[PATCH 05/10] diff: refactor COLOR_DIFF from a flag into an int

From
Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
Date
Aug 18, 2011, 05:03 UTC
Message-ID
<20110818050310.GE2889@sigill.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To
<20110818045821.GA17377@sigill.intra.peff.net>

This lets us store more than just a bit flag for whether we want color; we can also store whether we want automatic colors. This can be useful for making the automatic-color decision closer to the point of use.

This mostly just involves replacing DIFF_OPT_* calls with manipulations of the flag. The biggest exception is that calls to DIFF_OPT_TST must check for "o->use_color > 0", which lets an "unknown" value (i.e., the default) stay at "no color". In the previous code, a value of "-1" was not propagated at all.
