Yep, thanks. In case you are interested: You probably guessed it, it was left for a later clean-up. I worked a bit over the last weeks on getting Git to build in Visual Studio, to be able to benefit from its quite nice features (I was always a fan of Visual Studio, long before I started working at Microsoft). I used the conversion of the difftool as an excuse to make use of this myself: I did the entire conversion in Visual Studio, reverting to the old, tedious command-line driven workflow to fix the bugs identified by t7800-difftool.sh. > > +static int run_dir_diff(const char *extcmd, int symlinks, > > + int argc, const char **argv) > > +{ > > + char tmpdir[PATH_MAX]; > > + struct strbuf info = STRBUF_INIT, lpath = STRBUF_INIT; > > + struct strbuf rpath = STRBUF_INIT, buf = STRBUF_INIT; > > + struct strbuf ldir = STRBUF_INIT, rdir = STRBUF_INIT; > > + struct strbuf wtdir = STRBUF_INIT; > > + size_t ldir_len, rdir_len, wtdir_len; > > + struct cache_entry *ce = xcalloc(1, sizeof(ce) + PATH_MAX + 1); > > + const char *workdir, *tmp; > > + int ret = 0, i; > > + FILE *fp; > > + struct hashmap working_tree_dups, submodules, symlinks2; > > + struct hashmap_iter iter; > > + struct pair_entry *entry; > > + enum object_type type; > > + unsigned long size; > > + struct index_state wtindex; > > + struct checkout lstate, rstate; > > + int rc, flags = RUN_GIT_CMD, err = 0; > > + struct child_process child = CHILD_PROCESS_INIT; > > + const char *helper_argv[] = { "difftool--helper", NULL, NULL, NULL }; > > + struct hashmap wt_modified, tmp_modified; > > + int indices_loaded = 0; > > + > > + setup_work_tree(); > > + workdir = get_git_work_tree(); > > + > > + /* Setup temp directories */ > > + tmp = getenv("TMPDIR"); > > + sprintf(tmpdir, "%s/git-difftool.XXXXXX", tmp ? tmp : "/tmp"); > > Maybe snprintf instead? > > getenv() won't return anything longer than PATH_MAX for most > users, but users are weird.

Ah, of course! I stupidly imitated other `mkdir()` calls elsewhere, but they refer to directories within the Git worktree... > > + /* > > + * In directory diff mode, 'git-difftool--helper' is called once > > + * to compare the a / b directories.In file diff mode, 'git diff' > > + * will invoke a separate instance of 'git-difftool--helper' for > > + * each file that changed. > > + */ > > Missing space after "." in the comment above. Yep. It was two spaces and I deleted one too many (we are so way past actual print, where the two spaces may have made sense...). > > + if (dir_diff) > > + return run_dir_diff(extcmd, symlinks, argc, argv); > > + return run_file_diff(prompt, argc, argv); > > +} > > diff --git a/git.c b/git.c > > index efa1059..eaa0f67 100644 > > --- a/git.c > > +++ b/git.c > > @@ -424,6 +424,7 @@ static struct cmd_struct commands[] = { > > { "diff-files", cmd_diff_files, RUN_SETUP | NEED_WORK_TREE }, > > { "diff-index", cmd_diff_index, RUN_SETUP }, > > { "diff-tree", cmd_diff_tree, RUN_SETUP }, > > + { "builtin-difftool", cmd_builtin_difftool, RUN_SETUP | NEED_WORK_TREE }, > > { "fast-export", cmd_fast_export, RUN_SETUP }, > > { "fetch", cmd_fetch, RUN_SETUP }, > > { "fetch-pack", cmd_fetch_pack, RUN_SETUP }, > > This isn't alphabetical anymore, but it actually is if you > consider that the final plan is to change "builtin-difftool" to > "difftool".

Yes! For the record, this is a left-over from an impatient attempt at avoiding problems with `make` overwriting the Perl version of `git difftool` by the builtin version; I had originally assumed that a list of builtins was generated from parsing git.c or builtin.h, but it turns out that the BUILTIN_OBJS are actually responsible, i.e. the file name. Fixed. Thank you for your review! Dscho
