Sorry, I was busy with work-life this week. --------------8<----------- For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full, and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format, we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length. Although, that consistent is documented, it doesn't stop users from trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's objects' name's abbreviation. Let's resolve that inconsistency. brian m. carlson (1): t4013: improve diff-post-processor logic Đoàn Trần Công Danh (1): diff: index-line: respect --abbrev in object's name Documentation/diff-options.txt | 9 +-- diff.c | 5 +- t/t4013-diff-various.sh | 63 ++++++++++++------- ...ff.diff-tree_--root_-p_--abbrev=10_initial | 29 +++++++++ ...--root_-p_--full-index_--abbrev=10_initial | 29 +++++++++ ...f.diff-tree_--root_-p_--full-index_initial | 29 +++++++++ 6 files changed, 138 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) create mode 100644 t/t4013/diff.diff-tree_--root_-p_--abbrev=10_initial create mode 100644 t/t4013/diff.diff-tree_--root_-p_--full-index_--abbrev=10_initial create mode 100644 t/t4013/diff.diff-tree_--root_-p_--full-index_initial Range-diff against v3: 1: 7966f6ca1d < -: ---------- revision: differentiate if --no-abbrev asked explicitly -: ---------- > 1: a52d0e59ec t4013: improve diff-post-processor logic 2: 1d32e791a4 = 2: 3cec490500 diff: index-line: respect --abbrev in object's name -- 2.28.0.143.g760df7782d.dirty
