Subject: [PATCH 1/3] revision: move -L setup before output_format-to-diff derivation
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 04:05:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9633eb62c620c7935f4e0aa87cae8808a6128c26.1777349126.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2094.git.1777349126.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Michael Montalbo <mmontalbo@gmail.com>
The line_level_traverse block sets a default DIFF_FORMAT_PATCH when
no output format has been explicitly requested. This default must
be visible to the "Did the user ask for any diff output?" check
that derives revs->diff from revs->diffopt.output_format.
Currently the -L block runs after that derivation, so revs->diff
stays 0 when no explicit format is given. This does not matter yet
because log_tree_commit() short-circuits into line_log_print()
before consulting revs->diff, but the next commit will route -L
through the normal log_tree_diff() path, which checks revs->diff.
Move the block above the derivation so the default DIFF_FORMAT_PATCH
is in place when revs->diff is computed. No behavior change on its
own.
