[PATCH v6.1 4/8] Implement line-history search (git log -L)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Bo Yang <struggleyb.nku@xxxxxxxxx>

'struct diff_line_range' is the main data structure to keep
track of the line ranges we are currently interested in. The
user starts digging from a line range, and after examining the
diff that affects that range by a commit, we can find a new
range that corresponds to this range. So, we will associate this
new range with the commit's parent commit.

There is one 'diff_line_range' for each file, and there are
multiple 'struct line_range' in each 'diff_line_range'. In this way,
we support multiple ranges.

Within 'struct line_range', there are multiple 'struct print_range'
which represent a diff hunk.

When going from a commit to its parents, we map the "interesting"
range of lines according to the change made.  For non-merge commits,
we just run map_range on the ranges, which works as follows:

1. Run diffcore_std to find out the pre/postimage for each file.
2. Run xdi_diff_hunks on each interesting set of pre/postimages.
3. The map_range_cb callback is invoked for each hunk by the diff
   engine, and we use it to calculate the pre-image range from the
   post-image range in the function map_lines.

For merge commits, we run map_range once for every parent.  After that
we use a take_range pass to eliminate all ranges that are identical.
If any ranges remain after that, then the merge is considered
non-trivial.

The algorithm that maps lines from post-image to pre-image is in the
function map_lines.

To correctly track the line ranges over several branches, we must make
sure that we have processed all children before reaching the commit
itself.  So we let the revision machinery topo-order the commits
before doing anything.
