This option defaults to true. Note that this - affects only 'git diff' Porcelain, and not lower level - 'diff' commands such as 'git diff-files'. - -diff.dirstat:: - A comma separated list of `--dirstat` parameters specifying the - default behavior of the `--dirstat` option to linkgit:git-diff[1] - and friends. The defaults can be overridden on the command line - (using `--dirstat=<param1,param2,...>`). The fallback defaults - (when not changed by `diff.dirstat`) are `changes,noncumulative,3`. - The following parameters are available: -+ --- -`changes`;; - Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the lines that have been - removed from the source, or added to the destination. This ignores - the amount of pure code movements within a file. In other words, - rearranging lines in a file is not counted as much as other changes. - This is the default behavior when no parameter is given. -`lines`;; - Compute the dirstat numbers by doing the regular line-based diff - analysis, and summing the removed/added line counts. (For binary - files, count 64-byte chunks instead, since binary files have no - natural concept of lines). This is a more expensive `--dirstat` - behavior than the `changes` behavior, but it does count rearranged - lines within a file as much as other changes. The resulting output - is consistent with what you get from the other `--*stat` options. -`files`;; - Compute the dirstat numbers by counting the number of files changed. - Each changed file counts equally in the dirstat analysis. This is - the computationally cheapest `--dirstat` behavior, since it does - not have to look at the file contents at all. -`cumulative`;; - Count changes in a child directory for the parent directory as well. - Note that when using `cumulative`, the sum of the percentages - reported may exceed 100%. The default (non-cumulative) behavior can - be specified with the `noncumulative` parameter. -<limit>;; - An integer parameter specifies a cut-off percent (3% by default). - Directories contributing less than this percentage of the changes - are not shown in the output. --- -+ -Example: The following will count changed files, while ignoring -directories with less than 10% of the total amount of changed files, -and accumulating child directory counts in the parent directories: -`files,10,cumulative`. - -diff.statGraphWidth:: - Limit the width of the graph part in --stat output. If set, applies - to all commands generating --stat output except format-patch. - -diff.context:: - Generate diffs with <n> lines of context instead of the default - of 3. This value is overridden by the -U option. - -diff.interHunkContext:: - Show the context between diff hunks, up to the specified number - of lines, thereby fusing the hunks that are close to each other. - This value serves as the default for the `--inter-hunk-context` - command line option. - -diff.external:: - If this config variable is set, diff generation is not - performed using the internal diff machinery, but using the - given command. Can be overridden with the `GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF' - environment variable. The command is called with parameters - as described under "git Diffs" in linkgit:git[1]. Note: if - you want to use an external diff program only on a subset of - your files, you might want to use linkgit:gitattributes[5] instead. - -diff.ignoreSubmodules:: - Sets the default value of --ignore-submodules. Note that this - affects only 'git diff' Porcelain, and not lower level 'diff' - commands such as 'git diff-files'. 'git checkout' - and 'git switch' also honor - this setting when reporting uncommitted changes. Setting it to - 'all' disables the submodule summary normally shown by 'git commit' - and 'git status' when `status.submoduleSummary` is set unless it is - overridden by using the --ignore-submodules command-line option. - The 'git submodule' commands are not affected by this setting. - -diff.mnemonicPrefix:: - If set, 'git diff' uses a prefix pair that is different from the - standard "a/" and "b/" depending on what is being compared. When - this configuration is in effect, reverse diff output also swaps - the order of the prefixes: -`git diff`;; - compares the (i)ndex and the (w)ork tree; -`git diff HEAD`;; - compares a (c)ommit and the (w)ork tree; -`git diff --cached`;; - compares a (c)ommit and the (i)ndex; -`git diff HEAD:file1 file2`;; - compares an (o)bject and a (w)ork tree entity; -`git diff --no-index a b`;; - compares two non-git things (1) and (2). - -diff.noprefix:: - If set, 'git diff' does not show any source or destination prefix. - -diff.relative:: - If set to 'true', 'git diff' does not show changes outside of the directory - and show pathnames relative to the current directory. - -diff.orderFile:: - File indicating how to order files within a diff. - See the '-O' option to linkgit:git-diff[1] for details. - If `diff.orderFile` is a relative pathname, it is treated as - relative to the top of the working tree. - -diff.renameLimit:: - The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename - detection; equivalent to the 'git diff' option `-l`. This setting - has no effect if rename detection is turned off. - -diff.renames:: - Whether and how Git detects renames. If set to "false", - rename detection is disabled. If set to "true", basic rename - detection is enabled. If set to "copies" or "copy", Git will - detect copies, as well. Defaults to true. Note that this - affects only 'git diff' Porcelain like linkgit:git-diff[1] and - linkgit:git-log[1], and not lower level commands such as - linkgit:git-diff-files[1]. - -diff.suppressBlankEmpty:: - A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space - before each empty output line. Defaults to false. - -diff.submodule:: - Specify the format in which differences in submodules are - shown. The "short" format just shows the names of the commits - at the beginning and end of the range. The "log" format lists - the commits in the range like linkgit:git-submodule[1] `summary` - does. The "diff" format shows an inline diff of the changed - contents of the submodule. Defaults to "short". - -diff.wordRegex:: - A POSIX Extended Regular Expression used to determine what is a "word" - when performing word-by-word difference calculations. Character - sequences that match the regular expression are "words", all other - characters are *ignorable* whitespace. - -diff.<driver>.command:: - The custom diff driver command. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] - for details. - -diff.<driver>.xfuncname:: - The regular expression that the diff driver should use to - recognize the hunk header. A built-in pattern may also be used. - See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. - -diff.<driver>.binary:: - Set this option to true to make the diff driver treat files as - binary. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. - -diff.<driver>.textconv:: - The command that the diff driver should call to generate the - text-converted version of a file. The result of the - conversion is used to generate a human-readable diff. See - linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. - -diff.<driver>.wordRegex:: - The regular expression that the diff driver should use to - split words in a line. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for - details. - -diff.<driver>.cachetextconv:: - Set this option to true to make the diff driver cache the text - conversion outputs. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. - -diff.tool:: - Controls which diff tool is used by linkgit:git-difftool[1]. - This variable overrides the value configured in `merge.tool`. - The list below shows the valid built-in values. - Any other value is treated as a custom diff tool and requires - that a corresponding difftool.<tool>.cmd variable is defined. - -diff.guitool:: - Controls which diff tool is used by linkgit:git-difftool[1] when - the -g/--gui flag is specified. This variable overrides the value - configured in `merge.guitool`. The list below shows the valid - built-in values. Any other value is treated as a custom diff tool - and requires that a corresponding difftool.<guitool>.cmd variable - is defined. - -include::../mergetools-diff.txt[] - -diff.indentHeuristic:: - Set this option to `false` to disable the default heuristics - that shift diff hunk boundaries to make patches easier to read. - -diff.algorithm:: - Choose a diff algorithm. The variants are as follows: -+ --- -`default`, `myers`;; - The basic greedy diff algorithm. Currently, this is the default. -`minimal`;; - Spend extra time to make sure the smallest possible diff is - produced. -`patience`;; - Use "patience diff" algorithm when generating patches. -`histogram`;; - This algorithm extends the patience algorithm to "support - low-occurrence common elements". --- -+ - -diff.wsErrorHighlight:: - Highlight whitespace errors in the `context`, `old` or `new` - lines of the diff. Multiple values are separated by comma, - `none` resets previous values, `default` reset the list to - `new` and `all` is a shorthand for `old,new,context`. The - whitespace errors are colored with `color.diff.whitespace`. - The command line option `--ws-error-highlight=<kind>` - overrides this setting. - -diff.colorMoved:: - If set to either a valid `<mode>` or a true value, moved lines - in a diff are colored differently, for details of valid modes - see '--color-moved' in linkgit:git-diff[1]. If simply set to - true the default color mode will be used. When set to false, - moved lines are not colored. - -diff.colorMovedWS:: - When moved lines are colored using e.g. the `diff.colorMoved` setting, - this option controls the `<mode>` how spaces are treated - for details of valid modes see '--color-moved-ws' in linkgit:git-diff[1]. |
