* Make GIT_INLINE an internal definition so it cannot be used in
public headers
* Fix language in CONTRIBUTING
* Make index caps API use signed instead of unsigned values
This adds docs for the cache control options to git_libgit2_opts
and also tweaks the cache code so that if the cache is disabled,
then the next time we attempt to insert something into the cache
in question, we will actually clear any old cached objects.
Currently, the odb cache has a fixed size of 128 slots as defined by
GIT_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE. Allow users to set the size of the cache via
git_libgit2_opts().
Fixes#1035.
This switches the APIs for setting and getting the global/system
search paths from using git_strarray to using a simple string with
GIT_PATH_LIST_SEPARATOR delimited paths, just as the environment
PATH variable would contain. This makes it simpler to get and set
the value.
I also added code to expand "$PATH" when setting a new value to
embed the old value of the path. This means that I no longer
require separate actions to PREPEND to the value.
The goal of this work is to expose the search logic for "global",
"system", and "xdg" files through the git_libgit2_opts() interface.
Behind the scenes, I changed the logic for finding files to have a
notion of a git_strarray that represents a search path and to store
a separate search path for each of the three tiers of config file.
For each tier, I implemented a function to initialize it to default
values (generally based on environment variables), and then general
interfaces to get it, set it, reset it, and prepend new directories
to it.
Next, I exposed these interfaces through the git_libgit2_opts
interface, reusing the GIT_CONFIG_LEVEL_SYSTEM, etc., constants
for the user to control which search path they were modifying.
There are alternative designs for the opts interface / argument
ordering, so I'm putting this phase out for discussion.
Additionally, I ended up doing a little bit of clean up regarding
attr.h and attr_file.h, adding a new attrcache.h so the other two
files wouldn't have to be included in so many places.
Building a "shared object" (DLL) in Windows includes 2 steps:
- specify __declspec(dllexport)
when building the library itself. MSVC will disallow itself from
optimizing these symbols out and reference them in the PE's
Exports-Table.
Further, a static link library will be generated. This library
contains the symbols which are exported via the declsepc above.
The __declspec(dllexport) becomes part of the symbol-signature
(like parameter types in C++ are 'mangled' into the symbol name,
the export specifier is mingled with the name)
- specify __declspec(dllimport)
when using the library. This again mingles the declspec into the
name and declares the function / variable with external linkage.
cmake automatically adds -Dgit2_EXPORTS to the compiler arguments
when compiling the libgit2 project.
The 'git2' is the name specified via PROJECT() in CMakeLists.txt.
This adds preliminary support for pathspecs to diff and status.
The implementation is not very optimized (it still looks at
every single file and evaluated the the pathspec match against
them), but it works.
See `global.c` for a description of what we're doing.
When libgit2 is built with GIT_THREADS support, the threading system
must be explicitly initialized with `git_threads_init()`.
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.
The GIT_EXPORT macro is used to declare a function to be externally
accessible to other libraries. This commit uses GIT_EXPORT to declare
the git_lasterror() function as externally exported. I verified with
depends.exe that the function is available to external callers (i.e.
in the exports table of the PE file).
