Changes in v5:
* drop commit "xdiff/xdl_cleanup_records: simplify INVESTIGATE handling for clarity". * add braces around the else clause
I didn't see a better way to rewrite how action is used so I reverted to what it used to be.
Changes in v4:
* Change SIZE_MAX to PTRDIFF_MAX.
Changes in v3:
* run make DEVELOPER=1 on each commit and fix all compiler issues
v2 is a radical departure from v1 Changes in v2:
* make the flow of xdl_cleanup_records() easier to follow
There is no performance or behavioral change introduced in this patch series.
=== original cover letter bellow ===
Patch series summary:
* patch 1: Introduce the ivec type * patch 2: Create the function xdl_do_classic_diff() * patches 3-4: generic cleanup * patches 5-8: convert from dstart/dend (in xdfile_t) to delta_start/delta_end (in xdfenv_t) * patches 9-10: move xdl_cleanup_records(), and related, from xprepare.c to xdiffi.c
Things that will be addressed in future patch series:
* Make xdl_cleanup_records() easier to read * convert recs/nrec into an ivec * convert changed to an ivec * remove reference_index/nreff from xdfile_t and turn it into an ivec * splitting minimal_perfect_hash out as its own ivec * improve the performance of the classifier and parsing/hashing lines
=== before this patch series typedef struct s_xdfile { xrecord_t *recs; size_t nrec; ptrdiff_t dstart, dend; bool *changed; size_t *reference_index; size_t nreff; } xdfile_t;
typedef struct s_xdfenv { xdfile_t xdf1, xdf2; } xdfenv_t;=== after this patch series typedef struct s_xdfile { xrecord_t *recs; size_t nrec; bool *changed; size_t *reference_index; size_t nreff; } xdfile_t;
typedef struct s_xdfenv { xdfile_t xdf1, xdf2; size_t delta_start, delta_end; size_t mph_size; } xdfenv_t;

## Commit message ##
- xdiff/xdl_cleanup_records: simplify INVESTIGATE handling for clarity
-
- Make it clear that INVESTIGATE is turned into KEEP or DISCARD based on
- the result of xdl_clean_mmatch() which reduces actionX[i] into a
- boolean value.
+ xdiff/xdl_cleanup_records: put braces around the else clause
