A syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, grep, and blame output
Support external subcommands: rg, diff, git-show (etc.) (#1769)
* Support external subcommands: rg, git show, git log (etc.) The possible command line now is: delta <delta-args> [SUBCMD <subcmd-args>] If the entire command line fails to parse because SUBCMD is unknown, then try (until the next arg fails) parsing <delta-args> only, and then parse and call SUBCMD.., its output is piped into delta. Other subcommands also take precedence over the diff/git-diff mode (`delta a b`, where e.g. a=git and b=show), and any diff call gets converted into an external subcommand first. Available are: delta rg .. => rg --json .. | delta delta a b .. => git diff a b .. | delta delta git show .. => git <color-on> show .. | delta and all other git-CMDS, of which add -p, blame, checkout -p, diff, grep, log -p, reflog -p, and stash show -p produce a diff. Because --json is automatically added for `delta rg ..`, it avoids the parsing ambiguities of and is easier to type than `rg .. | delta`. The piping is not done by the shell, but delta, so the subcommands are now child processes of delta. * Set calling process directly because delta started it This info then takes precedence over whatever start_determining_calling_process_in_thread() finds or rather doesn't find. (The simple yet generous SeqCst is used on purpose for the atomic operations.)
