The old `allocfmt` is of no use to callers, as they are not able to free
the returned buffer. Export a new API that returns a static string that
doesn't need to be freed.
Fixed a few header @param and @return typos with the help of -Wdocumentation in Xcode.
The following warnings have not been fixed:
common.h:213 - Not sure how the documentation format is for '...'
notes.h:102 - Correct @param name but empty text
notes.h:111 - Correct @param name but empty text
pack.h:140 - @return missing text
pack.h:148 - @return missing text
I frequently want to the the first N digits of an OID formatted
as a string and I'd like it to be efficient. This function makes
that easy and I could rewrite the OID formatters in terms of it.
Add a new git_oid_strcmp that compares a string OID with a hex
oid for sort order, and then reimplement git_oid_streq using it.
This actually should speed up git_oid_streq because it only reads
as far into the string as it needs to, whereas previously it would
convert the whole string into an OID and then use git_oid_cmp.
This option has been sitting unimplemented for a while, so I
finally went through and implemented it along with some tests.
As part of this, I improved the implementation of
GIT_DIFF_IGNORE_SUBMODULES so it be more diligent about avoiding
extra work and about leaving off delta records for submodules to
the greatest extent possible (though it may include them still
if you are request TYPECHANGE records).
This is a big redesign of the git_submodule_status API and the
implementation of the redesigned API. It also fixes a number of
bugs that I found in other parts of the submodule API while
writing the tests for the status part.
This also fixes a couple of bugs in the iterators that had not
been noticed before - one with iterating when there is a gitlink
(i.e. separate-work-dir) and one where I was treating anything
even vaguely submodule-like as a submodule, more aggressively
than core git does.
git.git uses an inlined hashcmp function instead of memcmp, since it
performes much better when comparing hashes (most hashes compared
diverge within the first byte).

This is a major reorganization of the diff code. This changes
the diff functions to use the iterators for traversing the
content. This allowed a lot of code to be simplified. Also,
this moved the functions relating to outputting a diff into a
new file (diff_output.c).
This includes a number of other changes - adding utility
functions, extending iterators, etc. plus more tests for the
diff code. This also takes the example diff.c program much
further in terms of emulating git-diff command line options.
There were quite a few places were spaces were being used instead of
tabs. Try to catch them all. This should hopefully not break anything.
Except for `git blame`. Oh well.
1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.
A bunch of redundant methods have been removed from the external API.
- All the reference/tag creation methods with `_f` are gone. The force
flag is now passed as an argument to the normal create methods.
- All the different commit creation methods are gone; commit creation
now always requires a `git_commit` pointer for parents and a `git_tree`
pointer for tree, to ensure that corrupted commits cannot be generated.
- All the different tag creation methods are gone; tag creation now
always requires a `git_object` pointer to ensure that tags are not
created to inexisting objects.
As suggested by carlosmn, git_oid_ncmp would probably
be a better name than git_oid_match, for it does the same
as git_oid_cmp but only up to a certain amount of hex digits.
Set of methods to find the minimal-length to uniquely identify every OID
in a list. Useful for GUI applications, commit logs and so on.
Includes stress test.
