I need hunks (lines added and deleted) with context so I used git diff -u to obtain a diff. I can do line.is_added to to obtain lines_added but those line will not include lines of context. How do I parse this diff to get lines_added and lines deleted along with some lines of context. Right now I have
Line 1
......
Line 5
- Line 6
+ Line 7
......
Line n
Essentially I want
lines_deleted = context lines, Line 6, more context lines and
lines_added = context lines , Line 7, more context lines
lines_added = []
for hunk in patched_file:
for line in hunk:
if line.is_added or line .is_context and line.value.strip() != '':
lines_added.append(line.value)
and similarly for the lines_deleted. This shall return:
Line 1
......
Line 5
+ Line 7
......
Line n
assuming all lines other than Line 7 are context lines.
