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.
Now that #1785 is merged, git_odb_stream_finalize_write() calculates the object id before invoking the odb backend.
This commit gives a chance to the backend to check if it already knows this object.
Previously, `git_object_read()`, `git_object_read_prefix()` and
`git_object_exists()` were implementing an auto refresh logic. When the
expected object couldn't be found in any backend, a call to
`git_odb_refresh()` was triggered and the lookup was once again performed
against all backends.
This commit removes this auto-refresh logic from the odb layer and pushes
it down into the pack-backend (as it's the only one currently exposing
a `refresh()` endpoint).
Ensure that we apply splits to rewrites, even if we're not
interested in examining it closely for rename/copy detection.
In keeping with core git, status should not display rewrites,
it should simply show files as "modified".
Report the index being locked with its own error code in order to be
able to differentiate, as a locked index is typically the result of a
crashed process or concurrent access, both of which often require user
intervention to fix.
Clarify the role of each function and in particular mention that there
is no need for the backend or stream to worry about the object's id,
as it will be given when `finalize_write` is called.
The frontend is in charge of calculating the id of the objects. Thus
the backends should treat it as a read-only value. The positioning in
the function signature made it seem as though it was an output
parameter.
Make the id const and move it from the front to behind the subject
(backend or stream).
Hash the data as it's coming into the stream and tell the backend what
its name is when finalizing the write. This makes it consistent with
the way a plain git_odb_write() performs the write.
This is in preparation for moving the hashing to the frontend, which
requires us to handle the incoming data before passing it to the
backend's stream.
Key-based authentication also needs an username, so include it in each
one.
Also stop assuming a default username of "git" in the ssh transport
which has no business making such a decision.
new functions in struct git_config_backend:
* iterator_new(...)
* iterator_free(...)
* next(...)
The old callback based foreach style can still be used with `git_config_backend_foreach_match`
The test coverage for ambiguous OIDs was pretty thin. This adds
a bunch of new objects both in packs, across packs, and loose that
match to 8 characters so that we can test various cases of
ambiguous lookups.
In git_diff_paired_foreach, temporarily resort the
index->workdir diff list by index path so that we can
track a rename in the workdir from head->index->workdir.
This restores the usage of GIT_DIFF_LINE_BINARY for the diff
output line that reads "Binary files x and y differ" so that it
can be optionally colorized independently of the file header.
This allows git_diff_patch_size to account for hunk headers and
file headers in the returned size. This required some refactoring
of the code that is used to print file headers so that it could be
invoked by the git_diff_patch_size API.
Also this increases the test coverage and fixes an off-by-one bug
in the size calculation when newline changes happen at the end of
the file.
The description of what the function does hasn't been true for quite a
while. Change it to reflect the way it currently works.
While here, remove an even older comment about missing features that
have been implemented.
