When the external diff reports an error, we try to clean up
and die. However, we can make this process a bit simpler:
1. We do not need to bother freeing memory, since we are
about to exit. Nor do we need to clean up our
tempfiles, since the atexit() handler will do it for
us. So we can die as soon as we see the error.
3. We can just call die() rather than fprintf/exit. This
does technically change our exit code, but the exit
code of "1" is not meaningful here. In fact, it is
probably wrong, since "1" from diff usually means
"completed successfully, but there were differences".
And while we're there, we can mark the error message for
translation, and drop the full stop at the end to make it
more like our other messages.

We currently generate the command-line for the external
command using a fixed-length array of size 10. But if there
is a rename, we actually need 11 elements (10 items, plus a
NULL), and end up writing a random NULL onto the stack.
Rather than bump the limit, let's just use an argv_array, which
makes this sort of error impossible.

"git diff --external-diff" incorrectly fed the submodule directory
in the working tree to the external diff driver when it knew it is
the same as one of the versions being compared.
* tr/diff-submodule-no-reuse-worktree:
diff: do not reuse_worktree_file for submodules
"git diff --quiet -- pathspec1 pathspec2" sometimes did not return
correct status value.
* nd/diff-quiet-stat-dirty:
diff: do not quit early on stat-dirty files
diff.c: move diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch core logic out for reuse later
When QUICK is set (i.e. with --quiet) we try to do as little work as
possible, stopping after seeing the first change. stat-dirty is
considered a "change" but it may turn out not, if no actual content is
changed. The actual content test is performed too late in the process
and the shortcut may be taken prematurely, leading to incorrect return
code.
Assume we do "git diff --quiet". If we have a stat-dirty file "a" and
a really dirty file "b". We break the loop in run_diff_files() and
stop after "a" because we have got a "change". Later in
diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch() we find out "a" is actually not
changed. But there's nothing else in the diff queue, we incorrectly
declare "no change", ignoring the fact that "b" is changed.
This also happens to "git diff --quiet HEAD" when it hits
diff_can_quit_early() in oneway_diff().
This patch does the content test earlier in order to keep going if "a"
is unchanged. The test result is cached so that when
diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch() is done in the end, we spend no cycles on
re-testing "a".

The GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF calling code attempts to reuse existing worktree
files for the worktree side of diffs, for performance reasons.
However, that code also tries to do the same with submodules. This
results in calls to $GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF where the old-file is a file of
the form "Submodule commit $sha1", but the new-file is a directory in
the worktree.
Fix it by never reusing a worktree "file" in the submodule case.

The current GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF mechanism does not tell the number of
paths in the diff queue nor the current counter. To make this

- Export two new environment variables from run_external_diff() to

The line being changed is deep inside the function builtin_diff.
The variable name_b, which is used to evaluate the ternary expression
must evaluate to true at that position, hence the replacement with
just name_b.
The name_b variable only occurs a few times in that lengthy function:
As a parameter to the function itself:
static void builtin_diff(const char *name_a,
const char *name_b,
...
The next occurrences are at:
/* Never use a non-valid filename anywhere if at all possible */
name_a = DIFF_FILE_VALID(one) ? name_a : name_b;
name_b = DIFF_FILE_VALID(two) ? name_b : name_a;
a_one = quote_two(a_prefix, name_a + (*name_a == '/'));
b_two = quote_two(b_prefix, name_b + (*name_b == '/'));
In the last line of this block 'name_b' is dereferenced and compared
to '/'. This would crash if name_b was NULL. Hence in the following code
we can assume name_b being non-null.
The next occurrence is just as a function argument, which doesn't change
the memory, which name_b points to, so the assumption name_b being not
null still holds:
emit_rewrite_diff(name_a, name_b, one, two,
textconv_one, textconv_two, o);
The next occurrence would be the line of this patch. As name_b still must
be not null, we can remove the ternary operator.
Inside the emit_rewrite_diff function there is a also a line
ecbdata.ws_rule = whitespace_rule(name_b ? name_b : name_a);
which was also simplified as there is also a dereference before the
ternary operator.

The case of --binary deserves extra attention: the name may suggest that

In order to express "we do not care about deletions", we had to say
"--diff-filter=ACMRTXUB", giving all the possible change class
except for the one we do not want, "D".
This is cumbersome. As all the change classes are in uppercase,
allow their lowercase counterpart to selectively exclude the class
from the output. When such a negated change class is in the input,
start the filter option with the full bits set.
This would allow us to express the old "show-diff -q" with
"git diff-files --diff-filter=d".

I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is
- diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE
- name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED
- preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
builtin/update-index: obvious
- entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
*" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
builtin/checkout.c
- builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
CE_UPDATE
Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.
So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.
The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

The goal of the patch is to introduce the GNU diff
-B/--ignore-blank-lines as closely as possible. The short option is not
available because it's already used for "break-rewrites".
When this option is used, git-diff will not create hunks that simply
add or remove empty lines, but will still show empty lines
addition/suppression if they are close enough to "valuable" changes.
There are two differences between this option and GNU diff -B option:
- GNU diff doesn't have "--inter-hunk-context", so this must be handled
- The following sequence looks like a bug (context is displayed twice):
$ seq 5 >file1
$ cat <<EOF >file2
change

EOF
$ diff -u -B file1 file2

So here is a more thorough description of the option:
- real changes are interesting
- blank lines that are close enough (less than context size) to
interesting changes are considered interesting (recursive definition)
- "context" lines are used around each hunk of interesting changes
- If two hunks are separated by less than "inter-hunk-context", they
will be merged into one.
The implementation does the "interesting changes selection" in a single
pass.

The diff_opt infrastructure sets flags based on defaults and command
line options. It is impossible to tell whether a flag has been set
as a default or on explicit request. Update the structure so that
this detection is possible:
* Add an extra "opt->touched_flags" that keeps track of all the
fields that have been touched by DIFF_OPT_SET and DIFF_OPT_CLR.
* You may continue setting the default values to the flags, like
commands in the "log" family do in cmd_log_init_defaults(), but
after you finished setting the defaults, you clear the
touched_flags field;
* And then you let the usual callchain call diff_opt_parse(),
allowing the opt->flags be set or unset, while keeping track of
which bits the user touched;
* There is an optional callback "opt->set_default" that is called
at the very beginning to let you inspect touched_flags and update
opt->flags appropriately, before the remainder of the diffcore
machinery is set up, taking the opt->flags value into account.
