2005-04-28[PATCH] diff-tree-helper: do not report unmerged path outside specification.Junio C Hamano
My bad. diff-tree-helper reports all unmerged paths even when the command line specifies to filter the paths. This patch fixes it. Also reverse-diff option was left out during the last round, which this patch restores as well. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-27[PATCH] Teach diff-tree-helper to handle unmerged paths.Junio C Hamano
This teaches diff-tree-helper to call diff_unmerge() so that it can report unmerged paths to GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF, instead of consuming it on its own. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-27[PATCH] diff-cache/tree compatible output for show-diff (take 2).Junio C Hamano
This makes diff-tree-helper handle ("warn about") unmerged path entries U <path> <record-terminator> This is emitted once per unmerged path, no matter how many unmerged stages there are. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-04-26[PATCH] Diff-tree-helper take two.Junio C Hamano
This reworks the diff-tree-helper and show-diff to further make external diff command interface simpler. These commands now honor GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF environment variable which can point at an arbitrary program that takes 7 parameters: name file1 file1-sha1 file1-mode file2 file2-sha1 file2-mode The parameters for an external diff command are as follows: name this invocation of the command is to emit diff for the named cache/tree entry. file1 pathname that holds the contents of the first file. This can be a file inside the working tree, or a temporary file created from the blob object, or /dev/null. The command should not attempt to unlink it -- the temporary is unlinked by the caller. file1-sha1 sha1 hash if file1 is a blob object, or "." otherwise. file1-mode mode bits for file1, or "." for a deleted file. If GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF environment variable is not set, the default is to invoke diff with the set of parameters old show-diff used to use. This built-in implementation honors the GIT_DIFF_CMD and GIT_DIFF_OPTS environment variables as before.

2005-04-26[PATCH] Introduce diff-tree-helper.Junio C Hamano
This patch introduces a new program, diff-tree-helper. It reads output from diff-cache and diff-tree, and produces a patch file. The diff format customization can be done the same way the show-diff uses; the same external diff interface introduced by the previous patch to drive diff from show-diff is used so this is not surprising. It is used like the following examples: $ diff-cache --cached -z <tree> | diff-tree-helper -z -R paths... $ diff-tree -r -z <tree1> <tree2> | diff-tree-helper -z paths... - As usual, the use of the -z flag is recommended in the script to pass NUL-terminated filenames through the pipe between commands. - The -R flag is used to generate reverse diff. It does not matter for diff-tree case, but it is sometimes useful to get a patch in the desired direction out of diff-cache. - The paths parameters are used to restrict the paths that appears in the output. Again this is useful to use with diff-cache, which, unlike diff-tree, does not take such paths restriction parameters.
