The plumbing "diff" commands look at the working tree files without
refreshing the index themselves for performance reasons (the calling
script is expected to do that upfront just once, before calling one or
more of them). In the early days of git, they showed the "diff --git"
header before they actually ask the xdiff machinery to produce patches,
and ended up showing only these headers if the real contents are the same
and the difference they noticed was only because the stat info cached in
the index did not match that of the working tree. It was too late for the
implementation to take the header that it already emitted back.
But 3e97c7c (No diff -b/-w output for all-whitespace changes, 2009-11-19)
introduced necessary logic to keep the meta-information headers in a
strbuf and delay their output until the xdiff machinery noticed actual
changes. This was primarily in order to generate patches that ignore
whitespaces. When operating under "-w" mode, we wouldn't know if the
header is needed until we actually look at the resulting patch, so it was
a sensible thing to do, but we did not realize that the same reasoning
applies to stat-dirty paths.
Later, 296c6bb (diff: fix "git show -C -C" output when renaming a binary
file, 2010-05-26) generalized this machinery and added must_show_header
toggle. This is turned on when the header must be shown even when there
is no patch to be produced, e.g. only the mode was changed, or the path
was renamed, without changing the contents. However, when it did so, it
still kept the special case for the "-w" mode, which meant that the
plumbing would keep showing these phantom changes.
This corrects this historical inconsistency by allowing the plumbing to
omit paths that are only stat-dirty from its output in the same way as it
handles whitespace only changes under "-w" option.
The change in the behaviour can be seen in the updated test.

The plumbing that looks at the working tree, i.e. "diff-index" and
"diff-files", always emit the "diff --git a/path b/path" header lines
without anything else for paths that are only stat-dirty (i.e. different
only because the cached stat information in the index no longer matches
that of the working tree, but the real contents are the same), when
these commands are run with "-p" option to produce patches.
Illustrate this current behaviour. Also demonstrate that with the "-w"
option, we (correctly) hold off showing a "diff --git" header until actual
differences have been found. This also suppresses the header for merely
stat-dirty files, which is inconsistent.

Match the style to more modern test scripts, namely:
- The first line of each test has prereq, title and opening sq for the
script body. This makes the test shorter while reducing the need for
backslashes.
- Be prepared for the case in which the previous test may have failed.
If a test wants to start from not having "frotz" that the previous test
may have created, write "rm -f frotz", not "rm frotz".
- Prepare the expected output inside your own test.
- The order of comparison to check the result is "diff expected actual",
so that the output will show how the output from the git you just broke
is different from what is expected.
- Write no SP between redirection '>' (or '<' for that matter) and the
filename.

Config option diff.statGraphWidth=<width> is equivalent to
--stat-graph-width=<width>, except that the config option is ignored
by format-patch.
For the graph-width limiting to be usable, it should happen
'automatically' once configured, hence the config option.
Nevertheless, graph width limiting only makes sense when used on a
wide terminal, so it should not influence the output of format-patch,
which adheres to the 80-column standard.

A new option --stat-graph-width=<width> can be used to limit the width
of the graph part even is more space is available. Up to <width>
columns will be used for the graph.
If commits changing a lot of lines are displayed in a wide terminal
window (200 or more columns), and the +- graph uses the full width,
the output can be hard to comfortably scan with a horizontal movement
of human eyes. Messages wrapped to about 80 columns would be
interspersed with very long +- lines. It makes sense to limit the
width of the graph part to a fixed value (e.g. 70 columns), even if
more columns are available.

In preparation for the introduction on the limit of the width of the
graph part, a new test with COLUMNS=40 is added to check that the
environment variable influences diff, show, log, but not format-patch.
A new test is added because limiting the graph part makes COLUMNS=200
stop influencing diff --stat behaviour, which isn't wide enough now.
The old test with COLUMNS=200 is retained to check for regressions.

The way that available columns are divided between the filename part
and the graph part is modified to use as many columns as necessary for
the filenames and the rest for the graph.
If there isn't enough columns to print both the filename and the
graph, at least 5/8 of available space is devoted to filenames. On a
standard 80 column terminal, or if not connected to a terminal and
using the default of 80 columns, this gives the same partition as
before.
The effect of this change is visible in the patch to the test vector
in t4052; with a small change with long filename, it stops truncating
the name part too short, and also allocates a bit more columns to the
graph for larger changes.

Default to the real terminal width for diff --stat output, instead
of the hard-coded 80 columns.
Some projects (especially in Java), have long filename paths, with
nested directories or long individual filenames. When files are
renamed, the filename part in stat output can be almost useless. If
the middle part between { and } is long (because the file was moved to
a completely different directory), then most of the path would be
truncated.
It makes sense to detect and use the full terminal width and display
full filenames if possible.
The are commands like diff, show, and log, which can adapt the output
to the terminal width. There are also commands like format-patch,
whose output should be independent of the terminal width. Since it is
safer to use the 80-column default, the real terminal width is only
used if requested by the calling code by setting diffopts.stat_width=-1.
Normally this value is 0, and can be set by the user only to a
non-negative value, so -1 is safe to use internally.
This patch only changes the diff builtin to use the full terminal width.

In preparation for updates to the "diff --stat" that updates the logic
to split the allotted columns into the name part and the graph part to
make the output more readable, add a handful of tests to document the
corner case behaviour in which long filenames and big changes are shown.
When a pathname is so long that it cannot fit on the column, the current
code truncates it to make sure that the graph part has enough room to show
a meaningful graph. If the actual change is small (e.g. only one line
changed), this results in the final output that is shorter than the width
we aim for.

"git log -S<string>" is a useful way to find the last commit in the
codebase that touched the <string>. As it was designed to be used by a
porcelain script to dig the history starting from a block of text that
appear in the starting commit, it never had to look for anything but an
exact match.
When used by an end user who wants to look for the last commit that
removed a string (e.g. name of a variable) that he vaguely remembers,
however, it is useful to support case insensitive match.
When given the "--regexp-ignore-case" (or "-i") option, which originally
was designed to affect case sensitivity of the search done in the commit
log part, e.g. "log --grep", the matches made with -S/-G pickaxe search is
done case insensitively now.

The default output from "fsck" is often overwhelmed by informational
message on dangling objects, especially if you do not repack often, and a
real error can easily be buried.
Add "--no-dangling" option to omit them, and update the user manual to

Based on a patch by Clemens Buchacher, but reverted the part to change
the default to --no-dangling, which is unsuitable for the first patch.

(if applicable), if user provided invalid regexp... which means broken
HTML, with error page (including HTTP headers) generated after gitweb
already produced some output.
Add test that illustrates such error: for example for regexp "*\.git"

During the code review of a recent patch, it was noted that shell scripts

The output of the command is not machine parseable and its exit code is
not reliable across platforms.
It is better to use 'type' to accomplish this task.

The 'git difftool' allows the user to view diffs using an external tool.
It runs a separate instance of the tool for each file in the diff. This
makes it tedious to review changes spanning multiple files.
The 'git-diffall' script instead prepares temporary directories with the
files to be compared and launches a single instance of the external diff
tool to view them (i.e. a directory diff).
The 'diff.tool' or 'merge.tool' configuration variable is used to specify
which external tool is used.
