This reverts commit f5bfcc823b, which
made "git log -m" imply "--patch" by default. The logic was that
"-m", which makes diff generation for merges perform a diff against
each parent, has no use unless I am viewing the diff, so we could save
the user some typing by turning on display of the resulting diff
automatically. That wasn't expected to adversely affect scripts
because scripts would either be using a command like "git diff-tree"
that already emits diffs by default or would be combining -m with a
diff generation option such as --name-status. By saving typing for
interactive use without adversely affecting scripts in the wild, it
would be a pure improvement.
The problem is that although diff generation options are only relevant
for the displayed diff, a script author can imagine them affecting
path limiting. For example, I might run
git log -w --format=%H -- README
hoping to list commits that edited README, excluding whitespace-only
changes. In fact, a whitespace-only change is not TREESAME so the use
of -w here has no effect (since we don't apply these diff generation
flags to the diff_options struct rev_info::pruning used for this
purpose), but the documentation suggests that it should work
Suppose you specified foo as the <paths>. We shall call
commits that modify foo !TREESAME, and the rest TREESAME. (In
a diff filtered for foo, they look different and equal,
respectively.)
and a script author who has not tested whitespace-only changes
wouldn't notice.
Similarly, a script author could include
git log -m --first-parent --format=%H -- README
to filter the first-parent history for commits that modified README.
The -m is a no-op but it reflects the script author's intent. For
example, until 1e20a407fe (stash list: stop passing "-m" to "git
log", 2021-05-21), "git stash list" did this.
As a result, we can't safely change "-m" to imply "-p" without fear of
breaking such scripts. Restore the previous behavior.
Noticed because Rust's src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py made use of this
same construct: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87513. That
script has been updated to omit the unnecessary "-m" option, but we
can expect other scripts in the wild to have similar expectations.

Fix long standing inconsistency between -c/--cc that do imply -p on
one side, and -m that did not imply -p on the other side.
Change corresponding test accordingly, as "log -m" output should now
match one from "log -m -p", rather than from just "log".
Change documentation accordingly.
NOTES:
After this patch
git log -m
produces diffs without need to provide -p as well, that improves both
consistency and usability. It gets even more useful if one sets
"log.diffMerges" configuration variable to "first-parent" to force -m
produce usual diff with respect to first parent only.
This patch, however, does not change behavior when specific diff
format is explicitly provided on the command-line, so that commands
like
git log -m --raw
git log -m --stat
are not affected, nor does it change commands where specific diff
format is active by default, such as:
git diff-tree -m
It's also worth to be noticed that exact historical semantics of -m is
still provided by --diff-merges=separate.

In addition to the manual adjustment to let the `linux-gcc` CI job run
the test suite with `master` and then with `main`, this patch makes sure
that GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME is set in all test scripts
that currently rely on the initial branch name being `master by default.
To determine which test scripts to mark up, the first step was to
force-set the default branch name to `master` in
- all test scripts that contain the keyword `master`,
- t4211, which expects `t/t4211/history.export` with a hard-coded ref to
initialize the default branch,
- t5560 because it sources `t/t556x_common` which uses `master`,
- t8002 and t8012 because both source `t/annotate-tests.sh` which also
uses `master`)
This trick was performed by this command:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/\(test-lib\|lib-\(bash\|cvs\|git-svn\)\|gitweb-lib\)\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\
' $(git grep -l master t/t[0-9]*.sh) \
t/t4211*.sh t/t5560*.sh t/t8002*.sh t/t8012*.sh
After that, careful, manual inspection revealed that some of the test
scripts containing the needle `master` do not actually rely on a
specific default branch name: either they mention `master` only in a
comment, or they initialize that branch specificially, or they do not
actually refer to the current default branch. Therefore, the
aforementioned modification was undone in those test scripts thusly:
$ git checkout HEAD -- \
t/t0027-auto-crlf.sh t/t0060-path-utils.sh \
t/t1011-read-tree-sparse-checkout.sh \

We excluded one set of test scripts in these commands, though: the range
of `git p4` tests. The reason? `git p4` stores the (foreign) remote
branch in the branch called `p4/master`, which is obviously not the
default branch. Manual analysis revealed that only five of these tests
actually require a specific default branch name to pass; They were
modified thusly:
$ sed -i '/^ *\. \.\/lib-git-p4\.sh$/i\
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME=master\
export GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME\

"git diff" family of commands learned the "-I<regex>" option to
ignore hunks whose changed lines all match the given pattern.
* mk/diff-ignore-regex:
diff: add -I<regex> that ignores matching changes
merge-base, xdiff: zero out xpparam_t structures
Add a new diff option that enables ignoring changes whose all lines
(changed, removed, and added) match a given regular expression. This is
similar to the -I/--ignore-matching-lines option in standalone diff
utilities and can be used e.g. to ignore changes which only affect code
comments or to look for unrelated changes in commits containing a large
number of automatically applied modifications (e.g. a tree-wide string
replacement). The difference between -G/-S and the new -I option is
that the latter filters output on a per-change basis.
Use the 'ignore' field of xdchange_t for marking a change as ignored or
not. Since the same field is used by --ignore-blank-lines, identical
hunk emitting rules apply for --ignore-blank-lines and -I. These two
options can also be used together in the same git invocation (they are
complementary to each other).

The output from the "diff" family of the commands had abbreviated

affected by the --abbrev option. Now it is.
* dd/diff-customize-index-line-abbrev:
diff: index-line: respect --abbrev in object's name
t4013: improve diff-post-processor logic
A handful of Git's commands respect `--abbrev' for customizing length
of abbreviation of object names.
For diff-family, Git supports 2 different options for 2 different
purposes, `--full-index' for showing diff-patch object's name in full,
and `--abbrev' to customize the length of object names in diff-raw and
diff-tree header lines, without any options to customise the length of
object names in diff-patch format. When working with diff-patch format,
we only have two options, either full index, or default abbrev length.
Although, that behaviour is documented, it doesn't stop users from
trying to use `--abbrev' with the hope of customising diff-patch's
objects' name's abbreviation.
Let's allow the blob object names shown on the "index" line to be
abbreviated to arbitrary length given via the "--abbrev" option.
To preserve backward compatibility with old script that specify both
`--full-index' and `--abbrev', always show full object id
if `--full-index' is specified.

From 72f936b1 (t4013: make test hash independent, 2020-02-07),
we started to adjust metadata of git-diff's output in order to
ignore uninteresting metadata which is dependent of underlying hash
algorithm.
However, we forgot to special case all-zero object names, which is
special for missing objects, in consequence, we could't catch
possible future bugs where object names is all-zeros including but
not limited to:
* show intend-to-add entry
* deleted entry
* diff between index and working tree with new file
We also mistakenly munged file-modes as if they were object names
abbreviated to 6 hexadecimal digits.
In addition, in the upcoming change, we would like to test for
customizing the length of abbreviated blob objects on the index line,
which is not supported by current diff-processor logic.
Let's fix the bug for all-zero object names, and file modes.
While we're at it, support abbreviation of object names up to 16 bytes.

This reverts commit 489947cee5, which
stopped treating merges into the 'master' branch as special when
preparing the default merge message. As the goal was not to have
any single branch designated as special, it solved it by leaving the
"into <branchname>" at the end of the title of the default merge
message for any and all branches. An obvious and easy alternative
to treat everybody equally could have been to remove it for every
branch, but that involves loss of information.
We'll introduce a new mechanism to let end-users specify merges into
which branches would omit the "into <branchname>" from the title of
the default merge message, and make the mechanism, when unconfigured,
treat the traditional 'master' special again, so all the changes to
the tests we made earlier will become unnecessary, as these tests
will be run without configuring the said new mechanism.

The "-m" option sets revs->ignore_merges to "0", but there's no way to
undo it. This probably isn't something anybody overly cares about, since
"1" is already the default, but it will serve as an escape hatch when we
flip the default for ignore_merges to "0" in more situations.
We'll also add a few extra niceties:
- initialize the value to "-1" to indicate "not set", and then resolve
it to the normal 0/1 bool in setup_revisions(). This lets any tweak
functions, as well as setup_revisions() itself, avoid clobbering the
user's preference (which until now they couldn't actually express).
- since we now have --no-diff-merges, let's add the matching
--diff-merges, which is just a synonym for "-m". Then we don't even
need to document --no-diff-merges separately; it countermands the
long form of "-m" in the usual way.
The new test shows that this behaves just the same as the current
behavior without "-m".

"git diff-tree --pretty --notes" used to hit an assertion failure,

diff-tree.c: load notes machinery when required
Since its introduction in 7249e91 (revision.c: support --notes
command-line option, 2011-03-29), combining '--notes' with any option
that causes us to format notes (e.g., '--pretty', '--format="%N"', etc)
results in a failed assertion at runtime.
$ git rev-list HEAD | git diff-tree --stdin --pretty=medium --notes
commit 8f3d9f354286745c751374f5f1fcafee6b3f3136
git: notes.c:1308: format_display_notes: Assertion `display_notes_trees' failed.
Aborted
This failure is due to diff-tree not calling 'load_display_notes' to
initialize the notes machinery.
Ordinarily, this failure isn't triggered, because it requires passing
both '--notes' and another of the above mentioned options. In the case
of '--pretty', for example, we set 'opt->verbose_header', causing
'show_log()' to eventually call 'format_display_notes()', which expects
a non-NULL 'display_note_trees'.
Without initializing the notes machinery, 'display_note_trees' remains
NULL, and thus triggers an assertion failure.
Fix this by initializing the notes machinery after parsing our options,
and harden this behavior against regression with a test in t4013. (Note
that the added ref in this test requires updating two unrelated tests
which use 'log --all', and thus need to learn about the new refs).

Currently "--cc --dirstat" will show nothing for a merge. Like
--shortstat and --summary in the previous two patches, it probably makes
sense to treat it like we do --stat, and show a stat against the
first-parent.
This case is less obviously correct than for --shortstat and --summary,
as those are basically variants of --stat themselves. It's possible we
could develop a multi-parent combined dirstat format, in which case we
might regret defining this first-parent behavior. But the same could be
said for --stat, and in the 12+ years of it showing first-parent stats,
nobody has complained.
So showing the first-parent dirstat is at least _useful_, and if we
later develop a clever multi-parent stat format, we'd probably have to
deal with --stat anyway.

Currently "--cc --summary" on a merge shows nothing. Since we show "--cc
--stat" as a stat against the first parent, and because --summary is
typically used in combination with --stat, it makes sense to treat them
both the same way.
Note that we have to tweak t4013's setup a bit to test this case, as the
existing merges do not have any --summary results against their first
parent. But since the merge at the tip of 'master' does add and remove
files with respect to the second parent, we can just make a reversed
doppelganger merge where the parents are swapped.

Some of the functions in our test library check that they were invoked
properly with conditions like this:
test "$#" = 2 ||
error "bug in the test script: not 2 parameters to test-expect-success"
If this particular condition is triggered, then 'error' will abort the
whole test script with a bold red error message [1] right away.
However, under certain circumstances the test script will be aborted
completely silently, namely if:
- a similar condition in a test helper function like
'test_line_count' is triggered,
- which is invoked from the test script's "main" shell [2],
- and the test script is run manually (i.e. './t1234-foo.sh' as
opposed to 'make t1234-foo.sh' or 'make test') [3]
- and without the '--verbose' option,
because the error message is printed from within 'test_eval_', where
standard output is redirected either to /dev/null or to a log file.
The only indication that something is wrong is that not all tests in
the script are executed and at the end of the test script's output
there is no "# passed all N tests" message, which are subtle and can
easily go unnoticed, as I had to experience myself.
Send these "bug in the test script" error messages directly to the
test scripts standard error and thus to the terminal, so those bugs
will be much harder to overlook. Instead of updating all ~20 such
'error' calls with a redirection, let's add a BUG() function to
'test-lib.sh', wrapping an 'error' call with the proper redirection
and also including the common prefix of those error messages, and
convert all those call sites [4] to use this new BUG() function
instead.
[1] That particular error message from 'test_expect_success' is
printed in color only when running with or without '--verbose';
with '--tee' or '--verbose-log' the error is printed without
color, but it is printed to the terminal nonetheless.
[2] If such a condition is triggered in a subshell of a test, then
'error' won't be able to abort the whole test script, but only the
subshell, which in turn causes the test to fail in the usual way,
indicating loudly and clearly that something is wrong.
[3] Well, 'error' aborts the test script the same way when run
manually or by 'make' or 'prove', but both 'make' and 'prove' pay
attention to the test script's exit status, and even a silently
aborted test script would then trigger those tools' usual
noticable error messages.
[4] Strictly speaking, not all those 'error' calls need that
redirection to send their output to the terminal, see e.g.
'test_expect_success' in the opening example, but I think it's
better to be consistent.

On both AIX 7200-00-01-1543 and FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p2 the
"${var:-"str"}" syntax means something different than what it does
under the bash or dash shells.
Both will consider the start of the new unescaped quotes to be a new
argument to test_expect_success, resulting in the following error:
error: bug in the test script: 'git diff-tree initial # magic
is (not' does not look like a prereq
Fix this by removing the redundant quotes. There's no need for them,
and the resulting code works under all the aforementioned shells. This
fixes a regression in c2f1d3989 ("t4013: test new output from diff
--abbrev --raw", 2017-12-03) first released with Git v2.16.0.

Certain information is currently shown with --summary, but when used
in combination with --stat it's a bit hard to read since info of the
same file is in two places (--stat and --summary).
On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of
display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of
files.
--compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the
little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with
commit 0433d533f1:
Documentation/merge-config.txt | 4 +
builtin/merge.c | 2 +
...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++
t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh | 45 ++++++++
4 files changed, 132 insertions(+)
It helps both condensing information and saving some text
space. What's new in diffstat is:
- A new 0644 file is shown as (new)
- A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x)
- A new symlink is shown as (new +l)
- A deleted file is shown as (gone)
- A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x)
- A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x)
Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information
--summary provides. Rewrite percentage is not shown but it could be
added later, like R50% or C20%.

Most of the t4013 tests go through a list of sample command lines,
and each of them is executed and its output compared with an
expected one stored in t4013/ directory. Allow these lines to begin
with a colon followed by magic word(s) so that test conditions can
easily be tweaked.
The expected use that will happen in later steps of this is to run
tests expecting the traditional output and run the same test without
the GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS=yes environment exported for (perhaps
some of) them, which will have to expect different output. Since
all of the existing tests are meant to run with the environment,
use the magic word "noellipses" to cause the variable not to be set
and exported.
As this step does not add any new test with the magic word, all
tests still run with the environment variable, expecting the
traditional output, but it will change soon.

Introduce a helper print_sha1_ellipsis() that pays attention to the
GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS environment variable, and prepare the tests to
unconditionally set it for the test pieces that will be broken once the code
stops showing the extra dots by default.
The removal of these dots is merely a plan at this step and has not happened
yet but soon will.
Document GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS.

There are two different places where the --no-abbrev option is parsed,
and two different places where SHA-1s are abbreviated. We normally parse
--no-abbrev with setup_revisions(), but in the no-index case, "git diff"
calls diff_opt_parse() directly, and diff_opt_parse() didn't handle
--no-abbrev until now. (It did handle --abbrev, however.) We normally
abbreviate SHA-1s with find_unique_abbrev(), but commit 4f03666 ("diff:
handle sha1 abbreviations outside of repository, 2016-10-20) recently
introduced a special case when you run "git diff" outside of a
repository.
setup_revisions() does also call diff_opt_parse(), but not for --abbrev
or --no-abbrev, which it handles itself. setup_revisions() sets
rev_info->abbrev, and later copies that to diff_options->abbrev. It
handles --no-abbrev by setting abbrev to zero. (This change doesn't
touch that.)
Setting abbrev to zero was broken in the outside-of-a-repository special
case, which until now resulted in a truly zero-length SHA-1, rather than
taking zero to mean do not abbreviate. The only way to trigger this bug,
however, was by running "git diff --raw" without either the --abbrev or
--no-abbrev options, because 1) without --raw it doesn't respect abbrev
(which is bizarre, but has been that way forever), 2) we silently clamp
--abbrev=0 to MINIMUM_ABBREV, and 3) --no-abbrev wasn't handled until
now.
The outside-of-a-repository case is one of three no-index cases. The
other two are when one of the files you're comparing is outside of the
repository you're in, and the --no-index option.

Add an extension to git-diff and git-log (and any other graph-aware
displayable output) such that "--line-prefix=<string>" will print the
additional line-prefix on every line of output.
To make this work, we have to fix a few bugs in the graph API that force
graph_show_commit_msg to be used only when you have a valid graph.
Additionally, we extend the default_diff_output_prefix handler to work
even when no graph is enabled.
This is somewhat of a hack on top of the graph API, but I think it
should be acceptable here.
This will be used by a future extension of submodule display which
displays the submodule diff as the actual diff between the pre and post
commit in the submodule project.
Add some tests for both git-log and git-diff to ensure that the prefix
is honored correctly.

Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't
have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it.
Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it
sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is
already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git
merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the
situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently
between "git diff" and "git status".
This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written
scripts will not be affected.
