Stefan Beller	2543a64187	range-diff: indent special lines as context The range-diff coloring is a bit fuzzy when it comes to special lines of a diff, such as indicating new and old files with +++ and ---, as it would pickup the first character and interpret it for its coloring, which seems annoying as in regular diffs, these lines are colored bold via DIFF_METAINFO. By indenting these lines by a white space, they will be treated as context which is much more useful, an example [1] on the range diff series itself: [...] + diff --git a/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt b/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt + new file mode 100644 + --- /dev/null + +++ b/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt +@@ ++git-range-diff(1) [...] + diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile [...] The first lines that introduce the new file for the man page will have the '+' sign colored and the rest of the line will be bold. The later lines that indicate a change to the Makefile will be treated as context both in the outer and inner diff, such that those lines stay regular color.

Stefan Beller	8d5ccb59de	range-diff: make use of different output indicators This change itself only changes the internal communication and should have no visible effect to the user. We instruct the diff code that produces the inner diffs to use other markers instead of the usual markers for new, old and context lines.

Eric Sunshine	73a834e9e2	range-diff: relieve callers of low-level configuration burden There are a number of very low-level configuration details which need to be managed precisely to generate a proper range-diff. In particular, 'diff_options' output format, header suppression, indentation, and dual-color mode must all be set appropriately to ensure proper behavior. Handle these details locally in the libified range-diff back-end rather than forcing each caller to have specialized knowledge of these implementation details, and to avoid duplication as new callers are added. While at it, localize these tweaks to be active only while generating the range-diff, so they don't clobber the caller-provided 'diff_options', which might be used beyond range-diff generation.

Eric Sunshine	87f1b2d45c	range-diff: respect diff_option.file rather than assuming 'stdout' The actual diffs output by range-diff respect diff_option.file, which range-diff passes down the call-chain, thus are destination-agnostic. However, output_pair_header() is hard-coded to emit to 'stdout'. Fix this by making output_pair_header() respect diff_option.file, as well.

Johannes Schindelin	d1f87a2d9c	range-diff: left-pad patch numbers As pointed out by Elijah Newren, tbdiff has this neat little alignment trick where it outputs the commit pairs with patch numbers that are padded to the maximal patch number's width: 1: cafedead = 1: acefade first patch [...] 314: beefeada < 314: facecab up to PI! Let's do the same in range-diff, too. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	7 years ago
Johannes Schindelin	faa1df86dc	range-diff: use color for the commit pairs Arguably the most important part of `git range-diff`'s output is the list of commits in the two branches, together with their relationships. For that reason, tbdiff introduced color-coding that is pretty intuitive, especially for unchanged patches (all dim yellow, like the first line in `git show`'s output) vs modified patches (old commit is red, new commit is green). Let's imitate that color scheme. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	7 years ago
Johannes Schindelin	4eba1fe615	range-diff: do not show "function names" in hunk headers We are comparing complete, formatted commit messages with patches. There are no function names here, so stop looking for them. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	7 years ago
Johannes Schindelin	eb0be38cc9	range-diff: adjust the output of the commit pairs This not only uses "dashed stand-ins" for "pairs" where one side is missing (i.e. unmatched commits that are present only in one of the two commit ranges), but also adds onelines for the reader's pleasure. This change brings `git range-diff` yet another step closer to feature parity with tbdiff: it now shows the oneline, too, and indicates with `=` when the commits have identical diffs.

Johannes Schindelin	a142f978e7	range-diff: right-trim commit messages When comparing commit messages, we need to keep in mind that they are indented by four spaces. That is, empty lines are no longer empty, but have "trailing whitespace". When displaying them in color, that results in those nagging red lines. Let's just right-trim the lines in the commit message, it's not like trailing white-space in the commit messages are important enough to care about in `git range-diff`.

Johannes Schindelin	c8c5e43ac3	range-diff: also show the diff between patches Just like tbdiff, we now show the diff between matching patches. This is a "diff of two diffs", so it can be a bit daunting to read for the beginner. An alternative would be to display an interdiff, i.e. the hypothetical diff which is the result of first reverting the old diff and then applying the new diff. Especially when rebasing frequently, an interdiff is often not feasible, though: if the old diff cannot be applied in reverse (due to a moving upstream), an interdiff can simply not be inferred. This commit brings `range-diff` closer to feature parity with regard to tbdiff. To make `git range-diff` respect e.g. color.diff.* settings, we have to adjust git_branch_config() accordingly. Note: while we now parse diff options such as --color, the effect is not yet the same as in tbdiff, where also the commit pairs would be colored. This is left for a later commit. Note also: while tbdiff accepts the `--no-patches` option to suppress these diffs between patches, we prefer the `-s` (or `--no-patch`) option that is automatically supported via our use of diff_opt_parse(). And finally note: to support diff options, we have to call `parse_options()` such that it keeps unknown options, and then loop over those and let `diff_opt_parse()` handle them. After that loop, we have to call `parse_options()` again, to make sure that no unknown options are left.

Johannes Schindelin	9dc46e0268	range-diff: improve the order of the shown commits This patch lets `git range-diff` use the same order as tbdiff. The idea is simple: for left-to-right readers, it is natural to assume that the `git range-diff` is performed between an older vs a newer version of the branch. As such, the user is probably more interested in the question "where did this come from?" rather than "where did that one go?". To that end, we list the commits in the order of the second commit range ("the newer version"), inserting the unmatched commits of the first commit range as soon as all their predecessors have been shown.

Johannes Schindelin	d9c66f0b5b	range-diff: first rudimentary implementation At this stage, `git range-diff` can determine corresponding commits of two related commit ranges. This makes use of the recently introduced implementation of the linear assignment algorithm. The core of this patch is a straight port of the ideas of tbdiff, the apparently dormant project at https://github.com/trast/tbdiff. The output does not at all match `tbdiff`'s output yet, as this patch really concentrates on getting the patch matching part right. Note: due to differences in the diff algorithm (`tbdiff` uses the Python module `difflib`, Git uses its xdiff fork), the cost matrix calculated by `range-diff` is different (but very similar) to the one calculated by `tbdiff`. Therefore, it is possible that they find different matching commits in corner cases (e.g. when a patch was split into two patches of roughly equal length).
