Problem: resolved_hunks and virtual text persisted when a diff buffer
was re-read, showing stale (resolved) markers for hunks that were no
longer resolved.
Solution: clear resolved_hunks[bufnr] and the merge namespace at the
top of setup_keymaps so each buffer init starts fresh.
Problem: goto_next and goto_prev in the merge module wrapped silently
when reaching the last or first unresolved hunk.
Solution: add vim.notify before the wrap-around jump in both functions.
Problem: goto_next and goto_prev wrapped silently when reaching the
last or first conflict, giving no indication to the user.
Solution: add vim.notify before the wrap-around jump in both functions.
Problem: git quotes filenames containing spaces, unicode, or special
characters (e.g. M "path with spaces/file.lua"). parse_file_line
passed the quotes through, causing file-not-found on diff operations.
Solution: add unquote() helper that strips surrounding quotes and
unescapes \\, \", \n, \t, and octal \NNN sequences. Apply it to both
filename returns in parse_file_line.
## Problem
Pressing `du` on a `UU` (unmerged) file in the fugitive status buffer
had no
effect. There was no way to see a proper ours-vs-theirs diff with syntax
highlighting and intra-line changes, or to resolve conflicts from within
a
unified diff view.
Additionally, pressing `du` on a section header containing only unmerged
files
showed "no changes in section" because `git diff` produces combined
(`diff --cc`)
output for unmerged files, which was stripped entirely.
## Solution
Fetch `:2:` (ours) and `:3:` (theirs) from the git index and generate a
standard
unified diff. The existing highlight pipeline (treesitter + intra-line)
applies
automatically. Resolution keymaps (`doo`/`dot`/`dob`/`don`) on hunks in
the diff
view write changes back to the working file's conflict markers.
Navigation
(`]x`/`[x`) jumps between unresolved conflict hunks.
For section diffs, combined diff entries are now replaced with generated
ours-vs-theirs unified diffs instead of being stripped.
Works for merge, cherry-pick, and rebase conflicts — git populates
`:2:`/`:3:`
the same way for all three.
Closes#61
Problem: resolving the last conflict called M.detach(), which cleared
attached_buffers[bufnr]. The TextChanged callback then returned true,
permanently deleting the autocmd. Undo restored conflict markers but
nothing re-highlighted or re-suppressed diagnostics.
Solution: inline the cleanup in refresh() instead of calling detach().
Keep attached_buffers set so the autocmd survives. Re-suppress
diagnostics when conflicts reappear after undo.
Problem: when git hits a merge conflict, users stare at raw <<<<<<<
markers with broken treesitter and noisy LSP diagnostics. Existing
solutions (git-conflict.nvim) use their own highlighting rather than
integrating with diffs.nvim's color blending pipeline.
Solution: add conflict.lua module that detects <<<<<<</=======/>>>>>>>
markers (with diff3 ||||||| support), highlights ours/theirs/base
regions with blended DiffsConflict* highlight groups, provides
resolution keymaps (doo/dot/dob/don) and navigation (]x/[x),
suppresses diagnostics while markers are present, and auto-detaches
when all conflicts are resolved. Fires DiffsConflictResolved user
event on last resolution.
Problem: diffs:// buffers could trigger spurious LSP diagnostics,
opening multiple diffs from fugitive created redundant splits, and
there was no quick way to close diff windows.
Solution: disable diagnostics on diff buffers, reuse existing
diffs:// windows in the tabpage instead of creating new splits,
and add a buffer-local q keymap to close diff windows.
Problem: the header context string (e.g. "function M.setup()") was
parsed in isolation by treesitter, which couldn't recognize "function"
as @keyword.function because the snippet is an incomplete definition
with no body or "end".
Solution: append the already-built new_code lines as trailing context
when parsing the header string, giving treesitter a complete function
definition. Filter captures to row 0 only so body-line captures don't
produce extmarks on the header line.
Problem: hl_eol requires a multiline extmark to extend the background
past end-of-line. The extmark used end_col = line_len on the same
row, so it was single-line and hl_eol was effectively a no-op.
Solution: replace end_col with end_row targeting the next line so
the extmark is multiline and hl_eol takes effect. Split
number_hl_group into a separate extmark to prevent it bleeding to
adjacent lines.
Problem: highlight_treesitter only iterated captures from the base
language tree (trees[1]:root()). When code contained injected
languages (e.g. VimL inside vim.cmd()), those captures were never
read, so injected code got no syntax highlighting in diffs.
Solution: pass true to parse() to trigger injection discovery, then
use parser_obj:for_each_tree() to iterate all trees including
injected ones. Each tree gets its own highlights query looked up by
ltree:lang(), and @spell/@nospell captures are filtered out.
Problem: highlights.context was a plain integer, inconsistent with the
table structure used by treesitter, vim, and intra sub-configs.
Solution: change to { enabled = true, lines = 25 } with full
vim.validate() coverage matching the existing pattern.
Problem: treesitter parses each diff hunk in isolation, so incomplete
syntax constructs at hunk boundaries (e.g., a function definition with
no body) produce ERROR nodes and drop captures.
Solution: read N lines from the on-disk file before/after each hunk and
prepend/append them as unmapped padding lines. The line_map guard in
highlight_treesitter skips extmarks for unmapped lines, so padding
provides syntax context without visual output. Controlled by
highlights.context (default 25, 0 to disable). Also applies to the vim
syntax fallback path via a leading_offset filter.
Problem: highlight_treesitter concatenated all hunk lines (context, -,
+) into a single string. Mixed old/new code produced invalid syntax
(e.g. two return statements), causing treesitter error recovery to drop
captures on lines after the syntax error.
Solution: split hunk lines into two versions — new (context + added)
and old (context + deleted) — each parsed independently. Use a line_map
to resolve treesitter row indices to buffer lines, with the old version
only mapping deleted lines to avoid duplicate extmarks on context.
Also fixes three related issues exposed by the improved TS coverage:
- Replace Normal extmark with DiffsClear (explicit fg from Normal.fg).
Normal in extmarks doesn't reliably override vim :syntax foreground.
- Reorder priority stack to DiffsClear(198) < syntax(199) < line
bg(200) < char bg(201). TS capture groups can carry colorscheme
backgrounds that would override diff line backgrounds at higher
priority.
- Gate DiffsClear on per-line coverage tracking. Only clear fugitive
syntax fg on lines where TS/vim actually produced captures, preventing
force-clearing on lines where error recovery drops captures.
Problem: running :e on a :Gdiff buffer cleared all content because
diffs:// buffers had no BufReadCmd handler. Neovim tried to read the
buffer name as a file path, found nothing on disk, and emptied the
buffer. This affected all three buffer creation paths (gdiff,
gdiff_file, gdiff_section).
Solution: register a BufReadCmd autocmd for diffs://* that parses the
URL and regenerates diff content from git. Change buffer options from
nofile/wipe to nowrite/delete (matching fugitive's approach) so
buffer-local autocmds and variables survive across unload/reload
cycles. Store old filepath as buffer variable for rename support.
'default' inherits algorithm and linematch from diffopt, 'vscode' uses
the FFI library. Removes the need for diffs.nvim to duplicate settings
that users already control globally.
line_hl_group bg occupies a separate rendering channel from hl_group in
Neovim's extmark system, causing character-level bg-only highlights to be
invisible regardless of priority. Switching to hl_group + hl_eol ensures
all backgrounds compete in the same channel.
Also reorders priorities (Normal 198 < line bg 199 < syntax 200 < char
bg 201), bumps char-level blend alpha from 0.4 to 0.7 for visibility,
and adds debug logging throughout the intra pipeline.
Line-level backgrounds (DiffsAdd/DiffsDelete) now get a second tier:
changed characters within modified lines receive an intense background
overlay (DiffsAddText/DiffsDeleteText at 70% alpha vs 40% for lines).
Treesitter foreground colors show through since the extmarks only set bg.
diff.lua extracts contiguous -/+ change groups from hunk lines and diffs
each group byte-by-byte using vim.diff(). An optional libvscodediff FFI
backend (lib.lua) auto-downloads the .so from codediff.nvim releases and
falls back to native if unavailable.
New config: highlights.intra.{enabled, algorithm, max_lines}. Gated by
max_lines (default 200) to avoid stalling on huge hunks. Priority 201
sits above treesitter (200) so the character bg always wins.
Closes#60
When a file has no extension but contains a shebang (e.g., `#!/bin/bash`),
filetype detection now reads the first 10 lines from disk and uses
`vim.filetype.match({ filename, contents })` for content-based detection.
This enables syntax highlighting for files like `build` scripts that rely
on shebang detection, even when the file isn't open in a buffer.
Detection order:
1. Existing buffer's filetype (already implemented in #69)
2. File content (shebang/modeline) - NEW
3. Filename extension only
Also adds `filetype on` to test helpers to ensure `vim.g.ft_ignore_pat`
is set, which is required for shell detection.
When pressing `du`/`dU` from a hunk line in the fugitive status buffer
(after expanding with `=`), the unified diff now opens at the
corresponding line instead of line 1.
Implementation:
- `fugitive.get_hunk_position()` returns @@ header and offset when on a hunk line
- `commands.find_hunk_line()` finds matching @@ header in diff buffer
- `commands.gdiff_file()` accepts optional `hunk_position` and jumps after opening
Also updates @phanen's README credit for the previous two fixes.
Closes#65
Files detected via shebang or modeline (e.g., `build` with `#!/bin/bash`)
weren't getting syntax highlighting because `vim.filetype.match()` only
does filename-based detection.
Now `get_ft_from_filename()` first checks if a buffer already exists for
the file and uses its detected filetype. This requires knowing the repo
root to construct the full path, so:
- `parse_buffer()` reads `b:diffs_repo_root` or `b:git_dir` (fugitive)
- `commands.lua` sets `b:diffs_repo_root` on diff buffers it creates

Previously, hunks were discarded entirely if vim.filetype.match()
returned nil. This meant files with unrecognized extensions got no
highlighting at all - not even the basic green/red backgrounds for
added/deleted lines.
Remove the (current_lang or current_ft) condition from flush_hunk()
so all hunks are collected. highlight_hunk() already handles the
case where ft/lang are nil by skipping syntax highlighting but still
applying background colors.

Parse both old and new filenames from rename lines (R old -> new).
When diffing staged renames, use old filename as base to correctly
show content changes rather than treating the file as entirely new.
Also adds comprehensive tests for filename edge cases:
- Double extensions, hyphens, underscores, dotfiles
- Deep nested paths, complex renames
- Documents known limitation with filenames containing ' -> '
Section headers (Staged/Unstaged) now show all diffs in that section,
matching fugitive's behavior. Untracked files show as all-added diffs.
Deleted files show as all-removed diffs.
Also handles edge cases:
- Empty new/old content for deleted/new files
- Section header detection returns is_header flag
Compares current buffer against any git revision (default HEAD), opens result
with full diffs.nvim syntax highlighting. Follows fugitive convention:
:Gdiff/:Gvdiff open vertical split, :Ghdiff opens horizontal split.
Apply treesitter highlighting to diff metadata lines (diff --git, index,
---, +++) using the diff language parser. Header info is attached only
to the first hunk of each file to avoid duplicate highlighting.
Based on PR #52 by @phanen with fixes:
- header_lines now only contains diff metadata, not hunk content
- header info attached only to first hunk per file
- removed arbitrary hunk count restriction
