From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> Internally, the `git range-diff` command spawns a `git log` process and parses its output for the given commit ranges. This works well when the patches that need to be compared are present in the local repository in the form of commits. In scenarios where that is not the case, the `range-diff` command is currently less helpful. The Git mailing list is such a scenario: Instead of using Git to exchange commits, the patches are sent there as plain-text and no commit range can be specified to let `range-diff` consume those patches. Instead, the expectation is to download the mails, apply them locally and then use `range-diff`. This can be quite cumbersome e.g. when a suitable base revision has to be found first where the patch applies cleanly. Let's offer a way to read those patches from pre-prepared MBox files instead when an argument "mbox:<filename>" is passed instead of a commit range. For extra convenience, interpret the filename `-` as standard input. This makes it easy to compare contributions on the mailing list with the actual commits that were integrated into Git's main branch. Example: commit=5c4003ca3f0e9ac6d3c8aa3e387ff843bd440411 mid=bdfa3845b81531863941e6a97c28eb1afa62dd2c.1489435755.git.johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx curl -s https://lore.kernel.org/git/$mid/raw | git range-diff mbox:- $commit^! This addresses https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/207 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> --- range-diff: support reading mbox files I frequently find myself wanting to look at the range-diff between some local commits and the patches on the Git mailing list, but unwilling to go through the process of finding an appropriate base revision to apply the patches onto (just to throw the generated patches away afterwards, anyway). So I came up with this patch. May it be helpful to other developers, too. This patch contains a home-rolled mbox parser. Initially, I wrote a really basic parser and it worked well enough, but, you know, as things go it became more complex than that in order to provide actually useful range-diffs for existing commits and their corresponding mails (because of in-body From: headers, because of -- trailers and long subjects, just to name a few reasons). In hindsight, it might have made sense to try to to reuse the parser that is available in mailinfo.c, which I had initially dismissed as overly complex and unnecessary for this use case. If anyone feels up to it, I would invite them to adjust this code to replace the mbox parser with one based on the mailinfo.c. Incrementally, of course, because the perfect is the enemy of the good. Changes since v2: * Fixed two leaks * Avoided dropping a patch just because it does not end in a "-- " line * Empty lines in the middle of a diff are now treated as context lines (newer GNU diff versions generate those) * We now warn when a parsed diff is incomplete (i.e. when the ranges in the hunk header do not line up with the number of parsed lines), but still follow Postel's Law i.e. being kind and accepting. Changes since v1: * We no longer leak allocated memory in the struct patch instance * Made strtost() a bit more stringent * Postel [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postel%27s_Law]ized the mbox parser substantially, together with a couple more cosmetic fixes, based on Phillip Wood's excellent review of v1. * Extended the test case to cover mboxes containing CR/LF and in-body From: lines Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-1420%2Fdscho%2Frange-diff-from-mbox-v3 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-1420/dscho/range-diff-from-mbox-v3 Pull-Request: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/1420 Range-diff vs v2: 1: 485249ddfb3 ! 1: ac4d8704068 range-diff: support reading mbox files @@ range-diff.c: struct patch_util { + + len = find_next_line(line, size); + -+ if (state == MBOX_BEFORE_HEADER || -+ (state == MBOX_IN_DIFF && line[0] == 'F')) { ++ if (state == MBOX_BEFORE_HEADER) { ++parse_from_delimiter: + if (!skip_prefix(line, "From ", &p)) + continue; + ++ if (util) ++ BUG("util already allocated"); + util = xcalloc(1, sizeof(*util)); + if (get_oid_hex(p, &util->oid) < 0) + oidcpy(&util->oid, null_oid()); @@ range-diff.c: struct patch_util { + } + } else if (state == MBOX_IN_DIFF) { + switch (line[0]) { -+ case '\0': -+ continue; /* ignore empty lines after diff */ ++ case '\0': /* newer GNU diff, an empty context line */ + case '+': + case '-': + case ' ': @@ range-diff.c: struct patch_util { + strbuf_addch(&buf, '\n'); + util->diffsize++; + continue; ++ default: ++ if (old_count || new_count) ++ warning(_("diff ended prematurely (-%d/+%d)"), ++ (int)old_count, (int)new_count); ++ break; + } + + if (util) { + string_list_append(list, buf.buf)->util = util; ++ util = NULL; + strbuf_reset(&buf); + } -+ util = xcalloc(1, sizeof(*util)); -+ oidcpy(&util->oid, null_oid()); -+ util->matching = -1; -+ author = subject = NULL; + state = MBOX_BEFORE_HEADER; ++ goto parse_from_delimiter; + } + } + strbuf_release(&contents); @@ range-diff.c: int show_range_diff(const char *range1, const char *range2, struct rev_info revs; + if (skip_prefix(arg, "mbox:", &path)) { ++ free(copy); + if (!strcmp(path, "-") || file_exists(path)) + return 1; + error_errno(_("not an mbox: '%s'"), path); Documentation/git-range-diff.txt | 3 +- range-diff.c | 338 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- t/t3206-range-diff.sh | 27 +++ 3 files changed, 366 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt b/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt index 0b393715d70..e2c4661acde 100644 --- a/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt +++ b/Documentation/git-range-diff.txt @@ -37,7 +37,8 @@ There are three ways to specify the commit ranges: - `<range1> <range2>`: Either commit range can be of the form `<base>..<rev>`, `<rev>^!` or `<rev>^-<n>`.
