The existing "--cherry-pick" does not work with unsymmetric ranges
(A..B) for obvious reasons.
Introduce "--left-only" and "--right-only" which limit the output to
commits on the respective sides of a symmetric range (i.e. only "<"
resp. ">" commits as per "--left-right").
This is especially useful for things like
git log --cherry-pick --right-only @{u}...
which is much more flexible (and descriptive) than
git cherry @{u} | sed -ne 's/^+ //p'

git log --cherry-pick @{u}...

The reflog-walking mechanism is based on the regular
revision traversal. We just rewrite the parents of each
commit in fake_reflog_parent to point to the commit in the
next reflog entry instead of the real parents.
However, the regular revision traversal tries not to show
the same commit twice, and so sets the SHOWN flag on each
commit it shows. In a reflog, however, we may want to see
the same commit more than once if it appears in the reflog
multiple times (which easily happens, for example, if you do
a reset to a prior state).
The fake_reflog_parent function takes care of this by
clearing flags, including SHOWN. Unfortunately, it does so
at the very end of the function, and it is possible to
return early from the function if there is no fake parent to
set up (e.g., because we are at the very first reflog entry
on the branch). In such a case the flag is not cleared, and
the entry is skipped by the revision traversal machinery as
already shown.
You can see this by walking the log of a ref which is set to
its very first commit more than once (the test below shows
such a situation). In this case the reflog walk will fail to
show the entry for the initial creation of the ref.
We don't want to simply move the flag-clearing to the top of
the function; we want to make sure flags set during the
fake-parent installation are also cleared. Instead, let's
hoist the flag-clearing out of the fake_reflog_parent
function entirely. It's not really about fake parents
anyway, and the only caller is the get_revision machinery.

To show the last two commits with one command, one might try
1) git show -s master~2..
2) git show -s ^master~2 master
3) git show -s master^ master
4) git show -s -2 master
Choice (3) works because both commits are listed on the command line.
Choices (1) and (2) have worked ever since v1.6.4-rc~3 (Make 'git

So disable --no-walk in this case so ‘git show’ and future ‘git

"rev-list A..H" computes the set of commits that are ancestors of H, but
excludes the ones that are ancestors of A. This is useful to see what
happened to the history leading to H since A, in the sense that "what does
H have that did not exist in A" (e.g. when you have a choice to update to
H from A).
x---x---A---B---C <-- topic
/ \
x---x---x---o---o---o---o---M---D---E---F---G <-- dev
/ \
x---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---N---H <-- master
The result in the above example would be the commits marked with caps
letters (except for A itself, of course), and the ones marked with 'o'.
When you want to find out what commits in H are contaminated with the bug
introduced by A and need fixing, however, you might want to view only the
subset of "A..B" that are actually descendants of A, i.e. excluding the
ones marked with 'o'. Introduce a new option --ancestry-path to compute
this set with "rev-list --ancestry-path A..B".
Note that in practice, you would build a fix immediately on top of A and
"git branch --contains A" will give the names of branches that you would
need to merge the fix into (i.e. topic, dev and master), so this may not
be worth paying the extra cost of postprocessing.

Traditionally, "show" defaulted to "show --cc" (dense combined patch), but
asking for combined patch with "show -c" didn't turn the patch output
format on; the placement of this logic in setup_revisions() dates back to
cd2bdc5 (Common option parsing for "git log --diff" and friends,
2006-04-14).
This unfortunately cannot be done as a trivial change of "if dense
combined is asked, default to patch format" done in setup_revisions() to
"if any combined is asked, default to patch format", as "diff-tree -c"
needs to default to raw, while "diff-tree --cc" needs to default to patch,
and they share the codepath. These command specific defaults are now
handled in the new "tweak" callback that can be customized by individual

The --cherry-pick logic starts by counting the commits on each side,
so that it can filter away commits on the bigger one. However, so
far it missed an opportunity for optimization: it doesn't need to do

it internally uses --cherry-pick, but since HEAD~$n is a direct

Historically, any grep filter in "git log" family of commands were taken
as restricting to commits with any of the words in the commit log message.
However, the user almost always want to find commits "done by this person
on that topic". With "--all-match" option, a series of grep patterns can
be turned into a requirement that all of them must produce a match, but
that makes it impossible to ask for "done by me, on either this or that"
with:
log --author=me --committer=him --grep=this --grep=that
because it will require both "this" and "that" to appear.
Change the "header" parser of grep library to treat the headers specially,
and parse it as:
(all-match-OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me)
(HEADER-COMMITTER him)
(OR
(PATTERN this)
(PATTERN that) ) )
Even though the "log" command line parser doesn't give direct access to
the extended grep syntax to group terms with parentheses, this change will
cover the majority of the case the users would want.
This incidentally revealed that one test in t7002 was bogus. It ran:
log --author=Thor --grep=Thu --format='%s'
and expected (wrongly) "Thu" to match "Thursday" in the author/committer
date, but that would never match, as the timestamp in raw commit buffer
does not have the name of the day-of-the-week.

Giving "Notes" information in the default output format of "log" and
"show" is a sensible progress (the user has asked for it by having the
notes), but for some commands (e.g. "format-patch") spewing notes into the
formatted commit log message without being asked is too aggressive.
Enable notes output only for "log", "show", "whatchanged" by default and
only when the user didn't ask any specific --pretty/--format from the
command line; users can explicitly override this default with --show-notes
and --no-notes option.

In the worst case is_submodule_modified() got called three times for
each submodule. The information we got from scanning the whole
submodule tree the first time can be reused instead.
New parameters have been added to diff_change() and diff_addremove(),
the information is stored in a new member of struct diff_filespec. Its
value is then reused instead of calling is_submodule_modified() again.
When no explicit "-dirty" is needed in the output the call to
is_submodule_modified() is not necessary when the submodules HEAD
already disagrees with the ref of the superproject, as this alone
marks it as modified. To achieve that, get_stat_data() got an extra

I personally use "git bisect visualize" all the time when I bisect, but it

the current bisection tree with just a few pathnames because I _suspect_
those pathnames are involved in the problem but am not totally sure about
them.
And at other times, I want to use other revision parsing logic, none of
which is available with "git bisect visualize".

When we show a reflog, we have two ways of naming the entry:
by sequence number (e.g., HEAD@{0}) or by date (e.g.,
HEAD@{10 minutes ago}). There is no explicit option to set
one or the other, but we guess based on whether or not the
user has provided us with a date format, showing them the
date version if they have done so, and the sequence number
otherwise.
This usually made sense if the use did something like "git
log -g --date=relative". However, it didn't make much sense
if the user set the date format using the log.date config
variable; in that case, all of their reflogs would end up as
dates.
This patch records the source of the date format and only
triggers the date-based view if --date= was given on the

Previously, graph_is_interesting() did not behave quite the same way as

This change creates a get_commit_action() function, which
graph_is_interesting() and simplify_commit() both now use to determine
if a commit will be shown. It is identical to the old simplify_commit()
behavior, except that it never calls rewrite_parents().

look at blobs if we know the trees are different by looking at the higher

showing one change that we happened to have found first, it also enables

For some reason, I ended up doing
git show HEAD~5..
as an odd way of asking for a log. I realize I should just have used "git
log", but at the same time it does make perfect conceptual sense. After
all, you _could_ have done
git show HEAD HEAD~1 HEAD~2 HEAD~3 HEAD~4
and saying "git show HEAD~5.." is pretty natural. It's not like "git show"
only ever showed a single commit (or other object) before either! So
conceptually, giving a commit range is a very sensible operation, even
though you'd traditionally have used "git log" for that.
However, doing that currently results in an error
fatal: object ranges do not make sense when not walking revisions
which admittedly _also_ makes perfect sense - from an internal git
implementation standpoint in 'revision.c'.
However, I think that asking to show a range makes sense to a user, while
saying "object ranges no not make sense when not walking revisions" only
makes sense to a git developer.
So on the whole, of the two different "makes perfect sense" behaviors, I
think I originally picked the wrong one. And quite frankly, I don't really
see anybody actually _depending_ on that error case. So why not change it?
So rather than error out, just turn that non-walking error case into a
"silently turn on walking" instead.

I do various statistics on git, and one of the things I look at is merges,
because they are often interesting events to count ("how many merges vs
how much 'real development'" kind of statistics). And you can do it with
some fairly straightforward scripting, ie
git rev-list --parents HEAD |
grep ' .* ' |
git diff-tree --always -s --pretty=oneline --stdin |
less -S
will do it.
But I finally got irritated with the fact that we can skip merges with
'--no-merges', but we can't do the trivial reverse operation.
So this just adds a '--merges' flag that _only_ shows merges. Now you can
do the above with just a
git log --merges --pretty=oneline
which is a lot simpler. It also means that we automatically get a lot of
statistics for free, eg
git shortlog -ns --merges
does exactly what you'd want it to do.

This simplifies the logic of rev_compare_tree() by removing a special
case.
It does so by turning the special case of finding a diff to be "all new
files" into a more generic case of "all new" vs "all removed" vs "mixed
changes", so now the code is actually more powerful and more generic, and
the added symmetry actually makes it simpler too.
This makes no changes to any existing behavior, but apart from the

In particular, pushing the "path_name()" call _into_ the show() function
would seem to allow
- more clarity into who "owns" the name (ie now when we free the name in
the show_object callback, it's because we generated it ourselves by
calling path_name())
- not calling path_name() at all, either because we don't care about the
name in the first place, or because we are actually happy walking the
linked list of "struct name_path *" and the last component.
Now, I didn't do that latter optimization, because it would require some
more coding, but especially looking at "builtin-pack-objects.c", we really
don't even want the whole pathname, we really would be better off with the
list of path components.
Why? We use that name for two things:
- add_preferred_base_object(), which actually _wants_ to traverse the
path, and now does it by looking for '/' characters!
- for 'name_hash()', which only cares about the last 16 characters of a
name, so again, generating the full name seems to be just unnecessary
work.
Anyway, so I didn't look any closer at those things, but it did convince
me that the "show_object()" calling convention was crazy, and we're
actually better off doing _less_ in list-objects.c, and giving people
access to the internal data structures so that they can decide whether
they want to generate a path-name or not.
This patch does that, and then for people who did use the name (even if

Here's a less trivial thing, and slightly more dubious one.
I was looking at that "struct object_array objects", and wondering why we
do that. I have honestly totally forgotten. Why not just call the "show()"
function as we encounter the objects? Rather than add the objects to the
object_array, and then at the very end going through the array and doing a
'show' on all, just do things more incrementally.
Now, there are possible downsides to this:
- the "buffer using object_array" _can_ in theory result in at least
better I-cache usage (two tight loops rather than one more spread out
one). I don't think this is a real issue, but in theory..
- this _does_ change the order of the objects printed. Instead of doing a
"process_tree(revs, commit->tree, &objects, NULL, "");" in the loop
over the commits (which puts all the root trees _first_ in the object
list, this patch just adds them to the list of pending objects, and
then we'll traverse them in that order (and thus show each root tree
object together with the objects we discover under it)
I _think_ the new ordering actually makes more sense, but the object
ordering is actually a subtle thing when it comes to packing
efficiency, so any change in order is going to have implications for
packing. Good or bad, I dunno.
- There may be some reason why we did it that odd way with the object
array, that I have simply forgotten.
Anyway, now that we don't buffer up the objects before showing them
that may actually result in lower memory usage during that whole
traverse_commit_list() phase.
This is seriously not very deeply tested. It makes sense to me, it seems
to pass all the tests, it looks ok, but...
Does anybody remember why we did that "object_array" thing? It used to be
an "object_list" a long long time ago, but got changed into the array due
to better memory usage patterns (those linked lists of obejcts are
horrible from a memory allocation standpoint). But I wonder why we didn't
do this back then. Maybe there's a reason for it.
Or maybe there _used_ to be a reason, and no longer is.

cc0e6c5 (Handle return code of parse_commit in revision machinery,
2007-05-04) attempted to tighten error checking in the revision machinery,
but it wasn't enough. When get_revision_1() was asked for the next commit
to return, it tries to read and simplify the parents of the commit to be
returned, but an error while doing so was silently ignored and reported as
a truncated history to the caller instead.
This resulted in an early end of "git log" output or a pack that lacks
older commits from "git pack-objects", without any error indication in the
exit status from these commands, even though the underlying parse_commit()
issues an error message to the end user.
Note that the codepath in add_parents_list() that paints parents of an
UNINTERESTING commit UNINTERESTING silently ignores the error when
parse_commit() fails; this is deliberate and in line with aeeae1b
(revision traversal: allow UNINTERESTING objects to be missing,
2009-01-27).
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Most of the existing codepaths were meant to treat missing uninteresting
objects to be a silently ignored non-error, but there were a few places
in handle_commit() and add_parents_to_list(), which are two key functions
in the revision traversal machinery, that cared:
- When a tag refers to an object that we do not have, we barfed. We
ignore such a tag if it is painted as UNINTERESTING with this change.
- When digging deeper into the ancestry chain of a commit that is already
painted as UNINTERESTING, in order to paint its parents UNINTERESTING,
we barfed if parse_parent() for a parent commit object failed. We can
ignore such a parent commit object.

We already support decorating commits by tags or branches that point to

we sometimes want to see _how_ we reached a particular commit.
We can abuse the '->util' field in the commit to keep track of that as
we walk the commit lists, and get a reasonably useful view into which
branch or tag first reaches that commit.
Of course, if the commit is reachable through multiple sources (which is

* jc/maint-log-grep:
log --author/--committer: really match only with name part
diff --cumulative is a sub-option of --dirstat
bash completion: Hide more plumbing commands
When we tried to find commits done by AUTHOR, the first implementation
tried to pattern match a line with "^author .*AUTHOR", which later was
enhanced to strip leading caret and look for "^author AUTHOR" when the
search pattern was anchored at the left end (i.e. --author="^AUTHOR").
This had a few problems:
* When looking for fixed strings (e.g. "git log -F --author=x --grep=y"),
the regexp internally used "^author .*x" would never match anything;
* To match at the end (e.g. "git log --author='google.com>$'"), the
generated regexp has to also match the trailing timestamp part the
commit header lines have. Also, in order to determine if the '$' at
the end means "match at the end of the line" or just a literal dollar
sign (probably backslash-quoted), we would need to parse the regexp
ourselves.
An earlier alternative tried to make sure that a line matches "^author "
(to limit by field name) and the user supplied pattern at the same time.
While it solved the -F problem by introducing a special override for
matching the "^author ", it did not solve the trailing timestamp nor tail
match problem. It also would have matched every commit if --author=author
was asked for, not because the author's email part had this string, but
because every commit header line that talks about the author begins with
that field name, regardleses of who wrote it.
Instead of piling more hacks on top of hacks, this rethinks the grep
machinery that is used to look for strings in the commit header, and makes
sure that (1) field name matches literally at the beginning of the line,
followed by a SP, and (2) the user supplied pattern is matched against the
remainder of the line, excluding the trailing timestamp data.

This has been broken in v1.6.0 due to the reorganization of
the revision option parsing code. The "-i" is completely
ignored, but works fine in "git log --grep -i".
What happens is that the code for "-i" looks for
revs->grep_filter; if it is NULL, we do nothing, since there
are no grep filters. But that is obviously not correct,
since we want it to influence the later --grep option. Doing
it the other way around works, since "-i" just impacts the
existing grep_filter option.
Instead, we now always initialize the grep_filter member and
just fill in options and patterns as we get them. This means
that we can no longer check grep_filter for NULL, but
instead must check the pattern list to see if we have any
actual patterns.

The --full-history traversal keeps all merges in addition to non-merge
commits that touch paths in the given pathspec. This is useful to view
both sides of a merge in a topology like this:
A---M---o
/ /
---O---B
even when A and B makes identical change to the given paths. The revision
traversal without --full-history aims to come up with the simplest history
to explain the final state of the tree, and one of the side branches can
be pruned away.
The behaviour to keep all merges however is inconvenient if neither A nor
B touches the paths we are interested in. --full-history reduces the
topology to:
---O---M---o
in such a case, without removing M.
This adds a post processing phase on top of --full-history traversal to
remove needless merges from the resulting history.
The idea is to compute, for each commit in the "full history" result set,
the commit that should replace it in the simplified history. The commit
to replace it in the final history is determined as follows:
* In any case, we first figure out the replacement commits of parents of
the commit we are looking at. The commit we are looking at is
rewritten as if the replacement commits of its original parents are its
parents. While doing so, we reduce the redundant parents from the
rewritten parent list by not just removing the identical ones, but also
removing a parent that is an ancestor of another parent.
* After the above parent simplification, if the commit is a root commit,
an UNINTERESTING commit, a merge commit, or modifies the paths we are
interested in, then the replacement commit of the commit is itself. In
other words, such a commit is not dropped from the final result.
The first point above essentially means that the history is rewritten in
the bottom up direction. We can rewrite the parent list of a commit only
after we know how all of its parents are rewritten. This means that the
processing needs to happen on the full history (i.e. after limit_list()).

Commands which use parse_options() but also call setup_revisions()
must do their parsing in a two step process:
1. first, they parse all options. Anything unknown goes to
parse_revision_opt() (which calls handle_revision_opt), which
may claim the option or say "I don't recognize this"
2. the non-option remainder goes to setup_revisions() to
actually get turned into revisions
Some revision options are "non-options" in that they must be
parsed in order with their revision counterparts in
setup_revisions(). For example, "--all" functions as a
pseudo-option expanding to all refs, and "--no-walk" affects refs
after it on the command line, but not before. The revision option
parser in step 1 recognizes such options and sets them aside for
later parsing by setup_revisions().
However, the return value used from handle_revision_opt indicated
"I didn't recognize this", which was wrong. It did, and it took
appropriate action (even though that action was just deferring it
for later parsing). Thus it should return "yes, I recognized
this."
Previously, these pseudo-options generated an error when used with
parse_options parsers (currently just blame and shortlog). With
this patch, they should work fine, enabling things like "git
shortlog --all".

There are only two cases the code turns use_terminator on. Obviously, the
traditional oneline format (--pretty=oneline) is one of them, and the new

the bit on.
With this, "--pretty=tformat:%H %s" acts like --pretty=oneline.

The revision limiter uses the commit date to decide when it has seen
enough commits to finalize the revision list, but that can get confused
if there are incorrect dates far in the past on some commits.
This makes the logic a bit more robust by
- we always walk an extra SLOP commits from the source list even if we
decide that the source list is probably all done (unless the source is
entirely empty, of course, because then we really can't do anything at
all)
- we keep track of the date of the last commit we added to the
destination list (this will *generally* be the oldest entry we've seen
so far)
- we compare that with the youngest entry (the first one) of the source
list, and if the destination is older than the source, we know we want
to look at the source.

It's really not very easy to visualize the commit walker, because - on
purpose - it obvously doesn't show the uninteresting commits!
This adds a "--show-all" flag to the revision walker, which will make
it show uninteresting commits too, and they'll have a '^' in front of
them (it also fixes a logic error for !verbose_header for boundary
commits - we should show the '-' even if left_right isn't shown).
A separate patch to gitk to teach it the new '^' was sent
to paulus. With the change in place, it actually is interesting
even for the cases that git doesn't have any problems with, ie
for the kernel you can do:
gitk -d --show-all v2.6.24..
and you see just how far down it has to parse things to see it all. The
use of "-d" is a good idea, since the date-ordered toposort is much better
at showing why it goes deep down (ie the date of some of those commits
after 2.6.24 is much older, because they were merged from trees that
weren't rebased).
So I think this is a useful feature even for non-debugging - just to
visualize what git does internally more.
When it actually breaks out due to the "everybody_uninteresting()"
case, it adds the uninteresting commits (both the one it's looking at
now, and the list of pending ones) to the list
This way, we really list *all* the commits we've looked at.
Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.
That second part is debatable just how it should work. Maybe we shouldn't
show such entries at all (with this patch those entries do get shown, they
just don't get any message shown with them). But I think this is a useful
case.

This allows the --relative option to say which subdirectory to

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
This adds --relative option to the diff family. When you start
from a subdirectory:
$ git diff --relative
shows only the diff that is inside your current subdirectory,
and without $prefix part. People who usually live in
subdirectories may like it.
There are a few things I should also mention about the change:
- This works not just with diff but also works with the log
family of commands, but the history pruning is not affected.
In other words, if you go to a subdirectory, you can say:
$ git log --relative -p
but it will show the log message even for commits that do not
touch the current directory. You can limit it by giving
pathspec yourself:
$ git log --relative -p .
This originally was not a conscious design choice, but we
have a way to affect diff pathspec and pruning pathspec
independently. IOW "git log --full-diff -p ." tells it to
prune history to commits that affect the current subdirectory
but show the changes with full context. I think it makes
more sense to leave pruning independent from --relative than
the obvious alternative of always pruning with the current
subdirectory, which would break the symmetry.
- Because this works also with the log family, you could
format-patch a single change, limiting the effect to your
subdirectory, like so:
$ cd gitk-git
$ git format-patch -1 --relative 911f1eb
But because that is a special purpose usage, this option will
never become the default, with or without repository or user
preference configuration. The risk of producing a partial
patch and sending it out by mistake is too great if we did
so.
- This is inherently incompatible with --no-index, which is a
bolted-on hack that does not have much to do with git
itself. I didn't bother checking and erroring out on the
combined use of the options, but probably I should.

Instead of warning the user that it is expecting git log output from

* lt/rev-list-interactive:
Fix parent rewriting in --early-output
revision walker: mini clean-up
Enhance --early-output format
Add "--early-output" log flag for interactive GUI use
Simplify topo-sort logic
We cannot tell a node that has been checked and found not to be
interesting (which does not have the TREECHANGE flag) from a
node that hasn't been checked if it is interesting or not,
without relying on something else, such as object->parsed.
But an object can get the "parsed" flag for other reasons.
Which means that "TREECHANGE" has the wrong polarity.
This changes the way how the path pruning logic marks an
uninteresting commits. From now on, we consider a commit
interesting by default, and explicitly mark the ones we decided
to prune. The flag is renamed to "TREESAME".
Then, this fixes the logic to show the early output with
incomplete pruning. It basically says "a commit that has
TREESAME set is kind-of-UNINTERESTING", but obviously in a
different way than an outright UNINTERESTING commit. Until we
parse and examine enough parents to determine if a commit
becomes surely "kind-of-UNINTERESTING", we avoid rewriting
the ancestry so that later rounds can fix things up.

The function mark_tree_uninteresting() assumed that the tree entries
are blob when they are not trees. This is not so. Since we do
not traverse into submodules (yet), the gitlinks should be ignored.
In general, we should try to start moving away from using the
"S_ISLNK()" like things for internal git state. It was a mistake to
just assume the numbers all were same across all systems in the first
place. This implementation converts to the "object_type", and then
uses a case statement.

This removes the unnecessary indirection of "revs->prune_fn",
since that function is always the same one (or NULL), and there
is in fact not even an abstraction reason to make it a function
(i.e. its not called from some other file and doesn't allow us
to keep the function itself static or anything like that).
It then just replaces it with a bit that says "prune or not",
and if not pruning, every commit gets TREECHANGE.
That in turn means that
- if (!revs->prune_fn || (flags & TREECHANGE))
- if (revs->prune_fn && !(flags & TREECHANGE))
just become
- if (flags & TREECHANGE)
- if (!(flags & TREECHANGE))
respectively.
Together with adding the "single_parent()" helper function, the "complex"
conditional now becomes
if (!(flags & TREECHANGE) && rev->dense && single_parent(commit))
continue;
Also indirection of "revs->dense" checking is thrown away the

This makes --early-output a bit more advanced, and actually makes it
generate multiple "Final output:" headers as it updates things
asynchronously. I realize that the "Final output:" line is now illogical,
since it's not really final until it also says "done", but
It now _always_ generates a "Final output:" header in front of any commit
list, and that output header gives you a *guess* at the maximum number of
commits available. However, it should be noted that the guess can be
completely off: I do a reasonable job estimating it, but it is not meant
to be exact.
So what happens is that you may get output like this:
- at 0.1 seconds:
Final output: 2 incomplete
.. 2 commits listed ..
- half a second later:
Final output: 33 incomplete
.. 33 commits listed ..
- another half a second after that:
Final output: 71 incomplete
.. 71 commits listed ..
- another half second later:
Final output: 136 incomplete
.. 100 commits listed: we hit the --early-output limit, and
.. will only output 100 commits, and after this you'll not
.. see an "incomplete" report any more since you got as much
.. early output as you asked for!
- .. and then finally:
Final output: 73106 done
.. all the commits ..
The above is a real-life scenario on my current kernel tree after having
flushed all the caches.
Tested with the experimental gitk patch that Paul sent out, and by looking
at the actual log output (and verifying that my commit count guesses

This adds support for "--early-output[=n]" as a flag to the "git log"
family of commands. This allows GUI programs to state that they want to
get some output early, in order to be able to show at least something
quickly, even if the full output may take longer to generate.
If no count is specified, a default count of a hundred commits will be
used, although the actual numbr of commits output may be smaller
depending on how many commits were actually found in the first tenth of
a second (or if *everything* was found before that, in which case no
early output will be provided, and only the final list is made
available).
When the full list is generated, there will be a "Final output:" string
prepended to it, regardless of whether any early commits were shown or
not, so that the consumer can always know the difference between early
output and the final list.

It turns out that I completely broke "git log --follow" with my recent

Why? Because --follow obviously requires the diff machinery to function,
exactly the same way pickaxe does.
So everybody is away right now, but considering that nobody even noticed
this bug, I don't think it matters. But for the record, here's the trivial
one-liner fix (well, two, since I also fixed the comment).
Because of the nature of the bug, if you ask for patches when following
(which is one of the things I normally do), the bug is hidden, because
then the request for diff output will automatically also enable the diffs
themselves.

This actually also fixes another bug in "git log". Try this:

though it never prints the actual diff (because we didn't ask for any diff

Ok, I've really held off doing this too damn long, because I'm lazy, and I
was always hoping that somebody else would do it.
But no, people keep asking for it, but nobody actually did anything, so I
decided I might as well bite the bullet, and instead of telling people
they could add a "--follow" flag to "git log" to do what they want to do,
I decided that it looks like I just have to do it for them..
The code wasn't actually that complicated, in that the diffstat for this
patch literally says "70 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)", but I will have
to admit that in order to get to this fairly simple patch, you did have to
know and understand the internal git diff generation machinery pretty
well, and had to really be able to follow how commit generation interacts
with generating patches and generating the log.
So I suspect that while I was right that it wasn't that hard, I might have
been expecting too much of random people - this patch does seem to be
firmly in the core "Linus or Junio" territory.
To make a long story short: I'm sorry for it taking so long until I just
did it.
I'm not going to guarantee that this works for everybody, but you really
can just look at the patch, and after the appropriate appreciative noises
("Ooh, aah") over how clever I am, you can then just notice that the code
itself isn't really that complicated.
All the real new code is in the new "try_to_follow_renames()" function. It
really isn't rocket science: we notice that the pathname we were looking
at went away, so we start a full tree diff and try to see if we can
instead make that pathname be a rename or a copy from some other previous
pathname. And if we can, we just continue, except we show *that*
particular diff, and ever after we use the _previous_ pathname.
One thing to look out for: the "rename detection" is considered to be a
singular event in the _linear_ "git log" output! That's what people want
to do, but I just wanted to point out that this patch is *not* carrying
around a "commit,pathname" kind of pair and it's *not* going to be able to
notice the file coming from multiple *different* files in earlier history.
IOW, if you use "git log --follow", then you get the stupid CVS/SVN kind
of "files have single identities" kind of semantics, and git log will just
pick the identity based on the normal move/copy heuristics _as_if_ the
history could be linearized.
Put another way: I think the model is broken, but given the broken model,
I think this patch does just about as well as you can do. If you have
merges with the same "file" having different filenames over the two
branches, git will just end up picking _one_ of the pathnames at the point
where the newer one goes away. It never looks at multiple pathnames in
parallel.
And if you understood all that, you probably didn't need it explained, and
if you didn't understand the above blathering, it doesn't really mtter to
you. What matters to you is that you can now do
git log -p --follow builtin-rev-list.c
and it will find the point where the old "rev-list.c" got renamed to
"builtin-rev-list.c" and show it as such.

This cleans up the boundary processing in the commit walker. It
- rips out the boundary logic from the commit walker. Placing
"negative" commits in the revs->commits list was Ok if all we
cared about "boundary" was the UNINTERESTING limiting case,
but conceptually it was wrong.
- makes get_revision_1() function to walk the commits and return
the results as if there is no funny postprocessing flags such
as --reverse, --skip nor --max-count.
- makes get_revision() function the postprocessing phase:
If reverse is given, wait for get_revision_1() to give
everything that it would normally give, and then reverse it
before consuming.
If skip is given, skip that many before going further.
If max is given, stop when we gave out that many.
Now that we are about to return one positive commit, mark
the parents of that commit to be potential boundaries
before returning, iff we are doing the boundary processing.
Return the commit.
- After get_revision() finishes giving out all the positive
commits, if we are doing the boundary processing, we look at
the parents that we marked as potential boundaries earlier,
see if they are really boundaries, and give them out.
It loses more code than it adds, even when the new gc_boundary()
function, which is purely for early optimization, is counted.
Note that this patch is purely for eyeballing and discussion
only. It breaks git-bundle's verify logic because the logic
does not use BOUNDARY_SHOW flag for its internal computation
anymore. After we correct it not to attempt to affect the
boundary processing by setting the BOUNDARY_SHOW flag, we can
remove BOUNDARY_SHOW from revision.h and use that bit assignment
for the new CHILD_SHOWN flag.

Now, when saying --max-age=<timestamp>, or --max-count=<n>, together
with --boundary, rev-list prints the boundary commits, i.e. the
commits which are _just_ not shown without --boundary, i.e. their
children are, but they aren't.
