Currently, the hunk headers produced by 'diff -p' are customizable by
setting the diff.*.funcname option in the config file. The 'funcname' option
takes a basic regular expression. This functionality was designed using the
GNU regex library which, by default, allows using backslashed versions of
some extended regular expression operators, even in Basic Regular Expression
mode. For example, the following characters, when backslashed, are
interpreted according to the extended regular expression rules: ?, +, and |.
As such, the builtin funcname patterns were created using some extended
regular expression operators.
Other platforms which adhere more strictly to the POSIX spec do not
interpret the backslashed extended RE operators in Basic Regular Expression
mode. This causes the pattern matching for the builtin funcname patterns to
fail on those platforms.
Introduce a new option 'xfuncname' which uses extended regular expressions,
and advertise it _instead_ of funcname. Since most users are on GNU
platforms, the majority of funcname patterns are created and tested there.
Advertising only xfuncname should help to avoid the creation of non-portable
patterns which work with GNU regex but not elsewhere.
Additionally, the extended regular expressions may be less ugly and
complicated compared to the basic RE since many common special operators do
not need to be backslashed.
For example, the GNU Basic RE:
^[ ]*\\(\\(public\\|static\\).*\\)$
becomes the following Extended RE:
^[ ]*((public|static).*)$

The standard libc regex library on OSX does not support alternation
in POSIX Basic Regular Expression mode. This breaks the diff.funcname
functionality on OSX.
To fix this, we use the GNU regex library which is already present in
the compat/ diretory for the MinGW port. However, simply adding compat/
to the COMPAT_CFLAGS variable causes a conflict between the system
fnmatch.h and the one present in compat/. To remedy this, move the
regex and fnmatch functionality to their own subdirectories in compat/
so they can be included seperately.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

This updates the hunk header customization syntax. The special
case 'funcname' attribute is gone.
You assign the name of the type of contents to path's "diff"
attribute as a string value in .gitattributes like this:
*.java diff=java
*.perl diff=perl
*.doc diff=doc
If you supply "diff.<name>.funcname" variable via the
configuration mechanism (e.g. in $HOME/.gitconfig), the value is
used as the regexp set to find the line to use for the hunk
header (the variable is called "funcname" because such a line
typically is the one that has the name of the function in
programming language source text).
If there is no such configuration, built-in default is used, if
any. Currently there are two default patterns: default and java.

This makes"diff -p" hunk headers customizable via gitattributes mechanism.
It is based on Johannes's earlier patch that allowed to define a single
regexp to be used for everything.
The mechanism to arrive at the regexp that is used to define hunk header
is the same as other use of gitattributes. You assign an attribute, funcname
(because "diff -p" typically uses the name of the function the patch is about
as the hunk header), a simple string value. This can be one of the names of
built-in pattern (currently, "java" is defined) or a custom pattern name, to
be looked up from the configuration file.
(in .gitattributes)
*.java funcname=java
*.perl funcname=perl
(in .git/config)
[funcname]
java = ... # ugly and complicated regexp to override the built-in one.
perl = ... # another ugly and complicated regexp to define a new one.
