From fa59e7beb2a61d9cd1312b212075edf12935fdc6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?=C3=86var=20Arnfj=C3=B6r=C3=B0=20Bjarmason?= Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2021 19:15:26 +0200 Subject: pickaxe -G: terminate early on matching lines MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Solve a long-standing item for "git log -Grx" of us e.g. finding "+ str" in the diff context and noting that we had a "hit", but xdiff diligently continuing to generate and spew the rest of the diff at us. This makes use of a new "early return" xdiff interface added by preceding commits. The TODO item (or, the NEEDSWORK comment) has been there since "git log -G" was implemented. See f506b8e8b5f (git log/diff: add -G that greps in the patch text, 2010-08-23). But now with the support added in the preceding changes to the xdiff-interface we can return early. Let's assert the behavior of that new early-return xdiff-interface by having a BUG() call here to die if it ever starts handing us needless work again.
