When running 'git diff --quiet <file1> <file2>', if file1 or file2 is outside the repository, it will exit(0) even if the files differ. It should exit(1) when they differ. Signed-off-by: Tim Henigan <tim.henigan@xxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2: - Implemented the fix in diff-no-index.c as suggested by Junio Hamano. The previous version affected the performance of all diff commands that used the '--quiet' option by forcing the code through the expensive (and in this case unneccesary) 'diff_flush_patch' code path. - Updated the test to use 'test_expect_code' as suggested by Jeff King. diff-no-index.c | 3 ++- t/t4035-diff-quiet.sh | 4 ++++ 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/diff-no-index.c b/diff-no-index.c index f0b0010..b935d2a 100644 --- a/diff-no-index.c +++ b/diff-no-index.c @@ -273,5 +273,6 @@ void diff_no_index(struct rev_info *revs, * The return code for --no-index imitates diff(1): * 0 = no changes, 1 = changes, else error */ - exit(revs->diffopt.found_changes); + int result = diff_result_code(&revs->diffopt, 0); + exit(result); } diff --git a/t/t4035-diff-quiet.sh b/t/t4035-diff-quiet.sh index cdb9202..0b83235 100755 --- a/t/t4035-diff-quiet.sh +++ b/t/t4035-diff-quiet.sh @@ -76,4 +77,8 @@ test_expect_success 'git diff-index --cached HEAD' ' } ' +test_expect_success 'git diff <tracked file> <file outside repo>' ' + test_expect_code 1 git diff --quiet c /dev/null +' + test_done -- 1.7.11.rc3.6.g894ec42.dirty -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
