I have been working on the builtin difftool for almost two weeks, for two reasons: 1. Perl is really not native on Windows. Not only is there a performance penalty to be paid just for running Perl scripts, we also have to deal with the fact that users may have different Perl installations, with different options, and some other Perl installation may decide to set PERL5LIB globally, wreaking havoc with Git for Windows' Perl (which we have to use because almost all other Perl distributions lack the Subversion bindings we need for `git svn`). 2. Perl makes for a rather large reason that Git for Windows' installer weighs in with >30MB. While one Perl script less does not relieve us of that burden, it is one step in the right direction. This patch serves two purposes: to ask for reviews, and to show what I plan to release as part of Git for Windows v2.11.0 (which is due this coming Wednesday, if Git v2.11.0 is released on Tuesday, as planned). Changes since v2: - adjusted the config setting's name according to Junio's concerns - fixed launching difftool in a subdirectory - fixed dir-diff mode when there are no changes (it did not exit early but tried to diff two empty directories) Johannes Schindelin (2): difftool: add a skeleton for the upcoming builtin difftool: implement the functionality in the builtin .gitignore | 1 + Makefile | 3 +- builtin.h | 1 + builtin/difftool.c | 731 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ git-difftool.perl => git-legacy-difftool.perl | 0 git.c | 6 + t/t7800-difftool.sh | 2 + 7 files changed, 743 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 builtin/difftool.c rename git-difftool.perl => git-legacy-difftool.perl (100%) base-commit: e2b2d6a172b76d44cb7b1ddb12ea5bfac9613a44 Published-As: https://github.com/dscho/git/releases/tag/builtin-difftool-v3 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/dscho/git builtin-difftool-v3 Interdiff vs v2: diff --git a/builtin/difftool.c b/builtin/difftool.c index f845879..3480920 100644 --- a/builtin/difftool.c +++ b/builtin/difftool.c @@ -13,17 +13,16 @@ */ #include "cache.h" #include "builtin.h" -#include "parse-options.h" #include "run-command.h" +#include "exec_cmd.h" +#include "parse-options.h" #include "argv-array.h" #include "strbuf.h" #include "lockfile.h" #include "dir.h" -#include "exec_cmd.h" static char *diff_gui_tool;
