The combined diff machinery can be used to compare:
- a merge commit with its parent commits;
- a working-tree file with multiple stages in an unmerged index; or
- a working-tree file with the HEAD and the index.
The internal function combine-diff.c:show_patch_diff() checked if it needs
to read the "result" from the working tree by looking at the object name
of the result --- if it is null_sha1, it read from the working tree.
This mistook a merge that records a deletion as the conflict resolution
as if it is a cue to read from the working tree. Pass this information
explicitly from the caller instead.

When doing a combined diff, we did not respect textconv attributes at
all. This generally lead to us printing "Binary files differ" when we
could show a combined diff of the converted text.
This patch converts file contents according to textconv attributes. The
implementation is slightly ugly; because the textconv code is tightly
linked with the diff_filespec code, we temporarily create a diff_filespec
during conversion. In practice, though, this should not create a
performance problem.

The combined diff code path is totally different from the
regular diff code path, and didn't handle binary files at
all. The results of a combined diff on a binary file could
range from annoying (since we spewed binary garbage,
possibly upsetting the user's terminal), to wrong (embedded
NULs caused us to show incorrect diffs, with lines truncated
at the NUL character), to potential security problems
(embedded NULs could interfere with "-z" output, possibly
defeating policy hooks which parse diff output).
Instead, we consider a combined diff to be binary if any of
the input blobs is binary. To show a binary combined diff,
we indicate "Binary blobs differ"; the "index" meta line
will show which parents had which blob.

Ever since the xdiff library had been introduced to git, all its callers
have used the flag XDF_NEED_MINIMAL. It makes sure that the smallest
possible diff is produced, but that takes quite some time if there are
lots of differences that can be expressed in multiple ways.
This flag makes a difference for only 0.1% of the non-merge commits in
the git repo of Linux, both in terms of diff size and execution time.
The patches there are mostly nice and small.
SungHyun Nam however reported a case in a different repo where a diff
took more than 20 times longer to generate with XDF_NEED_MINIMAL than
without. Rebasing became really slow.
This patch removes this flag from all callers. The default of xdiff is
saner because it has minimal to no impact in the normal case of small
diffs and doesn't incur that much of a speed penalty for large ones.
A follow-up patch may introduce a command line option to set the flag if
the user needs it, similar to GNU diff's -d/--minimal.

Consider an evil merge of two commits A and B, both of which have a
file 'foo', but the merge result does not have that file.
The combined-diff code learned in 4462731 (combine-diff: do not punt
on removed or added files., 2006-02-06) to concisely show only the
removal, since that is the evil part and the previous contents are
presumably uninteresting.
However, to diagnose an empty merge result, it overloaded the variable
that holds the file's length. This means that the check also triggers
for truncated files. Consequently, such files were not shown in the
diff at all despite the merge being clearly evil.
Fix this by adding a new variable that distinguishes whether the file
was deleted (which is the case 4462731 handled) or truncated. In the
truncated case, we show the full combined diff again, which is rather
spammy but at least does not hide the evilness.

happen after all the existing matches (in this case "two"). The code used
a naïve O(n^2) algorithm to compute this by scanning the whole removal

This patch remembers where the next scan should be started in the existing

When the tracked contents have CRLF line endings, colored diff output
shows "^M" at the end of output lines, which is distracting, even though
the pager we use by default ("less") knows to hide them.
The problem is that "less" hides a carriage-return only at the end of the
line, immediately before a line feed. The colored diff output does not
take this into account, and emits four element sequence for each line:
- force this color;
- the line up to but not including the terminating line feed;
- reset color
- line feed.
By including the carriage return at the end of the line in the second
item, we are breaking the smart our pager has in order not to show "^M".
This can be fixed by changing the sequence to:
- force this color;
- the line up to but not including the terminating end-of-line;
- reset color
- end-of-line.
where end-of-line is either a single linefeed or a CRLF pair. When the
output is not colored, "force this color" and "reset color" sequences are
both empty, so we won't have this problem with or without this patch.

* quote_c_style works on a strbuf instead of a wild buffer.
* quote_c_style is now clever enough to not add double quotes if not needed.
* write_name_quoted inherits those advantages, but also take a different
set of arguments. Now instead of asking for quotes or not, you pass a
"terminator". If it's \0 then we assume you don't want to escape, else C
escaping is performed. In any case, the terminator is also appended to the
stream. It also no longer takes the prefix/prefix_len arguments, as it's
seldomly used, and makes some optimizations harder.
* write_name_quotedpfx is created to work like write_name_quoted and take
the prefix/prefix_len arguments.
Thanks to those API changes, diff.c has somehow lost weight, thanks to the
removal of functions that were wrappers around the old write_name_quoted
trying to give it a semantics like the new one, but performing a lot of
allocations for this goal. Now we always write directly to the stream, no
intermediate allocation is performed.

Then mark the paths that you want to use this custom driver

This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose

On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause

Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the

int len = st.st_size;
Instead of "int", that should be "size_t". Otherwise, in the

the following xmalloc will fail:
result = xmalloc(len + 1);
trying to allocate 2^64 - 2^31 + 1 bytes (assuming sign-extension
in the int-to-size_t promotion). And even if it didn't fail, the
subsequent "result[len] = 0;" would be equivalent to an unpleasant
"result[-2147483648] = 0;"
The other nearby "int"-declared size variable, sz, should also be of

when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".

"git diff(n)" without --base, --ours, etc. defaults to --cc,
which usually is the same as -p unless you are in the middle of
a conflicted merge, just like the shell script version.
"git diff(n) blobA blobB path" complains and dies.
"git diff(n) tree0 tree1 tree2...treeN" does combined diff that
shows a merge of tree1..treeN to result in tree0.
Giving "-c" option to any command that defaults to "--cc" turns

Asking for stat (either with --stat or --patch-with-stat) gives
you diffstat for the first parent, even under combine-diff.
While the combined patch is useful to highlight the complexity
and interaction of the parts touched by all branches when
reviewing a merge commit, diffstat is a tool to assess the
extent of damage the merge brings in, and showing stat with the
first parent is more sensible than clever per-parent diffstat.

Here's a further patch on top of the previous one with cosmetic
improvements (no "real" code changes, just trivial updates):
- it gets the "---" before a diffstat right, including for the combined
merge case. Righ now the logic is that we always use "---" when we have
a diffstat, and an empty line otherwise. That's how I visually prefer
it, but hey, it can be tweaked later.
- I made "diff --cc/combined" add the "---/+++" header lines too. The
thing won't be mistaken for a valid diff, since the "@@" lines have too
many "@" characters (three or more), but it just makes it visually
match a real diff, which at least to me makes a big difference in
readability. Without them, it just looks very "wrong".
I guess I should have taken the filename from each individual entry
(and had one "---" file per parent), but I didn't even bother to try to
see how that works, so this was the simple thing.
With this, doing a
git log --cc --patch-with-stat
looks quite readable, I think. The only nagging issue - as far as I'm
concerned - is that diffstats for merges are pretty questionable the way
they are done now. I suspect it would be better to just have the _first_
diffstat, and always make the merge diffstat be the one for "result
against first parent".

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between
the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's
a patch that does exactly that.
The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is
still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for
merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do
something like
if (rev->logopt)
show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n");
but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it
alone.
That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular,
the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean:
while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
log_tree_commit(rev, commit);
free(commit->buffer);
commit->buffer = NULL;
}
so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely
hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally
just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation.
I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead
of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean.
This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit
descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new
reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine
too.

When showing a conflicted merge from index stages and working
tree file, we did not fetch the mode from the working tree,
and mistook that as a deleted file. Also if the manual

taking either parent's version, we did not show _anything_ for
that path. Either was quite bad and confusing.

This shows "new file mode XXXX" and "deleted file mode XXXX"
lines like two-way diff-patch output does, by checking the
status from each parent.
The diff-raw output for combined diff is made a bit uglier by
showing diff status letters with each parent. While most of the
case you would see "MM" in the output, an Evil Merge that
touches a path that was added by inheriting from one parent is
possible and it would be shown like these:

This way, diff-files can make use of it. Also implement the
full suite of what diff_flush_raw() supports just for
consistency. With this, 'diff-tree -c -r --name-status' would
show what is expected.
There is no way to get the historical output (useful for
debugging and low-level Plumbing work) anymore, so tentatively
it makes '-m' to mean "do not combine and show individual diffs
with parents".
diff-files matches diff-tree to produce raw output for -c. For
textual combined diff, use -p -c.

This is needed to make "diff-tree -c -M" to work semi-sensibly.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
NOTE! This makes "-c" be the default, which effectively means that merges
are never ignored any more, and "-m" is a no-op. So it changes semantics.
I would also like to make "--cc" the default if you do patches, but didn't
actually do that.
The raw output format is not wonderfully pretty, but it's distinguishable
from a "normal patch" in that a normal patch with just one parent has just
one colon at the beginning, while a multi-parent raw diff has <n> colons
for <n> parents.
So now, in the kernel, when you do
git-diff-tree cce0cac125623f9b68f25dd1350f6d616220a8dd
(to see the manual ARM merge that had a conflict in arch/arm/Kconfig), you
get
cce0cac125623f9b68f25dd1350f6d616220a8dd
::100644 100644 100644 4a63a8e2e45247a11c068c6ed66c6e7aba29ddd9 77eee38762d69d3de95ae45dd9278df9b8225e2c 2f61726d2f4b636f6e66696700dbf71a59dad287 arch/arm/Kconfig
ie you see two colons (two parents), then three modes (parent modes
followed by result mode), then three sha1s (parent sha1s followed by
result sha1).
Which is pretty close to the normal raw diff output.
Cool/stupid exercise:
$ git-whatchanged | grep '^::' | cut -f2- | sort |
uniq -c | sort -n | less -S
will show which files have needed the most file-level merge conflict
resolution. Useful? Probably not. But kind of interesting.

This updates the output format to make administrative lines more

The "index" line shows blob object names from each parents

resulting blob.
The hunk header line begins with N+1 '@' characters for N-way
diff, the line number L of the first line in the hunk and line
count C from the parent in "-L,C" format for each parents and
then the line number of the first line in the hunk and line
count from the resulting file in "+L,C" format, and finally
N+1 '@' characters (earlier versions had the line numbers from

Earlier logic was discarding hunks that has difference from only

Santi Bejar points out that a hunk that changes from all the

Merge fixes up to GIT 1.1.3
diff --combined describe.c

- static void describe(struct commit *cmit, int last_one)
++ static void describe(char *arg, int last_one)
{
+ unsigned char sha1[20];
+ struct commit *cmit;
There are a few things to note about this feature:
- The '-c' option implies '-p'. It also implies '-m' halfway
in the sense that "interesting" merges are shown, but not all
merges.
- When a blob matches one of the parents, we do not show a diff
for that path at all. For a merge commit, this option shows
paths with real file-level merge (aka "interesting things").
- As a concequence of the above, an "uninteresting" merge is
not shown at all. You can use '-m' in addition to '-c' to
show the commit log for such a merge, but there will be no
combined diff output.
- Unlike "gitk", the output is monochrome.
A '-' character in the nth column means the line is from the nth
parent and does not appear in the merge result (i.e. removed
from that parent's version).
A '+' character in the nth column means the line appears in the
merge result, and the nth parent does not have that line
(i.e. added by the merge itself or inherited from another
parent).
The above example output shows that the function signature was
changed from either parents (hence two "-" lines and a "++"
line), and "unsigned char sha1[20]", prefixed by a " +", was
inherited from the first parent.
The code as sent to the list was buggy in few corner cases,
which I have fixed since then.
It does not bother to keep track of and show the line numbers
from parent commits, which it probably should.
