[PATCH] Rename/copy detection fix. The rename/copy detection logic in earlier round was only good enough to show patch output and discussion on the mailing list about the diff-raw format updates revealed many problems with it. This patch fixes all the ones known to me, without making things I want to do later impossible, mostly related to patch reordering. (1) Earlier rename/copy detector determined which one is rename and which one is copy too early, which made it impossible to later introduce diffcore transformers to reorder patches. This patch fixes it by moving that logic to the very end of the processing. (2) Earlier output routine diff_flush() was pruning all the "no-change" entries indiscriminatingly. This was done due to my false assumption that one of the requirements in the diff-raw output was not to show such an entry (which resulted in my incorrect comment about "diff-helper never being able to be equivalent to built-in diff driver"). My special thanks go to Linus for correcting me about this. When we produce diff-raw output, for the downstream to be able to tell renames from copies, sometimes it _is_ necessary to output "no-change" entries, and this patch adds diffcore_prune() function for doing it. (3) Earlier diff_filepair structure was trying to be not too specific about rename/copy operations, but the purpose of the structure was to record one or two paths, which _was_ indeed about rename/copy. This patch discards xfrm_msg field which was trying to be generic for this wrong reason, and introduces a couple of fields (rename_score and rename_rank) that are explicitly specific to rename/copy logic. One thing to note is that the information in a single diff_filepair structure _still_ does not distinguish renames from copies, and it is deliberately so. This is to allow patches to be reordered in later stages. (4) This patch also adds some tests about diff-raw format output and makes sure that necessary "no-change" entries appear on the output.

"lib-diff" tests: make "README" and "COPYING" test data smaller Follow-up the change in 459b8d22e54 (tests: do not borrow from COPYING and README from the real source, 2015-02-15) by not shipping a full copy of older versions of the top-level "COPYING" and "README" files. The tests that use them just need the small blurb at the top of "COPYING" as test data, or mock data that's dissimilar. Let's provide that with a "COPYING_test_data" function instead. We're not replacing this with some other generic test data (e.g. "lorum ipsum") because these tests require test file header to be the old "COPYING" file. See e.g. "t4003-diff-rename-1.sh" which changes the file, and then does full "test_cmp" comparisons on the resulting "git diff" output. This change only changes tests that used the "lib-diff.sh" library, but splits up what they need into a new "lib-diff-data.sh". A subsequent commit will change related tests that were missed in 459b8d22e54. For the test in "t4008-diff-break-rewrite.sh" the "README" file can go away in favor of echoing the line "some dissimilar content" to a file in the one test that needed it. The point of that test is to start with files "A" and "B", and then have A be more similar to the state of "B" than to its old version (by copying over the content from the "COPYING" file). Just comparing the pre-image of "some dissimilar content" and later a munged version of the "COPYING" output serves that purpose. While we're at it get rid of a stray "echo $tree" debugging line added in 15d061b435a ([PATCH] Fix the way diffcore-rename records unremoved source., 2005-05-27), and stop calling "hash-object" to get the hash of an object we've just added to the index.

When we produce diff-raw output, for the downstream to be able to tell renames from copies, sometimes it _is_ necessary to output "no-change" entries, and this patch adds diffcore_prune() function for doing it. (3) Earlier diff_filepair structure was trying to be not too specific about rename/copy operations, but the purpose of the structure was to record one or two paths, which _was_ indeed about rename/copy. This patch discards xfrm_msg field which was trying to be generic for this wrong reason, and introduces a couple of fields (rename_score and rename_rank) that are explicitly specific to rename/copy logic. One thing to note is that the information in a single diff_filepair structure _still_ does not distinguish renames from copies, and it is deliberately so. This is to allow patches to be reordered in later stages. (4) This patch also adds some tests about diff-raw format output and makes sure that necessary "no-change" entries appear on the output.
