[PATCH v2 0/3] Fix two --diff-filter bugs

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

 



A colleague noticed that git diff --diff-filter=Dr behaved in an unexpected
way. The expectation was that the command shows only deleted files, but not
renamed ones.

Turns out that Git's code is incorrect and turns on all diff-filter flags
because the argument contains a lower-case letter. But since it starts with
an upper-case letter, we should actually not turn all those flags on.

While working on the fix, I realized that the documentation of the
--diff-filter flag was not updated when intent-to-add files were no longer
shown as modified by git diff, but as added.

Changes since v1:

 * Now even the case of multiple --diff-filter options is handled.

  docs(diff): lose incorrect claim about `diff-files --diff-filter=A`
  diff.c: move the diff filter bits definitions up a bit
  diff-filter: be more careful when looking for negative bits

     @@ Commit message
          provided a lower-case letter: if the `--diff-filter` argument starts
          with an upper-case letter, we must not start with all bits turned on.
      
     +    Even worse, it is possible to specify the diff filters in multiple,
     +    separate options, e.g. `--diff-filter=AM [...] --diff-filter=m`.
     +
     +    Let's accumulate the include/exclude filters independently, and only
     +    special-case the "only exclude filters were specified" case after
     +    parsing the options altogether.
