The provider chain so far holds the diff-hunks store in front of the
terminal builtin computation. Open it to external processes: a pair on
a path whose driver configures diff.<driver>.process is answered by a
long-running process speaking a pkt-line protocol (following the filter
process protocol), registered at the head of the chain and consulted
before the store and before any blob is loaded.
The protocol starts with the smallest request that can carry an answer:
object names alone. A request is the pathname and the pair's
old-oid/new-oid, with no content. The process answers with hunk lines,
with a zero-hunk success that asserts the blobs equivalent (trailing
newlines included), or with status=need-content, on which the pair
falls through to the builtin answer. This serves the two shapes that
need no content pushed to them: a cache keyed on the blob pair, and a
process that fetches the blobs itself (for example over "git cat-file
--batch"). A pair whose side is not a stored blob carries a NULL id;
the provider sends no request and passes it. Because Git holds no
content for the exchange, the answer is used as sent: hunks are
validated for order, overlap, lockstep alignment, and magnitude, then
replayed without the normalization xdiff applies to diffs it computes
itself. The magnitude bound is the blobs' sizes, read from the object
database without loading content: a blob of N bytes holds at most N
lines.
Because the process's answer is authoritative, it outranks the store,
and its head-of-chain position says so. A pair the process answers
never reaches the store and is never recorded, so nothing it produces
enters the store, which holds the builtin answer only. A request it
does not answer, whether need-content, a missing capability, or a
missing id, passes down the chain to the builtin answer, which is what
the store serves, so the store may serve such a pair and a warming run
may record it. Entries recorded before a process was configured are
not purged; a pair the process answers ignores them, and "git diff-hunks
clear" discards them.
The provider gates itself per request. The driver is looked up by the
old-side path, so a renamed file resolves to the same driver, and by
the repository-relative path, so a diff.relative run from a
subdirectory names the pair the same way. Options the process is never
told about select no process: the whitespace-ignoring options, -I,
--anchored, and an algorithm forced by option or configuration (blame
routes its algorithm through xdl_opts, so --histogram is covered). The
request gains its last field, the path; the consumers change only by
filling it, and neither names the process.
The provider's state is its repository's pool of running processes,
keyed by the configured command, so drivers sharing a command share a
process, a submodule speaks to its own, and releasing the provider
(from repo_clear()) stops them. The pool owns a copy of each command
string, so an entry outlives a config re-read. A command that fails
stays as an entry that is not retried: its request and every later one
pass, so the store may serve the path for the rest of the command.
A protocol error in a response never kills the command. The response
is read through a packet reader gentle about framing, so an error takes
one path: a single warning, the process stopped and marked failed, and
the builtin diff for the rest of the command. That covers garbage
bytes, a truncated response, an empty packet, a bare status, and an
unrecognized status. Semantically invalid coordinates cost only their
pair: the response is drained, the pair is computed, and the process
stays alive. A path the protocol cannot carry (an embedded newline, or
one too long for a packet) falls back per path rather than costing the
command its process. The handshake keeps one fatal check: a process
that announces a capability Git did not request aborts the command, as
the long-running filter protocol does.
Consulting is allowed per command, following the allow_textconv
precedent. "git diff", "git log" and "git show", and "git blame" set
allow_diff_process; the plumbing diff commands and the interactive-patch
machinery never set it, so scripted and staging output stays builtin.
The options adjust the flag:
- --no-ext-diff clears it and --ext-diff sets it;
- --diff-process and --no-diff-process set and clear it alone, leaving
external diff drivers as they were;
- format-patch clears it unconditionally, so a generated patch applies
for recipients without the process;
- range-diff passes --no-ext-diff to the "git log" it compares.
git blame and the summary formats consult the process. For blame, a
pair reported equivalent emits no hunks, so the whole commit passes to
its parent. In the stat formats such a pair sums to a zero-count entry,
which the "nothing changed" rule omits, as under -w. The subprocess is
long-running: one startup cost across a traversal, one round-trip per
consulted pair. Answers travel in struct xdl_hunk, new in
xdiff-interface.h, holding xdiff's 1-based coordinates; nothing feeds
them back to xdiff, since only coordinate consumers consult.
A content-carrying request is the natural extension: it would serve
sides that are not stored blobs and processes that want content pushed
to them, and bring patch output and log -L's range tracking to the same
answer. As it stands, a process's answers show in blame and the summary
formats while patch output stays builtin.
t4080 exercises the protocol, the per-command gate, and the error paths:
- each adversarial response shape warns and falls back to builtin, the
request log proving which failures disable the process and which keep
it alive (a malformed hunk line, coordinates past the blob size, a
count overflowing strtol(), overlapping or misaligned hunks, an
unrecognized status, a bare status, an empty packet, a mid-response
crash, and raw garbage);
- a capability-less process and status=abort degrade without noise, and
a failed start warns once and returns the path to the store;
- a trailing token on a hunk line is ignored, pinning field
appendability;
- positive consults for git diff, git show, and diff-tree under
--ext-diff and --diff-process; textconv output and gitlink sides are
never identified; a diff.relative run consults by the repo-relative
path;
- the equivalence answer is pinned from both consumers, and a warming
run past a deferring process records the pair for a later read.

The diff-hunks store has a writer, but nothing fills it. Teach
builtin_diffstat() to do so: on a warming run (a writer is attached), a
modified pair's stat is produced by collecting the pair's hunk
coordinates instead of emitting text, the counts are summed from those
hunks, and the pair is recorded. A run without a writer is unchanged,
and nothing reads the store yet; the read side arrives next.
The store records one context-free entry per pair, and only for a
trim-stable pair: one whose zero-context trimmed diff (what blame will
read) and untrimmed diff (whose counts a nonzero-context stat matches)
are identical. The warming path computes both and hands them to
diff_hunks_writer_record_stable(), new here, which records only when
they agree; a divergent pair is never recorded and every consumer
computes it. The warming run displays the counts it shows a store-less
run: the trimmed ones, since xdi_diff trims at zero context, while the
untrimmed counts serve only the stability comparison.
Not everything the stat path computes may be recorded.
--ignore-blank-lines is part of the key, but it coalesces hunks
differently between the text-emitting and coordinate-callback paths, so
a recorded entry would not match a store-less run's --stat. -I
patterns, --anchored, and break detection (-B) shape the diff outside
the key entirely; the guard for those three sits in this consumer for
now and moves into the store's own provider when it registers, next. A
"log -L" range-scoped stat is not the whole-pair diff the key describes,
so it does not record. Recording also requires both sides to be valid
regular files whose blobs the key can name: a working-tree side,
textconv output, or a gitlink has no usable id.
"git diff", "git log", "git show", and "git diff-tree" with the --stat,
--numstat, and --shortstat formats attach a writer when writing is
enabled and flush it when the traversal finishes, so a warming run such
as
GIT_DIFF_HUNKS_WRITE=1 git log --all --stat >/dev/null
fills the cache as a side effect of the diff work the command already
does. Writing is controlled by diffHunks.write and GIT_DIFF_HUNKS_WRITE.
Add the write half of t4220:
- ordinary commands never create the store, and creation is gated off
by default, the environment overriding the config;
- a warming run builds a store that verifies, and a second refreshes it
in place;
- a warming run displays parity at zero context on a trim-divergent
pair, committed as a fixture (small synthetic pairs cannot diverge:
minimal diffs add and delete equal counts, and trimming preserves
that);
- binary and mode-only pairs do not break the writer;
- a corrupt store is discarded at seed;
- verify and clear run against the files a warming run builds.

The `repo_get_commit_tree()` function can return NULL when a commit's
tree object is not available (e.g., the commit was parsed but its
maybe_tree field is unset and the commit is not in the commit-graph). In
cmd_diff(), the return value is immediately dereferenced via ->object
without a NULL check, which would crash if the tree cannot be loaded.
Add an explicit NULL check and die with a descriptive message.

Stop using `the_repository` in `setup_work_tree()` and instead accept
the repository as a parameter. The injection of `the_repository` is thus
bumped one level higher, where callers now pass it in explicitly.
Note that the function tracks two bits of information via global
variables. This of course doesn't make much sense anymore now that we
can set up worktrees for arbitrary repositories:
- We track whether the worktree has already been initialized and, if
so, we skip the call to `chdir_notify()` and setenv(3p). It does not
make much sense to store this info in the repository, as we _would_
want to update the environment when switching between worktrees back
and forth.
So instead of storing this info in the repository, we drop this
state entirely and live with the fact that we may execute the logic
twice. It should ultimately be idempotent though and thus not be
much of a problem.
- We track whether the worktree configuration is bogus. If so, and if
later on some caller tries to setup the worktree, then we'll die
instead. This is indeed information that we can move into the
repository itself.

The act of giving "--no-index" tells Git to pretend that the current
directory is not under control of any Git index or repository, so
even when you happen to be in a Git controlled working tree, where
in that working tree should not matter.
But the start-up sequence tries to discover the top of the working
tree and chdir(2)'s there, even before Git passes control to the
subcommand being run. When diff_no_index() starts running, it
starts at a wrong (from the end-user's point of view who thinks
"git diff --no-index" is merely a better version of GNU diff)
directory, and the original directory the user started the command
is at "prefix".
Because the paths given from argv[] have already been adjusted to
account for this path shuffling by prepending the prefix, and
showing the resulting path by stripping the prefix, the effect of
these nonsense operations (nonsense in the context of "--no-index",
that is) is usually not observable.
Except for special cases like "-", where it is not preprocessed by
prepending the prefix.
Instead of papering over by adding more special cases only to cater
to the no-index codepath in the generic code, drive the diff
machinery more faithfully to what is going on. If the user started
"git diff --no-index" in directory X/Y/Z in a working tree
controlled by Git, and the start up sequence of Git chdir(2)'ed up
to directory X and left Y/Z in the prefix, revert the effect of the
start up sequence by chdir'ing back to Y/Z and emptying the prefix.

In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by
default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the
config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have
been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that
takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll
eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global
repository variable explicit at the callsite.
Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config()`. All callsites
are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(the_repository, ...)`
instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available,
this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation
and thus cannot cause any regression. Those sites should eventually be
cleaned up in a later patch series.

We have some commands that can operate inside or outside a repository.
If we're operating outside a repository, we clearly cannot use the
repository's hash algorithm as a default since it doesn't exist, so
instead, let's pick the default instead of specifically SHA-1. Right
now this results in no functional change since the default is SHA-1, but
that may change in the future.

The --no-index option of git-diff enables using the diff machinery from
git while operating outside of a repository. This mode of git diff is
able to compare directories and produce a diff of their contents.
When operating git diff in a repository, git has the notion of
"pathspecs" which can specify which files to compare. In particular,
when using git to diff two trees, you might invoke:
$ git diff-tree -r <treeish1> <treeish2>.
where the treeish could point to a subdirectory of the repository.
When invoked this way, users can limit the selected paths of the tree by
using a pathspec. Either by providing some list of paths to accept, or
by removing paths via a negative refspec.
The git diff --no-index mode does not support pathspecs, and cannot
limit the diff output in this way. Other diff programs such as GNU
difftools have options for excluding paths based on a pattern match.
However, using git diff as a diff replacement has several advantages
over many popular diff tools, including coloring moved lines, rename
detections, and similar.
Teach git diff --no-index how to handle pathspecs to limit the
comparisons. This will only be supported if both provided paths are
directories.
For comparisons where one path isn't a directory, the --no-index mode
already has some DWIM shortcuts implemented in the fixup_paths()
function.
Modify the fixup_paths function to return 1 if both paths are
directories. If this is the case, interpret any extra arguments to git
diff as pathspecs via parse_pathspec.
Use parse_pathspec to load the remaining arguments (if any) to git diff
--no-index as pathspec items. Disable PATHSPEC_ATTR support since we do
not have a repository to do attribute lookup. Disable PATHSPEC_FROMTOP
since we do not have a repository root. All pathspecs are treated as
rooted at the provided comparison paths.
After loading the pathspec data, calculate skip offsets for skipping
past the root portion of the paths. This is required to ensure that
pathspecs start matching from the provided path, rather than matching
from the absolute path. We could instead pass the paths as prefix values
to parse_pathspec. This is slightly problematic because the paths come
from the command line and don't necessarily have the proper trailing
slash. Additionally, that would require parsing pathspecs multiple
times.
Pass the pathspec object and the skip offsets into queue_diff, which
in-turn must pass them along to read_directory_contents.
Modify read_directory_contents to check against the pathspecs when
scanning the directory. Use the skip offset to skip past the initial
root of the path, and only match against portions that are below the
intended directory structure being compared.
The search algorithm for finding paths is recursive with read_dir. To
make pathspec matching work properly, we must set both
DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY and DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC.
Without DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY, paths like "a/b/c/d" will not match against
pathspecs like "a/b/c". This is usually achieved by setting the is_dir
parameter of match_pathspec.
Without DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC, paths like "a/b/c" would not match
against pathspecs like "a/b/c/d". This is crucial because we recursively
iterate down the directories. We could simply avoid checking pathspecs
at subdirectories, but this would force recursion down directories
which would simply be skipped.
If we always passed DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC, then we will
incorrectly match in certain cases such as matching 'a/c' against
':(glob)**/d'. The match logic will see that a matches the leading part
of the **/ and accept this even tho c doesn't match.
To avoid this, use the match_leading_pathspec() variant recently
introduced. This sets both flags when is_dir is set, but leaves them
both cleared when is_dir is 0.
Add test cases and documentation covering the new functionality. Note
for the documentation I opted not to move the placement of '--' which is
sometimes used to disambiguate arguments. The diff --no-index mode
requires exactly 2 arguments determining what to compare. Any additional
arguments are interpreted as pathspecs and must come afterwards. Use of
'--' would not actually disambiguate anything, since there will never be
ambiguity over which arguments represent paths or pathspecs.

The `null_oid()` function returns the object ID that only consists of
zeroes. Naturally, this ID also depends on the hash algorithm used, as
the number of zeroes is different between SHA1 and SHA256. Consequently,
the function returns the hash-algorithm-specific null object ID.
This is currently done by depending on `the_hash_algo`, which implicitly
makes us depend on `the_repository`. Refactor the function to instead
pass in the hash algorithm for which we want to retrieve the null object
ID. Adapt callsites accordingly by passing in `the_repository`, thus
bubbling up the dependency on that global variable by one layer.
There are a couple of trivial exceptions for subsystems that already got
rid of `the_repository`. These subsystems instead use the repository
that is available via the calling context:
- "builtin/grep.c"
- "grep.c"
- "refs/debug.c"
There are also two non-trivial exceptions:
- "diff-no-index.c": Here we know that we may not have a repository
initialized at all, so we cannot rely on `the_repository`. Instead,
we adapt `diff_no_index()` to get a `struct git_hash_algo` as
parameter. The only caller is located in "builtin/diff.c", where we
know to call `repo_set_hash_algo()` in case we're running outside of
a Git repository. Consequently, it is fine to continue passing
`the_repository->hash_algo` even in this case.
- "builtin/ls-files.c": There is an in-flight patch series that drops
`USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` in this file, which causes a semantic
conflict because we use `null_oid()` in `show_submodule()`. The
value is passed to `repo_submodule_init()`, which may use the object
ID to resolve a tree-ish in the superproject from which we want to
read the submodule config. As such, the object ID should refer to an
object in the superproject, and consequently we need to use its hash
algorithm.
This means that we could in theory just not bother about this edge
case at all and just use `the_repository` in "diff-no-index.c". But
doing so would feel misdesigned.
Remove the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` preprocessor define in
"hash.c".

There are two users of `UNLEAK()` left in our codebase:
- In "builtin/clone.c", annotating the `repo` variable. That leak has
already been fixed though as you can see in the context, where we do
know to free `repo_to_free`.
- In "builtin/diff.c", to unleak entries of the `blob[]` array. That
leak has also been fixed, because the entries we assign to that
array come from `rev.pending.objects`, and we do eventually release
`rev`.
This neatly demonstrates one of the issues with `UNLEAK()`: it is quite
easy for the annotation to become stale. A second issue is that its
whole intent is to paper over leaks. And while that has been a necessary
evil in the past, because Git was leaking left and right, it isn't
really much of an issue nowadays where our test suite has no known leaks
anymore.
Remove the last two users of this macro.

After running a diff between two things, or a series of diffs while
walking the history, the diff computation is concluded by a call to
diff_result_code() to extract the exit status of the diff machinery.
The function can work on "struct diffopt", but all the callers
historically and currently pass "struct diffopt" that is embedded in
the "struct rev_info" that is used to hold the remerge_diff bit and
the remerge_objdir variable that points at the temporary object
directory in use.
Redefine diff_result_code() to take the whole "struct rev_info" to
give it an access to these members related to remerge-diff, so that
it can get rid of the temporary object directory for any and all
callers that used the feature. We can lose the equivalent code to
do so from the code paths for individual commands, diff-tree, diff,
and log.

The git-diff(1) command can be used outside repositories to diff two
files with each other. But even if there is no repository we will end up
hashing the files that we are diffing so that we can print the "index"
line:
```
diff --git a/a b/b
index 7898192..6178079 100644
--- a/a
+++ b/b
@@ -1 +1 @@
-a
+b
```
We implicitly use SHA1 to calculate the hash here, which is because
`the_repository` gets initialized with SHA1 during the startup routine.
We are about to stop doing this though such that `the_repository` only
ever has a hash function when it was properly initialized via a repo's
configuration.
To give full control to our users, we would ideally add a new switch to
git-diff(1) that allows them to specify the hash function when executed
outside of a repository. But for now, we only convert the code to make
this explicit such that we can stop setting the default hash algorithm
for `the_repository`.

Limiting the widths of names and graphs in the --stat output makes sense

Many programs use diff_result_code() to get a user-visible program exit
code from a diff result (e.g., checking opts.found_changes if
--exit-code was requested).
This function also takes a "status" parameter, which seems at first
glance that it could be used to propagate an error encountered when
computing the diff. But it doesn't work that way:
- negative values are passed through as-is, but are not appropriate as
program exit codes
- when --exit-code or --check is in effect, we _ignore_ the passed-in
status completely. So a failed diff which did not have a chance to
set opts.found_changes would erroneously report "success, no
changes" instead of propagating the error.
After recent cleanups, neither of these bugs is possible to trigger, as
every caller just passes in "0". So rather than fixing them, we can
simply drop the useless parameter instead.

Since git-diff has many diff modes, it dispatches to many helpers to
perform each one. But every helper simply returns "0", as it exits
directly if there are serious errors (and options like --exit-code are
handled afterwards). So let's get rid of these useless return values,
which makes the code flow more clear.
There's very little chance that we'd later want to propagate errors
instead of dying immediately. These are all static-local helpers for the
git-diff program implementing its various modes. More "lib-ified" code
would directly call the underlying functions.

Neither of these functions ever returns a value other than zero.
Instead, they expect unrecoverable errors to exit immediately, and
things like "--exit-code" are stored inside the diff_options struct to
be handled later via diff_result_code().
Some callers do check the return values, but many don't bother. Let's
drop the useless return values, which are misleading callers about how
the functions work. This could be seen as a step in the wrong direction,
as we might want to eventually "lib-ify" these to more cleanly return
errors up the stack, in which case we'd have to add the return values
back in. But there are some benefits to doing this now:
1. In the current code, somebody could accidentally add a "return -1"
to one of the functions, which would be erroneously ignored by many
callers. By removing the return code, the compiler can notice the
mismatch and force the developer to decide what to do.
Obviously the other option here is that we could start consistently
checking the error code in every caller. But it would be dead code,
and we wouldn't get any compile-time help in catching new cases.
2. It communicates the situation to callers, who may want to choose a
different function. These functions are really thin wrappers for
doing git-diff-files and git-diff-index within the process. But
callers who care about recovering from an error here are probably
better off using the underlying library functions, many of
which do return errors.
If somebody eventually wants to teach these functions to propagate
errors, they'll have to switch back to returning a value, effectively
reverting this patch. But at least then they will be starting with a
level playing field: they know that they will need to inspect each
caller to see how it should handle the error.

When the git-diff program fails to read the index in its diff-files or
diff-index helper functions, it propagates the error up the stack. This
eventually lands in diff_result_code(), which does not handle it well
(as discussed in the previous patch).
Since the only sensible thing here is to exit with an error code (and
what we were expecting the propagated error code to cause), let's just
do that directly.
There's no test here, as I'm not even sure this case can be triggered.
The index-reading functions tend to die() themselves when encountering
any errors, and the return value is just the number of entries in the
file (and so always 0 or positive). But let's err on the conservative
side and keep checking the return value. It may be worth digging into as
a separate topic (though index-reading is low-level enough that we
probably want to eventually teach it to propagate errors anyway for
lib-ification purposes, at which point this code would already be doing
the right thing).

The git-diff command has many modes (comparing worktree to index, index
to HEAD, individual blobs, etc). As a result, it dispatches to many
helper functions and cannot completely parse its options until we're in
those helper functions.
Most of them, when seeing an unknown option, exit immediately by calling
usage(). But builtin_diff_files(), which is the default if no revision
or blob arguments are given, instead prints an error() and returns -1.
One obvious shortcoming here is that the user doesn't get to see the
usual usage message. But there's a much more important bug: the -1
return is fed to diff_result_code(), which is not ready to handle it.
By default, it passes the code along as an exit code. We try to avoid
negative exit codes because they get converted to unsigned values, but
it should at least consistently show up as non-zero (i.e., a failure).
But much worse is that when --exit-code is in effect, diff_result_code()
will _ignore_ the status passed in by the caller, and instead only
report on whether the diff found changes. It didn't, of course, because
we never ran the diff, and the program unexpectedly exits with success!
We can fix this bug by just calling usage(), like the other helpers do.
Another option would of course be to teach diff_result_code() to handle
this value. But as we'll see in the next few patches, it can be cleaned
up even further. Let's just fix this bug directly to start with.

A few commands don't take any options at all, and confirm this by
checking argc. After that they have no need to look at argv, but we're
still stuck with it by convention. Let's annotate these cases so that
the compiler doesn't complain with -Wunused-parameter.
Note that in scalar and get-tar-commit-id, we're forced to keep argv by
calling convention (the functions must match cmd_main() and builtin
cmd_foo() conventions, respectively). In diff, these are subcommand
modes that we call individually, so we _could_ just drop the argv
parameters entirely. But it's weird to pass argc without argv, and it
implies that the caller knows that the subcommands aren't interested in
further arguments. It's less confusing to just keep them and silence the
compiler warning.

For a lot of uses of UNLEAK() it would be quite tricky to release the
memory involved, or we're missing the relevant *_(release|clear)()
functions. But in these cases we have them already, and can just
invoke them on the variable(s) involved, instead of UNLEAK().
For "builtin/worktree.c" the UNLEAK() was also added in [1], but the
struct member it's unleaking was removed in [2]. The only non-"int"
member of that structure is "const char *keep_locked", which comes to
us via "argv" or a string literal[3].
We have good visibility via the compiler and
tooling (e.g. SANITIZE=address) on bad free()-ing, but none on
UNLEAK() we don't need anymore. So let's prefer releasing the memory
when it's easy.
For "bugreport", "worktree" and "config" we need to start using a "ret
= ..." return pattern. For "builtin/bugreport.c" these UNLEAK() were
added in [4], and for "builtin/config.c" in [1].
For "config" the code seen here was the only user of the "value"
variable. For "ACTION_{RENAME,REMOVE}_SECTION" we need to be sure to
return the right exit code in the cases where we were relying on
falling through to the top-level.
I think there's still a use-case for UNLEAK(), but hat it's changed
since then. Using it so that "we can see the real leaks" is
counter-productive in these cases.
It's more useful to have UNLEAK() be a marker of the remaining odd
cases where it's hard to free() the memory for whatever reason. With
this change less than 20 of them remain in-tree.

Change commands in the "diff" family and "rev-list" to separate the
usage information and option listing with an empty line.
In the case of "git diff -h" we did this already (but let's use a
consistent "\n" pattern there), for the rest these are now consistent
with how the parse_options() API would emit usage.
As we'll see in a subsequent commit this also helps to make the "git
<cmd> -h" output more easily machine-readable, as we can assume that
the usage information is separated from the options by an empty line.
Note that "COMMON_DIFF_OPTIONS_HELP" starts with a "\n", so the
seeming omission of a "\n" here is correct, the second one is provided
by the macro.

revision.c::handle_revision_arg_1() resolves <rev>^! by first adding the

the first tree to be the merge and the remaining ones to be the parents,
though. This mismatch results in bogus diff output.
Remember the first tree that doesn't belong to a parent and use it
instead of blindly picking the first one. This makes "git diff <rev>^!"
