When formatting a patch as email we do not include the commit's
message in the formatted patch output. Implement this and add a
test that verifies behavior.
When `core.symlinks = false`, we write the symlinks content (target)
to a regular file. We should ensure that when we later see that
regular file, we treat it specially - and that changing that regular
file would actually change the symlink target. (For compatibility
with Git for Windows).
git expects an empty line after the binary data:
literal X
...binary data...
<empty_line>
The last literal block of the generated patches were not containing the required empty line. Example:
diff --git a/binary_file b/binary_file
index 3f1b3f9098131cfecea4a50ff8afab349ea66d22..86e5c1008b5ce635d3e3fffa4434c5eccd8f00b6 100644
GIT binary patch

diff --git a/binary_file2 b/binary_file2

GIT binary patch

git apply of that diff results in:
error: corrupt binary patch at line 9: diff --git a/binary_file2 b/binary_file2
fatal: patch with only garbage at line 10
The proper formating is:
diff --git a/binary_file b/binary_file
index 3f1b3f9098131cfecea4a50ff8afab349ea66d22..86e5c1008b5ce635d3e3fffa4434c5eccd8f00b6 100644

Some nicer refactoring for index iteration walks.
The index iterator doesn't binary search through the pathlist space,
since it lacks directory entries, and would have to binary search
each index entry and all its parents (eg, when presented with an index
entry of `foo/bar/file.c`, you would have to look in the pathlist for
`foo/bar/file.c`, `foo/bar` and `foo`). Since the index entries and the
pathlist are both nicely sorted, we walk the index entries in lockstep
with the pathlist like we do for other iteration/diff/merge walks.
When using literal pathspecs in diff with `GIT_DIFF_DISABLE_PATHSPEC_MATCH`
turn on the faster iterator pathlist handling.
Updates iterator pathspecs to include directory prefixes (eg, `foo/`)
for compatibility with `GIT_DIFF_DISABLE_PATHSPEC_MATCH`.
Document that `GIT_DIFF_PATHSPEC_DISABLE` is not necessarily about
explicit path matching, but also includes matching of directory
names. Enforce this in a test.
When parsing user-provided regex patterns for functions, we must not
fail to provide a diff just because a pattern is not well
formed. Ignore it instead.
We test the generation of the textual patch via the patch function,
which are just one of two possibilities to get the output.
Add a second patch generation via the diff function to make sure both
outputs are in sync.
If an index entry for a file that is not in HEAD is in conflicted state,
when diffing HEAD with the index, the status field of the corresponding git_diff_delta was incorrectly reported as GIT_DELTA_ADDED instead of GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED.
This was due to handle_unmatched_new_item() initially setting the status
to GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED but then overriding it later with GIT_DELTA_ADDED.
This lets us specify in the status call which ignore rules we want to
use (optionally falling back to whatever the submodule has in its
configuration).
This removes one of the reasons for having `_set_ignore()` set the value
in-memory. We re-use the `IGNORE_RESET` value for this as it is no
longer relevant but has a similar purpose to `IGNORE_FALLBACK`.
Similarly, we remove `IGNORE_DEFAULT` which does not have use outside of
initializers and move that to fall back to the configuration as well.
When a file on the workdir has the same or a newer timestamp than the
index, we need to perform a full check of the contents, as the update of
the file may have happened just after we wrote the index.
The iterator changes are such that we can reach inside the workdir
iterator from the diff, though it may be better to have an accessor
instead of moving these structs into the header.
These tests want to test that we don't recalculate entries which match
the index already. This is however something we force when truncating
racily-clean entries.
Tick the index forward as we know that we don't perform the
modifications which the racily-clean code is trying to avoid.
We update the index and then immediately change the contents of the
file. This makes the diff think there are no changes, as the timestamp
of the file agrees with the cached data. This is however a bug, as the
file has obviously changed contents.
The test is a bit fragile, as it assumes that the index writing and the
following modification of the file happen in the same second, but it's
enough to show the issue.
Introduce a new binary diff callback to provide the actual binary
delta contents to callers. Create this data from the diff contents
(instead of directly from the ODB) to support binary diffs including
the workdir, not just things coming out of the ODB.
