dac03b5518 combine-diff: treat --dirstat like --stat
Currently "--cc --dirstat" will show nothing for a merge.  Like
--shortstat and --summary in the previous two patches, it probably makes
sense to treat it like we do --stat, and show a stat against the
first-parent.

This case is less obviously correct than for --shortstat and --summary,
as those are basically variants of --stat themselves. It's possible we
could develop a multi-parent combined dirstat format, in which case we
might regret defining this first-parent behavior. But the same could be
said for --stat, and in the 12+ years of it showing first-parent stats,
nobody has complained.

So showing the first-parent dirstat is at least _useful_, and if we
later develop a clever multi-parent stat format, we'd probably have to
deal with --stat anyway.

04b19fcafd combine-diff: treat --summary like --stat
Currently "--cc --summary" on a merge shows nothing. Since we show "--cc
--stat" as a stat against the first parent, and because --summary is
typically used in combination with --stat, it makes sense to treat them
both the same way.

Note that we have to tweak t4013's setup a bit to test this case, as the
existing merges do not have any --summary results against their first
parent. But since the merge at the tip of 'master' does add and remove
files with respect to the second parent, we can just make a reversed
doppelganger merge where the parents are swapped.

8290faa077 combine-diff: treat --shortstat like --stat
The --stat of a combined diff is defined as the first-parent stat,
going all the way back to 965f803c32 (combine-diff: show diffstat with
the first parent., 2006-04-17).

Naturally, we gave --numstat the same treatment in 74e2abe5b7 (diff
--numstat, 2006-10-12).

But --shortstat, which is really just the final line of --stat, does
nothing, which produces confusing results:

  $ git show --oneline --stat eab7584e37
  eab7584e37 Merge branch 'en/show-ref-doc-fix'

   Documentation/git-show-ref.txt | 2 +-
   1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)

  $ git show --oneline --shortstat eab7584e37
  eab7584e37 Merge branch 'en/show-ref-doc-fix'

  [nothing! We'd expect to see the "1 file changed..." line]

This patch teaches combine-diff to treats the two formats identically.

ddf88fa616 diff: add --compact-summary
Certain information is currently shown with --summary, but when used
in combination with --stat it's a bit hard to read since info of the
same file is in two places (--stat and --summary).

On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of
display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of
files.

--compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the
little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with
commit 0433d533f1:

   Documentation/merge-config.txt         |  4 +
   builtin/merge.c                        |  2 +
   ...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++
   t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh     | 45 ++++++++
   4 files changed, 132 insertions(+)

It helps both condensing information and saving some text
space. What's new in diffstat is:

- A new 0644 file is shown as (new)
- A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x)
- A new symlink is shown as (new +l)
- A deleted file is shown as (gone)
- A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x)
- A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x)

Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information
--summary provides. Rewrite percentage is not shown but it could be
added later, like R50% or C20%.

43d1948b7b diff: handle --no-abbrev in no-index case
There are two different places where the --no-abbrev option is parsed,
and two different places where SHA-1s are abbreviated. We normally parse
--no-abbrev with setup_revisions(), but in the no-index case, "git diff"
calls diff_opt_parse() directly, and diff_opt_parse() didn't handle
--no-abbrev until now. (It did handle --abbrev, however.) We normally
abbreviate SHA-1s with find_unique_abbrev(), but commit 4f03666 ("diff:
handle sha1 abbreviations outside of repository, 2016-10-20) recently
introduced a special case when you run "git diff" outside of a
repository.

setup_revisions() does also call diff_opt_parse(), but not for --abbrev
or --no-abbrev, which it handles itself. setup_revisions() sets
rev_info->abbrev, and later copies that to diff_options->abbrev. It
handles --no-abbrev by setting abbrev to zero. (This change doesn't
touch that.)

Setting abbrev to zero was broken in the outside-of-a-repository special
case, which until now resulted in a truly zero-length SHA-1, rather than
taking zero to mean do not abbreviate. The only way to trigger this bug,
however, was by running "git diff --raw" without either the --abbrev or
--no-abbrev options, because 1) without --raw it doesn't respect abbrev
(which is bizarre, but has been that way forever), 2) we silently clamp
--abbrev=0 to MINIMUM_ABBREV, and 3) --no-abbrev wasn't handled until
now.

The outside-of-a-repository case is one of three no-index cases. The
other two are when one of the files you're comparing is outside of the
repository you're in, and the --no-index option.

660e113ce1 graph: add support for --line-prefix on all graph-aware output
Add an extension to git-diff and git-log (and any other graph-aware
displayable output) such that "--line-prefix=<string>" will print the
additional line-prefix on every line of output.

To make this work, we have to fix a few bugs in the graph API that force
graph_show_commit_msg to be used only when you have a valid graph.
Additionally, we extend the default_diff_output_prefix handler to work
even when no graph is enabled.

This is somewhat of a hack on top of the graph API, but I think it
should be acceptable here.

This will be used by a future extension of submodule display which
displays the submodule diff as the actual diff between the pre and post
commit in the submodule project.

Add some tests for both git-log and git-diff to ensure that the prefix
is honored correctly.

76c61fbdba log: decorate HEAD with branch name under --decorate=full, too
The previous step to teach "log --decorate" to show "HEAD -> master"
instead of "HEAD, master" when showing the commit at the tip of the
'master' branch, when the 'master' branch is checked out, did not
work for "log --decorate=full".

The commands in the "log" family prepare commit decorations for all
refs upfront, and the actual string used in a decoration depends on
how load_ref_decorations() is called very early in the process.  By
default, "git log --decorate" stores names with common prefixes such
as "refs/heads" stripped; "git log --decorate=full" stores the full
refnames.

When the current_pointed_by_HEAD() function has to decide if "HEAD"
points at the branch a decoration describes, however, what was
passed to load_ref_decorations() to decide to strip (or keep) such a
common prefix is long lost.  This makes it impossible to reliably
tell if a decoration that stores "refs/heads/master", for example,
is the 'master' branch (under "--decorate" with prefix omitted) or
'refs/heads/master' branch (under "--decorate=full").

Keep what was passed to load_ref_decorations() in a global next to
the global variable name_decoration, and use that to decide how to
match what was read from "HEAD" and what is in a decoration.

51ff0f27bc log: decorate HEAD with branch name
Currently, log decorations do not indicate which branch is checked out
and whether HEAD is detached.

When branch foo is checked out, change the "HEAD, foo" part of the
decorations to "HEAD -> foo". This serves to indicate both ref
decorations (helped by the spacing) as well as their relationshsip.
As a consequence, "HEAD" without any " -> " denotes a detached HEAD now.

dc801e71a7 diff --stat: use less columns for change counts
Number of columns required for change counts is now computed based on
the maximum number of changed lines instead of being fixed. This means
that usually a few more columns will be available for the filenames
and the graph.

The graph width logic is also modified to include enough space for
"Bin XXX -> YYY bytes".

If changes to binary files are mixed with changes to text files,
change counts are padded to take at least three columns. And the other
way around, if change counts require more than three columns, then
"Bin"s are padded to align with the change count. This way, the +-
part starts in the same column as "XXX -> YYY" part for binary files.
This makes the graph easier to parse visually thanks to the empty
column. This mimics the layout of diff --stat before this change.

Tests and the tutorial are updated to reflect the new --stat output.
This means either the removal of extra padding and/or the addition of
up to three extra characters to truncated filenames. One test is added
to check the graph alignment when a binary file change and text file
change of more than 999 lines are committed together.

"git diff --stat" and "git apply --stat" now learn to print the line
"%d files changed, %d insertions(+), %d deletions(-)" in singular form

This matches how versions of "diffstat" that are not prehistoric produced

2ff3a80334 Teach --dirstat not to completely ignore rearranged lines within a file
Currently, the --dirstat analysis ignores when lines within a file are
rearranged, because the "damage" calculated by show_dirstat() is 0.
However, if the object name has changed, we already know that there is
some damage, and it is unintuitive to claim there is _no_ damage.

Teach show_dirstat() to assign a minimum amount of damage (== 1) to
entries for which the analysis otherwise yields zero damage, to still
represent that these files are changed, instead of saying that there
is no change.

Also, skip --dirstat analysis when the object names are the same (e.g. for
a pure file rename).

0133dab75d --dirstat-by-file: Make it faster and more correct
Currently, when using --dirstat-by-file, it first does the full --dirstat
analysis (using diffcore_count_changes()), and then resets 'damage' to 1,
if any damage was found by diffcore_count_changes().

But --dirstat-by-file is not interested in the file damage per se. It only
cares if the file changed at all. In that sense it only cares if the blob
object for a file has changed. We therefore only need to compare the
object names of each file pair in the diff queue and we can skip the
entire --dirstat analysis and simply set 'damage' to 1 for each entry
where the object name has changed.

This makes --dirstat-by-file faster, and also bypasses --dirstat's practice
of ignoring rearranged lines within a file.

The patch also contains an added testcase verifying that --dirstat-by-file
now detects changes that only rearrange lines within a file.

Hence "--max-count=10 -Sfoo" meant "examine the 10 first revisions, and

revisions changing the occurences of foo".

a2b7a3b3a9 diff: support --cached on unborn branches
"git diff --cached" (without revision) used to mean "git diff --cached
HEAD" (i.e. the user was too lazy to type HEAD). This "correctly"
failed when there was no commit yet. But was that correctness useful?

This patch changes the definition of what particular command means.
It is a request to show what _would_ be committed without further "git
add". The internal implementation is the same "git diff --cached HEAD"
when HEAD exists, but when there is no commit yet, it compares the index
with an empty tree object to achieve the desired result.

dea007fb4c diff: parse separate options like -S foo
Change the option parsing logic in revision.c to accept separate forms
like `-S foo' in addition to `-Sfoo'. The rest of git already accepted
this form, but revision.c still used its own option parsing.

Short options affected are -S<string>, -l<num> and -O<orderfile>, for
which an empty string wouldn't make sense, hence -<option> <arg> isn't
ambiguous.

This patch does not handle --stat-name-width and --stat-width, which are
special-cases where diff_long_opt do not apply. They are handled in a
separate patch to ease review.

6622d9c710 format-patch: Add a signature option (--signature)
By default, git uses the version string as the signature for all
patches output by format-patch. Many employers (mine included)
require the use of a signature on all outgoing mails. In a
format-patch | send-email workflow there isn't an easy way to modify
the signature without breaking the pipe and manually replacing the
version string with the signature required. Instead of doing all that
work, add an option (--signature) and a config variable
(format.signature) to replace the default git version signature when
formatting patches.

This does modify the original behavior of format-patch a bit. First
off the version string is now placed in the cover letter by default.
Secondly, once the configuration variable format.signature is added
to the .config file there is no way to revert back to the default
git version signature. Instead, specifying the --no-signature option
will remove the signature from the patches entirely.

b449005997 show -c: show patch text
Traditionally, "show" defaulted to "show --cc" (dense combined patch), but
asking for combined patch with "show -c" didn't turn the patch output
format on; the placement of this logic in setup_revisions() dates back to
cd2bdc5 (Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends,
2006-04-14).

This unfortunately cannot be done as a trivial change of "if dense
combined is asked, default to patch format" done in setup_revisions() to
"if any combined is asked, default to patch format", as "diff-tree -c"
needs to default to raw, while "diff-tree --cc" needs to default to patch,
and they share the codepath.  These command specific defaults are now
handled in the new "tweak" callback that can be customized by individual
command implementations.

log-related commit sha1 printing routines, and also change the
formatting of the 'Merge: parent1 parent2' line output via
pretty_print_commit().

e423ffd8a6 diff: accept -- when using --no-index
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.

a567fdcb01 format-patch: autonumber by default
format-patch is most commonly used for multiple patches at once when
sending a patchset, in which case we want to number the patches; on
the other hand, single patches are not usually expected to be
numbered.

In other words, the typical behavior expected from format-patch is the
one obtained by enabling autonumber, so we set it to be the default.

Users that want to disable numbering for a particular patchset can do
so with the existing -N command-line switch.  Users that want to
change the default behavior can use the format.numbering config key.

b75271d93a "git diff <tree>{3,}": do not reverse order of arguments
According to the message of commit 0fe7c1de16,
"git diff" with three or more trees expects the merged tree first followed by
the parents, in order.  However, this command reversed the order of its
arguments, resulting in confusing diffs.  A comment /* Again, the revs are all
reverse */ suggested there was a reason for this, but I can't figure out the
reason, so I removed the reversal of the arguments.  Test case included.

6b2fbaaffc format-patch: Produce better output with --inline or --attach
This patch makes two small changes to improve the output of --inline
and --attach.

The first is to write a newline preceding the boundary. This is needed because
MIME defines the encapsulation boundary as including the preceding CRLF (or in
this case, just LF), so we should be writing one. Without this, the last
newline in the pre-diff content is consumed instead.

The second change is to always write the line termination character
(default: newline) even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply to
improve the aesthetics of the resulting message. When using --inline an email
client should render the resulting message identically to the non-inline
version. And when using --attach this adds a blank line preceding the
attachment in the email, which is visually attractive.

0569e9b8ce "git diff": do not ignore index without --no-index
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.

304b5af64f Clean up "git log" format with DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT
This fixes an unnecessary empty line that we add to the log message when
we generate diffs, but don't actually end up printing any due to having
DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT set.

This can happen with pickaxe or with rename following. The reason is that
we normally add an empty line between the commit and the diff, but we do
that even for the case where we've then suppressed the actual printing of
the diff.

This also updates a couple of tests that assumed the extraneous empty
line would exist at the end of output.
