This code is only needed for diff-tree (since f0c6b2a2fd ([PATCH] Optimize diff-tree -[CM] --stdin - 2005-05-27)). Let the caller do the preparation instead and avoid read_index() in diff.c code. read_index() should be avoided (in addition to the_index) because it uses get_index_file() underneath to get the path $GIT_DIR/index. This effectively pulls the_repository in and may become the only reason to pull a 'struct repository *' in diff.c. Let's keep the dependencies as few as possible and kick it back to diff-tree.c Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@xxxxxxxxx> --- builtin/diff-tree.c | 8 +++++--- diff.c | 10 ---------- diff.h | 1 - 3 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin/diff-tree.c b/builtin/diff-tree.c index 91ba67070e..d07bf2e4c4 100644 --- a/builtin/diff-tree.c +++ b/builtin/diff-tree.c @@ -163,9 +163,11 @@ int cmd_diff_tree(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) int saved_nrl = 0; int saved_dcctc = 0; - if (opt->diffopt.detect_rename) - opt->diffopt.setup |= (DIFF_SETUP_USE_SIZE_CACHE | - DIFF_SETUP_USE_CACHE); + if (opt->diffopt.detect_rename) { + if (!the_index.cache) + read_index(&the_index); + opt->diffopt.setup |= DIFF_SETUP_USE_SIZE_CACHE; + } while (fgets(line, sizeof(line), stdin)) { struct object_id oid; diff --git a/diff.c b/diff.c index 04d044bbb6..72ce8007fd 100644 --- a/diff.c +++ b/diff.c @@ -4414,16 +4414,6 @@ void diff_setup_done(struct diff_options *options) if (options->detect_rename && options->rename_limit < 0) options->rename_limit = diff_rename_limit_default; - if (options->setup & DIFF_SETUP_USE_CACHE) { - if (!active_cache) - /* read-cache does not die even when it fails - * so it is safe for us to do this here.
