Description
Parse a literal similarity index percentage line.
Git and diff tokens encode references, object metadata and patch coordinates. Parsing a local token does not resolve repository objects, establish identity or prove that a patch is complete or applicable.
Parse a literal similarity index percentage line.
When to use this tool
Use Git Diff Copy Similarity Score Token when inspecting the stated bounded Git or patch token.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter line. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read percent. Use the output convention below.
Parse a literal similarity index percentage line. Require the exact phrase and 1-3 decimal digits followed by percent, bounded to [0,100]; return percent.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| line | Line | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| percent | Percent | Required. Safe integer. |
{
"input": {
"line": "similarity index 95%"
},
"output": {
"percent": 95
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No copy/rename detection or source-file comparison is performed.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use Git itself against the intended repository for object resolution, complete validation, history interpretation or patch application.
