[PATCH 0/4] report chmod'ed binary files the same as text files

[Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]

This patch series fixes a small discrepancy between the way that
text files and binary files are treated. Reported by Martin Mareš in [1].
Firt patch is cleanup, second describes current behaviour, third does
the change, and fourth is a bonus micro-opt.

[PATCH 2/4] tests: check --[short]stat output after chmod

[Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]

Add a test to check 'diff --stat' output with a text file after chmod,
and the same for a binary file. This demonstrates that text and binary
files are treated differently, which can be misleading.

While at it, duplicate the tests to check --shortstat output too.

[PATCH 3/4] diff --stat: report chmoded binary files like text files

[Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]

Binary files chmoded without content change were reported as if they
were rewritten. At the same time, text files in the same situation
were reported as "unchanged". Let's treat binary files like text files
here, and simply say that they are unchanged.

For text files, we knew that they were unchanged if the numbers of
lines added and deleted were both 0. For binary files this metric does
not make sense and is not calculated, so a new way of conveying this
information is needed. A new flag is_unchanged is added in struct
diffstat_t that is set if the contents of both files are identical.
For consistency, this new flag is used both for text files and binary
files.

Output of --shortstat is modified in the same way.

[PATCH 4/4] diff --stat: do not run diff on indentical files

[Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek]

If sha1's are equal, then there's no point in performing the diff.

In a very unscientific test:

git init &&
  dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M count=30 | hexdump >file1 &&
  git add file1 && git commit -m 'add file' &&
  git mv file1 file1-moved && chmod +x file1-moved &&
  command time git diff --stat

(before) git diff --stat  2.00s user 0.31s system 99% cpu 2.323 total
(after)  git diff --stat  0.80s user 0.10s system 98% cpu 0.913 total

Style update is welcome, but shouldn't the assignment to sed_script
be done in the second test if it is the only user?  If you are going to
add more tests at the end, then it should be away from the second test to
make it clear that it is not part of it.

Thanks.

The name is somewhat misleading, as a filepair that consists of two blobs
with the same contents with different mode bits is still "changed", and
you are trying to say that they have the same contents.

I am not sure if all these hunks are needed.  If you are going to show
only "  Bin\n" for a filepair with the same binary contents, perhaps it is
simpler to set added/deleted fields of such a filepair to 0?  Then most of
the hunks in this patch can disappear, no?

Please write it as "!hashcmp(a, b)", not "hashcmp(a, b) == 0".

In any case, how about doing it like this instead?

Yeah, this is much nicer.

On top of this, 4/4 becomes:
-       else {
+       else if (hashcmp(one->sha1, two->sha1)) {
and the time improvement is the same (0.8 vs 2.0 s).

Do you want me to resend with your replacement patch?

Hi,
$sed_script is indeed only used in that one test. But moving the
assignment inside would complicate the quoting rules (the script is now
quoted with ', but this would have to change inside the test case which
is quoted with ' too). I actually think it's simpler this way.

Thanks,
Zbyszek

Please squash in this fixup; we do not have /dev/zero on Windows.
