Summary

  • wire the exact two-dot and three-dot resolver into canonical HTML, JSON, terminal, and --structural-json output
  • read both sides from immutable Git blobs and record the exact comparison-base/head OIDs in diff_ref
  • preserve exact pre/post blob identities in file evidence
  • retain caller-relative pathspec scoping, including path names that themselves contain ..
  • return a schema-valid structured warning artifact for invalid refs instead of false changes
  • document explicit range syntax and provenance behavior

Verification

  • python3 -m pytest -q — 110 passed
  • python3 -m compileall -q diffgraph tests mcp_server.py build.py
  • git diff --check
  • cross-repo compatibility check: the DiffGraph v2 schema is unchanged; the existing commit_range diff_ref shape is used, so no extension fixture or website claim change is required

Remaining work

Broader binary/missing/undecodable edge-case fixtures and additional resolver-to-artifact provenance refinements remain in #21.

Part of #21

Walkthrough

The CLI supports explicit two-dot and three-dot Git comparisons. It resolves immutable commits or merge bases, preserves pathspecs, records object identities, validates operands, and documents the supported forms.

Changes

Commit-range analysis

Layer / File(s) Summary
Range scope parsing
diffgraph/cli.py, tests/test_structural.py
The CLI models unstaged, staged, two-dot, and three-dot scopes. It preserves pathspecs after -- and rejects malformed or incompatible operands.
Immutable range resolution
diffgraph/structural.py, tests/test_structural.py
Structural analysis resolves commit ranges and merge bases, reads immutable snapshots, records resolved OIDs and blob identities, and reports invalid references through structured warnings.
Artifact wiring and usage contract
diffgraph/artifact.py, diffgraph/cli.py, README.md
Artifact construction forwards range parameters. Documentation describes comparison forms, pathspec placement, recorded identities, and warning behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to bda56

The PR adds canonical commit-range artifact behavior and reports passing tests and validation checks; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal review.

- Around line 379-381: Update terminal-flag parsing in _terminal_options so
literal pathspecs after the -- boundary, including --compact and --all, are
preserved. Only recognize terminal flags before the pathspec boundary, keeping
_pathspecs_after_diff_separator(raw_args) consistent with diff_args and
preventing _structural_scope from raising the pathspec-scope error.
- Around line 178-188: Update _range_operand to reject operands containing four
or more consecutive dots before selecting or splitting the two- or three-dot
separator, raising the existing click.UsageError for malformed ranges while
preserving valid BASE..HEAD and BASE...HEAD handling.
