Subject: Supporting more gitweb diff possibities
Message-ID: <20070325202642.GA20201@auto.tuwien.ac.at>

I have done a first series of 6 patches, which improves blobdiff and
adds treediff.

[PATCH] gitweb: show no difference message

This patch shows an "no difference" message instead of nothing for
equal objects.

[PATCH] gitweb: Support comparing blobs with different names

This patch adds support for comparing objects with different file
names using hb/hbp.

[PATCH] gitweb: link base commit (hpb) to blobdiff output

Add link the parent commit, as there is currently no such link.

[PATCH] gitweb: support filename prefix in git_patchset_body
[PATCH] gitweb: support filename prefix in git_difftree_body
[PATCH] gitweb: Add treediff

These 3 patches add the treediff method. Its a complete reworked
verion. As git-diff-tree outputs relativ patches (discards part of the
compared tree objects), the first two patches are necessary to produce
correct links in the treediff output.

I do not see many possibilties for code sharing with git_commitdiff:
The only large portion of common code is calling git-diff-tree. I
don't think that this would justify the more complex code.

To test these patches, I still use a JavaScript implementation (see
below). I'm working on the server side implementation.

The next patch, I'm currently working on, will introduce a wrapper for all
calls to
$cgi->a({-href => href([Parameter])}, [Title])
