19 years ago[PATCH] show-diff show deleted files as diff as well.

[PATCH] show-diff show deleted files as diff as well.

The ideas is that using the show-diff to generate the
patch including deleted and new file (in the next patch).
So we don't have to do the temp new file diff dance on the
script.

The cache index now contain enough information to generate
the whole patch. So the GIT SCM don't need separate command
for check out file to edit or delete. Just do the edit and
remove and GIT will generate the correct patch.

It still require tell GIT to add new files.

Remove the annoying "ok" printout from show-diff.

It used to be useful before I wrote "show-files", so that
show-diff would also tell what the cached files were. Now
it's just annoying.

19 years agoMake the rev-tree output more regular. This is the last
Linus Torvalds [Tue, 12 Apr 2005 00:40:58 +0000 (17:40 -0700)]
Make the rev-tree output more regular. This is the last
change. Promise.

It now always outputs all the revisions as <sha1>:<reachability>, where the
reachability is the bitmask of how that revision was reachable from the
commits in the argument list.

Trivially, if there is only one commit, the reachability will always be
(1 << 0) == 1 for all reachable revisions, and there won't be any edges
(so the "--edges" flag only makes sense with multiple commit keys).

19 years agoMake "rev-tree" capable of showing the difference in reachability between two

Make "rev-tree" capable of showing the difference in reachability between two

This is important both to know what the difference between two commit
points is, but also to figure out where to try to merge from.

Slight change of output format: it now lists all parents on the same line.

This allows it to work on initial commits too (which have no parents), and
also makes the output format a lot more intuitive.

Add a "rev-tree" helper, which calculates the revision
tree graph.

It's quite fast when the commit-objects are cached, but since
it has to walk every single commit-object, it also allows you
to cache an old state and just add on top of that.
