git diff中的"index f2e4113..d4b9bfc 100644"如何与gitk中的SHA1 ID对应？

Question

'index f2e4113..d4b9bfc 100644'在git diff的输出中是什么意思？到目前为止我假设这些SHA1 ID是from_version..to_version,但我无法在gitk中找到它们.

$ git --version
git version 1.8.3.4
$ git diff ae1fdc1
diff --git a/README b/README
index f2e4113..d4b9bfc 100644
--- a/README
+++ b/README
@@ -1 +1,3 @@

'index f2e4113..d4b9bfc 100644'看起来不像diff统一格式的一部分. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diff#Unified_format

100644看起来像文件模式,但不对应于README文件的模式(660).

f2e4113..d4b9bfc是SHA1 ID短缺.'git rev-parse'给出了长SHA1.以上示例中的所有三个缺点都是:

ae1fdc1 - ae1fdc1e7b2f018a15c421f2f22b7c77215c5d61
d4b9bfc - d4b9bfcd51a3eaf427d337a30b12d1f3dbdd21b4
f2e4113 - f2e41136eac73c39554dede1fd7e67b12502d577

但为什么ae1fdc1不对应diff的第一部分或第二部分？为什么我不能使用gitk找到d4b9bfc或d4b9bfc？

编辑:@wiswit指出了这个很好的解释.

f2e4113并且d4b9bfc是文件索引.在git show f2e4113提交之前看到文件并在提交git show d4b9bfc后显示文件.

该合并的差异格式是在所描述的git的差异手册页.

COMBINED DIFF FORMAT
   Any diff-generating command can take the ‘-c` or --cc option to produce a 
   combined diff when showing a merge. This is the default format when showing 
   merges with git-diff(1) or git-show(1). Note also that you can give the `-m’
   option to any of these commands to force generation of diffs with individual 
   parents of a merge.

   A combined diff format looks like this:

       diff --combined describe.c
       index fabadb8,cc95eb0..4866510
       --- a/describe.c
       +++ b/describe.c
       @@@ -98,20 -98,12 +98,20 @@@
               return (a_date > b_date) ? -1 : (a_date == b_date) ? 0 : 1;
         }

       - static void describe(char *arg)
        -static void describe(struct commit *cmit, int last_one)
       ++static void describe(char *arg, int last_one)
         {
        +      unsigned char sha1[20];
        +      struct commit *cmit;
               struct commit_list *list;
               static int initialized = 0;
               struct commit_name *n;

        +      if (get_sha1(arg, sha1) < 0)
        +              usage(describe_usage);
        +      cmit = lookup_commit_reference(sha1);
        +      if (!cmit)
        +              usage(describe_usage);
        +
               if (!initialized) {
                       initialized = 1;
                       for_each_ref(get_name);

    1. It is preceded with a "git diff" header, that looks like this (when -c 
       option is used):

           diff --combined file

       or like this (when --cc option is used):

           diff --cc file

    2. It is followed by one or more extended header lines (this example shows
       a merge with two parents):

           index <hash>,<hash>..<hash>
           mode <mode>,<mode>..<mode>
           new file mode <mode>
           deleted file mode <mode>,<mode>

       The mode <mode>,<mode>..<mode> line appears only if at least one of the 
       <mode> is different from the rest. Extended headers with information 
       about  detected contents movement (renames and copying detection) are
       designed to work with diff of two <tree-ish> and are not used by combined
       diff format.

    3. It is followed by two-line from-file/to-file header

           --- a/file
           +++ b/file

       Similar to two-line header for traditional unified diff format, 
       /dev/null is used to signal created or deleted files.

    4. Chunk header format is modified to prevent people from accidentally
       feeding it to patch -p1. Combined diff format was created for review 
       of merge commit changes, and was not meant for apply. The change is 
       similar to the change in the extended index header:

           @@@ <from-file-range> <from-file-range> <to-file-range> @@@

       There are (number of parents + 1) @ characters in the chunk header for 
       combined diff format.

   Unlike the traditional unified diff format, which shows two files A and B
   with a single column that has - (minus — appears in A but removed in B),
   + (plus — missing in A but added to B), or " " (space — unchanged) prefix,
   this format compares two or more files file1, file2,... with one file X, 
   and shows how X differs from each of fileN. One column for each of fileN is
   prepended to the output line to note how X’s line is different from it.

   A - character in the column N means that the line appears in fileN but it
   does not appear in the result. A + character in the column N means that
   the line appears in the result, and fileN does not have that line (in 
   other words, the line was added, from the point of view of that parent).

   In the above example output, the function signature was changed from both
   files (hence two - removals from both file1 and file2, plus ++ to mean one 
   line that was added does not appear in either file1 nor file2). Also eight 
   other lines are the same from file1 but do not appear in file2 (hence 
   prefixed with +).

   When shown by git diff-tree -c, it compares the parents of a merge commit
   with the merge result (i.e. file1..fileN are the parents). When shown by 
   git diff-files -c, it compares the two unresolved merge parents with the 
   working tree file (i.e. file1 is stage 2 aka "our version", file2 is stage 
   3 aka "their version").
