The -G<regex> option of log looks for the differences whose patch text
contains added/removed lines that match regex.
Currently -G looks also into patches of binary files (which
according to [1]) is binary as well.
This has a couple of issues:
- It makes the pickaxe search slow. In a proprietary repository of the
author with only ~5500 commits and a total .git size of ~300MB
searching takes ~13 seconds
$time git log -Gwave > /dev/null
real 0m13,241s
user 0m12,596s
sys 0m0,644s
whereas when we ignore binary files with this patch it takes ~4s
$time ~/devel/git/git log -Gwave > /dev/null
real 0m3,713s
user 0m3,608s
sys 0m0,105s
which is a speedup of more than fourfold.
- The internally used algorithm for generating patch text is based on
xdiff and its states in [1]
> The output format of the binary patch file is proprietary
> (and binary) and it is basically a collection of copy and insert
> commands [..]
which means that the current format could change once the internal
algorithm is changed as the format is not standardized. In addition
the git binary patch format used for preparing patches for git apply
is *different* from the xdiff format as can be seen by comparing
To resolve these issues this patch makes -G<regex> ignore binary files
by default. Textconv filters are supported and also -a/--text for
getting the old and broken behaviour back.
The -S<block of text> option of log looks for differences that changes
the number of occurrences of the specified block of text (i.e.
addition/deletion) in a file. As we want to keep the current behaviour,
add a test to ensure it stays that way.

The new test_oid machinery in the test library requires reading

The logic to read from these files in shell uses built-in "read"
command, which leaves CR at the end of these text files when they
are checked out with CRLF line endings, at least when run with bash
shipped with Git for Windows. This results in an unexpected value
in the variable these lines are read into, leading the tests to
fail.
Mark them to be checked out always with the LF line endings.

The compiler reports this because show_gitcomp() never actually
returns a value:
"parse-options.c", line 520: warning: Function has no return
statement : show_gitcomp
We could shut the compiler up. But instead let's not bury exit() too
deep. Do the same as internal -h handling, return a special error code
and handle the exit() in parse_options() (and other
parse_options_step() callers) instead.

help -a: handle aliases with long names gracefully
We take pains to determine the longest command beforehand, so that we
can align the category column after printing the command names.
However, then we re-use that value when printing the aliases. If any
alias name is longer than the longest command name, we consequently try
to add a negative number of spaces (but `mput_char()` does not expect
any negative values and simply decrements until the value is 0, i.e.
it tries to add close to 2**31 spaces).
Let's fix this by adjusting the `longest` variable before printing the
aliases.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1975.

range-diff: always pass at least minimal diff options
Commit d8981c3f88 ("format-patch: do not let its diff-options affect
--range-diff", 2018-11-30) taught `show_range_diff()` to accept a
NULL-pointer as an indication that it should use its own "reasonable
default". That fixed a regression from a5170794 ("Merge branch
'ab/range-diff-no-patch'", 2018-11-18), but unfortunately it introduced
a regression of its own.
In particular, it means we forget the `file` member of the diff options,
so rather than placing a range-diff in the cover-letter, we write it to
stdout. In order to fix this, rewrite the two callers adjusted by d8981c3f88 to instead create a "dummy" set of diff options where they
only fill in the fields we absolutely require, such as output file and
color.
Modify and extend the existing tests to try and verify that the right
contents end up in the right place.
Don't revert `show_range_diff()`, i.e., let it keep accepting NULL.
Rather than removing what is dead code and figuring out it isn't
actually dead and we've broken 2.20, just leave it for now.

t0061 creates a script with an unlikely name in the current
directory and asks the run_command() API to run it without an
explicit path, expecting that the script does *not* get run. This
obviously would not work if the $PATH does contain such an element.
Check if the running shell picks up the script without an explicit
path to it, and skip the test when it does, as the run_command() API
should also run the script in such an (insane) environment.

The advice message to tell the user to migrate an existing graft
file to the replace system when a graft file was read was shown
even when "git replace --convert-graft-file" command, which is the
way the message suggests to use, was running, which made little
sense.
"git rebase --stat" to transplant a piece of history onto a totally
unrelated history were not working before and silently showed wrong
result. With the recent reimplementation in C, it started to instead
die with an error message, as the original logic was not prepared
to cope with this case. This has now been fixed.

rebase --stat: fix when rebasing to an unrelated history
"git rebase" reimplemented recently in C accidentally changed the
way reflog entries are recorded (earlier "rebase -i" identified the
entries it leaves with "rebase -i", but the new version always
marks them with "rebase"). This has been corrected.
"git format-patch --range-diff" by mistake passed the diff options
used to generate the primary output of the command to the
range-diff machinery, which caused the range-diff in the cover
letter to include fairly useless "--stat" output. This has been
corrected by forcing a non-customizable default formatting options
on the range-diff machinery when driven by format-patch.

rebase --stat: fix when rebasing to an unrelated history
When rebasing to a commit history that has no common commits with the
current branch, there is no merge base. In diffstat mode, this means
that we cannot compare to the merge base, but we have to compare to the
empty tree instead.
Also, if running in verbose diffstat mode, we should not output
Changes from <merge-base> to <onto>
as that does not make sense without any merge base.
Note: neither scripted nor built-in versoin of `git rebase` were
prepared for this situation well. We use this opportunity not only to
fix the bug(s), but also to make both versions' output consistent in
this instance. And add a regression test to keep this working in all
eternity.

The scripted version of "rebase" honored the `GIT_REFLOG_ACTION`,
and some automation scripts expected the reflog entries to be
prefixed with "rebase -i", not "rebase", after running "rebase -i".
This regressed in the reimplementation in C.
Fix that, and add a regression test, both with `GIT_REFLOG_ACTION`
set and unset.
Note: the reflog message for "rebase finished" did *not* honor
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION, and as we are very late in the v2.20.0-rcN phase,
we leave that bug for later (as it seems that that bug has been with
us from the very beginning).

format-patch: do not let its diff-options affect --range-diff
Stop leaking how the primary output of format-patch is customized to
the range-diff machinery and instead let the latter use its own
"reasonable default", in order to correct the breakage introduced by a5170794 ("Merge branch 'ab/range-diff-no-patch'", 2018-11-18) on
the 'master' front. "git format-patch --range-diff..." without any
weird diff option started to include the "range-diff --stat" output,
which is rather useless right now, that made the whole thing
unusable and this is probably the least disruptive way to whip the
codebase into a shippable shape.
We may want to later make the range-diff driven by format-patch more
configurable, but that would have to wait until we have a good
design.
