[PATCH] combine-diff.c: Fix output when changes are exactly 3 lines apart

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

 



When a deletion is followed by exactly 3 (or whatever the number of
context lines) unchanged lines, followed by another change, the combined
diff output would hide the first deletion, resulting in a malformed
diff.

This happened because the 3 lines before each change are painted
interesting, but also marked as no_pre_delete to prevent showing deletes
that were previously marked as uninteresting. This behaviour was
introduced in c86fbe53 (diff -c/--cc: do not include uninteresting
deletion before leading context). However, as a side effect, this could
also mark deletes that were already interesting as no_pre_delete. This
would happen only if the delete was exactly 3 lines away from the next
change, since lines farther away would not be touched by the "paint
three lines before the change" code and lines closer would be painted
by the "merge two adjacent hunks" code instead, which does not set the
no_pre_delete flag.

This commit fixes this problem by only setting the no_pre_delete flag
for changes that were previously uninteresting.
