This cleans up some places I missed that could hold onto submodule
references and cleans up the way in which the repository cache is
both reloaded and released so that existing submodule references
aren't destroyed inappropriately.
`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 checkout code used to defer removal of "blocking" files in
checkouts until the blocked item was actually being written (since
we have already checked that the removing the block is acceptable
according to the update rules). Unfortunately, this resulted in
an intermediate index state where both the blocking and new items
were in the index which is no longer allowed. Now we just remove
the blocking item in the first pass so it never needs to coexist.
In cases where there are typechanges, this could result in a bit
more churn of removing and recreating intermediate directories,
but I'm going to assume that is an unusual case and the churn will
not be too costly.
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.
The default merge_file level was XDL_MERGE_MINIMAL, which will
produce conflicts where there should not be in the case where
both sides were changed identically. Change the defaults to be
more aggressive (XDL_MERGE_ZEALOUS) which will more aggressively
compress non-conflicts. This matches git.git's defaults.
Increase testing around reverting a previously reverted commit to
illustrate this problem.
This renames git_vector_free_all to the better git_vector_free_deep
and also contains a couple of memory leak fixes based on valgrind
checks. The fixes are specifically: failure to free global dir
path variables when not compiled with threading on and failure to
free filters from the filter registry that had not be initialized
fully.
The checkout notify callback behavior on non-zero return values
was not being tested. This adds tests, fixes a bug with positive
values, and clarifies the documentation to make it clear that the
checkout can be canceled via this mechanism.
This changes the behavior of callbacks so that the callback error
code is not converted into GIT_EUSER and instead we propagate the
return value through to the caller. Instead of using the
giterr_capture and giterr_restore functions, we now rely on all
functions to pass back the return value from a callback.
To avoid having a return value with no error message, the user
can call the public giterr_set_str or some such function to set
an error message. There is a new helper 'giterr_set_callback'
that functions can invoke after making a callback which ensures
that some error message was set in case the callback did not set
one.
In places where the sign of the callback return value is
meaningful (e.g. positive to skip, negative to abort), only the
negative values are returned back to the caller, obviously, since
the other values allow for continuing the loop.
The hardest parts of this were in the checkout code where positive
return values were overloaded as meaningful values for checkout.
I fixed this by adding an output parameter to many of the internal
checkout functions and removing the overload. This added some
code, but it is probably a better implementation.
There is some funkiness in the network code where user provided
callbacks could be returning a positive or a negative value and
we want to rely on that to cancel the loop. There are still a
couple places where an user error might get turned into GIT_EUSER
there, I think, though none exercised by the tests.
There are a lot of places that we call git__free on each item in
a vector and then call git_vector_free on the vector itself. This
just wraps that up into one convenient helper function.
This adds giterr_user_cancel to return GIT_EUSER and clear any
error message that is sitting around. As a result of using that
in places, we need to be more thorough with capturing errors that
happen inside a callback when used internally. To help with that,
this also adds giterr_capture and giterr_restore so that when we
internally use a foreach-type function that clears errors and
converts them to GIT_EUSER, it is easier to restore not just the
return value, but the actual error message text.
The last commit taught git_checkout_tree to actually do something
meaningfull, when treeish was NULL. This lets us rewrite
git_checkout_head to simply call git_checkout_tree without giving it a
treeish.
In git_checkout_tree, the first check tests if either repo or treeish is
NULL and says that eithor of them has to have a valid value. But there
is no code to handle the treeish == NULL case.
So, do something meaningful in that case: use HEAD instead.
This changes `git_index_read` to have two modes - a hard index
reload that always resets the index to match the on-disk data
(which was the old behavior) and a soft index reload that uses
the timestamp / file size information and only replaces the index
data if the file on disk has been modified.
This then updates the git_status code to do a soft reload unless
the new GIT_STATUS_OPT_NO_REFRESH flag is passed in.
This also changes the behavior of the git_diff functions that use
the index so that when an index is not explicitly passed in (i.e.
when the functions call git_repository_index for you), they will
also do a soft reload for you.
This intentionally breaks the file signature of git_index_read
because there has been some confusion about the behavior previously
and it seems like all existing uses of the API should probably be
examined to select the desired behavior.
Move conflict handling into two steps: load the conflicts and
then apply the conflicts. This is more compatible with the
existing checkout implementation and makes progress reporting
more sane.
This makes no functional change to diff but renames a couple of
the objects and splits the new git_patch (formerly git_diff_patch)
into a new header file.
This cleans up some additional issues. The main change is that
on a filesystem that doesn't support mode bits, libgit2 will now
create new blobs with GIT_FILEMODE_BLOB always instead of being
at the mercy to the filesystem driver to report executable or not.
This means that if "core.filemode" lies and claims that filemode
is not supported, then we will ignore the executable bit from the
filesystem. Previously we would have allowed it.
This adds an option to the new git_repository_reset_filesystem to
recurse through submodules if desired. There may be other types
of APIs that would like a "recurse submodules" option, but this
one is particularly useful.
This also has a number of cleanups, etc., for related things
including trying to give better error messages when problems come
up from the filesystem. For example, the FAT filesystem driver on
MacOS appears to return errno EINVAL if you attempt to write a
filename with invalid UTF-8 in it. We try to capture that with a
better error message now.
Checkout should not reject binary files from filters, as a filter
may actually wish to operate on binary files. The CRLF filter should
reject binary files itself if it wishes to. Moreover, the CRLF
filter requires this logic so that users can emulate the checkout
data in their odb -> workdir filtering.

This makes the git_buf struct that was used internally into an
externally available structure and eliminates the git_buffer.
As part of that, some of the special cases that arose with the
externally used git_buffer were blended into the git_buf, such as
being careful about git_buf objects that may have a NULL ptr and
allowing for bufs with a valid ptr and size but zero asize as a
way of referring to externally owned data.
This adds the ident filter (that knows how to replace $Id$) and
tweaks the filter APIs and code so that git_filter_source objects
actually have the updated OID of the object being filtered when
it is a known value.
This moves the git_filter_list into the public API so that users
can create, apply, and dispose of filter lists. This allows more
granular application of filters to user data outside of libgit2
internals.
This also converts all the internal usage of filters to the public
APIs along with a few small tweaks to make it easier to use the
public git_buffer stuff alongside the internal git_buf.
This creates include/sys/filter.h with a basic definition of a
git_filter and then converts the internal code to use it. There
are related internal objects (git_filter_list) that we will want
to publish at some point, but this is a first step.
Unfortunately git-core uses the term "unborn branch" and "orphan
branch" interchangeably. However, "orphan" is only really there for
the checkout command, which has the `--orphan` option so it doesn't
actually create the branch.
Branches never have parents, so the distinction of a branch with no
parents is odd to begin with. Crucially, the error messages deal with
unborn branches, so let's use that.
This adds some more macros for some standard operations on file
modes, particularly related to permissions, and then updates a
number of places around the code base to use the new macros.
This adds a new public API for compiling pathspecs and matching
them against the working directory, the index, or a tree from the
repository. This also reworks the pathspec internals to allow the
sharing of code between the existing internal usage of pathspec
matching and the new external API.
While this is working and the new API is ready for discussion, I
think there is still an incorrect behavior in which patterns are
always matched against the full path of an entry without taking
the subdirectories into account (so "s*" will match "subdir/file"
even though it wouldn't with core Git). Further enhancements are
coming, but this was a good place to take a functional snapshot.
