I'm going to add "[EOF]" marker to test that command output is terminated by
newline char. This patch ensures that callers who expect a raw output string
would never be affected by any normalization passes.
Some common normalization functions are extracted as CommandOutputString
methods.
Certain tools (`diff`, `delta`) exit with code 1 to indicate there was
a difference. This allows selectively suppressing the "Tool exited with
... status" warning from jj when generating a diff.
example:
```toml
[merge.tools.delta]
diff-expected-exit-codes = [0, 1]
```
Both Mercurial and Git (xdiff) have a special case for empty hunks.

I also changed the internal line numbers to start from 0 so we wouldn't have
to think about whether "N - 1" would underflow.
Fixes#5049
I left the "merge-tool-edits-conflict-markers" option unchanged,
since removing it would likely break some existing configurations. It
also seems like it could be useful to have a merge tool use the default
conflict markers instead of requiring the conflict marker style to
always be set for the merge tool (e.g. if a merge tool allows the user
to manually edit the conflicts).
These flags only apply to line-based diffs. This is easy, and seems still useful
to highlight whitespace changes (that could be ignored by line diffing.)
I've added short options only to "diff"-like commands. It seemed unclear if
they were added to deeply-nested commands such as "op log".
Closes#3781
I played with max-inline-alternation = 3 for a couple of weeks, and it's pretty
good. I think somewhere between 2 and 4 is good default because one or two
remove + add sequences are easy to parse.
In this patch, I use the number of adds<->removes alternation as a threshold,
which approximates the visual complexity of diff hunks. I don't think user can
choose the threshold intuitively, but we need a config knob to try out some.
I set `max-inline-alternation = 3` locally. 0 and 1 mean "disable inlining"
and "inline adds-only/removes-only lines" respectively.
I've added "diff.<format>" config namespace assuming "ui.diff" will be
reorganized as "ui.diff-formatter" or something. #3327
Some other metrics I've tried:
```
// Per-line alternation. This also works well, but can't measure complexity of
// changes across lines.
fn count_max_diff_alternation_per_line(diff_lines: &[DiffLine]) -> usize {
diff_lines
.iter()
.map(|line| {
let sides = line.hunks.iter().map(|&(side, _)| side);
sides
.filter(|&side| side != DiffLineHunkSide::Both)
.dedup() // omit e.g. left->both->left
.count()
})
.max()
.unwrap_or(0)
}
// Per-line occupancy of changes. Large diffs don't always look complex.
fn max_diff_token_ratio_per_line(diff_lines: &[DiffLine]) -> f32 {
diff_lines
.iter()
.filter_map(|line| {
let [both_len, left_len, right_len] =
line.hunks.iter().fold([0, 0, 0], |mut acc, (side, data)| {
let index = match side {
DiffLineHunkSide::Both => 0,
DiffLineHunkSide::Left => 1,
DiffLineHunkSide::Right => 2,
};
acc[index] += data.len();
acc
});
// left/right-only change is readable
(left_len != 0 && right_len != 0).then(|| {
let diff_len = left_len + right_len;
let total_len = both_len + left_len + right_len;
(diff_len as f32) / (total_len as f32)
})
})
.reduce(f32::max)
.unwrap_or(0.0)
}
// Total occupancy of changes. Large diffs don't always look complex.
fn total_change_ratio(diff_lines: &[DiffLine]) -> f32 {
let (diff_len, total_len) = diff_lines
.iter()
.flat_map(|line| &line.hunks)
.fold((0, 0), |(diff_len, total_len), (side, data)| {
let l = data.len();
match side {
DiffLineHunkSide::Both => (diff_len, total_len + l),
DiffLineHunkSide::Left => (diff_len + l, total_len + l),
DiffLineHunkSide::Right => (diff_len + l, total_len + l),
}
});
(diff_len as f32) / (total_len as f32)
}

- add support for copy tracking to `diff --stat`
- switch `--summary` to match git's output more closely
- rework `show_diff_summary` signature to be more consistent
- force each diff command to explicitly enable copy tracking
- enable copy tracking in diff_summary
- post-process for diff iterator
- post-process for diff stream
- update changelog
It's inconvenient that we have to quote glob patterns as 'glob:"*.rs"'. Suppose
filesets are usually specified in shell, it's better to allow unquoted strings
if possible. This change also means we'll probably abandon #2101 "make the
parsing of string arguments stricter."
Note that we can no longer introduce ? operator or [] subscript syntax in
filesets.
Closes#4053
This not only makes the output easier to read, but also protects against
implementation detail changes in `write!` when used with a format
string (especially, how many times and with what strings it calls the
underlying writer).
The output looks somewhat similar to color-words diffs. Unified diffs are
verbose, but are easier to follow if adjacent lines are added/removed + modified
for example.
Word-level diffing is forcibly enabled. We can also add a config knob (or
!color condition) to turn it off to save CPU time.
I originally considered disabling highlights in block insertion/deletion, but
that wasn't always great. This can be addressed separately as it also applies
to color-words diffs. #3958
