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!!!
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.
