[PATCH 0/5 v3] log and diff: accept detached forms (--option value)

[Matthieu Moy]

Since last version :

* I had missed several optional arguments, for which detached form
  should not be allowed (otherwise, --option --other-option is
  ambiguous). In most cases, my changes were harmless since the code
  had already checked for the parameterless form before reaching mine,
  but that was definitely bad anyway.

* One missing "return optarg;" (that even Jonathan had missed ;-) )

* One more test for "git log -S" failure (no argument to -S)

* Refactoring by Jonathan Nieder for --stat-*

* Rewording of commit messages.

Jonathan Nieder (1):
  diff: split off a function for --stat-* option parsing

Matthieu Moy (4):
  diff: parse detached options like -S foo
  diff: parse detached options --stat-width n, --stat-name-width n
  log: parse detached options like git log --grep foo
  log: parse detached option for --glob

[PATCH 1/5] diff: parse detached options like -S foo

[Matthieu Moy]

Change the option parsing logic in revision.c to accept detached forms
like `-S foo' in addition to `-Sfoo'. The rest of git already accepted
this form, but revision.c still used its own option parsing.

This patch does not handle --stat-name-width and --stat-width, which are
special-cases where diff_long_opt do not apply. They are handled in a
separate patch to ease review.

Original patch by Matthieu Moy, plus refactoring by Jonathan Nieder.

[PATCH 2/5] diff: split off a function for --stat-* option parsing

[Matthieu Moy]

From: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>

As an optimization, the diff_opt_parse() switchboard has
a single case for all the --stat-* options.  Split it
off into a separate function so we can enhance it
without bringing code dangerously close to the right
margin.

I think arg should be optarg in the string comparison, too.  Sorry I
didn’t notice last time.

I wonder why t3900 and t8005 do not catch this.

Curious,

Definitely, yes.

> Sorry I didn’t notice last time.

Ahem, sorry for making the bug in the first place ;-).

> I wonder why t3900 and t8005 do not catch this.

Good question. I don't understand exactly what's going on with commit
messages encoding, so I can't say.

Resend follows.

[PATCH 1/5 v4] diff: parse detached options like -S foo

[Matthieu Moy]

Change the option parsing logic in revision.c to accept detached forms
like `-S foo' in addition to `-Sfoo'. The rest of git already accepted
this form, but revision.c still used its own option parsing.

This patch does not handle --stat-name-width and --stat-width, which are
special-cases where diff_long_opt do not apply. They are handled in a
separate patch to ease review.

Original patch by Matthieu Moy, plus refactoring by Jonathan Nieder.

[PATCH 2/5 v4] diff: split off a function for --stat-* option parsing

[Matthieu Moy]

From: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>

As an optimization, the diff_opt_parse() switchboard has
a single case for all the --stat-* options.  Split it
off into a separate function so we can enhance it
without bringing code dangerously close to the right
margin.

Just a style thing, but I think "arg + 2" is much easier to read in this
particular case, as it won't risk tempting readers to go "Huh?  What does
that 'c' mean"?  I know the code wants to skip over an option that is a
single dash followed by a single byte and 'c' is just a placeholder for
that single unknown byte, but when the reader reaches that realization,
the reader already knows that the code wants to skip exactly two bytes,
no?  strlen("--") in diff_long_opt() is much easier to justify, though.  I
like the reduction of "arg + N"s that follow prefixcmp(arg, "--whatever")s
in diff_opt_parse() this patch gives us in general.  I just think the
above "-c" is overdoing it.

Do we have an option that can take a zero-length string as its value and
do something meaningful?  I don't think of any offhand ("log -S'' -p" is
not it---it may be meaningful but it is not useful), but this code would
start giving "-p" instead of "" to the option in such a case.

A longer option always required '=' before the value, so it won't share
the above issue (if it is an issue, that is).

Other than that minor style issue and a nagging -X<empty> worry, the
resulting code looks a lot nicer than the original.

Thanks.

This will accept "--stat-width=40", "--stat-width 40", and "--stat=40,20"
but not "--stat 40,20" --- am I reading the patch correctly?

Not a complaint but trying to double-check.  I think it is Ok not to try
guessing wrong (the user may be interested in a path 40,20, for example).

Thanks.

The patch overall looks good, and this comments illustrates the issue
rather well.  When the user wants to use "--longopt val" syntax, s/he
needs to know that "--longopt" will always take a value.  Arguably
majority of options that can take value will, but like "--stat X,Y" this
leaves things inconsistent.  Without "--longopt value" patch there won't
be such an inconsistency, but I think this patch series is lessor of two
evils.

Don't you by the way regret the naming of the parsing function by now?
There is nothing "diff" about it anymore.

Right. Same goes for all optional arguments, the sticky form is
required.

... especially when parse-option already does this:

git commit --message foo   => works
git gc --prune 'last week' => doesn't

Just like most GNU tools:

grep --regexp foo => works
grep --color auto => doesn't

Right. I'll rename them to "parse_long_opt".

I make it explicit in the commit message: only -S, -l and -O are
touched by my change among the one-letter options => no problem here.

Yeah, especially after the "if (arg[2] != ...)".  Thanks for a sanity
check.

 -l<num>:	"" is not a number.

 -S<artifact>:
		Could "" come up if a user tries to find a commit
		"Adding/removing string:" without typing a string to look
		for in gitk?  No, gitk protects against that.
		How about creating a view with an empty "Search string:"?
		No, that is protected against, too.

		Currently "git log -S" does not seem to do anything
		meaningful, anyway.

 -O<file>:	"" is not a file name.

Hmm.

Are you hinting that we should keep "you can say '-Ofoo' and '-O foo'"
bits but we should drop "you can also say '--opt=foo' and '--opt foo' as
long as --opt always takes an argument"?

I actually think that may make sense.

I'm not sure I parsed your sentence correctly, but if I did, then no,
I don't think we should drop separate forms when --opt always takes an
argument, just the opposite.

-O<string> => always accepted
-O <string> => OK if <string> is mandatory and always non-empty
--opt=<sting> => always accepted
--opt <string> => OK if <string> is mandatory (possibly empty)

My remark was that there's nothing very original here, what my patch
does is what other places of Git did, and that other common tools did
years before.

What I meant was somewhat different.  I agree that we _could_ take
separate "--opt <string>" form when --opt is known to always take an
argument without ambiguity (the same goes for "-O <string>").

But I thought you were suggesting to accept:

    -O<string>
    -O <string>
    --opt=<string>

but never take:

    --opt <string> (even when --opt always takes an argument)

because that would further reduce one source of potential confusion
(i.e. the user needs to remember if --opt always takes an argument or
not).  I thought you mentioned that neither parse-options nor GNU tools
take "--prune last", "--color auto" as a good supporting argument for
this---the users won't miss the "--opt <string>" feature because that is
not a common practice.

And I was agreeing to that.

No, I said the opposite: both do.

"grep --color auto" is refused because the "auto" part is optional.
But both "grep --regex foo" and "grep --regexp=foo" are accepted. Same
for "git commit --message=foo" and "git commit --message foo".

No, that would be not good -- GNU getopt_long supports that form, and
AFAICT, both the "--foo=bar" and "--foo bar" forms are widely used (I
certainly use both all the time), for roughly the same reasons both
"-Oarg" and "-O arg" are both common[*].

In the case of "optional-argument options", the "--foo bar" (and "-O
bar") form doesn't work, which is an unfortunate (but apparently
unavoidable) inconsistency, but optional-argument options are rare
enough that this doesn't really effect the usage patterns of more
conventional options.

[*] both forms are useful -- sometimes it's handy to bundle up the
option-argument with the option, e.g., when writing a throw-away script,
to avoid whitespace issues, but sometimes it's useful to keep it
separate, e.g. so that shell filename completion works on the
option-argument.
