The callback-based method of listing remote references dates back to the
beginning of the network code's lifetime, when we didn't know any
better.
We need to keep the list around for update_tips() after disconnect() so
let's make use of this to simply give the user a pointer to the array so
they can write straightforward code instead of having to go through a
callback.
This avoids sending our whole history bit by bit to the remote in cases
where there is no common history, just to give up in the end.
The number comes from the canonical implementation.
This tells the server that we speak it, but we don't make use of its
extra information to determine if there's a better place to stop
negotiating.
In a somewhat-related change, reorder the capabilities so we ask for
them in the same order as git does.
Also take this opportunity to factor out a fairly-indented portion of
the negotiation logic.
It was there to keep it apart from the one which read in from a file on
disk. This other indexer does not exist anymore, so there is no need for
anything other than git_indexer to refer to it.
While here, rename _add() function to _append() and _finalize() to
_commit(). The former change is cosmetic, while the latter avoids
talking about "finalizing", which OO languages use to mean something
completely different.
The names from libssh2 are somewhat obtuse for us. We can simplify the
usual key/passphrase credential's name, as well as make clearer what the
custom signature function is.
This commit adds cancellation for the push operation. This work consists of:
1) Support cancellation during push operation
- During object counting phase
- During network transfer phase
- Propagate GIT_EUSER error code out to caller
2) Improve cancellation support during fetch
- Handle cancellation request during network transfer phase
- Clear error string when cancelled during indexing
3) Fix error handling in git_smart__download_pack
Cancellation during push is still only handled in the pack building and
network transfer stages of push (and not during packbuilding).
This adds the basics of progress reporting during push. While progress
for all aspects of a push operation are not reported with this change,
it lays the foundation to add these later. Push progress reporting
can be improved in the future - and consumers of the API should
just get more accurate information at that point.
The main areas where this is lacking are:
1) packbuilding progress: does not report progress during deltafication,
as this involves coordinating progress from multiple threads.
2) network progress: reports progress as objects and bytes are going
to be written to the subtransport (instead of as client gets
confirmation that they have been received by the server) and leaves
out some of the bytes that are transfered as part of the push protocol.
Basically, this reports the pack bytes that are written to the
subtransport. It does not report the bytes sent on the wire that
are received by the server. This should be a good estimate of
progress (and an improvement over no progress).
The subtransport path was relying on pointing to data owned by
the remote which meant that after a redirect, the updated path
was getting lost for future requests. This updates the http
transport to strdup the path and maintain its own lifetime.
This also pulls responsibility for parsing the URL back into the
http transport and isolates the functions that parse and free that
connection data so that they can be reused between the initial
parsing and the redirect parsing.
