There are a number of tests that modify the global or system
search paths during the tests. This adds a helper function to
make it easier to restore those paths and makes sure that they
are getting restored in a manner that preserves test isolation.
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.
* 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 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.
Any well-behaved program should write a descriptive message to the
reflog whenever it updates a reference. Let's make this more prominent
by removing the version without the reflog parameters.
