From: Linus Torvalds Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2005 22:34:19 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Use "-M" instead of "-C" for "git diff" and "git status" X-Git-Tag: v0.99~256 X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=753fd78458b6d7d0e65ce0ebe7b62e1bc55f3992;p=git.git Use "-M" instead of "-C" for "git diff" and "git status" The "C" in "-C" may stand for "Cool", but it's also pretty slow, since right now it leaves all unmodified files to be tested even if there are no new files at all. That just ends up being unacceptably slow for big projects, especially if it's not all in the cache. --- diff --git a/git-diff-script b/git-diff-script index d70e8b9f2..673853b9c 100755 --- a/git-diff-script +++ b/git-diff-script @@ -3,13 +3,13 @@ rev=($(git-rev-parse --revs-only "$@")) flags=($(git-rev-parse --no-revs "$@")) case "${#rev[*]}" in 0) - git-diff-files -p "$@";; + git-diff-files -M -p "$@";; 1) - git-diff-cache -p "$@";; + git-diff-cache -M -p "$@";; 2) begin=$(echo "${rev[1]}" | tr -d '^') end="${rev[0]}" - git-diff-tree -p $flags $begin $end;; + git-diff-tree -M -p $flags $begin $end;; *) echo "I don't understand" exit 1;; diff --git a/git-status-script b/git-status-script index f91bb5589..7d47fdea7 100755 --- a/git-status-script +++ b/git-status-script @@ -27,7 +27,7 @@ report () { } git-update-cache --refresh >& /dev/null -git-diff-cache -B -C --cached HEAD | sed 's/^://' | report "Updated but not checked in" "will commit" +git-diff-cache -M --cached HEAD | sed 's/^://' | report "Updated but not checked in" "will commit" committable="$?" git-diff-files | sed 's/^://' | report "Changed but not updated" "use git-update-cache to mark for commit" if [ "$committable" == "0" ]
