return values back in. But there are some benefits to doing this now: 1. In the current code, somebody could accidentally add a "return -1" to one of the functions, which would be erroneously ignored by many callers. By removing the return code, the compiler can notice the mismatch and force the developer to decide what to do. Obviously the other option here is that we could start consistently checking the error code in every caller. But it would be dead code, and we wouldn't get any compile-time help in catching new cases. 2. It communicates the situation to callers, who may want to choose a different function. These functions are really thin wrappers for doing git-diff-files and git-diff-index within the process. But callers who care about recovering from an error here are probably better off using the underlying library functions, many of which do return errors. If somebody eventually wants to teach these functions to propagate errors, they'll have to switch back to returning a value, effectively reverting this patch. But at least then they will be starting with a level playing field: they know that they will need to inspect each caller to see how it should handle the error.

2023-06-28config: add ctx arg to config_fn_tGlen Choo-2/+5
Add a new "const struct config_context *ctx" arg to config_fn_t to hold additional information about the config iteration operation. config_context has a "struct key_value_info kvi" member that holds metadata about the config source being read (e.g. what kind of config source it is, the filename, etc). In this series, we're only interested in .kvi, so we could have just used "struct key_value_info" as an arg, but config_context makes it possible to add/adjust members in the future without changing the config_fn_t signature. We could also consider other ways of organizing the args (e.g. moving the config name and value into config_context or key_value_info), but in my experiments, the incremental benefit doesn't justify the added complexity (e.g. a config_fn_t will sometimes invoke another config_fn_t but with a different config value). In subsequent commits, the .kvi member will replace the global "struct config_reader" in config.c, making config iteration a global-free operation. It requires much more work for the machinery to provide meaningful values of .kvi, so for now, merely change the signature and call sites, pass NULL as a placeholder value, and don't rely on the arg in any meaningful way. Most of the changes are performed by contrib/coccinelle/config_fn_ctx.pending.cocci, which, for every config_fn_t: - Modifies the signature to accept "const struct config_context *ctx" - Passes "ctx" to any inner config_fn_t, if needed - Adds UNUSED attributes to "ctx", if needed Most config_fn_t instances are easily identified by seeing if they are called by the various config functions. Most of the remaining ones are manually named in the .cocci patch. Manual cleanups are still needed, but the majority of it is trivial; it's either adjusting config_fn_t that the .cocci patch didn't catch, or adding forward declarations of "struct config_context ctx" to make the signatures make sense. The non-trivial changes are in cases where we are invoking a config_fn_t outside of config machinery, and we now need to decide what value of "ctx" to pass. These cases are: - trace2/tr2_cfg.c:tr2_cfg_set_fl() This is indirectly called by git_config_set() so that the trace2 machinery can notice the new config values and update its settings using the tr2 config parsing function, i.e. tr2_cfg_cb(). - builtin/checkout.c:checkout_main() This calls git_xmerge_config() as a shorthand for parsing a CLI arg. This might be worth refactoring away in the future, since git_xmerge_config() can call git_default_config(), which can do much more than just parsing. Handle them by creating a KVI_INIT macro that initializes "struct key_value_info" to a reasonable default, and use that to construct the "ctx" arg.

Enforce precedence of the diff algorithm by favoring the command line option, then looking at the driver attributes & config combination, then finally the diff.algorithm config.

2022-01-28diff-filter: be more careful when looking for negative bitsJohannes Schindelin-1/+1
The `--diff-filter=<bits>` option allows to filter the diff by certain criteria, for example `R` to only show renamed files. It also supports negating a filter via a down-cased letter, i.e. `r` to show _everything but_ renamed files. However, the code is a bit overzealous when trying to figure out whether `git diff` should start with all diff-filters turned on because the user provided a lower-case letter: if the `--diff-filter` argument starts with an upper-case letter, we must not start with all bits turned on. Even worse, it is possible to specify the diff filters in multiple, separate options, e.g. `--diff-filter=AM [...] --diff-filter=m`. Let's accumulate the include/exclude filters independently, and only special-case the "only exclude filters were specified" case after parsing the options altogether. Note: The code replaced by this commit took pains to avoid setting any unused bits of `options->filter`. That was unnecessary, though, as all accesses happen via the `filter_bit_tst()` function using specific bits, and setting the unused bits has no effect. Therefore, we can simplify the code by using `~0` (or in this instance, `~<unwanted-bit>`).

In a past life they'd been on adjacent lines, but when they got moved from a global variable to the diff_options struct in 6b5ee137e5 (Diff clean-up., 2005-09-21) they got split apart. That split made sense at the time, the "char*" and "int" (flags) options were being grouped, but we've long since abandoned that pattern in the diff_options struct, and now it makes more sense to group these together again.

2021-05-11pickaxe: die when --find-object and --pickaxe-all are combinedÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason-0/+2
Neither the --pickaxe-all documentation nor --find-object's has ever suggested that you can combine the two. See f506b8e8b5 (git log/diff: add -G<regexp> that greps in the patch text, 2010-08-23) and 15af58c1ad (diffcore: add a pickaxe option to find a specific blob, 2018-01-04). But we've silently tolerated it, which makes the logic in diffcore_pickaxe() harder to reason about. Let's assert that we won't have the two combined.

2021-05-11pickaxe: die when -G and --pickaxe-regex are combinedÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason-0/+2
When the -G and --pickaxe-regex options are combined we simply ignore the --pickaxe-regex option. Let's die instead as suggested by our documentation, since -G is always a regex. When --pickaxe-regex was added in d01d8c6782 (Support for pickaxe matching regular expressions, 2006-03-29) only the -S option existed. Then when -G was added in f506b8e8b5 (git log/diff: add -G<regexp> that greps in the patch text, 2010-08-23) neither the documentation for --pickaxe-regex was updated accordingly, nor was something like this assertion added. Since 5bc3f0b567 (diffcore-pickaxe doc: document -S and -G properly, 2013-05-31) we've claimed that --pickaxe-regex should only be used with -S, but have silently tolerated combining it with -G, let's die instead.

"git {diff,log} --{skip,rotate}-to=<path>" allows the user to discard diff output for early paths or move them to the end of the output. * jc/diffcore-rotate: diff: --{rotate,skip}-to=<path>
2021-02-16diff: --{rotate,skip}-to=<path>Junio C Hamano-0/+21
In the implementation of "git difftool", there is a case where the user wants to start viewing the diffs at a specific path and continue on to the rest, optionally wrapping around to the beginning. Since it is somewhat cumbersome to implement such a feature as a post-processing step of "git diff" output, let's support it internally with two new options. - "git diff --rotate-to=C", when the resulting patch would show paths A B C D E without the option, would "rotate" the paths to shows patch to C D E A B instead. It is an error when there is no patch for C is shown. - "git diff --skip-to=C" would instead "skip" the paths before C, and shows patch to C D E. Again, it is an error when there is no patch for C is shown. - "git log [-p]" also accepts these two options, but it is not an error if there is no change to the specified path. Instead, the set of output paths are rotated or skipped to the specified path or the first path that sorts after the specified path. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-02-11diff: add an API for deferred freeingÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason-1/+14
Add a diff_free() function to free anything we may have allocated in the "diff_options" struct, and the ability to make calling it a noop by setting "no_free" in "diff_options". This is required because when e.g. "git diff" is run we'll allocate things in that struct, use the diff machinery once, and then exit. But if we run e.g. "git log -p" we're going to re-use what we allocated across multiple diff_flush() calls, and only want to free things at the end. We've thus ended up with features like the recently added "diff -I"[1] where we'll leak memory. As it turns out it could have simply used the pattern established in 6ea57703f6 (log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute, 2016-06-22). Manually adding more such flags to things log_tree_commit() every time we need to allocate something would be tedious. Let's instead move that fclose() code it to a new diff_free(), in anticipation of freeing more things in that function in follow-up commits. Some functions such as log_tree_commit() need an idiom of optionally retaining a previous "no_free", as they may either free the memory themselves, or their caller may do so. I'm keeping that idiom in log_show_early() for good measure, even though I don't think it's currently called in this manner. It also gets passed an existing "struct rev_info", so future callers may want to set the "no_free" flag. This change is a bit hard to read because while the freeing pattern we're introducing isn't unusual, the "file" member is a special snowflake. We usually don't want to fclose() it. This is because "file" is usually stdout, in which case we don't want to fclose() it. We only want to opt-in to closing it when we e.g. open a file on the filesystem. Thus the opt-in "close_file" flag. So the API in general just needs a "no_free" flag to defer freeing, but the "file" member still needs its "close_file" flag. This is made more confusing because while refactoring this code we could replace some "close_file=0" with "no_free=1", whereas others need to set both flags. This is because there were some cases where an existing "close_file=0" meant "let's defer deallocation", and others where it meant "we don't want to close this file handle at all". 1. 296d4a94e7 (diff: add -I<regex> that ignores matching changes, 2020-10-20) Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-01-25Merge branch 'sj/untracked-files-in-submodule-directory-is-not-dirty'Junio C Hamano-0/+1
"git diff" showed a submodule working tree with untracked cruft as "Submodule commit <objectname>-dirty", but a natural expectation is that the "-dirty" indicator would align with "git describe --dirty", which does not consider having untracked files in the working tree as source of dirtiness. The inconsistency has been fixed. * sj/untracked-files-in-submodule-directory-is-not-dirty: diff: do not show submodule with untracked files as "-dirty"
2020-12-08diff: do not show submodule with untracked files as "-dirty"Sangeeta Jain-0/+1
Git diff reports a submodule directory as -dirty even when there are only untracked files in the submodule directory. This is inconsistent with what `git describe --dirty` says when run in the submodule directory in that state. Make `--ignore-submodules=untracked` the default for `git diff` when there is no configuration variable or command line option, so that the command would not give '-dirty' suffix to a submodule whose working tree has untracked files, to make it consistent with `git describe --dirty` that is run in the submodule working tree. And also make `--ignore-submodules=none` the default for `git status` so that the user doesn't end up deleting a submodule that has uncommitted (untracked) files.

2020-10-20diff: add -I<regex> that ignores matching changesMichał Kępień-0/+4
Add a new diff option that enables ignoring changes whose all lines (changed, removed, and added) match a given regular expression. This is similar to the -I/--ignore-matching-lines option in standalone diff utilities and can be used e.g. to ignore changes which only affect code comments or to look for unrelated changes in commits containing a large number of automatically applied modifications (e.g. a tree-wide string replacement). The difference between -G/-S and the new -I option is that the latter filters output on a per-change basis. Use the 'ignore' field of xdchange_t for marking a change as ignored or not. Since the same field is used by --ignore-blank-lines, identical hunk emitting rules apply for --ignore-blank-lines and -I. These two options can also be used together in the same git invocation (they are complementary to each other). Rename xdl_mark_ignorable() to xdl_mark_ignorable_lines(), to indicate that it is logically a "sibling" of xdl_mark_ignorable_regex() rather than its "parent".
