[PATCH 00/16] column output (v2) and git-ls

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

 



I have fixed most of things Jonathan mentioned in the previous series,
but that's not the focus. I resend column output series because it's
required for git-ls patches, a more interesting command.

Column output patches:

  Move term_columns() to pager.c and save terminal width before pager
  Add display_columns() to display in column layout
  display_columns: add COL_MODE_{COLUMN,ROW} mode
  display_columns: add COL_DENSE to do unequal column layout
  Add test-column for testing column layout
  Add core.column
  parseopt: OPT_COLUMN to set struct column_layout.mode
  help: reuse display_columns() for help -a
  tag: add --column
  branch: add --column

Changes:

 - struct column_layout is gone.
 - core.column and --column takes a list of options separated by
   space/comma, so you can customize your display.

Remaining problems:

 - perhaps column.<cmd> config is better than core.column.
 - ansi_length() might misunderstand utf-8/ansi escapes
 - the heuristics to make dense layout
 - --column can also take auto/never/always
 - tests

git-ls patches:

  Add ls command
  ls: add --column
  ls: add --recursive and turn default to non-recursive mode
  ls: immitate UNIX ls output style
  ls: strip common directory prefix from output
  ls: color output

In short, git-ls is supposed to work as close as possible to UNIX ls,
while still takes advantages of git-ls-files.

I split this into many patches for easier discussion. The code itself
is still WIP-quality. The design may not be 100% right.
Oh and I'm not sure how to do the color part right. Reading $LS_COLORS
is scary and does not really fit Git.
