From: Linus Torvalds Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2006 22:47:30 +0000 (-0800) Subject: rev-list: stop when the file disappears X-Git-Tag: v1.2.0~100^2~1 X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=461cf59f8924f174d7a0dcc3d77f576d93ed29a4;p=git.git rev-list: stop when the file disappears The one thing I've considered doing (I really should) is to add a "stop when you don't find the file" option to "git-rev-list". This patch does some of the work towards that: it removes the "parent" thing when the file disappears, so a "git annotate" could do do something like git-rev-list --remove-empty --parents HEAD -- "$filename" and it would get a good graph that stops when the filename disappears (it's not perfect though: it won't remove all the unintersting commits). It also simplifies the logic of finding tree differences a bit, at the cost of making it a tad less efficient. The old logic was two-phase: it would first simplify _only_ merges tree as it traversed the tree, and then simplify the linear parts of the remainder independently. That was pretty optimal from an efficiency standpoint because it avoids doing any comparisons that we can see are unnecessary, but it made it much harder to understand than it really needed to be. The new logic is a lot more straightforward, and compares the trees as it traverses the graph (ie everything is a single phase). That makes it much easier to stop graph traversal at any point where a file disappears. As an example, let's say that you have a git repository that has had a file called "A" some time in the past. That file gets renamed to B, and then gets renamed back again to A. The old "git-rev-list" would show two commits: the commit that renames B to A (because it changes A) _and_ as its parent the commit that renames A to B (because it changes A). With the new --remove-empty flag, git-rev-list will show just the commit that renames B to A as the "root" commit, and stop traversal there (because that's what you want for "annotate" - you want to stop there, and for every "root" commit you then separately see if it really is a new file, or if the paths history disappeared because it was renamed from some other file). With this patch, you should be able to basically do a "poor mans 'git annotate'" with a fairly simple loop: push("HEAD", "$filename") while (revision,filename = pop()) { for each i in $(git-rev-list --parents --remove-empty $revision -- "$filename") pseudo-parents($i) = git-rev-list parents for that line if (pseudo-parents($i) is non-empty) { show diff of $i against pseudo-parents continue } /* See if the _real_ parents of $i had a rename */ parent($i) = real-parent($i) if (find-rename in $parent($i)->$i) push $parent($i), "old-name" } which should be doable in perl or something (doing stacks in shell is just too painful to be worth it, so I'm not going to do this). Anybody want to try?
