This converts the git attr related code (including ignores) and
the git diff related code (and implicitly the status code) to use
`git_pools` for storing strings. This reduces the number of small
blocks allocated dramatically.
This adds preliminary support for pathspecs to diff and status.
The implementation is not very optimized (it still looks at
every single file and evaluated the the pathspec match against
them), but it works.
This adds support for a bunch of core.* settings that affect
diff and status, plus fixes up some incorrect implementations
of those settings from before. Also, this cleans up the
handling of config settings in the new submodules code and
in the old attrs/ignore code.
This continues to add other files to the new error handling
style. I think the only real concerns here are that there are
a couple of error return cases that I have converted to asserts,
but I think that it was the correct thing to do given the new
error style.
When building an attr path object, the code that checks if the
file is a directory was evaluating the file as a relative path
to the current working directory, instead of using the repo root.
This lead to inconsistent behavior.
Per issue #533, the handling of relative paths in attribute
and ignore files was not right. Fixed this by pre-joining
the relative path of the attribute/ignore file onto the match
string when a full path match is required.
Unfortunately, fixing this required a bit more code than I
would have liked because I had to juggle things around so that
the fnmatch parser would have sufficient information to prepend
the relative path when it was needed.
After reviewing the gitignore support with Vicent, we came up
with a list of minor cleanups to prepare for merge, including:
* checking git_repository_config error returns
* renaming git_ignore_is_ignored and moving to status.h
* fixing next_line skipping to include \r skips
* commenting on where ignores are and are not included
Adds support for .gitignore files to git_status_foreach() and
git_status_file(). This includes refactoring the gitattributes
code to share logic where possible. The GIT_STATUS_IGNORED flag
will now be passed in for files that are ignored (provided they
are not already in the index or the head of repo).
Add support for git attribute macro definitions. Also, add
support for cache flush API to clear the attribute file content
cache when needed.
Additionally, improved the handling of global and system files,
making common utility functions in fileops and converting config
and attr to both use the common functions.
Adds a bunch more tests and fixed some memory leaks. Note that
adding macros required me to use refcounted attribute assignment
definitions, which complicated, but probably improved memory usage.
This adds APIs for querying git attributes. In addition to
the new API in include/git2/attr.h, most of the action is in
src/attr_file.[hc] which contains utilities for dealing with
a single attributes file, and src/attr.[hc] which contains
the implementation of the APIs that merge all applicable
attributes files.
