[PATCHv6 4/8] Add config variable for specifying default --dirstat behavior

From
Johan Herland <johan@herland.net>
Date
Apr 29, 2011, 09:36 UTC
Message-ID
<1304069783-22739-5-git-send-email-johan@herland.net>
In-Reply-To
<1304069783-22739-1-git-send-email-johan@herland.net>

The new diff.dirstat config variable takes the same arguments as '--dirstat=<args>', and specifies the default arguments for --dirstat. The config is obviously overridden by --dirstat arguments passed on the command line.

When not specified, the --dirstat defaults are 'changes,noncumulative,3'.

The patch also adds several tests verifying the interaction between the diff.dirstat config variable, and the --dirstat command line option.

+	Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the lines that have been

+	This is the default behavior when no parameter is given.
+`files`;;
+	Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the number of files changed.
+	Each changed file counts equally in the dirstat analysis. This is
+	the computationally cheapest `--dirstat` behavior, since it does
+	not have to look at the file contents at all.
+`cumulative`;;
+	Count changes in a child directory for the parent directory as well.
+	Note that when using `cumulative`, the sum of the percentages
+	reported may exceed 100%. The default (non-cumulative) behavior can
+	be specified with the `noncumulative` parameter.

+	An integer parameter specifies a cut-off percent (3% by default).
+	Directories contributing less than this percentage of the changes
+	are not shown in the output.

+Example: The following will count changed files, while ignoring
+directories with less than 10% of the total amount of changed files,
+and accumulating child directory counts in the parent directories:
+`files,10,cumulative`.
