Depending on the operation, we need to consider gitattributes
in both the work dir and the index. This adds a parameter to
all of the gitattributes related functions that allows user
control of attribute reading behavior (i.e. prefer workdir,
prefer index, only use index).
This fix also covers allowing us to check attributes (and
hence do diff and status) on bare repositories.
This was a somewhat larger change that I hoped because it had
to change the cache key used for gitattributes files.
We were not following the git behavior for leading slashes
in path names when matching git ignores and git attribute
file patterns. This should fix issue #638.
This updates khash.h with some extra features (like error checking
on allocations, ability to use wrapped malloc, foreach calls, etc),
creates two high-level wrappers around khash: `git_khash_str` and
`git_khash_oid` for string-to-void-ptr and oid-to-void-ptr tables,
then converts all of the old usage of `git_hashtable` over to use
these new hashtables.
For `git_khash_str`, I've tried to create a set of macros that
yield an API not too unlike the old `git_hashtable` API. Since
the oid hashtable is only used in one file, I haven't bother to
set up all those macros and just use the khash APIs directly for
now.
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.
The point of having `GIT_ATTR_TRUE` and `GIT_ATTR_FALSE` macros is to be
able to change the way that true and false values are stored inside of
the returned gitattributes value pointer.
However, if these macros are implemented as a simple rename for the
`git_attr__true` pointer, they will always be used with the `==`
operator, and hence we cannot really change the implementation to any
other way that doesn't imply using special pointer values and comparing
them!
We need to do the same thing that core Git does, which is using a
function macro. With `GIT_ATTR_TRUE(attr)`, we can change
internally the way that these values are stored to anything we want.
This commit does that, and rewrites a large chunk of the attributes test
suite to remove duplicated code for expected attributes, and to
properly test the function macro behavior instead of comparing
pointers.
This makes so much sense that I can't believe it hasn't been done
before. Kill the old `git_fbuffer` and read files straight into
`git_buf` objects.
Also: In order to fully support 4GB files in 32-bit systems, the
`git_buf` implementation has been changed from using `ssize_t` for
storage and storing negative values on allocation failure, to using
`size_t` and changing the buffer pointer to a magical pointer on
allocation failure.
Hopefully this won't break anything.
Now that is_dir is calculated correctly for attr/ignore paths,
it is possible to use it so that ignoring "dir/" will properly
match the directory name and ignore the entire directory.
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.
This takes all of the functions that look up simple data about
paths (such as `git_futils_isdir`) and moves them over to path.h
(becoming `git_path_isdir`). This leaves fileops.h just with
functions that actually manipulate the filesystem or look at
the file contents in some way.
As part of this, the dir.h header which is really just for win32
support was moved into win32 (with some minor changes).
Going back over this, the git__removechar function was not
needed (only invoked once) and is actually mislabeled. As
implemented, it really only made sense for removing backslash
characters, since two of the "removed" characters in a row
would include the second one -- i.e. it really implements
stripping backslash-escaped strings where a backslash allows
internal whitespace in a word.
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.
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).
This updates to implementation of gitattribute macros to be much more
similar to core git (albeit not 100%) and to handle expansion of
macros within macros, etc. It also cleans up the refcounting usage
with macros to be much cleaner.
Also, this adds a new vector function `git_vector_insert_sorted()`
which allows you to maintain a sorted list as you go. In order to
write that function, this changes the function `git__bsearch()` to
take a somewhat different set of parameters, although the core
functionality is still the same.
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.
