The old code produced this:
DISPLAY set
| GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID set
| | KDE_FULL_SESSION true
| | |
- - - (editor)
- - + (editor)
- + - (editor)
- + + (editor)
+ - - kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
+ - + kdiff3 kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
+ + - meld kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
+ + + kdiff3 meld kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
where (editor) lists emerge or vimdiff if the preferred editor was emacs
or vim, and then opendiff, and then emerge and vimdiff as fallback
duplicates.
Looking at what the new code does for the (editor) fallback part first:
if echo "${VISUAL:-$EDITOR}" | grep 'emacs' > /dev/null 2>&1; then
merge_tool_candidates="$merge_tool_candidates emerge opendiff vimdiff"
fi
if echo "${VISUAL:-$EDITOR}" | grep 'vim' > /dev/null 2>&1; then
merge_tool_candidates="$merge_tool_candidates vimdiff opendiff emerge"
fi
if test -z "$merge_tool_candidates" ; then
merge_tool_candidates="opendiff emerge vimdiff"
fi
I think it is better to rewrite this part for clarity:
if EDITOR is emacs?
then
append emerge opendiff vimdiff in this order
elif EDITOR is vim?
then
append vimdiff opendiff emerge in this order
else
append opendiff emerge vimdiff in this order
fi
because emacs and vim cannot be set to EDITOR at the same time
(note that I think this also fixes a bug; see below).

This one produces:
DISPLAY set
| GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID set
| | KDE_FULL_SESSION true
| | |
- - - (editor)
- - + (editor)
- + - (editor)
- + + (editor)
+ - - kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor')
+ - + kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor')
+ + - meld kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff gvimdiff (editor')
+ + + meld kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff gvimdiff (editor')
where "(editor')" is empty if your EDITOR is not emacs nor vim.
The original list with the duplicates removed is:
DISPLAY set
| GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID set
| | KDE_FULL_SESSION true
| | |
- - - (editor)
- - + (editor)
- + - (editor)
- + + (editor)
+ - - kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
+ - + kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff meld gvimdiff (editor)
+ + - meld kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff gvimdiff (editor)
+ + + kdiff3 meld tkdiff xxdiff gvimdiff (editor)
Aside from the "(editor') is empty when DISPLAY is set" difference, the
result is also different iff GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID and KDE_FULL_SESSION
are both set. I am guessing that that does not happen in a sane
environment, though.
