b145b211ba git-add--interactive: never skip files included in index
Make "git add -p" to not skip files that are in index even if they are
excluded (by .gitignore etc.). This fixes the contradictory behavior
that "git status" and "git commit -a" listed such files as modified, but
"git add -p FILENAME" ignored them.

dda1f2a5c3 Implement 'git stash save --patch'
This adds a hunk-based mode to git-stash.  You can select hunks from
the difference between HEAD and worktree, and git-stash will build a
stash that reflects these changes.  The index state of the stash is
the same as your current index, and we also let --patch imply
--keep-index.

Note that because the selected hunks are rolled back from the worktree
but not the index, the resulting state may appear somewhat confusing
if you had also staged these changes.  This is not entirely
satisfactory, but due to the way stashes are applied, other solutions
would require a change to the stash format.

4f353658b9 Implement 'git checkout --patch'
This introduces a --patch mode for git-checkout.  In the index usage

  git checkout --patch -- [files...]

it lets the user discard edits from the <files> at the granularity of
hunks (by selecting hunks from 'git diff' and then reverse applying
them to the worktree).

We also accept a revision argument.  In the case

  git checkout --patch HEAD -- [files...]

we offer hunks from the difference between HEAD and the worktree, and
reverse applies them to both index and worktree, allowing you to
discard staged changes completely.  In the non-HEAD usage

  git checkout --patch <revision> -- [files...]

it offers hunks from the difference between the worktree and
<revision>.  The chosen hunks are then applied to both index and
worktree.

The application to worktree and index is done "atomically" in the
sense that we first check if the patch applies to the index (it should
always apply to the worktree).  If it does not, we give the user a
choice to either abort or apply to the worktree anyway.

d002ef4d94 Implement 'git reset --patch'
This introduces a --patch mode for git-reset.  The basic case is

  git reset --patch -- [files...]

which acts as the opposite of 'git add --patch -- [files...]': it
offers hunks for *un*staging.  Advanced usage is

  git reset --patch <revision> -- [files...]

which offers hunks from the diff between the index and <revision> for
forward application to the index.  (That is, the basic case is just
<revision> = HEAD.)

3d792161b1 add -p: do not attempt to coalesce mode changes
In 0392513 (add-interactive: refactor mode hunk handling, 2009-04-16),
we merged the interaction loops for mode changes and hunk staging.
This was fine at the time, because 0beee4c (git-add--interactive:
remove hunk coalescing, 2008-07-02) removed hunk coalescing.

However, in 7a26e65 (Revert "git-add--interactive: remove hunk
coalescing", 2009-05-16), we resurrected it.  Since then, the code
would attempt in vain to merge mode changes with diff hunks,
corrupting both in the process.

We add a check to the coalescing loop to ensure it only looks at diff
hunks, thus skipping mode changes.

8f0bef6df9 git-apply--interactive: Refactor patch mode code
This makes some aspects of the 'git add -p' loop configurable (within
the code), so that we can later reuse git-add--interactive for other
similar tools.

Most fields are fairly straightforward, but APPLY gets a subroutine
(instead of just a string a la 'apply --cached') so that we can handle
'checkout -p', which will need to atomically apply the patch twice
(index and worktree).

7535e5a16a add-interactive: refactor mode hunk handling
The original implementation considered the mode separately
from the rest of the hunks, asking about it outside the main
hunk-selection loop. This patch instead places a mode change
as the first hunk in the loop. This has two advantages:

  1. less duplicated code (since we use the main selection
     loop). This also cleans up an inconsistency, which is
     that the main selection loop separates options with a
     comma, whereas the mode prompt used slashes.

  2. users can now skip the mode change and come back to it,
     search for it (via "/mode"), etc, as they can with other
     hunks.

To facilitate this, each hunk is now marked with a "type".
Mode hunks are not considered for splitting (which would
make no sense, and also confuses the split_hunk function),
nor are they editable. In theory, one could edit the mode
lines and change to a new mode. In practice, there are only
two modes that git cares about (0644 and 0755), so either
you want to move from one to the other or not (and you can
do that by staging or not staging).

There's already 'd' to stop staging hunks in a file, but no explicit

more intuitive to allow 'quit' action.

9aad6cbaef add -p: get rid of Git.pm warnings about unitialized values
After invoking git add -p I always got the warnings:

 Use of uninitialized value $_[3] in exec at Git.pm line 1282.
 Use of uninitialized value $args[2] in join or string at Git.pm line 1264.

A bisect showed that these warnings occur in a301973 "add -p: print errors
in separate color" the first time.

They can be reproduced by setting color.ui (or color.interactive) to "auto"
and unsetting color.interactive.help and color.interactive.error.
I am using Perl 5.10.0.

The reason of the warning is that color.interactive.error defaults to
color.interactive.help which defaults to nothing in the specific codepath.
It defaults to 'red bold' some lines above which could lead to the wrong
assumption that it always defaults to 'red bold' now.

This patch lets it default to 'red bold', blowing the warnings away.

ac083c47ea git-add--interactive: manual hunk editing mode
Adds a new option 'e' to the 'add -p' command loop that lets you edit
the current hunk in your favourite editor.

If the resulting patch applies cleanly, the edited hunk will
immediately be marked for staging. If it does not apply cleanly, you
will be given an opportunity to edit again. If all lines of the hunk
are removed, then the edit is aborted and the hunk is left unchanged.

Applying the changed hunk(s) relies on Johannes Schindelin's new
--recount option for git-apply.

Note that the "real patch" test intentionally uses
  (echo e; echo n; echo d) | git add -p
even though the 'n' and 'd' are superfluous at first sight.  They
serve to get out of the interaction loop if git add -p wrongly
concludes the patch does not apply.

b717a62762 add--interactive: ignore mode change in 'p'atch command
When a path is examined in the patch subcommand, any mode changes in
the file are given to use in the diff header by git-diff. If no hunks
are staged, then we throw out that header and do not touch the

is changed together with the contents.

Since the 'p'atch command should just be dealing with hunks that are
shown to the user, it makes sense to just ignore mode changes
entirely. We do squirrel away the mode, though, since the next patch
will allow users to select the mode update separately.

f87e310d2c add--interactive: allow diff colors without interactive colors
Users with color.diff set to true/auto will not see color in
"git add -i" unless they also set color.interactive.

This changes the semantics of color.interactive to control only the
coloring of the interaction aspect of the command and let color.diff
to control the color of hunk picker, which would arguably be more
convenient.

Old $use_color variable is now renamed to $menu_use_color to make it
clear that it is about coloring the interaction.

The "colored" subroutine now checks if the passed color is defined,
instead of checking $use_color variable, to decide if the lines should
be colored.  The various variables that define colors for different
parts of the output are set or unset depending on the setting of
color.interactive and color.diff configuration variables.

4af756f31b Teach "git add -i" to colorize whitespace errors
Rather than replicating the colorization logic of "git diff-files" we
rely on "git diff-files" itself. This guarantees consistent colorization
in and outside "git add -i".

Seeing as speed is not a concern here (the bottleneck is how fast the
user can read, not how fast "git diff-files" runs) we do this by
actually running it twice, once without color and once with.

In this way as the whitespace colorization provided by "git diff-files"
evolves (per-path attributes, new classes of whitespace error), "git
add -i" will automatically benefit from it and stay in synch.

Also, by working with two sets of diff output (an uncolorized one for
internal processing and a colorized one for display only) we minimize
the risk of regressions because the changes required to implement this
are minimally invasive.

b4c61ed6d3 Color support for "git-add -i"
This is mostly lifted from earlier series by Dan Zwell, but updated to
use "git config --get-color" and "git config --get-colorbool" to make it
simpler and more consistent with commands written in C.

A new configuration color.interactive variable is like color.diff and
color.status, and controls if "git-add -i" uses color.

A set of configuration variables, color.interactive.<slot>, are used to
define what color is used for the prompt, header, and help text.

For perl scripts, Git.pm provides $repo->get_color() method, which takes
the slot name and the default color, and returns the terminal escape
sequence to color the output text.  $repo->get_colorbool() method can be
used to check if color is set to be used for a given operation.

633209898b add -i: allow prefix highlighting for "Add untracked" as well.
These changes make the automatic prefix highlighting work with the "Add
untracked" subcommand in git-add--interactive by explicitly handling
arrays, hashes and strings internally (previously only arrays and hashes
were handled).

In addition, prefixes which have special meaning for list_and_choose
(things like "*" for "all" and "-" for "deselect) are explicitly
excluded (highlighting these prefixes would be misleading).

14cb50382c Highlight keyboard shortcuts in git-add--interactive
The user interface provided by the command loop in git-add--interactive
gives the impression that subcommands can only be launched by entering
an integer identifier from 1 through 8.

A "hidden" feature is that any string can be entered, and a regex search
anchored at the beginning of the string is used to find the uniquely
matching option.

This patch makes this feature a little more obvious by highlighting the
first character of each subcommand (for example "patch" is displayed as
"[p]atch").

A new function is added to detect the shortest unique prefix and this
is used to decide what to highlight. Highlighting is also applied when
choosing files.

In the case where the common prefix may be unreasonably large
highlighting is omitted; in this patch the soft limit (above which the
highlighting will be omitted for a particular item) is 0 (in other words,
there is no soft limit) and the hard limit (above which highlighting will
be omitted for all items) is 3, but this can be tweaked.

The actual highlighting is done by the highlight_prefix function, which
will enable us to implement ANSI color code-based highlighting (most
likely using underline or boldface) in the future.
