Signed-off-by: Kristian Høgsberg --- Thinking about this, the dup-dance really belongs in wt-status.c since that interface promises that it can redirect to a FILE *.

If so, wouldn't we want to suppress the diff, instead of generating it, and then killing it later? Besides, you'd want to leave the \n there: strbuf_setlen(&sb, p + 1 - sb.buf); > + /* Sigh, the entire diff machinery is hardcoded to output to > + * stdout.

An "emit"-type callback would be nice and elegant. The biggest trick is that there are a lot of formatting calls, so you'd need your callback signature to be a variadic function. But it's probably do-able. -Peff ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2007-11-22 19:14 Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] builtin-commit: Include the diff in the commit message when verbose.

I've been wondering if it would be better not to have this logic but instead "git commit -v" to show the diff text prefixed with '# ' to make it a proper comment, by the way. > Besides, you'd want to leave the \n there: strbuf_setlen(&sb, p + 1 - > sb.buf); Yup. >> + /* Sigh, the entire diff machinery is hardcoded to output to >> + * stdout.

The codepath is preparing COMMIT_EDITMSG file for the user to edit (or to the standard output, if this is "git status -v"). I do not know about "strbuf" part; resulting patch text could be large and in most cases the callers would rather flush it to outside (either pipe or file) as soon as possible than having to keep it all in core. I was trying to do the stdout -> FILE *fp conversion of diff.c last night but dropped it halfway, after finding one puts() misconversion and fixing it. The changes should mostly be straightforward but the result felt ugly. ``` ## Kristian Høgsberg, 2007-11-26 15:21 Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] builtin-commit: Include the diff in the commit message when verbose.

Yeah, that would be nicer... I think the best way to do this is to do a formatting callback for the diff machinery as Jeff suggests, which can then prefix '# ' and write it to a FILE *. > > Besides, you'd want to leave the \n there: strbuf_setlen(&sb, p + 1 - > > sb.buf); > > Yup. Right, off-by-one. Effectively it doesn't make a difference, since there will always be a comment line above the diff, When stripspace removes the comments it fixes up the end-of-line problem.
