[PATCH v2 2/3] diff: add -I<regex> that ignores matching changes

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

 



Add a new diff option that enables ignoring changes whose all lines
(changed, removed, and added) match a given regular expression.  This is
similar to the -I option in standalone diff utilities and can be used
e.g. to ignore changes which only affect code comments or to look for
unrelated changes in commits containing a large number of automatically
applied modifications (e.g. a tree-wide string replacement).  The
difference between -G/-S and the new -I option is that the latter
filters output on a per-change basis.

Use the 'ignore' field of xdchange_t for marking a change as ignored or
not.  Since the same field is used by --ignore-blank-lines, identical
hunk emitting rules apply for --ignore-blank-lines and -I.  These two
options can also be used together in the same git invocation (they are
complementary to each other).

Rename xdl_mark_ignorable() to xdl_mark_ignorable_lines(), to indicate
that it is logically a "sibling" of xdl_mark_ignorable_regex() rather
than its "parent".
