Hi,
this is version 2.
Changes:
- style fixes
- some tests for git-format-patch added
- patches 3 and 4 squashed together, since they touch the same lines
- graph width is limited to 40 columns, even if there's more space
- patch descriptions extended and cleared up
Description (modified):
this is a patch series to make 'git diff --stat' use full terminal
width instead of hard-coded 80 columns.
This is quite useful when working on projects with nested directory
structure, e.g. Java:
.../{ => workspace/tasks}/GetTaskResultAction.java | 10 +-
.../tasks}/RemoveAllAbortedTasksAction.java | 7 +-
.../tasks}/RemoveAllFailedTasksAction.java | 7 +-
is changed to display full paths if the terminal window is wide
enough.
Git usually uses the full terminal width automatically, so it should
do so with --stat too.
The "big" functional change in the patch series is
s/80/term_columns()/ in show_stats(). The partitioning of available
columns is changed to dedicate more space to file names and the number
of columns used for +- graph is limited.
