The argument to --diff-algorithm is mandatory, so there is no reason to
require the argument to be stuck to the option with '='. Change this
for consistency with other Git commands.
Note that this does not change the handling of diff-algorithm in
merge-recursive.c since the primary interface to that is via the -X
option to 'git merge' where the unstuck form does not make sense.

The logic described in d020e27 (diff: Fix rename pretty-print when
suffix and prefix overlap, 2013-02-23) is wrong: The proof in the
comment is valid only if both strings are the same length. *One* of
old/new can reach a-1 (b-1, resp.) if 'a' is a suffix of 'b' (or vice
versa).
Since the intent was to let the loop run down to the '/' at the end of
the common prefix, fix it by making that distinction explicit: if
there is no prefix, allow no underrun.

When considering a rename for two files that have a suffix and a prefix
that can overlap, a confusing line is shown. As an example, renaming
"a/b/b/c" to "a/b/c" shows "a/b/{ => }/b/c".
Currently, what we do is calculate the common prefix ("a/b/"), and the
common suffix ("/b/c"), but the same "/b/" is actually counted both in
prefix and suffix. Then when calculating the size of the non-common part,
we end-up with a negative value which is reset to 0, thus the "{ => }".
Do not allow the common suffix to overlap the common prefix and stop
when reaching a "/" that would be in both.

Since command line options have higher priority than config file
variables and taking previous commit into account, we need a way
how to specify myers algorithm on command line. However,
inventing `--myers` is not the right answer. We need far more
general option, and that is `--diff-algorithm`.

Some users or projects prefer different algorithms over others, e.g.
patience over myers or similar. However, specifying appropriate
argument every time diff is to be used is impractical. Moreover,
creating an alias doesn't play nicely with other tools based on diff
(git-show for instance). Hence, a configuration variable which is able
to set specific algorithm is needed. For now, these four values are
accepted: 'myers' (which has the same effect as not setting the config
variable at all), 'minimal', 'patience' and 'histogram'.

"git diff --stat" miscounted the total number of changed lines when
binary files were involved and hidden beyond --stat-count. It also
miscounted the total number of changed files when there were
unmerged paths.
* lt/diff-stat-show-0-lines:
t4049: refocus tests
diff --shortstat: do not count "unmerged" entries
diff --stat: do not count "unmerged" entries
diff --stat: move the "total count" logic to the last loop
diff --stat: use "file" temporary variable to refer to data->files[i]
diff --stat: status of unmodified pair in diff-q is not zero
test: add failing tests for "diff --stat" to t4049
Even though we show a separate *UNMERGED* entry in the patch and
diffstat output (or in the --raw format, for that matter) in
addition to and separately from the diff against the specified stage
(defaulting to #2) for unmerged paths, they should not be counted in
the total number of files affected---that would lead to counting the
same path twice.
The separation done by the previous step makes this fix simple and
straightforward. Among the filepairs in diff_queue, paths that
weren't modified, and the extra "unmerged" entries do not count as
total number of files.

The diffstat generation logic, with --stat-count limit, is
implemented as three loops.
- The first counts the width necessary to show stats up to
specified number of entries, and notes up to how many entries in
the data we need to iterate to show the graph;
- The second iterates that many times to draw the graph, adjusts
the number of "total modified files", and counts the total
added/deleted lines for the part that was shown in the graph;
- The third iterates over the remainder and only does the part to
count "total added/deleted lines" and to adjust "total modified
files" without drawing anything.
Move the logic to count added/deleted lines and modified files from
the second loop to the third loop.
This incidentally fixes a bug. The third loop was not filtering
binary changes (counted in bytes) from the total added/deleted as it
should. The second loop implemented this correctly, so if a binary
change appeared earlier than the --stat-count cutoff, the code
counted number of added/deleted lines correctly, but if it appeared
beyond the cutoff, the number of lines would have mixed with the
byte count in the buggy third loop.

variables were called "set" and "reset". Nowadays it is a much longer
function and we use several colors (e.g., "add", "del"). Rename "set" to
"meta" to show that it is the color for showing diff meta-info (it still
does not indicate that it is a "color", but at least it matches the

Use string_list_split_in_place() to split the comma-separated
parameters string. This simplifies the code and also fixes a bug: the
old code made calls like
memcmp(p, "lines", p_len)
which needn't work if p_len is different than the length of the
constant string (and could illegally access memory if p_len is larger
than the length of the constant string).
When p_len was less than the length of the constant string, the old
code would have allowed some abbreviations to be accepted (e.g., "cha"
for "changes") but this seems to have been a bug rather than a
feature, because (1) it is not documented; (2) no attempt was made to
handle ambiguous abbreviations, like "c" for "changes" vs
"cumulative".

The behavior of "git diff --stat" is rather odd for files that have
zero lines of changes: it will discount them entirely unless they were
renames.
Which means that the stat output will simply not show files that only
had "other" changes: they were created or deleted, or their mode was
changed.
Now, those changes do show up in the summary, but so do renames, so
the diffstat logic is inconsistent. Why does it show renames with zero
lines changed, but not mode changes or added files with zero lines
changed?
So change the logic to not check for "is_renamed", but for
"is_interesting" instead, where "interesting" is judged to be any
action but a pure data change (because a pure data change with zero
data changed really isn't worth showing, if we ever get one in our
diffpairs).
So if you did
chmod +x Makefile
git diff --stat
before, it would show empty (" 0 files changed"), with this it shows
Makefile | 0
1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
which I think is a more correct diffstat (and then with "--summary" it
shows *what* the metadata change to Makefile was - this is completely
consistent with our handling of renamed files).
Side note: the old behavior was *really* odd. With no changes at all,
"git diff --stat" output was empty. With just a chmod, it said "0
files changed". No way is our legacy behavior sane.
