Instead of going through the usual steps of reading a tree recursively
into an index, modifying it and writing it back out as a tree, introduce
a function to perform simple updates more efficiently.
`git_tree_create_updated` avoids reading trees which are not modified
and supports upsert and delete operations. It is not as versatile as
modifying the index, but it makes some common operations much more
efficient.
`test_commit_commit__create_initial_commit_parent_not_current` was not correctly
testing that `HEAD` was not changed. Now we grab the oid that it was pointing to
before the call to `git_commit_create` and the oid that it's pointing to afterwards
and compare those.
While no extra header fields are defined for tags, git accepts them by
ignoring them and continuing the search for the message. There are a few
tags like this in the wild which git parses just fine, so we should do
the same.
In order to match the star-star, we disable the flag that's looking for
a single path element, but that leads to searching for the pattern in
the middle of elements in the input string.
Mark when we're handing a star-star so we jump over the elements in our
attempt to match the part of the pattern that comes after the star-star.
While here, tighten up the check so we don't allow invalid rules
through.
When we're dealing with proxy addresses, we only want a hostname and
port, and the user would not provide a path, so make it optional so we
can use this same function to parse git as well as proxy URLs.
When running as root, skip the unreadable file tests, because, well,
they're probably _not_ unreadable to root unless you've got some
crazy NSA clearance-level honoring operating system shit going on.
When we turned strict object creation validation on by default, we
forgot to inform the refs::create tests of this. They, in fact,
believed that strict object creation was off by default. As a result,
their cleanup function went and turned strict object creation off for
the remaining tests.
If we cannot dwim the input, set the error message to be explicit about
that. Otherwise we leave the error for the last failed lookup, which
can be rather unexpected as it mentions a remote when the user thought
they were trying to look up a branch.
When passing -DUSE_OPENSSL:BOOL=OFF to cmake the testsuite will
fail with the following error:
core::stream::register_tls [/tmp/libgit2/tests/core/stream.c:40]
Function call failed: (error)
error -1 - <no message>
Fix test to assume failure for tls when built without openssl.
While at it also fix GIT_WIN32 cpp to check if it's defined
or not.
Allow callers to specify a start path with a trailing slash to match
a submodule, instead of just a directory. This is for some legacy
behavior that's sort of dumb, but there it is.
If we're looking for a symlink, realpath will give us the resolved path,
which is not what we're after, but a canonicalized version of the path
the user asked for.
