Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Falling back "diff -C -C" to "diff -C" more gracefully
Date: Thu,  6 Jan 2011 13:50:03 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1294350606-19530-1-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <7vhbdlahnp.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org>

In a project with many paths, "diff -C -C" may have too many rename source
candidates (as it tries to use all existing paths) but the rename source
candidates "diff -C" would use may still fit under the rename detection
limit.  Currently, we punt and disable the inexact rename detection
altogether even in such a case.

This weatherballoon series illustrates how diffcore-rename can be tweaked
to allow "-C -C" to fall back to "-C".  Somebody should write a test, but
not today ;-).

Junio C Hamano (3):
  diffcore-rename: refactor "too many candidates" logic
  diffcore-rename: record filepair for rename src
  diffcore-rename: fall back to -C when -C -C busts the rename limit
