It's been quite a while since I sent the RFC [1] (thanks all for the comments on that), and the series changed shapes quite a bit since the last round. Since it's been such a long time, just to remind everyone, the goal of this series is to make the range-diff output clearer, by showing information about the filenames to which the current diff belongs. In the previous round, we did this using "section headers" that include information about the current file and adding that to the outer diff's hunk headers. In this round we still keep the section headers (with slightly more information), but in addition we also add the filename to the inner diff hunk headers. In the outer diff hunk headers we then display either the section header or the inner diff hunk header using a userdiff pattern. In terms of code changes the biggest change is that we're now re-using the 'parse_git_header' function from the apply code to parse the diff headers, instead of trying to parse them with some hacky parsing code in range-diff.c. This way we are sure that the diff headers are properly parsed. I had also considered just outputting the section headers directly from 'git log', but then decided against that. Parsing the headers allows a future enhancement of range-diff, where we would allow parsing an mbox file [2]. I split the "only pass required data" commits up, in the hopes of making them easier to review, but I'm also happy to squash them if people feel like that makes it easier to review them. An added advantage of this is that we're also getting rid of things like the similarity index, which are not important in the range-diff, and are thus not represented in the "section header". One thing that did not change is that the new/deleted strings are not translated in this version either. This is similar to the regular diff output, where we also don't translate these. We can still consider translating them in the future though.

Probably not useful in reviewing the code, but good to show off the changes made in this series. range-diff: -: ---------- > 1: ef2245edda apply: replace marc.info link with public-inbox -: ---------- > 2: 94578fa45c apply: only pass required data to skip_tree_prefix -: ---------- > 3: 988269a68e apply: only pass required data to git_header_name -: ---------- > 4: a2c1ef3f5f apply: only pass required data to check_header_line -: ---------- > 5: 0f4cfe21cb apply: only pass required data to find_name_* -: ---------- > 6: 7f1d7a4569 apply: only pass required data to gitdiff_* functions -: ---------- > 7: a5af8b0845 apply: make parse_git_header public 1: 0e678d222c = 8: 1f25bb1002 range-diff: fix function parameter indentation -: ---------- > 9: 01ed0f2a6a range-diff: split lines manually 2: 48716230fc ! 10: 044a79868b range-diff: don't remove funcname from inner diff @@ range-diff.c: static int read_patches(const char *range, struct string_list *lis strbuf_addch(&buf, '\n'); } continue; -- } else if (starts_with(line.buf, "@@ ")) +- } else if (starts_with(line, "@@ ")) - strbuf_addstr(&buf, "@@"); -- else if (!line.buf[0] || starts_with(line.buf, "index ")) -+ } else if (starts_with(line.buf, "@@ ")) { -+ char *skip_lineno = strstr(line.buf + 3, "@@"); -+ strbuf_remove(&line, 0, skip_lineno - line.buf); -+ strbuf_addch(&buf, ' '); -+ strbuf_addbuf(&buf, &line); -+ } else if (!line.buf[0] || starts_with(line.buf, "index ")) +- else if (!line[0] || starts_with(line, "index ")) ++ } else if (skip_prefix(line, "@@ ", &p)) { ++ if (!(p = strstr(p, "@@"))) ++ die(_("invalid hunk header in inner diff")); ++ strbuf_addstr(&buf, p); ++ } else if (!line[0] || starts_with(line, "index ")) /* * A completely blank (not ' \n', which is context) * line is not valid in a diff.
