git-diff --numstat -z: make it machine readable

2007-12-12T18:59:22+00:00

The "-z" format is all about machine parsability, but showing renamed
paths as "common/{a => b}/suffix" makes it impossible.  The scripts would
never have successfully parsed "--numstat -z -M" in the old format.

This fixes the output format in a (hopefully minimally) backward
incompatible way.

 * The output without -z is not changed.  This has given a good way for
   humans to view added and deleted lines separately, and showing the
   path in combined, shorter way would preserve readability.

 * The output with -z is unchanged for paths that do not involve renames.
   Existing scripts that do not pass -M/-C are not affected at all.

 * The output with -z for a renamed path is shown in a format that can
   easily be distinguished from an unrenamed path.

This is based on Jakub Narebski's patch.  Bugs and documentation typos
are mine.

git-diff.txt: add section "output format" describing the diff formats

2007-11-02T00:07:22+00:00

git-diff.txt includes diff-options.txt which for the -p option refers
to a section "generating patches.." which is missing from the git-diff
documentation.  This patch adapts diff-format.txt to additionally
mention the git-diff program, and includes diff-format.txt into
git-diff.txt.

Tino Keitel noticed this problem.

diff: round down similarity index

2007-06-25T08:51:21+00:00

Rounding down the printed (dis)similarity index allows us to use
"100%" as a special value that indicates complete rewrites and
fully equal file contents, respectively.

War on whitespace

2007-06-07T07:04:01+00:00

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have
crept in to our source files over time.  There are a few files that need
to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors).  The results
still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.
