v5:
* removed the color passing to the submodule to make the tests pass again.
* fixed an indentation issue that was introduced from v3 -> v4.
* I merged it with origin/next and tests pass here.

Thanks, Stefan

v4:
* interdiff to v3 (what is currently origin/sb/diff-color-move) below.
* renamed the "buffered_patch_line" to "diff_line". Originally I planned
  to not carry the "line" part as it can be a piece of a line as well.
  But for the intended functionality it is best to keep the name.
  If we'd want to add more functionality to say have a move detection
  for words as well, we'd rename the struct to have a better name then.
  For now diff_line is the best. (Thanks Jonathan Nieder!)
* tests to demonstrate it doesn't mess with --color-words as well as
  submodules. (Thanks Jonathan Tan!)
* added in the statics (Thanks Ramsay!)
* smaller scope for the hashmaps (Thanks Jonathan Tan!)
* some commit messages were updated, prior patch 4-7 is squashed into one
  (Thanks Jonathan Tan!)
* the tests added revealed an actual fault: now that the submodule process
  is not attached to a dupe of our stdout, it would stop coloring the
  output. We need to pass on use-color explicitly.
* updated the NEEDSWORK comment in the second last patch.

Thanks for bearing,
Stefan

v3:
* see interdiff below.
* fixing one invalid computation (Thanks Junio!)
* I reasoned more about submodule and word diffing, see the commit message
  of the last patch:
  
    A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff':
    In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules
    as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0.
    All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this
    patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these
    cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to
    submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do
    so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

* better name for emit_line outside of diff.[ch]

v2:
* emit_line now takes an argument that indicates if we want it
  to emit the line prefix as well. This should allow for a more faithful
  refactoring in the beginning. (Thanks Jonathan!)
* fixed memleaks (Thanks Brandon!)
* "git -c color.moved=true log -p" works now! (Thanks Jeff)
* interdiff below, though it is large.
* less intrusive than v1 (Thanks Jonathan!)

v1:

For details on *why* see the commit message of the last commit.

The first five patches are slight refactorings to get into good
shape, the next patches are funneling all output through emit_line_*.

The second last patch introduces an option to buffer up all output
before printing, and then the last patch can color up moved lines
of code.

Any feedback welcome.

Thanks,
Stefan

[PATCHv5 01/17] diff: readability fix

We already have dereferenced 'p->two' into a local variable 'two'. Use that.

[PATCHv5 03/17] diff.c: factor out diff_flush_patch_all_file_pairs

In a later patch we want to do more things before and after all filepairs are flushed. So factor flushing out all file pairs into its own function that the new code can be plugged in easily.

[PATCHv5 09/17] submodule.c: convert show_submodule_summary to use emit_line_fmt

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line_0.

This prepares the code for submodules to go through the emit_line function.

As the submodule process is no longer attached to the same stdout as the superprojects process, one might imagine that we would need to pass on the usage of colors explicitly as the subprocess can no longer determine where the output is going to land eventually. But this is not the case. Apparently coloring submodule diffs never worked, so defer the submodule diff coloring to a future patch series.

[PATCHv5 04/17] diff: introduce more flexible emit function

Currently, diff output is written either through the emit_line_0 function or through the FILE * in struct diff_options directly. To make it easier to teach diff to buffer its output (which will be done in a subsequent commit), introduce a more flexible emit_line() function. In this commit, direct usages of emit_line_0() are replaced with emit_line(); subsequent commits will also replace usages of the FILE * with emit().

Instead of having a 'first' parameter containing the first character of a line, have a dedicated 'sign' parameter that is just set when the first character of the line is part of the actual content, i.e. ' ', '+', '-'.

In the future, this function is going to be used even to emit partial lines - could this be called emit() instead?

Yes.
> - could this be called emit() instead?

Despite having good IDEs available some (including me) very much like working with raw text, and then having a function named as a common string doesn't help.

After this patch
  $ git grep emit_line |wc -l
  16
  # not all are this function, there is
  emit_line_checked as well. But 16 is not too much.
But if renamed to emit():
  $ git grep emit -- diff.c |wc -l
  60

You could argue I'd just have to grep for "emit (" instead, but that then I would have rely on correct whitespacing or use a regex already. Complexity which I would not like.

So I am not sure if this is helping a reader. (Not the casual reader, but the one grepping for this function)

Maybe we can settle on a different name though, such as emit_string which is not a prefix of a dozen different other functions?

Thanks, Stefan

[PATCHv5 05/17] diff.c: convert fn_out_consume to use emit_line

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line.

This covers the parts of fn_out_consume. In the next patches we'll convert more functions that want to emit formatted output, so we'd want to have a formatted emit function. Add it here.

[PATCHv5 02/17] diff: move line ending check into emit_hunk_header

The emit_hunk_header() function is responsible for assembling a hunk header and calling emit_line() to send the hunk header to the output file. Its only caller fn_out_consume() needs to prepare for a case where the function emits an incomplete line and add the terminating LF.

Instead make sure emit_hunk_header() to always send a completed line to emit_line().

[PATCHv5 11/17] diff.c: convert show_stats to use emit_line_*

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line_0.

We call print_stat_summary from builtin/apply, so we still need the version with a file pointer, so introduce print_stat_summary_0 that uses emit_line_* machinery and keep print_stat_summary with the same arguments around.

The responsibility to print the line prefix moves from the callers of print_stat_summary_0 into the function itself.

[PATCHv5 17/17] diff.c: color moved lines differently

When a patch consists mostly of moving blocks of code around, it can be quite tedious to ensure that the blocks are moved verbatim, and not undesirably modified in the move. To that end, color blocks that are moved within the same patch differently. For example (OM, del, add, and NM are different colors):

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OM]  -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OM]  -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OM]  -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NM]  +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NM]  +                        multiple,
    [NM]  +                        lines);
    [NM]  +}

Adjacent blocks are colored differently. For example, in this potentially malicious patch, the swapping of blocks can be spotted:

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OMA] -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OMA] -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OMA] -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NMA] +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NMA] +                        multiple,
    [NMA] +                        lines);
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NMA] +}

If the moved code is larger, it is easier to hide some permutation in the code, which is why the alternative coloring is really needed.

As the reviewers attention should be brought to the places, where the difference is introduced to the moved code, we cannot just have one new color for all of moved code.

First I implemented an alternative design, which would show a moved hunk in one color, and its boundaries in another color. This idea was error prone as it inspected each line and its neighboring lines to determine if the line was (a) moved and (b) if was deep inside a hunk by having matching neighboring lines. This is unreliable as the we can construct hunks which have equal neighbors that just exceed the number of lines inspected. (Think of 'AXYZBXYZCXYZD..' with each letter as a line, that is permutated to AXYZCXYZBXYZD..').

Instead this provides a dynamic programming greedy algorithm that finds the largest moved hunk and then switches color to the alternative color for the next hunk. By doing this any permutation is recognized and displayed. That implies that there is no dedicated boundary or inside-hunk color, but instead we'll have just two colors alternating for hunks.

It would be a bit more UX friendly if the two corresponding hunks (of added and deleted lines) for one move would get the same color id. (Both get "regular moved" or "alternative moved"). This problem is deferred to a later patch for now.

A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff': In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0. All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

See the explanation in the patch 16/17. My guess is that one of us (me) was careless again.

The commented lines are easily produced by git-gui, that I use. I think it just takes the commit message from the underlying git-core. But unlike git-core, it doesn't strip off commented lines as there is no extra information in comments presented. I wonder how you are the first signoff after the conflict markers though, as that would hint that you signed off a commit message with the commented conflict lines first, before I had them.

Puzzeled, will fix in a reroll.

Thanks, Stefan

[PATCHv5 10/17] diff.c: convert emit_binary_diff_body to use emit_line_*

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line_0.

This covers emit_binary_diff_body.

[PATCHv5 16/17] diff: buffer all output if asked to

Introduce a new option 'use_buffer' in the struct diff_options which controls whether all output is buffered up until all output is available.

We'll have a new struct 'diff_line' in diff.h which will be used to buffer each line. The diff_line will duplicate the memory of the line to buffer as that is easiest to reason about for now. In a future patch we may want to decrease the memory usage by not duplicating all output for buffering but rather we may want to store offsets into the file or in case of hunk descriptions such as the similarity score, we could just store the relevant number and reproduce the text later on.

This approach was chosen as a first step because it is quite simple compared to the alternative with less memory footprint.

emit_line factors out the emission part into emit_line_emission, and depending on the diff_options->use_buffer the emission will be performed directly when calling emit_line or after the whole process is done, i.e. by buffering we have add the possibility for a second pass over the whole output before doing the actual output.

In 6440d34 (2012-03-14, diff: tweak a _copy_ of diff_options with word-diff) we introduced a duplicate diff options struct for word emissions as we may have different regex settings in there. When buffering the output, we need to operate on just one buffer, so we have to copy back the emissions of the word buffer into the main buffer.

Unconditionally enable output via buffer in this patch as it yields a great opportunity for testing, i.e. all the diff tests from the test suite pass without having reordering issues (i.e. only parts of the output got buffered, and we forgot to buffer other parts). The test suite passes, which gives confidence that we converted all functions to use emit_line for output.

Yes, this is essentially the v4 with small indentation fixes, so I assumed your signoff is still valid.

Which leads to explaining my workflow (which I think we discussed that half a year ago with Dscho in a longer thread).

As soon as you apply a series I take that series and work off that series, because you explained you would do smaller fixups occasionally.

Patches that change drastically, I strip off your signoff and pretend like I created them from scratch, but for those which I barely touch (if at all), I do not remove your signoff, as I'd be just passing them along again.

Maybe I have to rethink that strategy.

Yes. Totally agree. That is fallout from a mechanical replace all s/buffered_patch_line/diff_line/ and the case sensitivity got lost.

Will fix again.

OK. I just didn't expect to see one without "no changes since v4" under the three-dash line.

Probably should be called diff_emission (or just emission), since these may not be full lines.

Also, can this definition be in the .c file? Callers should use the diff_emit_line() below, and not need to know how it is implemented internally.

Should be DIFF_LINE_INIT (capitalization), and {NULL} is sufficient, I think.

[PATCHv5 12/17] diff.c: convert word diffing to use emit_line_*

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line_0.

This covers all code related to diffing words.

[PATCHv5 14/17] diff.c: convert diff_summary to use emit_line_*

In a later patch, I want to propose an option to detect&color moved lines in a diff, which cannot be done in a one-pass over the diff. Instead we need to go over the whole diff twice, because we cannot detect the first line of the two corresponding lines (+ and -) that got moved.

So to prepare the diff machinery for two pass algorithms (i.e. buffer it all up and then operate on the result), move all emissions to places, such that the only emitting function is emit_line_0.

This covers diff_summary.

Re: [PATCHv5 00/17] Diff machine: highlight moved lines.

I was trying to see how this is useful in code moving change, with this command line:

$ git -c color.moved diff js/blame-lib~6 js/blame-lib blame.c blame.h builtin/blame.c
Some random observations:
 * You do not seem to have any command line option yet.  I guess
   that is OK while the series is still in RFC state, but when we
   are ready to seriously start considering this for 'next', we'd
   need something like --color-moved that can be used across "diff",
   "log -p" and "show".
 * As configuration variable names go, "color.moved" is probably in
   a wrong section.  Perhaps "diff.colorMoved" or something?
 * The fact that I am using
     [diff "color"] 
	old = red reverse
	whitespace = blue reverse
   on a "black ink on white paper" terminal might have an effect on
   this, but lines printed in either bold green and on green
   background (i.e. not new ones but are the ones moved from
   elsewhere) stood out a lot more prominently than lines printed in
   green (i.e. truly new additions), and I felt that this is totally
   backwards from what I needed for this exercise.  That is, while
   reviewing a code moving change, I want to be able to concentrate
   primarily of three things:
   - What are the new lines that are *not* moved from elsewhere?
     Did the submitter try to sneak in unrelated changes?
   - What are the changes that are truly lost, not moved to
     elsewhere?
   - Do the lines moved from elsewhere form a coherent whole?  Where
     is the boundary between blocks of text that are copied?  Do
     adjacent two blocks of moved text come from the same old place
     next to each other?
   Using colors that stand out more prominently than for the regular
   new/old lines is counter-productive for all of these, especially
   for the first two purposes.  I may suggest using cyan (or any
   color that is very close to the background) so that the presense
   of moved lines are merely felt without being distracting.  IOW,
   while reviewing code moving patch, moved parts want to be dimmed,
   not highlighted.

There is "--color-moved" as a command line option. (See diff.c:4290) Oh, it is not documented! That will be fixed.

As you turn on/off normal coloring via "color.diff" and this only extends the coloring scheme, I have the impression "color" is the right section. Maybe color.diffStyle=[normal/enhanced] and "enhanced" means this feature for now?

The only option in the "diff" section related to color is diff.wsErrorHighlight which has a very similar purpose, so "diff.colorMoved" would fit in that scheme.

So with these questions, I wonder if we want to color moved lines as "color.diff.context" (i.e. plain white text in the normal coloring scheme) This would serve the intended purpose of dimming the attention to moved lines.

Regarding the last point of marking up adjacent blocks (which would indicate that there is a coherency issue or just moving from different places), we could highlight the last line of the previous block and first line of the next block in their "normal" colors (i.e. color.diff.old and color.diff.new).

The very first version had some boundary coloring, but then I switched to alternating block coloring based on an idea by Jonathan Tan.

Maybe it is time to go back to boundary coloring, but optional and apply the boundary color only if two blocks are adjacent?

I agree. So I could resend the algorithm used with other defaults or try out the "boundary only iff adjacent blocks, else context color".

Hmph, I thought the intent of color.diff is "is the diff command itself is colored?" In other words, color.diff=false should give you monochrome if you say "diff --word-diff", etc.

I didn't have "should diff output highlight whitespace errors?" in mind when I wrote the message you are responding to, but yes, that is quite similar to "should diff output show lines moved and lines deleted/added differently?".

Yes, but two points.
 (1) We want to do so while making it obvious where the boundary
     between two moved blocks of text whose destination (for
     moved-deleted lines) or source (for moved-added lines) is.
 (2) My message was an impression from using the code to review a
     patch that is meant to be "move without changing other things".
     For other purposes, there may be cases where moved ones may
     want to be highlighted, not dimmed.

Yes, but in my understanding the "diff" doesn't apply to the command, but the part of the output. I arrived at that understanding as other commands (show/log/..) also respect that setting, so the "diff" in color.diff is not the command, but referring to something else, the output being the closest match. :)

And by that understanding color.diffStyle is just natural?

But I think that setting would be a bad idea as we'd rather have multiple uncorrelated settings for coloring, which a style argument would not.

With the above reasoning, this may be missnamed and should rather be color.wsErrorHighlight as it applies to more than just the diff command.

Note: The average user may not aware that diff/show/log are tiny wrappers
around the same backend for the heavy lifting.

Yes, that is what the boundary color would accomplish. Any two adjacent blocks with the same sign would have their boundary line colored this way.

Ok, glad you found it somewhat useful already.

I wonder what these use cases would be? (barring a --find-copies harder extension that would not just search the current diff, but the whole tree)

That hints at just having an extra slot for the moved block, but the default color could be the same as color.diff.context for dimming.

By now I also think we may not need different colors for additions or removals, but keeping two colors is easy enough.

[PATCH 0/1] Diff machine: highlight moved lines.

This is a new version of the latest patch of sb/diff-color-move.

It seems as if different people prefer different settings for the boundary/alternate coloring, so let's have all of them. (As the block detection is rather simple we do not need a lot of overhead to support multiple modes).

With more tests:
 * for each mode;
 * check that diff.colorMoved is respected

[PATCH 1/1] diff.c: color moved lines differently

When a patch consists mostly of moving blocks of code around, it can be quite tedious to ensure that the blocks are moved verbatim, and not undesirably modified in the move. To that end, color blocks that are moved within the same patch differently. For example (OM, del, add, and NM are different colors):

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OM]  -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OM]  -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OM]  -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NM]  +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NM]  +                        multiple,
    [NM]  +                        lines);
    [NM]  +}

However adjacent blocks may be problematic. For example, in this potentially malicious patch, the swapping of blocks can be spotted:

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OMA] -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OMA] -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OMA] -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NMA] +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NMA] +                        multiple,
    [NMA] +                        lines);
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NMA] +}

If the moved code is larger, it is easier to hide some permutation in the code, which is why some alternative coloring is needed.

As the reviewers attention should be brought to the places, where the difference is introduced to the moved code, we cannot just have one new color for all of moved code.

First I implemented an alternative design, which would try to fingerprint a line by its neighbors to detect if we are in a block or at the boundary. This idea iss error prone as it inspected each line and its neighboring lines to determine if the line was (a) moved and (b) if was deep inside a hunk by having matching neighboring lines. This is unreliable as the we can construct hunks which have equal neighbors that just exceed the number of lines inspected. (Think of 'AXYZBXYZCXYZD..' with each letter as a line, that is permutated to AXYZCXYZBXYZD..').

Instead this provides a dynamic programming greedy algorithm that finds the largest moved hunk and then has several modes on highlighting bounds.

A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff': In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0. All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

For a moment I was worried that my 'e' key is stuck as it happens to be the same misspelling here. However then I realized I copied over part of the sentence and just replaced added/removed.

Stepping back a bit, maybe the second sentence can be partially elided to be more concise. Maybe:

    Similarly 'color.diff.oldmoved' will be used for removed lines
    that are added somewhere else in the diff.

Thanks, Stefan

[PATCH] diff.c: color moved lines differently

When a patch consists mostly of moving blocks of code around, it can be quite tedious to ensure that the blocks are moved verbatim, and not undesirably modified in the move. To that end, color blocks that are moved within the same patch differently. For example (OM, del, add, and NM are different colors):

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OM]  -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OM]  -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OM]  -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NM]  +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NM]  +                        multiple,
    [NM]  +                        lines);
    [NM]  +}

However adjacent blocks may be problematic. For example, in this potentially malicious patch, the swapping of blocks can be spotted:

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OMA] -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OMA] -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OMA] -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NMA] +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NMA] +                        multiple,
    [NMA] +                        lines);
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NMA] +}

If the moved code is larger, it is easier to hide some permutation in the code, which is why some alternative coloring is needed.

As the reviewers attention should be brought to the places, where the difference is introduced to the moved code, we cannot just have one new color for all of moved code.

First I implemented an alternative design, which would try to fingerprint a line by its neighbors to detect if we are in a block or at the boundary. This idea iss error prone as it inspected each line and its neighboring lines to determine if the line was (a) moved and (b) if was deep inside a hunk by having matching neighboring lines. This is unreliable as the we can construct hunks which have equal neighbors that just exceed the number of lines inspected. (Think of 'AXYZBXYZCXYZD..' with each letter as a line, that is permutated to AXYZCXYZBXYZD..').

Instead this provides a dynamic programming greedy algorithm that finds the largest moved hunk and then has several modes on highlighting bounds.

A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff': In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0. All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

 Replacing the top commit in origin/sb/diff-color-move, 
 this has the spelling fixes by Philip.
 
 Also a minor fix for the 'alternate' mode, to go back to the default
 after empty lines. Thanks to Jacob.
 
 Thanks,
 Stefan

Junio asks "are we happy with these changes" [1] and my answer is, in general, yes - this seems like a very useful feature to have, and I'm OK with the current design.

I do feel a bit of unease at how the emitted strings are collected without many guarantees as to their contents (e.g. whether they are full lines or even whether they originate from the text of a file), but this is already true for the existing code. The potential danger is that we are now relying more on the format of these strings, but we don't plan to do anything other than to color them, so this seems fine.

I would also prefer if there was only one coloring method, to ease testing, but I can tolerate the current multiplicity of options.

I think there was some discussion at trying to avoid indicating that small blocks (consisting of few non-whitespace characters) are moved, but I think that that can be added later.

Probably best to consistently capitalize newMoved and oldMoved.

Probably name this test "--color-moved has no effect when used with --word-diff".

I will add comments into the code for that.

I *think* by now everyone involved in the discussion agrees that we want Zebra + optional aggressive dimming (inside blocks as well as at bounds that are not adjacent to other blocks, i.e. anything non-adjacent to a different block)

[PATCH 00/26] reroll of sb/diff-color-moved

This is a complete rewrite of the series. Highlights:
* instead of buffering partial lines, we'll pretend all diff output
  follows a well defined grammar, and we emit symbols thereof.
  (The difference is mostly mental, though by this trick we reduce
  the memory footprint for storing one of these symbols from 7 variables
  (3 pointers, 3 ints, one state (also int) down to 4 variables
  (one pointer, 2 ints, one state).
* The algorithm for color painting was detangled:
  -> different functions for block detection and dimming
  -> The last patch (not to be applied) is an RFC that shows
     how we would approach non-colored, but machine parseable highlighting
     of moved lines.

Thanks, Stefan

[PATCH 02/26] diff.c: move line ending check into emit_hunk_header

The emit_hunk_header() function is responsible for assembling a hunk header and calling emit_line() to send the hunk header to the output file. Its only caller fn_out_consume() needs to prepare for a case where the function emits an incomplete line and add the terminating LF.

Instead make sure emit_hunk_header() to always send a completed line to emit_line().

[PATCH 03/26] diff.c: factor out diff_flush_patch_all_file_pairs

In a later patch we want to do more things before and after all filepairs are flushed. So factor flushing out all file pairs into its own function that the new code can be plugged in easily.

[PATCH 08/26] diff.c: migrate emit_line_checked to use emit_diff_symbol

Add a new flags field to emit_diff_symbol, that will be used by
context lines for:
* white space rules that are applicable (The first 12 bits)
* how the rules are evaluated (actually this double encodes the sign
  of the line, but the code is easier to keep this way, bits 13,14,15)
* if the line a blank line at EOF (bit 16)

This is a bit unsatisfactory that the original code didn't even have to make a call to new_blank_line_at_eof() at all when we know we are not checking for / coloring whitespace errors, but the function is called unconditionally in the new code.

Hopefully this is a safe conversion, as everything should come from parse_ws_error_highlight() that uses these constants.

But this is brittle; there must be some hint to future readers of this code why these bits begin at 12th (it is linked to 07777 we saw earlier); otherwise when they change something that needs to widen that 07777, they will forget to shift these up, which would screw up everything that is carefully laid out here.

We could check if we do colored output here, I think'll just do that for now, but on the other hand this becomes a maintenance nightmare when we rely on these flags in the future e.g. for "machine parse-able coloring" and would markup according to the flags strictly. I guess we can fix it then.

I reviewed the conversion again and I think it is safe, still.

We could do the up and downshifting for the flags to keep these as-is, but I am not sure if that is a good idea, the up and downshifting is not just run time complexity but also a readability issue.

I added a note there. and a BUG check at the beginning of the output. Smart compilers will drop that and for dumb compilers we'll have an extra check per commit, which is not too bad

Actually that function already has some quick return:
static int new_blank_line_at_eof(struct emit_callback *ecbdata, const
char *line, int len)
{
    if (!((ecbdata->ws_rule & WS_BLANK_AT_EOF) &&
         ecbdata->blank_at_eof_in_preimage &&
         ecbdata->blank_at_eof_in_postimage &&
         ecbdata->blank_at_eof_in_preimage <= ecbdata->lno_in_preimage &&
         ecbdata->blank_at_eof_in_postimage <= ecbdata->lno_in_postimage))
                  return 0;
    return ws_blank_line(line, len, ecbdata->ws_rule);
}

so maybe we could 'inline' it, as there is no reasonable faster check than what we have in there.

I'll keep it 'a bit unsatisfactory' here and if it actually is a performance issue, we can fix it.

I wouldn't call the first if() statement "quick return". It probably weighs as much as ws_blank_line() itself, which is not that expensive.

Even though new_blank_line_at_eof() may have been coded efficiently and not very expensive as a whole, the fact remains that it didn't get called when we know it was unneeded, and it now will get called before we figure out if it is necessary.

And that is why I said it is a bit unsatisfactory (as opposed to "horrible" or with other more severe adjective).

I think that a constant should be defined for this flag, just like for content lines. If not it is not immediately obvious that a flag should be set for the +++ lines.

Also this is somewhat misnamed in that a call to it only deals with one half of a filepair, iow, the caller must call it twice to show a single filepair.

Split into two and renamed to DIFF_SYMBOL_FILEPAIR_PLUS and DIFF_SYMBOL_FILEPAIR_MINUS.

As the first patch in the "diff-symbol" subseries of this topic, this change must seriously be justified. Why is it so important that a printing of an empty line must be moved to a helper function, which later will gain ability to show other kind of lines?

I looked through out code base and for enums this is actually strictly enforced, so I guess I have to play by the rules here as I do not want to be the first to deviate from an upheld standard.

This will be painful though as the next ~20 patches add more symbols mostly at the end, maybe I need to restructure that such that the last symbol stays the same throughout the series. Thanks for that thought.

Ah yes. This got lost in comparison to the currently queued series with diff_lines. The justification for the change was in the buffer patch, but now we need to have the justification here.

In the old series, I had copied the same text in all these refactoring patches, but thought to delete them in this series. The first refactoring patch makes sense though.

Thanks, Stefan

Yes, this mostly-no-op one added in the first patch can be kept always at the end.

You sound like you are trying to find an excuse "not to play by the rules". Don't.

When the rules are not yielding best results, adapting the rules should be considered. And having no comma at the last element produces review noise when working in a line oriented format, such as diffs. (Add another element at the end, and then you have to have the diff that just changes the comma)

  C99 allows a trailing comma to follow the last enumeration
  constant initializer within an enumeration type declaration,
  similar to structure member initialization lists.
  C99: §6.7.2.2
  For struct member lists we already do that, e.g.
  builtin/help.c: struct common_guides[]
  builtin/repack.c: struct exts[]
  ...

Yet, I will construct this series in a resend to not have this issue.

Thanks, Stefan

I do not think anybody is saying that it is unreasonable to have a wish that it would be wonderful if we could use C99 features.

Trailing comma at the end of enum is the least interesting addition (it is a fix for a previous editions' brown-paper-bag mistake). I'd be delighted if we can drop support for older compilers and start using designated initializers, for example.

Finding other's violation of the current coding guideline is *not* the right way to promote for that future, however.

In practice it is, though.

Due to the nature of this project we cannot obtain a world view of our users (and compilers used), such that it is impossible to say when the last usage with a strict C89 happens.

If however there is code violating the C89 style for a long enough time and nobody speaks up, we can assume we can safely upgrade to C99.

To do this in a controlled (ideal) way, we would have a single location in the code where we'd use a new desired feature from C99, such that a "rollback" to strict C89 is easy either by reverting to the old style or even just reverting a commit as the occurrence was in a dummy file.

By violating the style guide in more than just one place this is cumbersome and should not be done, which is why I said I will not do it in this series.

Thanks, Stefan

I don't think this is strictly enforced. If you look at grep.h:197 the enum 'grep_source_type' has a trailing comma.

OK, so we now know that at least since e1327023 ("grep: refactor the concept of "grep source" into an object", 2012-02-02) we haven't heard from anybody whose compiler fails to grok this.

Perhaps we should start pushing for C99 features?

Yeah for a second I thought I introduced the trailing comma when i added recursion to grep...but you're right, looking at blame shows that the trailing comma has been there for much longer.

And I'm all for moving to C99 :)

[PATCH 15/26] submodule.c: migrate diff output to use emit_diff_symbol

As the submodule process is no longer attached to the same stdout as the superprojects process, we need to pass coloring explicitly.

Remove the colors from the function signatures, as all the coloring decisions will be made either inside the child process or the final emit_diff_symbol.

Re: [PATCH 15/26] submodule.c: migrate diff output to use emit_diff_symbol

I found this confusing - what difference does the stdout make? If they were the same stdout, one process could set a color for the other process to follow, but it wouldn't be able to affect color changes inside the output, right?

> Remove the colors from the function signatures, as all the coloring

This seems to be of the same pattern as the others. I would write this as:

    Create diff_emit_submodule_.* functions that make its own coloring
    decisions and migrate submodule.c to use them. This centralizes
    diff output, including coloring information, in one file.
or something like that.

[PATCH 17/26] diff.c: convert show_stats to use emit_diff_symbol

We call print_stat_summary from builtin/apply, so we still need the version with a file pointer, so introduce print_stat_summary_0 that uses emit_string machinery and keep print_stat_summary with the same arguments around.

Why is this one a fprintf call instead of an emit_line call? I'm sure this is intended It just stands out to me.

I am sure it is unintended to stand out in such a way. Originally I wanted to make it as close 1:1 conversion, and as we did not emit the line prefix at the time but relied on the line prefix being emitted prior to when this was printed. Will convert to emit_line as that seems to be a bug in this patch.

[PATCH 18/26] diff.c: convert word diffing to use emit_diff_symbol

The word diffing is not line oriented and would need some serious effort to be transformed into a line oriented approach, so just go with a symbol DIFF_SYMBOL_WORD_DIFF that is a partial line.

Re: [showing-off RFC/PATCH 26/26] diff.c: have a "machine parseable" move coloring

On Tue, Jun 20 2017, Stefan Beller jotted:

I played around with this a bit, it would be great to have something like this on top of --color-moved eventually. It's a lot easier to /^_ in a pager than looking for color codes.

Of course it's diff-incompatible output, but it's fair enough to have that hidden behind some option IMO.

Perhaps. Once we start adding things other than + and -, I think they should no longer be called "sign", though.

If Stefan chose '*' as a replacement for '+' because both makes things larger (yes, I am a positive person and my numbers are all positive), probably the replacement for '-' should be '/' (or '%'), not '_'. But that is just bikeshedding.

Well 'sign' is currently meant as a mathematical operation, but it could also be meant as a street sign?

The empty sign ' ' tells you it is context, and not subject to bikeshedding whilst reviewing a patch. :)

I was trying to choose characters that sort of resembled the shape, but slightly differently. But a machine would not care any ways.

There was also temptation to use bogus signs like 'M' and 'm' for moved (capital M for + and lower m for -, obviously).

But this is a proof of concept on top of the series showing that this way with bits set in the flags field we do not need to have colors. The older series was operating on the colors and by that figuring out if it was say at a boundary, but here we would just use the flagbits to come up with a reasonable first character. (for example: Would the machine parse-able format also care about dimming? I defer such a discussion in the future.)

[PATCH 21/26] diff.c: buffer all output if asked to

Introduce a new option 'emitted_symbols' in the struct diff_options which controls whether all output is buffered up until all output is available. It is set internally in diff.c when necessary.

We'll have a new struct 'emitted_string' in diff.c which will be used to buffer each line. The emitted_string will duplicate the memory of the line to buffer as that is easiest to reason about for now. In a future patch we may want to decrease the memory usage by not duplicating all output for buffering but rather we may want to store offsets into the file or in case of hunk descriptions such as the similarity score, we could just store the relevant number and reproduce the text later on.

This approach was chosen as a first step because it is quite simple compared to the alternative with less memory footprint.

emit_diff_symbol factors out the emission part and depending on the diff_options->emitted_symbols the emission will be performed directly when calling emit_diff_symbol or after the whole process is done, i.e. by buffering we have add the possibility for a second pass over the whole output before doing the actual output.

In 6440d34 (2012-03-14, diff: tweak a _copy_ of diff_options with word-diff) we introduced a duplicate diff options struct for word emissions as we may have different regex settings in there. When buffering the output, we need to operate on just one buffer, so we have to copy back the emissions of the word buffer into the main buffer.

Unconditionally enable output via buffer in this patch as it yields a great opportunity for testing, i.e. all the diff tests from the test suite pass without having reordering issues (i.e. only parts of the output got buffered, and we forgot to buffer other parts). The test suite passes, which gives confidence that we converted all functions to use emit_string for output.

[PATCH 23/26] diff.c: color moved lines differently, plain mode

Add the 'plain' mode for move detection of code. This omits the checking for adjacent blocks, so it is not as useful. If you have a lot of the same blocks moved in the same patch, the 'Zebra' would end up slow as it is O(n^2) (n is number of same blocks). So this may be useful there and is generally easy to add

[PATCH 22/26] diff.c: color moved lines differently

When a patch consists mostly of moving blocks of code around, it can be quite tedious to ensure that the blocks are moved verbatim, and not undesirably modified in the move. To that end, color blocks that are moved within the same patch differently. For example (OM, del, add, and NM are different colors):

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OM]  -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OM]  -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OM]  -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NM]  +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NM]  +                        multiple,
    [NM]  +                        lines);
    [NM]  +}

However adjacent blocks may be problematic. For example, in this potentially malicious patch, the swapping of blocks can be spotted:

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OMA] -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OMA] -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OMA] -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NMA] +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NMA] +                        multiple,
    [NMA] +                        lines);
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NMA] +}

If the moved code is larger, it is easier to hide some permutation in the code, which is why some alternative coloring is needed.

This patch implements the first mode:
* basic alternating 'Zebra' mode
  This conveys all information needed to the user.  Defer customization to
  later patches.

First I implemented an alternative design, which would try to fingerprint a line by its neighbors to detect if we are in a block or at the boundary. This idea iss error prone as it inspected each line and its neighboring lines to determine if the line was (a) moved and (b) if was deep inside a hunk by having matching neighboring lines. This is unreliable as the we can construct hunks which have equal neighbors that just exceed the number of lines inspected. (Think of 'AXYZBXYZCXYZD..' with each letter as a line, that is permutated to AXYZCXYZBXYZD..').

Instead this provides a dynamic programming greedy algorithm that finds the largest moved hunk and then has several modes on highlighting bounds.

A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff': In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0. All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

Re: [PATCH 22/26] diff.c: color moved lines differently

I just glanced through this file, because it seems similar to the versions I have previously reviewed.

I'll skip patches 23 onwards in this round of review because (i) I would be happy if just patches 1-22 were included in the tree and (ii) those patches might end up changing anyway because of review comments in the prior patches.

This should probably be DIFF_SYMBOL_MOVED_LINE_ALT. "Zebra" refers to both the stripes, not just the alternate stripe.

Yes, this has not changed much. The thing that took so long were patches 1-20 to do. In these later patches (22) the UX was changed slightly. The mode is zebra instead of alternating for example

patch 22 just introduced the zebra mode, which contains all information necessary, the later "dimming" is purely UI excitement, no further information added.

In former series, I had documentation at each patch that added a new mode, now I rolled all of documentation in patch 25. I will add the basic docs to that patch in a reroll.

plain, dimming, docs, and this RFC for machine parsable output, ok with me.

So I'll focus on the first 22 patches.

It is curious why the "line" is defined to be "A and B" here. It could have been defined to be the whole string "Binary files A and B differ" or even with the terminating LF.

And with that it may have been able to share concepts with the "HEADER" we see above. SYMBOL_HEADER becomes "oneline without prefix", and this one (updated to make the caller prepare the whole sentence) becomes "oneline with prefix".

I thought about saving memory in the buffered operation, but for simplicity it may be better to make them the same. Then they can even share the implementation. With that thought, I'll check more different symbols to share the same implementation.

[PATCH 01/26] diff.c: readability fix

We already have dereferenced 'p->two' into a local variable 'two'. Use that.

[PATCHv2 00/25] reroll of sb/diff-color-moved

v2:
* addressed all issues raised
* last patch dropped (WIP/RFC: diff.c: have a "machine parseable" move coloring)
* interdiff below
v1:
This is a complete rewrite of the series. Highlights:
* instead of buffering partial lines, we'll pretend all diff output
  follows a well defined grammar, and we emit symbols thereof.
  (The difference is mostly mental, though by this trick we reduce
  the memory footprint for storing one of these symbols from 7 variables
  (3 pointers, 3 ints, one state (also int) down to 4 variables
  (one pointer, 2 ints, one state).
* The algorithm for color painting was detangled:
  -> different functions for block detection and dimming
  -> The last patch (not to be applied) is an RFC that shows
     how we would approach non-colored, but machine parseable highlighting
     of moved lines.

Thanks, Stefan

[PATCHv2 02/25] diff.c: move line ending check into emit_hunk_header

The emit_hunk_header() function is responsible for assembling a hunk header and calling emit_line() to send the hunk header to the output file. Its only caller fn_out_consume() needs to prepare for a case where the function emits an incomplete line and add the terminating LF.

Instead make sure emit_hunk_header() to always send a completed line to emit_line().

[PATCHv2 04/25] diff.c: introduce emit_diff_symbol

In a later patch we want to buffer all output before emitting it as a new feature ("markup moved lines") conceptually cannot be implemented in a single pass over the output.

There are different approaches to buffer all output such as:
* Buffering on the char level, i.e. we'd have a char[] which would
  grow at approximately 80 characters a line. This would keep the
  output completely unstructured, but might be very easy to implement,
  such as redirecting all output to a temporary file and working off
  that. The later passes over the buffer are quite complicated though,
  because we have to parse back any output and then decide if it should
  be modified.
* Buffer on a line level. As the output is mostly line oriented already,
  this would make sense, but it still is a bit awkward as we'd have to
  make sense of it again by looking at the first characters of a line
  to decide what part of a diff a line is.
* Buffer semantically. Imagine there is a formal grammar for the diff
  output and we'd keep the symbols of this grammar around. This keeps
  the highest level of structure in the buffered data, such that the
  actual memory requirements are less than say the first option. Instead
  of buffering the characters of the line, we'll buffer what we intend
  to do plus additional information for the specifics. An output of
    diff --git a/new.txt b/new.txt
    index fa69b07..412428c 100644
    Binary files a/new.txt and b/new.txt differ
  could be buffered as
     DIFF_SYMBOL_DIFF_START + new.txt
     DIFF_SYMBOL_INDEX_MODE + fa69b07 412428c "non-executable" flag
     DIFF_SYMBOL_BINARY_FILES + new.txt

This and the following patches introduce the third option of buffering by first moving any output to emit_diff_symbol, and then introducing the buffering in this function.

Hopefully this is an oversimplified example and I'd assume that you will do the right thing when showing a renamed filepair by allowing both old and new paths that could be different?

Yes, this is simplified to drive the point of having as little data as possible, so I thought we might have a flag that says "same file name" instead of giving the file name twice.

We do not do such an optimization yet.

[PATCHv2 13/25] diff.c: emit_diff_symbol learns about DIFF_SYMBOL_BINARY_FILES

we could save a little bit of memory when buffering in a later mode by just passing the inner part ("%s and %s", file1, file 2), but those a just a few bytes, so instead let's reuse the implementation from DIFF_SYMBOL_HEADER and keep the whole line around.

The header is constructed lazily including line breaks, so just emit the raw string as is.

[PATCHv2 23/25] diff.c: color moved lines differently, plain mode

Add the 'plain' mode for move detection of code. This omits the checking for adjacent blocks, so it is not as useful. If you have a lot of the same blocks moved in the same patch, the 'Zebra' would end up slow as it is O(n^2) (n is number of same blocks). So this may be useful there and is generally easy to add

[PATCHv2 22/25] diff.c: color moved lines differently

When a patch consists mostly of moving blocks of code around, it can be quite tedious to ensure that the blocks are moved verbatim, and not undesirably modified in the move. To that end, color blocks that are moved within the same patch differently. For example (OM, del, add, and NM are different colors):

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OM]  -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OM]  -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OM]  -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NM]  +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NM]  +                        multiple,
    [NM]  +                        lines);
    [NM]  +}

However adjacent blocks may be problematic. For example, in this potentially malicious patch, the swapping of blocks can be spotted:

    [OM]  -void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [OM]  -{
    [OMA] -        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [OMA] -                die("unauthorized");
    [OM]  -        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [OM]  -                        multiple,
    [OM]  -                        lines);
    [OMA] -}
           void another_function()
           {
    [del] -        printf("foo");
    [add] +        printf("bar");
           }
    [NM]  +void sensitive_stuff(void)
    [NM]  +{
    [NMA] +        sensitive_stuff(spanning,
    [NMA] +                        multiple,
    [NMA] +                        lines);
    [NM]  +        if (!is_authorized_user())
    [NM]  +                die("unauthorized");
    [NMA] +}

If the moved code is larger, it is easier to hide some permutation in the code, which is why some alternative coloring is needed.

This patch implements the first mode:
* basic alternating 'Zebra' mode
  This conveys all information needed to the user.  Defer customization to
  later patches.

First I implemented an alternative design, which would try to fingerprint a line by its neighbors to detect if we are in a block or at the boundary. This idea iss error prone as it inspected each line and its neighboring lines to determine if the line was (a) moved and (b) if was deep inside a hunk by having matching neighboring lines. This is unreliable as the we can construct hunks which have equal neighbors that just exceed the number of lines inspected. (Think of 'AXYZBXYZCXYZD..' with each letter as a line, that is permutated to AXYZCXYZBXYZD..').

Instead this provides a dynamic programming greedy algorithm that finds the largest moved hunk and then has several modes on highlighting bounds.

A note on the options '--submodule=diff' and '--color-words/--word-diff': In the conversion to use emit_line in the prior patches both submodules as well as word diff output carefully chose to call emit_line with sign=0. All output with sign=0 is ignored for move detection purposes in this patch, such that no weird looking output will be generated for these cases. This leads to another thought: We could pass on '--color-moved' to submodules such that they color up moved lines for themselves. If we'd do so only line moves within a repository boundary are marked up.

[PATCHv2 15/25] submodule.c: migrate diff output to use emit_diff_symbol

As the submodule process is no longer attached to the same file pointer 'o->file' as the superprojects process, there is a different result in color.c::check_auto_color. That is why we need to pass coloring explicitly, such that the submodule coloring decision will be made by the child process processing the submodule. Only DIFF_SYMBOL_SUBMODULE_PIPETHROUGH contains color, the other symbols are for embedding the submodule output into the superprojects output.

Remove the colors from the function signatures, as all the coloring decisions will be made either inside the child process or the final emit_diff_symbol, but not in the functions driving the submodule diff.

[PATCHv2 11/25] diff.c: emit_diff_symbol learns DIFF_SYMBOL_FILEPAIR_{PLUS, MINUS}

We have to use fprintf instead of emit_line, because we want to emit the tab after the color. This is important for ancient versions of gnu patch AFAICT, although we probably do not want to feed colored output to the patch utility, such that it would not matter if the trailing tab is colored. Keep the corner case as-is though.

[PATCHv2 21/25] diff.c: buffer all output if asked to

Introduce a new option 'emitted_symbols' in the struct diff_options which controls whether all output is buffered up until all output is available. It is set internally in diff.c when necessary.

We'll have a new struct 'emitted_string' in diff.c which will be used to buffer each line. The emitted_string will duplicate the memory of the line to buffer as that is easiest to reason about for now. In a future patch we may want to decrease the memory usage by not duplicating all output for buffering but rather we may want to store offsets into the file or in case of hunk descriptions such as the similarity score, we could just store the relevant number and reproduce the text later on.

This approach was chosen as a first step because it is quite simple compared to the alternative with less memory footprint.

emit_diff_symbol factors out the emission part and depending on the diff_options->emitted_symbols the emission will be performed directly when calling emit_diff_symbol or after the whole process is done, i.e. by buffering we have add the possibility for a second pass over the whole output before doing the actual output.

In 6440d34 (2012-03-14, diff: tweak a _copy_ of diff_options with word-diff) we introduced a duplicate diff options struct for word emissions as we may have different regex settings in there. When buffering the output, we need to operate on just one buffer, so we have to copy back the emissions of the word buffer into the main buffer.

Unconditionally enable output via buffer in this patch as it yields a great opportunity for testing, i.e. all the diff tests from the test suite pass without having reordering issues (i.e. only parts of the output got buffered, and we forgot to buffer other parts). The test suite passes, which gives confidence that we converted all functions to use emit_string for output.

[PATCHv2 08/25] diff.c: migrate emit_line_checked to use emit_diff_symbol

Add a new flags field to emit_diff_symbol, that will be used by
context lines for:
* white space rules that are applicable (The first 12 bits)
  Take a note in cahe.c as well, when this ws rules are extended we have
  to fix the bits in the flags field.
* how the rules are evaluated (actually this double encodes the sign
  of the line, but the code is easier to keep this way, bits 13,14,15)
* if the line a blank line at EOF (bit 16)

The check if new lines need to be marked up as extra lines at the end of file, is now done unconditionally. That should be ok, as 'new_blank_line_at_eof' has a quick early return.

[PATCHv2 18/25] diff.c: convert word diffing to use emit_diff_symbol

The word diffing is not line oriented and would need some serious effort to be transformed into a line oriented approach, so just go with a symbol DIFF_SYMBOL_WORD_DIFF that is a partial line.

[PATCHv2 17/25] diff.c: convert show_stats to use emit_diff_symbol

We call print_stat_summary from builtin/apply, so we still need the version with a file pointer, so introduce print_stat_summary_0 that uses emit_string machinery and keep print_stat_summary with the same arguments around.
