Error messages should be sentence fragments, and therefore:
1. Should not begin with a capital letter,
2. Should not conclude with punctuation, and
3. Should not end a sentence and begin a new one
Now that `git_diff_delta` data can be produced by reading patch
file data, which may have an abbreviated oid, allow consumers to
know that the id is abbreviated.
On platforms that lack `core.symlinks`, we should not go looking for
symbolic links and `p_readlink` their target. Instead, we should
examine the file's contents.
This lets us specify in the status call which ignore rules we want to
use (optionally falling back to whatever the submodule has in its
configuration).
This removes one of the reasons for having `_set_ignore()` set the value
in-memory. We re-use the `IGNORE_RESET` value for this as it is no
longer relevant but has a similar purpose to `IGNORE_FALLBACK`.
Similarly, we remove `IGNORE_DEFAULT` which does not have use outside of
initializers and move that to fall back to the configuration as well.
As submodules are becomes more like values, we should not let a status
check to update its properties. Instead of taking a submodule, have
status take a repo and submodule name.
Introduce a new binary diff callback to provide the actual binary
delta contents to callers. Create this data from the diff contents
(instead of directly from the ODB) to support binary diffs including
the workdir, not just things coming out of the ODB.
Diff and status do not want core.safecrlf to actually raise an
error regardless of the setting, so this extends the filter API
with an additional options flags parameter and adds a flag so that
filters can be applied with GIT_FILTER_OPT_ALLOW_UNSAFE, indicating
that unsafe filter application should be downgraded from a failure
to a warning.
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.
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.
This lays groundwork for separating formatting options from diff
creation options. This groups the formatting flags separately
from the diff list creation flags and reorders the options. This
also tweaks some APIs to further separate code that uses patches
from code that just looks at git_diffs.
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 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.
The previous fix for checking file sizes with rename detection
always loads the blob. In this version, if the odb backend can
get the object header without loading the whole thing into memory,
then we'll just use that, so that we can eliminate possible rename
sources & targets without loading them.
This adds parameters to the four functions that allow for blob-to-
blob and blob-to-buffer differencing (either via callbacks or by
making a git_diff_patch object). These parameters let you say
that filename we should pretend the blob has while doing the diff.
If you pass NULL, there should be no change from the existing
behavior, which is to skip using attributes for file type checks
and just look at content. With the parameters, you can plug into
the new diff driver functionality and get binary or non-binary
behavior, plus function context regular expressions, etc.
This commit also fixes things so that the git_diff_delta that is
generated by these functions will actually be populated with the
data that we know about the blobs (or buffers) so you can use it
appropriately. It also fixes a bug in generating patches from
the git_diff_patch objects created via these functions.
Lastly, there is one other behavior change that may matter. If
there is no difference between the two blobs, these functions no
longer generate any diff callbacks / patches unless you have
passed in GIT_DIFF_INCLUDE_UNMODIFIED. This is pretty natural,
but could potentially change the behavior of existing usage.
This makes the git_diff_patch definition private to diff_patch.c
and fixes a number of other header file naming inconsistencies to
use `git_` prefixes on functions and structures that are shared
between files.
This implements the loading of regular expression pattern lists
for diff drivers that search for function context in that way.
This also changes the way that diff drivers update options and
interface with xdiff APIs to make them a little more flexible.
This is a significant reorganization of the diff code to break it
into a set of more clearly distinct files and to document the new
organization. Hopefully this will make the diff code easier to
understand and to extend.
This adds a new `git_diff_driver` object that looks of diff driver
information from the attributes and the config so that things like
function content in diff headers can be provided. The full driver
spec is not implemented in the commit - this is focused on the
reorganization of the code and putting the driver hooks in place.
This also removes a few #includes from src/repository.h that were
overbroad, but as a result required extra #includes in a variety
of places since including src/repository.h no longer results in
pulling in the whole world.
