2017-11-21xdiff: show non-empty lines before functions with -WRené Scharfe
Non-empty lines before a function definition are most likely comments for that function and thus relevant. Include them in function context. Such a non-empty line might also belong to the preceeding function if there is no separating blank line. Stop extending the context upwards also at the next function line to make sure only one extra function body is shown at most.

2017-11-21t4051: add test for comments preceding function linesRené Scharfe
When showing function context it would be helpful to show comments immediately before declarations, as they are most likely relevant. Add a test for that, but without specifying the choice of lines too rigidly in the test---we may want to stop before and not include "/*" in the future, for example.

2017-05-09diff: enable indent heuristic by defaultStefan Beller
The feature was included in v2.11 (released 2016-11-29) and we got no negative feedback. Quite the opposite, all feedback we got was positive. Turn it on by default. Users who dislike the feature can turn it off by setting diff.indentHeuristic (which also configures plumbing commands, see prior patches). The change to t/t4051-diff-function-context.sh is needed because the heuristic shifts the changed hunk in the patch. To get the same result regardless of the heuristic configuration, we modify the test file differently: We insert a completely new line after line 2, instead of simply duplicating it.

2016-09-14xdiff: fix merging of hunks with -W context and -u contextRené Scharfe
If the function context for a hunk (with -W) reaches the beginning of the next hunk then we need to merge these two -- otherwise we'd show some lines twice, which looks strange and even confuses git apply. We already do this checking and merging in xdl_emit_diff(), but forget to consider regular context (with -u or -U). Fix that by merging hunks already if function context of the first one touches or overlaps regular context of the second one.

2016-06-09xdiff: fix merging of appended hunk with -WRené Scharfe
When -W is given we search the lines between the end of the current context and the next change for a function line. If there is none then we merge those two hunks as they must be part of the same function. If the next change is an appended chunk we abort the search early in get_func_line(), however, because its line number is out of range. Fix that by searching from the end of the pre-image in that case instead.

2016-05-31xdiff: don't trim common tail with -WRené Scharfe
The function trim_common_tail() exits early if context lines are requested. If -U0 and -W are specified together then it can still trim context lines that might belong to a changed function. As a result that function is shown incompletely. Fix that by calling trim_common_tail() only if no function context or fixed context is requested. The parameter ctx is no longer needed now; remove it. While at it fix an outdated comment as well. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-05-31xdiff: -W: don't include common trailing empty lines in contextRené Scharfe
Empty lines between functions are shown by diff -W, as it considers them to be part of the function preceding them. They are not interesting in most languages. The previous patch stopped showing them in the special case of a function added at the end of a file. Stop extending context to those empty lines by skipping back over them from the start of the next function.

2016-05-31xdiff: ignore empty lines before added functions with -WRené Scharfe
If a new function and a preceding empty line is appended, diff -W shows the previous function in full in order to provide context for that empty line. In most languages empty lines between sections are not interesting in and off themselves and showing a whole extra function for them is not what we want. Skip empty lines when checking of the appended chunk starts with a function line, thereby avoiding to extend the context just for them.

2016-05-31xdiff: handle appended chunks better with -WRené Scharfe
If lines are added at the end of a file, diff -W shows the whole file. That's because get_func_line() only considers the pre-image and gives up if it sees a record index beyond its end. Consider the post-image as well to see if the added lines already make up a full function. If it doesn't then search for the previous function line by starting from the bottom of the pre-image, thereby avoiding to confuse get_func_line(). Reuse the existing label called "again", as it's exactly where we need to jump to when we're done handling the pre-context, but rename it to "post_context_calculation" in order to document its new purpose better.

2016-05-31t4051: rewrite, add more testsRené Scharfe
Remove the tests that checked against a fixed result and replace them with more focused checks of desired properties of the created diffs. That way we get more detailed and meaningful diagnostics. Store test file contents in files in a subdirectory in order to avoid cluttering the test script with them. Use tagged commits to store the changes to test diff -W against instead of using changes to the worktree. Use the worktree instead to try and apply the generated patch in order to validate it. Document unwanted features: trailing empty lines, too much context for appended functions, insufficient context at the end with -U0.

2011-10-10diff: add option to show whole functions as contextRené Scharfe
Add the option -W/--function-context to git diff. It is similar to the same option of git grep and expands the context of change hunks so that the whole surrounding function is shown. This "natural" context can allow changes to be understood better. Note: GNU patch doesn't like diffs generated with the new option; it seems to expect context lines to be the same before and after changes. git apply doesn't complain. This implementation has the same shortcoming as the one in grep, namely that there is no way to explicitly find the end of a function. That means that a few lines of extra context are shown, right up to the next recognized function begins. It's already useful in its current form, though. The function get_func_line() in xdiff/xemit.c is extended to work forward as well as backward to find post-context as well as pre-context. It returns the position of the first found matching line. The func_line parameter is made optional, as we don't need it for -W. The enhanced function is then used in xdl_emit_diff() to extend the context as needed. If the added context overlaps with the next change, it is merged into the current hunk. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
