and the final hunk plus context-length aligns exactly with the end
of the newline-lacking file. Diff would fail to output the required
"\ No newline at end of file" line, thus rendering the output invalid.
This bug appears to have been introduced by 2006-05-07
commit 58d0483b, "(find_identical_ends): Fix huge performance bug...",
at least to the extent that reverting that change fixes the bug.
Considering the stated effect of that change and lack of metrics,
reverting it is not an option, so here we take a more direct approach.
Given these inputs,
printf '\n1'>a; printf '\n0\n\n1'>b
and running diff like this:
./diff -U1 a b
for input file "b", the pointer, files[1].linbuf[4][-1], to
the last byte on the final line was mistakenly pointing at the
sentinel newline at EOF, rather than at the preceding byte.
(gdb) p files[1].linbuf[4][-1]
$3 = 10 '\n'
Thus, this test in the final print_1_line call:
if ((!line_flag || line_flag[0]) && limit[-1] != '\n')
fprintf (out, "\n\\ %s\n", _("No newline at end of file"));
would fail, because limit[-1] (which is files[1].linbuf[4][-1])
was mistakenly '\n', rather than the desired '1'.
My first thought was simply to adjust the final linbuf[line] setting,
at the end of io.c's find_and_hash_each_line function function:
if (p == bufend)
- break;
+ {
+ if (current->missing_newline)
+ --linbuf[line];
+ break;
+ }
But that would make diff misbehave with this input
(same as above, but with a newline appended to "a"),
printf '\n1\n'>a; printf '\n0\n\n1'>b
./diff -U1 a b
due to the block (100 lines above) that is triggered in that case
(but not in the both-files-missing-newline case):
if (p == bufend
&& current->missing_newline
&& ROBUST_OUTPUT_STYLE (output_style))
{
/* This line is incomplete. If this is significant,
put the line into buckets[-1]. */
if (ignore_white_space < IGNORE_SPACE_CHANGE)
bucket = &buckets[-1];
/* Omit the inserted newline when computing linbuf later. */
p--;
bufend = suffix_begin = p;
}
Note how "p" is decremented and "bufend" adjusted.
When that happens, we certainly don't want to decrement
"bufend" yet again.
Since there is no other way to determine at the end whether "bufend"
was already decremented, add a new variable to serve as witness.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

* src/diff.c (print_context_function): For languages like Ada
that allow local functions and procedures, the plain context
function line may start with enough blank characters that the
function name does not get completely printed in the 40
characters limit. This patch solves this problem by removing
these useless initial blank characters.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention this change.
With this change, "printf '\0'|diff - /dev/null" now prints
"Binary files - and /dev/null differ" once again.
This reverts 2002-06-28 commit a352f0980,
"(briefly_report): Don't say "Binary files differ", ...".
* src/analyze.c (briefly_report): Do include the "Binary " prefix
in the diagnostic, when !brief.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the diagnostic change.
Reported by Andreas Hoenen in http://bugs.debian.org/570064.
* src/Makefile.am (paths.h): Emit a definition of DEFAULT_DIFF_PROGRAM
that is simply "diff" (or whatever $(transform) would convert that to,
e.g., "gdiff"). This makes it so that tests can work without first
installing diff, and so that the binaries do not hard-code $(prefix).
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention this.
* NEWS: s/the the/the/.
Adjust style to fit what some of the hooks and release tools expect.
* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove sc_the_the.
(old_NEWS_hash): Update.
(specify_ignore_initial): Reword to avoid gcc -W warnings.
(main): Use freopen instead of setmode, since freopen is in POSIX.
* src/context.c: Revert most 2004-09-01 changes. Then:
(TIMESPEC_NS): Remove. All uses replaced by
get_stat_mtime_ns.
Include stat-time.h, strftime.h.
(nstrtime): Remove decl.
* src/diff.c: Revert most 2004-09-01 changes. Then:
Don't include <posixver.h>, <quotesys.h>, <setmode.h>.
Include <sh-quote.h>, <stat-time.h>, <timespec.h>.
All uses of quotesys replaced by sh-quote.
(main, compare_files):
Use freopen instead of setmode, since freopen is in POSIX.
(main): Don't complain about "diff -NUM'.
(main, set_mtime_to_now):
Adjust to stat-time.h macros when accessing nanoseconds.
* src/diff3.c: Include sh-quote.h rather than quotesys. All uses
changed.
* src/dir.c (dir_read): excluded_filename renamed to
excluded_file_name.
* src/io.c: Don't include <setmode.h>.
(sip, read_files): Remove binary file stuff, leaving a FIXME behind.
A DOS expert needs to look at this.
* src/diff.c: Include sh-quote.h rather than quotesys.h.
All uses changed.
* src/system.h: Include verify.h.
(verify): Remove. All uses changed to verify.h version.
Include <intprops.h>.
(TYPE_SIGNED, TYPE_MINIMUM, TYPE_MAXIMUM): Remove. Now uses
intprops.h versions.
(O_BINARY): New defns, taken from coreutils.
* src/util.c: Include sh-quote.h rather than quotesys.h.
All uses changed.
* The test-version environment variables DIFF_OPTIONS and DIFF_PROGRAM
have been withdrawn, as they caused compatibility problems.
You can use aliases or shell script wrappers instead.
