95433eeed9 diff: add ability to insert additional headers for paths
When additional headers are provided, we need to
  * add diff_filepairs to diff_queued_diff for each paths in the
    additional headers map which, unless that path is part of
    another diff_filepair already found in diff_queued_diff
  * format the headers (colorization, line_prefix for --graph)
  * make sure the various codepaths that attempt to return early
    if there are "no changes" take into account the headers that
    need to be shown.

75408ca949 diff-filter: be more careful when looking for negative bits
The `--diff-filter=<bits>` option allows to filter the diff by certain
criteria, for example `R` to only show renamed files. It also supports
negating a filter via a down-cased letter, i.e. `r` to show _everything
but_ renamed files.

However, the code is a bit overzealous when trying to figure out whether
`git diff` should start with all diff-filters turned on because the user
provided a lower-case letter: if the `--diff-filter` argument starts
with an upper-case letter, we must not start with all bits turned on.

Even worse, it is possible to specify the diff filters in multiple,
separate options, e.g. `--diff-filter=AM [...] --diff-filter=m`.

Let's accumulate the include/exclude filters independently, and only
special-case the "only exclude filters were specified" case after
parsing the options altogether.

Note: The code replaced by this commit took pains to avoid setting any
unused bits of `options->filter`. That was unnecessary, though, as all
accesses happen via the `filter_bit_tst()` function using specific bits,
and setting the unused bits has no effect. Therefore, we can simplify
the code by using `~0` (or in this instance, `~<unwanted-bit>`).

72962e8b3c diff --color-moved: intern strings
Taking inspiration from xdl_classify_record() assign an id to each
addition and deletion such that lines that match for the current
--color-moved-ws mode share the same unique id. This reduces the
number of hash lookups a little (calculating the ids still involves
one hash lookup per line) but the main benefit is that when growing
blocks of potentially moved lines we can replace string comparisons
which involve chasing a pointer with a simple integer comparison. On a
large diff this commit reduces the time to run 'diff --color-moved' by
37% compared to the previous commit and 31% compared to master, for
'diff --color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change' the reduction is 28%
compared to the previous commit and 96% compared to master. There is
little change in the performance of 'git log --patch' as the diffs are
smaller.

25e61909e9 diff --color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change: improve hash lookups
As libxdiff does not have a whitespace flag to ignore the indentation
the code for --color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change uses
XDF_IGNORE_WHITESPACE and then filters out any hash lookups where
there are non-indentation changes. This filtering is inefficient as
we have to perform another string comparison.

By using the offset data that we have already computed to skip the
indentation we can avoid using XDF_IGNORE_WHITESPACE and safely remove
the extra checks which improves the performance by 11% and paves the
way for the elimination of string comparisons in the next commit.

This change slightly increases the run time of other --color-moved
modes. This could be avoided by using different comparison functions
for the different modes but after the next two commits there is no
measurable benefit in doing so.

There is a change in behavior for lines that begin with a form-feed or
vertical-tab character. Since b46054b374 ("xdiff: use
git-compat-util", 2019-04-11) xdiff does not treat '\f' or '\v' as
whitespace characters. This means that lines starting with those
characters are never considered to be blank and never match a line
that does not start with the same character. After this patch a line
matching "^[\f\v\r]*[ \t]*$" is considered to be blank by
--color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change and lines beginning
"^[\f\v\r]*[ \t]*" can match another line if the suffixes match. This
changes the output of git show for d18f76dccf ("compat/regex: use the
regex engine from gawk for compat", 2010-08-17) as some lines in the
pre-image before a moved block that contain '\f' are now considered
moved as well as they match a blank line before the moved lines in the
post-image. This commit updates one of the tests to reflect this
change.

eec7f53b31 diff --color-moved: stop clearing potential moved blocks
moved_block_clear() was introduced in 74d156f4a1 ("diff
--color-moved-ws: fix double free crash", 2018-10-04) to free the
memory that was allocated when initializing a potential moved
block. However since 21536d077f ("diff --color-moved-ws: modify
allow-indentation-change", 2018-11-23) initializing a potential moved
block no longer allocates any memory. Up until the last commit we were
relying on moved_block_clear() to set the `match` pointer to NULL when
a block stopped matching, but since that commit we do not clear a
moved block that does not match so it does not make sense to clear
them elsewhere.

52d14e166d diff --color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change: simplify and optimize
If we already have a block of potentially moved lines then as we move
down the diff we need to check if the next line of each potentially
moved line matches the current line of the diff. The implementation of
--color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change was needlessly performing
this check on all the lines in the diff that matched the current line
rather than just the current line. To exacerbate the problem finding
all the other lines in the diff that match the current line involves a
fuzzy lookup so we were wasting even more time performing a second
comparison to filter out the non-matching lines. Fixing this reduces
time to run

eb89352504 diff --color-moved: avoid false short line matches and bad zebra coloring
When marking moved lines it is possible for a block of potential
matched lines to extend past a change in sign when there is a sequence
of added lines whose text matches the text of a sequence of deleted
and added lines. Most of the time either `match` will be NULL or
`pmb_advance_or_null()` will fail when the loop encounters a change of
sign but there are corner cases where `match` is non-NULL and
`pmb_advance_or_null()` successfully advances the moved block despite
the change in sign.

One consequence of this is highlighting a short line as moved when it
should not be. For example

-moved line  # Correctly highlighted as moved
+short line  # Wrongly highlighted as moved
 context
+moved line  # Correctly highlighted as moved
+short line
 context
-short line

The other consequence is coloring a moved addition following a moved
deletion in the wrong color. In the example below the first "+moved
line 3" should be highlighted as newMoved not newMovedAlternate.

-moved line 1 # Correctly highlighted as oldMoved
-moved line 2 # Correctly highlighted as oldMovedAlternate
+moved line 3 # Wrongly highlighted as newMovedAlternate
 context      # Everything else is highlighted correctly
+moved line 2
+moved line 3
 context
+moved line 1
-moved line 3

These false matches are more likely when using --color-moved-ws with

the sign of the current whitespace delta to the sign of the line to
avoid this problem. The fix is to check that the sign of the new line
being matched is the same as the sign of the line that started the
block of potential matches.

eb315457f6 diff --color-moved=zebra: fix alternate coloring
b0a2ba4776 ("diff --color-moved=zebra: be stricter with color
alternation", 2018-11-23) sought to avoid using the alternate colors
unless there are two adjacent moved blocks of the same
sign. Unfortunately it contains two bugs that prevented it from fixing
the problem properly. Firstly `last_symbol` is reset at the start of
each iteration of the loop losing the symbol of the last line and
secondly when deciding whether to use the alternate color it should be
checking if the current line is the same sign of the last line, not a
different sign. The combination of the two errors means that we still
use the alternate color when we should do but we also use it when we
shouldn't. This is most noticable when using
--color-moved-ws=allow-indentation-change with hunks like

-this line gets indented
+    this line gets indented

where the post image is colored with newMovedAlternate rather than
newMoved. While this does not matter much, the next commit will change
the coloring to be correct in this case, so lets fix the bug here to
make it clear why the output is changing and add a regression test.

7f14609e29 run-command API users: use strvec_push(), not argv construction
Change a pattern of hardcoding an "argv" array size, populating it and
assigning to the "argv" member of "struct child_process" to instead
use "strvec_push()" to add data to the "args" member.

As noted in the preceding commit this moves us further towards being
able to remove the "argv" member in a subsequent commit

These callers could have used strvec_pushl(), but moving to
strvec_push() makes the diff easier to read, and keeps the arguments
aligned as before.

9865b6e6a4 *.[ch] *_INIT macros: use { 0 } for a "zero out" idiom
In C it isn't required to specify that all members of a struct are
zero'd out to 0, NULL or '\0', just providing a "{ 0 }" will
accomplish that.

Let's also change code that provided N zero'd fields to just
provide one, and change e.g. "{ NULL }" to "{ 0 }" for
consistency. I.e. even if the first member is a pointer let's use "0"
instead of "NULL". The point of using "0" consistently is to pick one,
and to not have the reader wonder why we're not using the same pattern
everywhere.

ad90da7351 diff: ignore sparse paths in diffstat
The diff_populate_filespec() method is used to describe the diff after a
merge operation is complete. In order to avoid expanding a sparse index,
the reuse_worktree_file() needs to be adapted to ignore files that are
outside of the sparse-checkout cone. The file names and OIDs used for
this check come from the merged tree in the case of the ORT strategy,
not the index, hence the ability to look into these paths without having
already expanded the index.

The work done by reuse_worktree_file() is only an optimization, and
requires the file being on disk for it to be of any value. Thus, it is
safe to exit the method early if we do not expect the file on disk.

94b82d5686 rename: bump limit defaults yet again
These were last bumped in commit 92c57e5c1d (bump rename limit
defaults (again), 2011-02-19), and were bumped both because processors
had gotten faster, and because people were getting ugly merges that
caused problems and reporting it to the mailing list (suggesting that
folks were willing to spend more time waiting).

Since that time:
  * Linus has continued recommending kernel folks to set
    diff.renameLimit=0 (maps to 32767, currently)
  * Folks with repositories with lots of renames were happy to set
    merge.renameLimit above 32767, once the code supported that, to
    get correct cherry-picks
  * Processors have gotten faster
  * It has been discovered that the timing methodology used last time
    probably used too large example files.

The last point is probably worth explaining a bit more:

  * The "average" file size used appears to have been average blob size
    in the linux kernel history at the time (probably v2.6.25 or
    something close to it).
  * Since bigger files are modified more frequently, such a computation
    weights towards larger files.
  * Larger files may be more likely to be modified over time, but are
    not more likely to be renamed -- the mean and median blob size
    within a tree are a bit higher than the mean and median of blob
    sizes in the history leading up to that version for the linux
    kernel.
  * The mean blob size in v2.6.25 was half the average blob size in
    history leading to that point
  * The median blob size in v2.6.25 was about 40% of the mean blob size
    in v2.6.25.
  * Since the mean blob size is more than double the median blob size,
    any file as big as the mean will not be compared to any files of
    median size or less (because they'd be more than 50% dissimilar).
  * Since it is the number of files compared that provides the O(n^2)
    behavior, median-sized files should matter more than mean-sized
    ones.

The combined effect of the above is that the file size used in past
calculations was likely about 5x too large.  Combine that with a CPU
performance improvement of ~30%, and we can increase the limits by
a factor of sqrt(5/(1-.3)) = 2.67, while keeping the original stated
time limits.

Keeping the same approximate time limit probably makes sense for
diff.renameLimit (there is no progress feedback in e.g. git log -p),
but the experience above suggests merge.renameLimit could be extended
significantly.  In fact, it probably would make sense to have an
unlimited default setting for merge.renameLimit, but that would
likely need to be coupled with changes to how progress is displayed.
(See https://lore.kernel.org/git/YOx+Ok%2FEYvLqRMzJ@coredump.intra.peff.net/
for details in that area.)  For now, let's just bump the approximate
time limit from 10s to 1m.

(Note: We do not want to use actual time limits, because getting results
that depend on how loaded your system is that day feels bad, and because
we don't discover that we won't get all the renames until after we've
put in a lot of work rather than just upfront telling the user there are
too many files involved.)

Using the original time limit of 2s for diff.renameLimit, and bumping
merge.renameLimit from 10s to 60s, I found the following timings using
the simple script at the end of this commit message (on an AWS c5.xlarge
which reports as "Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8124M CPU @ 3.00GHz"):

      N   Timing
   1300    1.995s
   7100   59.973s

So let's round down to nice even numbers and bump the limits from
400->1000, and from 1000->7000.

Here is the measure_rename_perf script (adapted from
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20080211113516.GB6344@coredump.intra.peff.net/

5d93460024 xdiff-interface: replace discard_hunk_line() with a flag
Remove the dummy discard_hunk_line() function added in
3b40a090fd (diff: avoid generating unused hunk header lines,
2018-11-02) in favor of having a new XDL_EMIT_NO_HUNK_HDR flag, for
use along with the two existing and similar XDL_EMIT_* flags.

Unlike the recently amended xdiff_emit_line_fn interface which'll be
called in a loop in xdl_emit_diff(), the hunk header is only emitted
once.

It makes more sense to pass this as a flag than provide a dummy
callback because that function may be able to skip doing certain work
if it knows the caller is doing nothing with the hunk header.

It would be possible to do so in the case of -U0 now, but the benefit
of doing so is so small that I haven't bothered. But this leaves the
door open to that, and more importantly makes the API use more
intuitive.

The reason we're putting a flag in the gap between 1<<0 and 1<<2 is
that the old 1<<1 flag was removed in 907681e940 (xdiff: drop
XDL_EMIT_COMMON, 2016-02-23) without re-ordering the remaining flags.

0324e8fc6b word diff: handle zero length matches
If find_word_boundaries() encounters a zero length match (which can be
caused by matching a newline or using '*' instead of '+' in the regex)
we stop splitting the input into words which generates an inaccurate
diff. To fix this increment the start point when there is a zero
length match and try a new match. This is safe as posix regular
expressions always return the longest available match so a zero length
match means there are no longer matches available from the current
position.

Commit bf82940dbf (color-words: enable REG_NEWLINE to help user,
2009-01-17) prevented matching newlines in negated character classes
but it is still possible for the user to have an explicit newline
match in the regex which could cause a zero length match.

One could argue that having explicit newline matches or using '*'
rather than '+' are user errors but it seems to be better to work
round them than produce inaccurate diffs.

beginning.  Since it is somewhat cumbersome to implement such a
feature as a post-processing step of "git diff" output, let's
support it internally with two new options.

 - "git diff --rotate-to=C", when the resulting patch would show
   paths A B C D E without the option, would "rotate" the paths to
   shows patch to C D E A B instead.  It is an error when there is
   no patch for C is shown.

 - "git diff --skip-to=C" would instead "skip" the paths before C,
   and shows patch to C D E.  Again, it is an error when there is no
   patch for C is shown.

 - "git log [-p]" also accepts these two options, but it is not an
   error if there is no change to the specified path.  Instead, the
   set of output paths are rotated or skipped to the specified path
   or the first path that sorts after the specified path.

c45dc9cf30 diff: plug memory leak from regcomp() on {log,diff} -I
Fix a memory leak in 296d4a94e7 (diff: add -I<regex> that ignores
matching changes, 2020-10-20) by freeing the memory it allocates in
the newly introduced diff_free(). See the previous commit for details
on that.

This memory leak was intentionally introduced in 296d4a94e7, see the
discussion on a previous iteration of it in
https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqeelycajx.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com/

At that time freeing the memory was somewhat tedious, but since it
isn't anymore with the newly introduced diff_free() let's use it.

Let's retain the pattern for diff_free_file() and add a
diff_free_ignore_regex(), even though (unlike "diff_free_file") we
don't need to call it elsewhere. I think this'll make for more
readable code than gradually accumulating a giant diff_free()
function, sharing "int i" across unrelated code etc.

e900d494dc diff: add an API for deferred freeing
Add a diff_free() function to free anything we may have allocated in
the "diff_options" struct, and the ability to make calling it a noop
by setting "no_free" in "diff_options".

This is required because when e.g. "git diff" is run we'll allocate
things in that struct, use the diff machinery once, and then exit.

But if we run e.g. "git log -p" we're going to re-use what we
allocated across multiple diff_flush() calls, and only want to free
things at the end.

We've thus ended up with features like the recently added "diff -I"[1]
where we'll leak memory. As it turns out it could have simply used the
pattern established in 6ea57703f6 (log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse
the diffopt.close_file attribute, 2016-06-22).

Manually adding more such flags to things log_tree_commit() every time
we need to allocate something would be tedious. Let's instead move
that fclose() code it to a new diff_free(), in anticipation of freeing
more things in that function in follow-up commits.

Some functions such as log_tree_commit() need an idiom of optionally
retaining a previous "no_free", as they may either free the memory
themselves, or their caller may do so. I'm keeping that idiom in
log_show_early() for good measure, even though I don't think it's
currently called in this manner. It also gets passed an existing
"struct rev_info", so future callers may want to set the "no_free"
flag.

This change is a bit hard to read because while the freeing pattern
we're introducing isn't unusual, the "file" member is a special
snowflake. We usually don't want to fclose() it. This is because
"file" is usually stdout, in which case we don't want to fclose()
it. We only want to opt-in to closing it when we e.g. open a file on
the filesystem. Thus the opt-in "close_file" flag.

So the API in general just needs a "no_free" flag to defer freeing,
but the "file" member still needs its "close_file" flag. This is made
more confusing because while refactoring this code we could replace
some "close_file=0" with "no_free=1", whereas others need to set both
flags.

This is because there were some cases where an existing "close_file=0"
meant "let's defer deallocation", and others where it meant "we don't
want to close this file handle at all".

0806279428 Merge branch 'sj/untracked-files-in-submodule-directory-is-not-dirty'
"git diff" showed a submodule working tree with untracked cruft as
"Submodule commit <objectname>-dirty", but a natural expectation is
that the "-dirty" indicator would align with "git describe --dirty",
which does not consider having untracked files in the working tree
as source of dirtiness.  The inconsistency has been fixed.

* sj/untracked-files-in-submodule-directory-is-not-dirty:
  diff: do not show submodule with untracked files as "-dirty"

"git diff -I<pattern> -exit-code" should exit with 0 status when
all the changes match the ignored pattern, but it didn't.

  diff: correct interaction between --exit-code and -I<pattern>

50f0439490 diff: correct interaction between --exit-code and -I<pattern>
Just like "git diff -w --exit-code" should exit with 0 when ignoring
whitespace differences results in no changes shown, if ignoring
certain changes with "git diff -I<pattern> --exit-code" result in an
empty patch, we should exit with 0.

The test suite did not cover the interaction between "--exit-code"
and "-w"; add one while adding a new test for "--exit-code" + "-I".

8ef9312464 diff: do not show submodule with untracked files as "-dirty"
Git diff reports a submodule directory as -dirty even when there are
only untracked files in the submodule directory. This is inconsistent
with what `git describe --dirty` says when run in the submodule
directory in that state.

Make `--ignore-submodules=untracked` the default for `git diff` when
there is no configuration variable or command line option, so that the
command would not give '-dirty' suffix to a submodule whose working
tree has untracked files, to make it consistent with `git
describe --dirty` that is run in the submodule working tree.

And also make `--ignore-submodules=none` the default for `git status`
so that the user doesn't end up deleting a submodule that has
uncommitted (untracked) files.

  shortlog: use strset from strmap.h
  Use new HASHMAP_INIT macro to simplify hashmap initialization
  strmap: take advantage of FLEXPTR_ALLOC_STR when relevant
  strmap: enable allocations to come from a mem_pool
  strmap: add a strset sub-type
  strmap: split create_entry() out of strmap_put()
  strmap: add functions facilitating use as a string->int map
  strmap: enable faster clearing and reusing of strmaps
  strmap: add more utility functions
  strmap: new utility functions
  hashmap: provide deallocation function names
  hashmap: introduce a new hashmap_partial_clear()
  hashmap: allow re-use after hashmap_free()
  hashmap: adjust spacing to fix argument alignment
