Revert removal of multi-match discard heuristic in 27af01

René Scharfe · gitster · commit c5aa90682f82 · 2011-09-26T11:38:14.000-07:00
27af01d (xdiff/xprepare: improve O(n*m) performance in xdl_cleanup_records(), 2011-08-17) was supposed to be a performance boost only. However, it unexpectedly changed the behaviour of diff. Revert a part of 27af01d that removes logic that mark lines as "multi-match" (ie. dis[i] == 2). This was preventing the multi-match discard heuristic (performed in xdl_cleanup_records() and xdl_clean_mmatch()) from executing.
