[PATCH 2/3] diff-files --raw: handle intent-to-add files correctly

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx>

In `run_diff_files()`, files that have been staged with the intention to
add are queued without a valid OID in the `diff_filepair`.

When the output mode is, say, `DIFF_FORMAT_PATCH`, the
`diff_fill_oid_info()` function, called from `run_diff()`, will remedy
that situation by reading the file contents from disk.

However, when the output mode is `DIFF_FORMAT_RAW`, that does not hold
true, and the output will contain a bogus OID (and the flag `M` for
"modified" instead of the correct `A` for "added").

As a consequence, `git difftool -d` (which relies on `git diff-files
--raw`'s output) does not work correctly.

Let's fix this specifically by imitating `diff_fill_oid_info()`.

Note: we can only do that for diff formats that do not actually need the
file contents, such as `DIFF_FORMAT_PATCH`: `run_diff()` would try to
read the blob contents, but that blob might not have been written to
Git's object database.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2677
