Create a git_branch_iterator type which is equivalent to the foreach but
lets us write loops instead of callbacks.
Since the introduction of git_reference_shorthand(), the added value of
passing the name is reduced.
There are a number of cases where it is convenient to be able to
fetch and "claim" the current error string, clearing the error.
This is helpful when you need to call some code that may alter
the error and you want to restore it later on and/or report it via
some other mechanism.
In git_checkout_tree, the first check tests if either repo or treeish is
NULL and says that eithor of them has to have a valid value. But there
is no code to handle the treeish == NULL case.
So, do something meaningful in that case: use HEAD instead.
Sometimes the static initializer for git_diff_options cannot be
used and since setting them to all zeroes doesn't actually work
quite right, this adds a new helper for that situation.
This also adds an explicit new value to the submodule settings
options to be used when those enums need static initialization.
This changes `git_index_read` to have two modes - a hard index
reload that always resets the index to match the on-disk data
(which was the old behavior) and a soft index reload that uses
the timestamp / file size information and only replaces the index
data if the file on disk has been modified.
This then updates the git_status code to do a soft reload unless
the new GIT_STATUS_OPT_NO_REFRESH flag is passed in.
This also changes the behavior of the git_diff functions that use
the index so that when an index is not explicitly passed in (i.e.
when the functions call git_repository_index for you), they will
also do a soft reload for you.
This intentionally breaks the file signature of git_index_read
because there has been some confusion about the behavior previously
and it seems like all existing uses of the API should probably be
examined to select the desired behavior.
At some moment git_config_delete_entry lost the ability to delete one entry of
a multivar configuration. The moment you had more than one fetch or push
ref spec for a remote you will not be able to save that remote anymore. The
changes in network::remote::remotes::save show that problem.
I needed to create a new git_config_delete_multivar because I was not able to
remove one or several entries of a multivar config with the current API.
Several tries modifying how git_config_set_multivar(..., NULL) behaved were
not successful.
git_config_delete_multivar is very similar to git_config_set_multivar, and
delegates into config_delete_multivar of config_file. This function search
for the cvar_t that will be deleted, storing them in a temporal array, and
rebuilding the linked list. After calling config_write to delete the entries,
the cvar_t stored in the temporal array are freed.
There is a little fix in config_write, it avoids an infinite loop when using
a regular expression (case for the multivars). This error was found by the
test network::remote::remotes::tagopt.
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 user is unable to derive the number of deltas in the pack, as that
would require them to capture the stats exactly in the moment between
download and final processing, which is abstracted away in the fetch.
Capture these numbers for the user and expose them in the progress
struct. The clone and fetch examples now also present this information
to the user.
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.
It seems that to implement these options, we just have to pass
the appropriate flags through to the libxdiff code taken from
core git. So let's do it (and add a test).
Instead of having functions with so very many parameters to pass
hunk and line data, this takes the existing git_diff_hunk struct
and extends it with more hunk data, plus adds a git_diff_line.
Those structs are used to pass back hunk and line data instead of
the old APIs that took tons of parameters.
Some work that was previously only being done for git_diff_patch
creation (scanning the diff content for exact line counts) is now
done for all callbacks, but the performance difference should not
be noticable.
While the base git_diff_delta structure always contains two files,
when we introduce conflict data, it will be helpful to have an
indicator when an additional file is involved.
This lays groundwork for separating formatting options from diff
creation options. This groups the formatting flags separately
from the diff list creation flags and reorders the options. This
also tweaks some APIs to further separate code that uses patches
from code that just looks at git_diffs.
This makes no functional change to diff but renames a couple of
the objects and splits the new git_patch (formerly git_diff_patch)
into a new header file.
Don't increase the number of total objects, as it can produce
suprising progress output. The only addition compared to pre-thin is
the addition of local_objects to allow an output similar to git's
"completed with %d local objects".
Before these changes, looking up a reference would return the
same precomposed or decomposed form of the reference name that
was used to look it up, so on MacOS which ignores the difference
between the two, a single reference could be looked up either way
and git_reference_name would return the form of the name that was
used to look it up! This change makes lookup always return the
precomposed name if core.precomposeunicode is set regardless of
which version was used to look it up. The reference iterator was
already returning the precomposed form from earlier work.
This also updates the CMakeLists.txt rules for enabling iconv
usage because the clar tests for this code were actually not being
activated properly with the old version.
Finally, this moves git_repository_reset_filesystem from include/
git2/repository.h to include/git2/sys/repository.h since it is not
really a function that normal library users should have to think
about very often.
This cleans up some additional issues. The main change is that
on a filesystem that doesn't support mode bits, libgit2 will now
create new blobs with GIT_FILEMODE_BLOB always instead of being
at the mercy to the filesystem driver to report executable or not.
This means that if "core.filemode" lies and claims that filemode
is not supported, then we will ignore the executable bit from the
filesystem. Previously we would have allowed it.
This adds an option to the new git_repository_reset_filesystem to
recurse through submodules if desired. There may be other types
of APIs that would like a "recurse submodules" option, but this
one is particularly useful.
This also has a number of cleanups, etc., for related things
including trying to give better error messages when problems come
up from the filesystem. For example, the FAT filesystem driver on
MacOS appears to return errno EINVAL if you attempt to write a
filename with invalid UTF-8 in it. We try to capture that with a
better error message now.
When a tool needs to recreate the tree object (for example an
interface to another VCS), it needs to use the raw attributes,
forgoing any normalization.
