Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] diff: the -w option breaks --exit-code for --raw and other output modes
Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2023 16:59:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230818235932.3253552-6-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230818235932.3253552-1-gitster@pobox.com>

The output from "--raw", "--name-status", and "--name-only" modes in
"git diff" does depend on and does not reflect how certain different
contents are considered equal, unlike "--patch" and "--stat" output
modes do, when used with options like "-w" (another way of thinking
about it is that it is not like we recompute the hash of the blob
after removing all whitespaces to show "git diff --raw -w" output).

But that is not an excuse for "git diff --exit-code --raw" to fail
to report differences with its exit status, when used with options
like "-w".  Make sure the command exits with 1 when these options
report paths that are different.
