Subject: [PATCH 2/2] difftool --dir-diff: symlink all files matching the working tree
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2013 20:33:09 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <796eafb6816b302c87873c8f4a1bd2225ce40c55.1363206651.git.john@keeping.me.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1363206651.git.john@keeping.me.uk>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1363206651.git.john@keeping.me.uk>
Some users like to edit files in their diff tool when using "git
difftool --dir-diff --symlink" to compare against the working tree but
difftool currently only created symlinks when a file contains unstaged
changes.
Change this behaviour so that symlinks are created whenever the
right-hand side of the comparison has the same SHA1 as the file in the
working tree.
Note that textconv filters are handled in the same way as by git-diff
and if a clean filter is not the inverse of its smudge filter we already
get a null SHA1 from "diff --raw" and will symlink the file without
going through the new hash-object based check.
