I see we're abbreviating the commit hashes later. We don't want ref names here, so "--decorate=no" makes sense as well. > + cp.out = -1; > + cp.no_stdin = 1; > + cp.git_cmd = 1; > + > + if (start_command(&cp)) > + return error_errno(_("could not start `log`")); > + in = fdopen(cp.out, "r"); > + if (!in) { > + error_errno(_("could not read `log` output")); > + finish_command(&cp); > + return -1; > + } > + > + while (strbuf_getline(&line, in) != EOF) { > + const char *p; > + > + if (skip_prefix(line.buf, "commit ", &p)) { > + if (util) { > + string_list_append(list, buf.buf)->util = util; > + strbuf_reset(&buf); > + } > + util = xcalloc(sizeof(*util), 1); > + if (get_oid(p, &util->oid)) { > + error(_("could not parse commit '%s'"), p); > + free(util); > + string_list_clear(list, 1); > + strbuf_release(&buf); > + strbuf_release(&line); > + fclose(in); > + finish_command(&cp); > + return -1; > + } > + util->matching = -1; > + in_header = 1; > + continue; > + } > + > + if (starts_with(line.buf, "diff --git")) { > + in_header = 0; > + strbuf_addch(&buf, '\n'); > + if (!util->diff_offset) > + util->diff_offset = buf.len; > + strbuf_addbuf(&buf, &line); > + } else if (in_header) { > + if (starts_with(line.buf, "Author: ")) { > + strbuf_addbuf(&buf, &line); > + strbuf_addstr(&buf, "\n\n"); > + } else if (starts_with(line.buf, " ")) { > + strbuf_addbuf(&buf, &line); > + strbuf_addch(&buf, '\n'); > + } > + continue; > + } else if (starts_with(line.buf, "@@ ")) > + strbuf_addstr(&buf, "@@"); > + else if (!line.buf[0] || starts_with(line.buf, "index ")) > + /* > + * A completely blank (not ' \n', which is context) > + * line is not valid in a diff.

Having those same commits unchanged in both ranges (e.g. if a commit earlier in the range has been changed, and range B has been rebased on top of that), we'd get the following mapping from range A to range B for the commits in question: A -> C B -> B C -> A Which is not quite what I would expect as the user (even though it is a valid mapping, and it probably doesn't matter too much for the end result of the range diff, as nothing has changed between the commits anyway). So I'm not sure it's worth fixing this, as it is a pathological case, and nothing really breaks. > + > + hashmap_free(&map, 0); > +} > + > +static void diffsize_consume(void *data, char *line, unsigned long len) > +{ > + (*(int *)data)++; > +} > + > +static int diffsize(const char *a, const char *b) > +{ > + xpparam_t pp = { 0 }; > + xdemitconf_t cfg = { 0 }; > + mmfile_t mf1, mf2; > + int count = 0; > + > + mf1.ptr = (char *)a; > + mf1.size = strlen(a); > + mf2.ptr = (char *)b; > + mf2.size = strlen(b); > + > + cfg.ctxlen = 3; > + if (!xdi_diff_outf(&mf1, &mf2, diffsize_consume, &count, &pp, &cfg)) > + return count; > + > + error(_("failed to generate diff")); > + return COST_MAX; > +} > + > +static void get_correspondences(struct string_list *a, struct string_list *b, > + int creation_factor) > +{ > + int n = a->nr + b->nr; > + int *cost, c, *a2b, *b2a; > + int i, j; > + > + ALLOC_ARRAY(cost, st_mult(n, n)); > + ALLOC_ARRAY(a2b, n); > + ALLOC_ARRAY(b2a, n); > + > + for (i = 0; i < a->nr; i++) { > + struct patch_util *a_util = a->items[i].util; > + > + for (j = 0; j < b->nr; j++) { > + struct patch_util *b_util = b->items[j].util; > + > + if (a_util->matching == j) > + c = 0; > + else if (a_util->matching < 0 && b_util->matching < 0) > + c = diffsize(a_util->diff, b_util->diff); > + else > + c = COST_MAX; > + cost[i + n * j] = c; > + } > + > + c = a_util->matching < 0 ? > + a_util->diffsize * creation_factor / 100 : COST_MAX; > + for (j = b->nr; j < n; j++) > + cost[i + n * j] = c; > + } > + > + for (j = 0; j < b->nr; j++) { > + struct patch_util *util = b->items[j].util; > + > + c = util->matching < 0 ? > + util->diffsize * creation_factor / 100 : COST_MAX; > + for (i = a->nr; i < n; i++) > + cost[i + n * j] = c; > + } > + > + for (i = a->nr; i < n; i++) > + for (j = b->nr; j < n; j++) > + cost[i + n * j] = 0; > + > + compute_assignment(n, n, cost, a2b, b2a); > + > + for (i = 0; i < a->nr; i++) > + if (a2b[i] >= 0 && a2b[i] < b->nr) { > + struct patch_util *a_util = a->items[i].util; > + struct patch_util *b_util = b->items[a2b[i]].util; > + > + a_util->matching = a2b[i]; > + b_util->matching = i; So here we re-assign 'matching' in the struct regardless of whether it was assigned before while searching for exact matches or not. Shouldn't diffsize for matching patches also be 0? So are we doing the 'find_exact_matches()' bit only as an optimization, or am I missing some other reason why that is beneficial? > + } > + > + free(cost); > + free(a2b); > + free(b2a); > +} > + > +static const char *short_oid(struct patch_util *util) > +{ > + return find_unique_abbrev(&util->oid, DEFAULT_ABBREV); > +} > + > +static void output(struct string_list *a, struct string_list *b) > +{ > + int i; > + > + for (i = 0; i < b->nr; i++) { > + struct patch_util *util = b->items[i].util, *prev; > + > + if (util->matching < 0) > + printf("-: -------- > %d: %s\n", > + i + 1, short_oid(util)); > + else { > + prev = a->items[util->matching].util; > + printf("%d: %s ! %d: %s\n", > + util->matching + 1, short_oid(prev), > + i + 1, short_oid(util)); > + } > + } > + > + for (i = 0; i < a->nr; i++) { > + struct patch_util *util = a->items[i].util; > + > + if (util->matching < 0) > + printf("%d: %s < -: --------\n", > + i + 1, short_oid(util)); > + } > +} > + > +int show_range_diff(const char *range1, const char *range2, > + int creation_factor) > +{ > + int res = 0; > + > + struct string_list branch1 = STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP; > + struct string_list branch2 = STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP; > + > + if (read_patches(range1, &branch1)) > + res = error(_("could not parse log for '%s'"), range1); > + if (!res && read_patches(range2, &branch2)) > + res = error(_("could not parse log for '%s'"), range2); > + > + if (!res) { > + find_exact_matches(&branch1, &branch2); Note to self: here we assign the matching member of struct patch_util for each patch in both ranges to a patch number in the other range if it is an exact match. We also assign the patch and diff members, and number the patches using the 'i' member of struct patch_util. Let's see if that numbering is still useful later. > + get_correspondences(&branch1, &branch2, creation_factor); And here we use the linear assignment algorithm to match the rest of the commits. > + output(&branch1, &branch2); And finally we print the output. We don't seem to use the util->i that's assigned for range b (or range 2) anywhere at the moment, which I was wondering about earlier, so I assume it's there mainly for symmetry, but it doesn't really hurt other than me wondering what it was for. > + } > + > + string_list_clear(&branch1, 1); > + string_list_clear(&branch2, 1); > + > + return res; > +} > diff --git a/range-diff.h b/range-diff.h > new file mode 100644 > index 000000000..dd30449c4 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/range-diff.h > @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ > +#ifndef BRANCH_DIFF_H > +#define BRANCH_DIFF_H s/BRANCH/RANGE/ above? > +int show_range_diff(const char *range1, const char *range2, > + int creation_factor); > + > +#endif > -- > gitgitgadget >
