When a directory containing a .git directory (or even just a plain
gitlink) was found, libgit2 was going out of its way to treat it
specially. This seemed like it was necessary because the diff
code was not originally emulating Git's behavior for untracked
directories correctly (i.e. scanning for ignored vs untracked items
inside). Now that libgit2 diff mimics Git's untracked directory
behavior, the special handling for contained Git repos is actually
incorrect and this commit rips it out.
`git_submodule` objects were already refcounted internally in case
the submodule name was different from the path at which it was
stored. This makes that refcounting externally used as well, so
`git_submodule_lookup` and `git_submodule_add_setup` return an
object that requires a `git_submodule_free` when done.
The reflog append function was overzealous in its checking. When passed
an old and new ids, it should not do any checking, but just serialize
the data to a reflog entry.
The existing ones lack checking zeroed ids when switching back from an
unborn branch as well as what happens when detaching.
The reflog appending function mistakenly wrote zeros when dealing with a
detached HEAD. This explicitly checks for those situations and fixes
them.
When we update the current branch, we must also append to HEAD's reflog
to keep them in sync.
This is a bit of a hack, but as git.git says, it covers 100% of
default cases.
This is not something anybody would ever do; removing HEAD makes the
.git/ directory no longer be a repository, so we wouldn't be expected to
handle such a situation.
If the pqueue comparison fn returned just 0 or 1 (think "a<b")
then the sort order of returned items could be wrong because there
was a "< 0" that really needed to be "<= 0". Yikes!!!
The git_odb_exists_prefix API was not dealing correctly when a
later backend returned GIT_ENOTFOUND even if an earlier backend
had found the object.
Additionally, the unit tests were not properly exercising the API
and had a couple mistakes in checking the results.
Lastly, since the backends are not expected to behavior correctly
unless all bytes of the short id are zero except for the prefix,
this makes the ODB prefix APIs explicitly clear out the extra
bytes so the user doesn't have to be as careful.
This finds a short id string that will unambiguously select the
given object, starting with the core.abbrev length (usually 7)
and growing until it is no longer ambiguous.
This adds `git_diff_buffers` and `git_patch_from_buffers`. This
also includes a bunch of internal refactoring to increase the
shared code between these functions and the blob-to-blob and
blob-to-buffer APIs, as well as some higher level assert helpers
in the tests to also remove redundancy.
* Make GIT_INLINE an internal definition so it cannot be used in
public headers
* Fix language in CONTRIBUTING
* Make index caps API use signed instead of unsigned values
This adds an API to amend an existing commit, basically a shorthand
for creating a new commit filling in missing parameters from the
values of an existing commit. As part of this, I also added a new
"sys" API to create a commit using a callback to get the parents.
This allowed me to rewrite all the other commit creation APIs so
that temporary allocations are no longer needed.
This fixes a number of warnings with the Windows 64-bit build
including a test failure in test_repo_message__message where an
invalid pointer to a git_buf was being used.
This fixes a typo I made for setting the sorted flag on the index
after a reload. That typo didn't actually cause any test failures
so I'm also adding a test that explicitly checks that the index is
correctly sorted after a reload when ignoring case and when not.
This updates the git_pqueue to simply be a set of specialized
init/insert/pop functions on a git_vector.
To preserve the pqueue feature of having a fixed size heap, I
converted the "sorted" field in git_vectors to a more general
"flags" field so that pqueue could mix in it's own flag. This
had a bunch of ramifications because a number of places were
directly looking at the vector "sorted" field - I added a couple
new git_vector helpers (is_sorted, set_sorted) so the specific
representation of this information could be abstracted.
There were some confusing issues mixing up the number of bytes
written to the zstream output buffer with the number of bytes
consumed from the zstream input. This reorganizes the zstream
API and makes it easier to deflate an arbitrarily large input
while still using a fixed size output.
This removes the fetchRecurse compiler warnings and makes the
behavior match the other submodule options (i.e. the in-memory
setting can be reset to the on-disk value).
Writing a sample Javascript driver pointed out some extra
whitespace handling that needed to be done in the diff driver.
This adds some tests with some sample javascript code that I
pulled off of GitHub just to see what would happen. Also, to
clean up the userdiff test data, I did a "git gc" and packed
up the test objects.
This moves the expected and actual test data along with the source
data for the userdiff tests into the tests/resources/userdiff test
repo and updates the test to use that.
Reorganize the builtin driver table slightly so that core Git
builtin definitions can be imported verbatim. Then take a few of
the core Git drivers and pull them in.
This also creates a test of diffs with the builtin HTML driver
which led to some small error handling fixes in the driver
selection logic.
Don't try to determine whether the system supports file modes
when putting the tree data in the index during checkout. The tree's
mode is canonical and did not come from stat(2) in the first place.
It's hard or even impossible to correctly free the string buffer
allocated by git_patch_to_str in some circumstances. Drop the function
so people have to use git_patch_to_buf instead - git_buf has a dedicated
destructor.
