2009-01-31Fix 'git diff --no-index' with a non-existing symlink targetJohannes Schindelin
When trying to find out mode changes, we should not access the symlink targets using stat(); instead we use lstat() so that the diff does not fail trying to find a non-existing symlink target.

2009-01-07diff --no-index -q: fix endless loopThomas Rast
We forgot to move to the next argument when parsing -q, getting stuck in an endless loop. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-01-07diff --no-index: test for pager after option parsingThomas Rast
We need to parse options before we can see if --exit-code was provided. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-01-07diff: accept -- when using --no-indexThomas Rast
Accept -- as an "end of options" marker even when using --no-index. Previously, the -- triggered a "normal" index/tree diff and subsequently failed because of the unrecognized (in that mode) --no-index. Note that the second loop can treat '--' as a normal option, because the preceding checks ensure it is the third-to-last argument. While at it, fix the parsing of "-q" option in --no-index mode as well. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-08-31diff: vary default prefix depending on what are comparedJunio C Hamano
With a new configuration "diff.mnemonicprefix", "git diff" shows the differences between various combinations of preimage and postimage trees with prefixes different from the standard "a/" and "b/". Hopefully this will make the distinction stand out for some people. "git diff" compares the (i)ndex and the (w)ork tree; "git diff HEAD" compares a (c)ommit and the (w)ork tree; "git diff --cached" compares a (c)ommit and the (i)ndex; "git-diff HEAD:file1 file2" compares an (o)bject and a (w)ork tree entity; "git diff --no-index a b" compares two non-git things (1) and (2). Because these mnemonics now have meanings, they are swapped when reverse diff is in effect and this feature is enabled. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-07-22Rename path_list to string_listJohannes Schindelin
The name path_list was correct for the first usage of that data structure, but it really is a general-purpose string list. $ perl -i -pe 's/path-list/string-list/g' $(git grep -l path-list) $ perl -i -pe 's/path_list/string_list/g' $(git grep -l path_list) $ git mv path-list.h string-list.h $ git mv path-list.c string-list.c $ perl -i -pe 's/has_path/has_string/g' $(git grep -l has_path) $ perl -i -pe 's/path/string/g' string-list.[ch] $ git mv Documentation/technical/api-path-list.txt \ Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt $ perl -i -pe 's/strdup_paths/strdup_strings/g' $(git grep -l strdup_paths) ... and then fix all users of string-list to access the member "string" instead of "path". Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt needed some rewrapping, too. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-05-27git-diff: allow --no-index semantics a bit moreJunio C Hamano
Even when inside a git work tree, if two paths are given and at least one is clearly outside the work tree, it cannot be a request to diff a tracked path anyway; allow such an invocation to use --no-index semantics. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-05-24"git diff": do not ignore index without --no-indexJunio C Hamano
Even if "foo" and/or "bar" does not exist in index, "git diff foo bar" should not change behaviour drastically from "git diff foo bar baz" or "git diff foo". A feature that "sometimes works and is handy" is an unreliable cute hack. "git diff foo bar" outside a git repository continues to work as a more colourful alternative to "diff -u" as before.
