Jonathan Nieder	4bb0936206	merge-file --diff3: add a label for ancestor git merge-file --diff3 can be used to present conflicts hunks including text from the common ancestor. The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and merge tools can usually grok it because it looks like output from diff3 -m. However, ‘diff3’ includes a label for the merge base on the \|\|\|\|\|\|\| line and some tools cannot parse conflict hunks without such a label. Write the base-name as passed in a -L option (or the name of the ancestor file by default) on that line. git rerere will not have trouble parsing this output, since instead of looking for a newline, it looks for whitespace after the \|\|\|\|\|\|\| marker. Since rerere includes its own code for recreating conflict hunks, conflict identifiers are unaffected. No other code in git tries to parse conflict hunks.

Jonathan Nieder	a4b5e91c49	xdl_merge(): move file1 and file2 labels to xmparam structure The labels for the three participants in a potential conflict are all optional arguments for the xdiff merge routine; if they are NULL, then xdl_merge() can cope by omitting the labels from its output. Move them to the xmparam structure to allow new callers to save some keystrokes where they are not needed. This also has the virtue of making the xdiff merge interface more similar to merge_trees, which might make it easier to learn.

Linus Torvalds	81b50f3ce4	Move 'builtin-' into a 'builtin/' subdirectory This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n) [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab> builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c you get [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type] builtin/ builtin.h [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief. NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '.o' files, you won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	15 years ago
Junio C Hamano	00f8f97d30	xdl_merge(): introduce xmparam_t for merge specific parameters So far we have only needed to be able to pass an option that is generic to xdiff family of functions to this function.

Junio C Hamano	73eb40eeaa	git-merge-file --ours, --theirs Sometimes people want their conflicting merges autoresolved by favouring upstream changes. The standard answer they are given is to run "git diff --name-only \| xargs git checkout MERGE_HEAD --" in such a case. This is to accept automerge results for the paths that are fully resolved automatically, while taking their version of the file in full for paths that have conflicts. This is problematic on two counts. One is that this is not exactly what these people want. It discards all changes they did on their branch for any paths that conflicted. They usually want to salvage as much automerge result as possible in a conflicted file, and want to take the upstream change only in the conflicted part. This patch teaches two new modes of operation to the lowest-lever merge machinery, xdl_merge(). Instead of leaving the conflicted lines from both sides enclosed in <<<, ===, and >>> markers, the conflicts are resolved favouring our side or their side of changes. A larger problem is that this tends to encourage a bad workflow by allowing people to record such a mixed up half-merged result as a full commit without auditing. This commit does not tackle this issue at all. In git, we usually give long enough rope to users with strange wishes as long as the risky features are not enabled by default, and this is such a risky feature.

Junio C Hamano	b541248467	merge.conflictstyle: choose between "merge" and "diff3 -m" styles This teaches "git merge-file" to honor merge.conflictstyle configuration variable, whose value can be "merge" (default) or "diff3". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Junio C Hamano	83133740d9	xmerge.c: "diff3 -m" style clips merge reduction level to EAGER or less When showing a conflicting merge result, and "--diff3 -m" style is asked for, this patch makes sure that the merge reduction level does not exceed XDL_MERGE_EAGER. This is because "diff3 -m" style output would not make sense for anything more aggressive than XDL_MERGE_EAGER, because of the way how the merge reduction works. "git merge-file" no longer has to force MERGE_EAGER when "--diff3" is asked for because of this change. Suppose a common ancestor (shared preimage) is modified to postimage #1 and #2 (each letter represents one line): ##### postimage#1: 1234ABCDE789 \| / \| / preimage: 123456789 \| \ postimage#2: 1234AXYE789 #### XDL_MERGE_MINIMAL and XDL_MERGE_EAGER would: (1) find the s/56/ABCDE/ done on one side and s/56/AXYE/ done on the other side, (2) notice that they touch an overlapping area, and (3) mark it as a conflict, "ABCDE vs AXYE". The difference between the two algorithms is that EAGER drops the hunk altogether if the postimages match (i.e. both sides modified the same way), while MINIMAL keeps it. There is no other operation performed to the hunk. As the result, lines marked with "#" in the above picure will be in the RCS merge style output like this (letters <, = and > represent conflict marker lines): output: 1234<ABCDE=AXYE>789 ; with MINIMAL/EAGER The part from the preimage that corresponds to these conflicting changes is "56", which is what "diff3 -m" style output adds to it: output: 1234<ABCDE\|56=AXYE>789 ; in "diff3 -m" style Now, XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS looks at the differences between the changes two postimages made in order to reduce the number of lines in the conflicting regions. It notices that both sides start their new contents with "A", and excludes it from the output (it also excludes "E" for the same reason). The conflict that used to be "ABCDE vs AXYE" is now "BCD vs XY": output: 1234A<BCD=XY>E789 ; with ZEALOUS There could even be matching parts between two postimages in the middle. Instead of one side rewriting the shared "56" to "ABCDE" and the other side to "AXYE", imagine the case where the postimages are "ABCDE" and "AXCYE", in which case instead of having one conflicted hunk "BCD vs XY", you would have two conflicting hunks "B vs X" and "D vs Y". In either case, once you reduce "ABCDE vs AXYE" to "BCD vs XY" (or "ABCDE vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs Y"), there is no part from the preimage that corresponds to the conflicting change made in both postimages anymore. In other words, conflict reduced by ZEALOUS algorithm cannot be expressed in "diff3 -m" style. Representing the last illustration like this is misleading to say the least: output: 1234A<BCD\|56=XY>E789 ; broken "diff3 -m" style because the preimage was not ...4A56E... to begin with. "A" and "E" are common only between the postimages. Even worse, once a single conflicting hunk is split into multiple ones (recall the example of breaking "ABCDE vs AXCYE" to "B vs X" and "D vs Y"), there is no sane way to distribute the preimage text across split conflicting hunks.

Junio C Hamano	e0af48e496	xdiff-merge: optionally show conflicts in "diff3 -m" style When showing conflicting merges, we traditionally followed RCS's merge output format. The output shows: <<<<<<< postimage from one side; ======= postimage of the other side; and >>>>>>> Some poeple find it easier to be able to understand what is going on when they can view the common ancestor's version, which is used by "diff3 -m", which shows: <<<<<<< postimage from one side; \|\|\|\|\|\|\| shared preimage; ======= postimage of the other side; and >>>>>>> This is an initial step to bring that as an optional feature to git. Only "git merge-file" has been converted, with "--diff3" option. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago

Johannes Schindelin	ee95ec5d58	xdl_merge(): introduce XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS_ALNUM When a merge conflicts, there are often common lines that are not really common, such as empty lines or lines containing a single curly bracket. With XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS_ALNUM, we use the following heuristics: when a hunk does not contain any letters or digits, it is treated as conflicting. In other words, a conflict which used to look like this: <<<<<<< a = 1; ======= output(); >>>>>>> } } } <<<<<<< output(); ======= b = 1; >>>>>>> will look like this with ZEALOUS_ALNUM: <<<<<<< a = 1; } } } output(); ======= output(); } } } b = 1; >>>>>>> To demonstrate this, git-merge-file has been switched from XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS to XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS_ALNUM.
