This fix makes libgit2 capable of parsing annotated tag objects that lack
the optional message/description field.
Previously, libgit2 treated this field as mandatory and raised a tag_error on
such tags. However, the message field is optional.
An example of such a tag is refs/tags/v2.6.16.31-rc1 in Linux:
$ git cat-file tag refs/tags/v2.6.16.31-rc1
object afaa018cefb6af63befef1df7d8febaae904434f
type commit
tag v2.6.16.31-rc1

Since quite a while now, git_branch_foreach has learnt to list branches
without the 'refs/heads/' or 'refs/remotes' prefixes.
This patch teaches git_tag_list to do the same for listing tags.
This expands the types of peeling that `git_object_peel` knows
how to do to include TAG -> BLOB peeling, and makes the errors
slightly more consistent depending on the situation. It also
adds a new special behavior where peeling to ANY will peel until
the object type changes (e.g. chases TAGs to a non-TAG).
Using this expanded peeling, this replaces peeling code that was
embedded in `git_tag_peel` and `git_reset`.
git_commit() and git_tag() no longer prettify the
message by default. This has to be taken care of
by the caller.
This has the nice side effect of putting the
caller in position to actually choose to strip
the comments or not.
'git commit' and 'git tag -a' enforce some conventions, like cleaning up excess whitespace and making sure that the last line ends with a '\n'. This fix replicates this behavior.

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.
The ownership semantics have been changed all over the library to be
consistent. There are no more "borrowed" or duplicated references.
Main changes:
- `git_repository_open2` and `3` have been dropped.
- Added setters and getters to hotswap all the repository owned
objects:
`git_repository_index`
`git_repository_set_index`
`git_repository_odb`
`git_repository_set_odb`
`git_repository_config`
`git_repository_set_config`
`git_repository_workdir`
`git_repository_set_workdir`
Now working directories/index files/ODBs and so on can be
hot-swapped after creating a repository and between operations.
- All these objects now have proper ownership semantics with
refcounting: they all require freeing after they are no longer
needed (the repository always keeps its internal reference).
- Repository open and initialization has been updated to keep in
mind the configuration files. Bare repositories are now always
detected, and a default config file is created on init.
- All the tests affected by these changes have been dropped from the
old test suite and ported to the new one.
The v0.99 tag in the Git repo triggers this behavior:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=git/git.git;a=tag;h=d6602ec5194c87b0fc87103ca4d67251c76f233a
Ideally, we'd allow the tag to be instantiated even though the tagger
field is missing, but this at the very least prevents libgit2 from
crashing.
To test this bug, a new repository has been added based on the test
branch in testrepo.git. It contains a "e90810b" tag that looks like
this:
object e90810b8df3e80c413d903f631643c716887138d
type commit
tag e90810b
This is a very simple tag.
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 direct-writes commit left some (slow) internals methods that
were no longer needed. These have been removed.
Also, the Reflog code was using the old `git_signature__write`, so
it has been rewritten to use a normal buffer and the new `writebuf`
signature writer. It's now slightly simpler and faster.
DIRECT WRITES ARE BACK AND FASTER THAN EVER. The streaming writer to the
ODB was an overkill for the smaller objects like Commit and Tags; most
of the streaming logic was taking too long.
This commit makes Commits, Tags and Trees to be built-up in memory, and
then written to disk in 2 pushes (header + data), instead of streaming
everything.
This is *always* faster, even for big files (since the git_filebuf class
still does streaming writes when the memory cache overflows). This is
also a gazillion lines of code smaller, because we don't have to
precompute the final size of the object before starting the stream (this
was kind of defeating the point of streaming, anyway).
Blobs are still written with full streaming instead of loading them in
memory, since this is still the fastest way.
A new `git_buf` class has been added. It's missing some features, but
it'll get there.
Cleaned up the structure of the whole OS-abstraction layer.
fileops.c now contains a set of utility methods for file management used
by the library. These are abstractions on top of the original POSIX
calls.
There's a new file called `posix.c` that contains
emulations/reimplementations of all the POSIX calls the library uses.
These are prefixed with `p_`. There's a specific posix file for each
platform (win32 and unix).
All the path-related methods have been moved from `utils.c` to `path.c`
and have their own prefix.
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.
Before this commit, malformed tag and signature were considered as
valid by the parser. See the test t3800-mktag.sh of git to see example
of malformed tag and signature.
