Linus Torvalds 1571586648 git log: support "auto" decorations
This works kind of like "--color=auto" - add decorations for interactive
use, but do not change defaults when scripting or when piping the output
to anything but a terminal.

You can use either

    [log]
         decorate=auto

in the git config files, or the "--decorate=auto" command line option to
choose this behavior.

Jeremiah Mahler 7022650f61 format-patch: add "--signature-file=<file>" option
Add an option to format-patch for reading a signature from a file.

  $ git format-patch -1 --signature-file=$HOME/.signature

The config variable `format.signaturefile` can also be used to make
this the default.

  $ git config format.signaturefile $HOME/.signature

  $ git format-patch -1

Jeff King c6076e2b4a format-patch: make newline after signature conditional
When we print an email signature, we print the divider
"-- \n", then the signature string, then two newlines.

Usually the signature is a one-liner (and the default is just the
git version), so the extra newline makes sense.  But one could
easily specify a multi-line signature, like this:

  git format-patch --signature='this is my long signature

  it has multiple lines
  ' ...

and it may end with its own newline, in which case we do not have
to add yet another one.

Jeff King dd63f169d9 move "--follow needs one pathspec" rule to diff_setup_done
Because of the way "--follow" is implemented, we must have
exactly one pathspec. "git log" enforces this restriction,
but other users of the revision traversal code do not. For
example, "git format-patch --follow" will segfault during
try_to_follow_renames, as we have no pathspecs at all.

We can push this check down into diff_setup_done, which is
probably a better place anyway. It is the diff code that
introduces this restriction, so other parts of the code
should not need to care themselves.

Christian Couder 5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '
        s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;
        s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g;
        s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g;
        s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g;
      '

on the result of preparatory changes in this series.

Stefan Beller b7df098c6d log, format-patch: parsing uses OPT__QUIET
This patch allows users to use the short form -q on
log and format-patch, which was non possible before.

Also the documentation of format-patch mentions -q now.

The documentation of log doesn't even talk about --quiet, so I'll leave
that for more experienced git contributors. ;)
It doesn't seem to change the default behavior, but in combination
with --stat for example it suppresses the actual stats.
however the only relevant code in log is
	if (quiet)
		rev->diffopt.output_format |= DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT;

This task emerged from b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27). All occurrences of the respective variables have
been reviewed and none of them relied on the counting up mechanism,
but all of them were using the variable as a true boolean.

Stefan Beller 4741edd549 Remove deprecated OPTION_BOOLEAN for parsing arguments
As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.

The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

Jeff King a90804752f teach format-patch to place other authors into in-body "From"
Format-patch generates emails with the "From" address set to the
author of each patch. If you are going to send the emails, however,
you would want to replace the author identity with yours (if they
are not the same), and bump the author identity to an in-body
header.

Normally this is handled by git-send-email, which does the
transformation before sending out the emails. However, some
workflows may not use send-email (e.g., imap-send, or a custom
script which feeds the mbox to a non-git MUA). They could each
implement this feature themselves, but getting it right is
non-trivial (one must canonicalize the identities by reversing any
RFC2047 encoding or RFC822 quoting of the headers, which has caused
many bugs in send-email over the years).

This patch takes a different approach: it teaches format-patch a
"--from" option which handles the ident check and in-body header
while it is writing out the email.  It's much simpler to do at this
level (because we haven't done any quoting yet), and any workflow
based on format-patch can easily turn it on.

Junio C Hamano 534f0e0996 Merge branch 'jc/topo-author-date-sort'

  toposort: rename "lifo" field
2013-07-01 12:41:23 -07:00
Junio C Hamano 08f704f294 toposort: rename "lifo" field
The primary invariant of sort_in_topological_order() is that a
parent commit is not emitted until all children of it are.  When
traversing a forked history like this with "git log C E":

    A----B----C
     \
      D----E

we ensure that A is emitted after all of B, C, D, and E are done, B
has to wait until C is done, and D has to wait until E is done.

In some applications, however, we would further want to control how
these child commits B, C, D and E on two parallel ancestry chains
are shown.

Most of the time, we would want to see C and B emitted together, and
then E and D, and finally A (i.e. the --topo-order output).  The
"lifo" parameter of the sort_in_topological_order() function is used
to control this behaviour.  We start the traversal by knowing two
commits, C and E.  While keeping in mind that we also need to
inspect E later, we pick C first to inspect, and we notice and
record that B needs to be inspected.  By structuring the "work to be
done" set as a LIFO stack, we ensure that B is inspected next,
before other in-flight commits we had known that we will need to
inspect, e.g. E.

When showing in --date-order, we would want to see commits ordered
by timestamps, i.e. show C, E, B and D in this order before showing
A, possibly mixing commits from two parallel histories together.
When "lifo" parameter is set to false, the function keeps the "work
to be done" set sorted in the date order to realize this semantics.
After inspecting C, we add B to the "work to be done" set, but the
next commit we inspect from the set is E which is newer than B.

The name "lifo", however, is too strongly tied to the way how the
function implements its behaviour, and does not describe what the
behaviour _means_.

Replace this field with an enum rev_sort_order, with two possible
values: REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER and REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE, and
update the existing code.  The mechanical replacement rule is:

  "lifo == 0" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE"
  "lifo == 1" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER"

Michael J Gruber 083b993109 show: honor --textconv for blobs
Currently, "diff" and "cat-file" for blobs honor "--textconv" options
(with the former defaulting to "--textconv" and the latter to
"--no-textconv") whereas "show" does not honor this option, even though
it takes diff options.

Make "show" on blobs honor "--textconv" when it is asked.  The default
is not to apply textconv, which is in line with what "cat-file" does.

Junio C Hamano 6c374008b1 diff_opt: track whether flags have been set explicitly
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.

While we are at it, since we know there's nothing to generate, exit
sooner in all cases, like --cover-letter currently does.

Also, if there's nothing to generate and cover-letter is specified, a
different code-path might be triggered that is not currently covered in

Thomas Rast 12da1d1f6f Implement line-history search (git log -L)
This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split
it into smaller, easier to understand routines.

The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a
series of line ranges as intervals [a,b).  This is used in two
contexts:

* A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through
  history).
* To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges.

The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff().  It processes the
diff between a commit C and some parent P.  It determines which diff
hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new
ranges for P.

The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order
from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs.  At
branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching.  We will
find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them
TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting).
Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits.

This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery.  This
currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other
simplifications and options to be used.

Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain.  Ideally we
would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features
like word diff.  However, that will require some major reworking of
the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff
for now.

As this was a GSoC project, and has quite some history by now, many
people have helped.  In no particular order, thanks go to

Junio C Hamano 3a2ce79981 Merge branch 'nd/maint-branch-desc-doc'
Teach various forms of "format-patch" command line to identify what
branch the patches are taken from, so that the branch description
is picked up in more cases.

* nd/maint-branch-desc-doc:
  format-patch: pick up branch description when no ref is specified
  format-patch: pick up correct branch name from symbolic ref
  t4014: a few more tests on cover letter using branch description
  branch: delete branch description if it's empty
  config.txt: a few lines about branch.<name>.description

Junio C Hamano 7952ea66e7 format-patch: give --reroll-count a short synonym -v
Accept "-v" as a synonym to "--reroll-count", so that users can say
"git format-patch -v4 master", instead of having to fully spell it
out as "git format-patch --reroll-count=4 master".

As I do not think of a reason why users would want to tell the
command to be "verbose", I think this should be OK.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 5ee29aefac format-patch: pick up branch description when no ref is specified
We only try to get branch name in "format-patch origin" case or
similar and not "format-patch -22" where HEAD is automatically
added. Without correct branch name, branch description cannot be
added. Make sure we always get branch name.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 20b630aae9 format-patch: pick up correct branch name from symbolic ref
find_branch_name() assumes to take refs/heads/<branch>. But we also
have symbolic refs, such as HEAD, that can point to a valid branch in
refs/heads and do not follow refs/heads/<branch> syntax. Remove the
assumption and apply normal ref resolution. After all it would be
confusing if rev machinery resolves a ref in one way and
find_branch_name() another.

Junio C Hamano 5fe10fe80a format-patch: add --reroll-count=$N option
The --reroll-count=$N option, when given a positive integer:

 - Adds " v$N" to the subject prefix specified.  As the default
   subject prefix string is "PATCH", --reroll-count=2 makes it
   "PATCH v2".

 - Prefixes "v$N-" to the names used for output files.  The cover
   letter, whose name is usually 0000-cover-letter.patch, becomes
   v2-0000-cover-letter.patch when given --reroll-count=2.

This allows users to use the same --output-directory for multiple
iterations of the same series, without letting the output for a
newer round overwrite output files from the earlier rounds.  The
user can incorporate materials from earlier rounds to update the
newly minted iteration, and use "send-email v2-*.patch" to send out
the patches belonging to the second iteration easily.

Junio C Hamano d28b5d47ab get_patch_filename(): split into two functions
The function switched between two operating modes depending on the
NULL-ness of its two parameters, as a hacky way to share small part
of implementation, sacrificing cleanliness of the API.

Implement "fmt_output_subject()" function that takes a subject
string and gives the name for the output file, and on top of it,
implement "fmt_output_commit()" function that takes a commit and
gives the name for the output file.

Junio C Hamano 38ec23ac89 get_patch_filename(): drop "just-numbers" hack
The function chooses from three operating modes (format using the
subject, the commit, or just number) based on NULL-ness of two of
its parameters, which is an ugly hack for sharing only a bit of
code.

Separate out the "just numbers" part out to the callers.

Junio C Hamano 021f2f4c1a get_patch_filename(): simplify function signature
Most functions that emit to a strbuf take the strbuf as their first
parameter; make this function follow suit.

The serial number of the patch being emitted (nr) and suffix used
for patch filename (suffix) are both recorded in rev_info; drop
these separate parameters and pass the rev_info directly.
