Subject: [PATCH 3/5] xdiff: introduce XDF_INEXACT_MATCH

From: Junio C Hamano <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 19 Feb 2012 18:16:26 -0800

The XDF_WHITESPACE_FLAGS mask is used to decide if a simple memcmp() is
sufficient to tell if two lines are the same for the purpose of producing
diff. In the current code, only options in the ignore-whitespace family
happen to call for a matching logic that is more complex than memcmp(),
but when we add new options, e.g. ignore-case, it will become apparent
that the mask is misnamed.

Introduce XDF_INEXACT_MATCH mask to express its true meaning: when any of
these bits are set, we may need to inspect the contents of the two lines
that are not exactly the same, as we may still consider them "matching".

The XDF_WHITESPACE_FLAGS will become useful again in a later patch in the
series and its definition is kept.
