Instad of each transport having its own function and logic to get to
its refs, store them directly in transport.
Leverage the new gitno_buffer to make the parsing and storing of the
refs use common code and get rid of the git_protocol struct.
This allows us to add capabilitites to both at the same time, keeps
them in sync and removes a lot of code.
gitno_buffer now uses a callback to fill its buffer, allowing us to
use the same interface for git and http (which uses callbacks).
For the transition, http is going to keep its own logic until the
git/common code catches up with the implied multi_ack that http
has. This also has the side-effect of making the code cleaner and more
correct regardingt he protocol.
If it's not available, an error saying so will be returned when trying
to use a https:// URL.
This also unifies a lot of the network code to use git_transport in
many places instead of an socket descriptor.
gitno_connect() can return an error or socket, which is fine on most
platforms where sockets are file descriptors (signed int), but on Windows,
SOCKET is an unsigned type, which is problematic when we are trying to
test if the socket was actually a negative error code.
This fix seperates the error code and socket in gitno_connect(), and fixes
the error handling in do_connect() functions to compensate. It appears
that git_connect() and the git-transport do_connect() functions had bugs
in the non-windows cases too (leaking sockets, and not properly reporting
connection error, respectively) so I went ahead and fixed those too.
Trying to send every single line immediately won't give us any speed
improvement and duplicates the code we need for other transports. Make
the git transport use the same buffer functions as HTTP.
This changes the git_remote_download() API, but the existing one is
silly, so you don't get to complain.
The new API allows to know how much data has been downloaded, how many
objects we expect in total and how many we've processed.
This also includes droping `git_buf_lasterror` because it makes no sense
in the new system. Note that in most of the places were it has been
dropped, the code needs cleanup. I.e. GIT_ENOMEM is going away, so
instead it should return a generic `-1` and obviously not throw
anything.
This converts virtually all of the places that allocate GIT_PATH_MAX
buffers on the stack for manipulating paths to use git_buf objects
instead. The patch is pretty careful not to touch the public API
for libgit2, so there are a few places that still use GIT_PATH_MAX.
This extends and changes some details of the git_buf implementation
to add a couple of extra functions and to make error handling easier.
This includes serious alterations to all the path.c functions, and
several of the fileops.c ones, too. Also, there are a number of new
functions that parallel existing ones except that use a git_buf
instead of a stack-based buffer (such as git_config_find_global_r
that exists alongsize git_config_find_global).
This also modifies the win32 version of p_realpath to allocate whatever
buffer size is needed to accommodate the realpath instead of hardcoding
a GIT_PATH_MAX limit, but that change needs to be tested still.
