Subject: bzr: just give me a context diff, will you?
Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 18:00:03 +0000 [thread overview]

Hi, Emacs!
The project standard for diff output is a context diff, not a unified
diff. By default, bzr unfortunately outputs unified.
For anybody else who finds typing "--diff-options='-c'" intolerably
long-winded, here is a quick hack in bzr to make context diffs the
default. The file is ..../bzr-2.1.0/bzrlib/diff.py.
*** diff.py~ 2010-02-16 17:00:21.000000000 +0000
--- diff.py 2010-04-20 17:42:45.059802592 +0000

extra_factories = [DiffFromTool.make_from_diff_tree(using)]
else:
extra_factories = []

+ # Added 2010-04-20 to make context diffs the default.
+ if not external_diff_options:
+ external_diff_options = '-c'

if external_diff_options:
opts = external_diff_options.split()
