+diff-highlight
+==============
+
+Line oriented diffs are great for reviewing code, because for most
+hunks, you want to see the old and the new segments of code next to each
+other. Sometimes, though, when an old line and a new line are very
+similar, it's hard to immediately see the difference.
+
+You can use "--color-words" to highlight only the changed portions of
+lines. However, this can often be hard to read for code, as it loses
+the line structure, and you end up with oddly formatted bits.
+
+Instead, this script post-processes the line-oriented diff, finds pairs
+of lines, and highlights the differing segments. It's currently very
+simple and stupid about doing these tasks. In particular:
+
+ 1. It will only highlight a pair of lines if they are the only two
+ lines in a hunk. It could instead try to match up "before" and
+ "after" lines for a given hunk into pairs of similar lines.
+ However, this may end up visually distracting, as the paired
+ lines would have other highlighted lines in between them. And in
+ practice, the lines which most need attention called to their
+ small, hard-to-see changes are touching only a single line.
+
+ 2. It will find the common prefix and suffix of two lines, and
+ consider everything in the middle to be "different". It could
+ instead do a real diff of the characters between the two lines and
+ find common subsequences. However, the point of the highlight is to
+ call attention to a certain area. Even if some small subset of the
+ highlighted area actually didn't change, that's OK. In practice it
+ ends up being more readable to just have a single blob on the line
+ showing the interesting bit.
+
+The goal of the script is therefore not to be exact about highlighting
+changes, but to call attention to areas of interest without being
+visually distracting. Non-diff lines and existing diff coloration is
+preserved; the intent is that the output should look exactly the same as
+the input, except for the occasional highlight.
+
+Use

+
+You can try out the diff-highlight program with:
+
+---------------------------------------------
+git log -p --color | /path/to/diff-highlight

+following in your git configuration:
+
+---------------------------------------------
+[pager]
+ log = diff-highlight | less
+ show = diff-highlight | less
+ diff = diff-highlight | less

+git-jump
+========
+
+Git-jump is a script for helping you jump to "interesting" parts of your
+project in your editor. It works by outputting a set of interesting
+spots in the "quickfix" format, which editors like vim can use as a
+queue of places to visit (this feature is usually used to jump to errors
+produced by a compiler). For example, given a diff like this:
+
+------------------------------------
+diff --git a/foo.c b/foo.c
+index a655540..5a59044 100644
+--- a/foo.c
++++ b/foo.c
+@@ -1,3 +1,3 @@
+ int main(void) {
+- printf("hello word!\n");
++ printf("hello world!\n");
+ }
+-----------------------------------
+
+git-jump will feed this to the editor:
+
+-----------------------------------
+foo.c:2: printf("hello word!\n");
+-----------------------------------
+
+Obviously this trivial case isn't that interesting; you could just open
+`foo.c` yourself. But when you have many changes scattered across a
+project, you can use the editor's support to "jump" from point to point.
+
+Git-jump can generate three types of interesting lists:
+
+ 1. The beginning of any diff hunks.
+
+ 2. The beginning of any merge conflict markers.
+
+ 3. Any grep matches.
+
+
+Using git-jump
+--------------
+
+To use it, just drop git-jump in your PATH, and then invoke it like
+this:
+
+--------------------------------------------------
+# jump to changes not yet staged for commit
+git jump diff
+
+# jump to changes that are staged for commit; you can give
+# arbitrary diff options
+git jump diff --cached
+
+# jump to merge conflicts
+git jump merge
+
+# jump to all instances of foo_bar
+git jump grep foo_bar
+
+# same as above, but case-insensitive; you can give
+# arbitrary grep options
+git jump grep -i foo_bar
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+
+Related Programs
+----------------
+
+You can accomplish some of the same things with individual tools. For
+example, you can use `git mergetool` to start vimdiff on each unmerged
+file. `git jump merge` is for the vim-wielding luddite who just wants to
+jump straight to the conflict text with no fanfare.
+
+As of git v1.7.2, `git grep` knows the `--open-files-in-pager` option,
+which does something similar to `git jump grep`. However, it is limited
+to positioning the cursor to the correct line in only the first file,
+leaving you to locate subsequent hits in that file or other files using
+the editor or pager. By contrast, git-jump provides the editor with a
+complete list of files and line numbers for each match.
+
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+This scripts was written and tested with vim. Given that the quickfix
+format is the same as what gcc produces, I expect emacs users have a
+similar feature for iterating through the list, but I know nothing about
+how to activate it.
+
+The shell snippets to generate the quickfix lines will almost certainly
+choke on filenames with exotic characters (like newlines).

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] completion: match ctags symbol names in grep patterns
A common thing to grep for is the name of a symbol. This
patch teaches the completion for "git grep" to look in
a 'tags' file, if present, to complete a pattern. For
example, in git.git:
$ make tags
$ git grep get_sha1<Tab><Tab>
get_sha1 get_sha1_oneline
get_sha1_1 get_sha1_with_context
get_sha1_basic get_sha1_with_context_1
get_sha1_hex get_sha1_with_mode
get_sha1_hex_segment get_sha1_with_mode_1
get_sha1_mb
