The way we currently do it depends on the subtlety of strlen vs sizeof
and the fact that .pack is one longer than .idx. Let's use a git_buf so
we can express the manipulation we want much more clearly.
`merge_diff_list_count_candidates()` takes pointers to the source and
target counts, but when it comes time to increase them, we're increasing
the pointer, rather than the value it's pointing to.
Dereference the value to increase.
Coverity complains about the git_rawobj ones because we use a loop in
which we keep remembering the old version, and we end up copying our
object as the base, so we want to have the data pointer be NULL.
Let `ssh_stream_free()` take a NULL stream, as free functions should,
and remove the check from the connection setup.
The connection setup would not need the check anyhow, as we always have
a stream by the time we reach this code.
When the callback returns an error, we should stop immediately. This
broke when trying to make sure we pass specific errors up the chain.
This broke cancelling out of the loose backend's foreach.
We've been using `p_ftruncate()` to extend the packfile in order to mmap
it and write the new data into it. This works well in the general case,
but as truncation does not allocate space in the filesystem, it must do
so when we write data to it.
The only way the OS has to indicate a failure to allocate space is via
SIGBUS which means we tried to write outside the file. This will cause
everyone to crash as they don't expect to handle this signal.
Switch to using `p_lseek()` and `p_write()` to extend the file in a way
which tells the filesystem to allocate the space for the missing
data. We can then be sure that we have space to write into.
We use heuristics to make a decent guess at when we can save time and
space by linking object files during a clone. Unfortunately checking the
device id isn't enough, as those would be the same during e.g. a bind-mount,
but the OS still does not allow us to link between mounts of the same
filesystem.
If we fail to perform the links, fall back to copying the contents into
a new file as a last attempt.
A remote's URLs are now modified according to the url.*.insteadOf
and url.*.pushInsteadOf configurations. This allows a user to
replace URL prefixes by setting the corresponding keys. E.g.
"url.foo.insteadOf = bar" would replace the prefix "bar" with the
new prefix "foo".
Some brain damaged tolower() implementations appear to want to
take the locale into account, and this may require taking some
insanely aggressive lock on the locale and slowing down what should
be the most trivial of trivial calls for people who just want to
downcase ASCII.
Treat input bytes as unsigned before doing arithmetic on them,
lest we look at some non-ASCII byte (like a UTF-8 character) as a
negative value and perform the comparison incorrectly.
We do not error on "merge conflicts"; on the contrary, merge conflicts
are a normal part of merging. We only error on "checkout conflicts",
where a change exists in the index or the working directory that would
otherwise be overwritten by performing the checkout.
This *may* happen during merge (after the production of the new index
that we're going to checkout) but it could happen during any checkout.
If there exists a conflict in the index, but no file in the working
directory, this implies that the user wants to accept the resolution
by removing the file. Thus, remove the conflict entry from the
index, instead of trying to add a (nonexistent) file.
Mark the `old_file` and `new_file` sides of a delta with a new bit,
`GIT_DIFF_FLAG_EXISTS`, that introduces that a particular side of
the delta exists in the diff.
This is useful for indicating whether a working directory item exists
or not, in the presence of a conflict. Diff users may have previously
used DELETED to determine this information.
When confronted with a conflict in the index, `git_index_add_all`
should stage the working directory copy. If there is no file in the
working directory, the conflict should simply be removed.
It's not always obvious the mapping between stage level and
conflict-ness. More importantly, this can lead otherwise sane
people to write constructs like `if (!git_index_entry_stage(entry))`,
which (while technically correct) is unreadable.
Provide a nice method to help avoid such messy thinking.
Since a diff entry only concerns a single entry, zero the information
for the index side of a conflict. (The index entry would otherwise
erroneously include the lowest-stage index entry - generally the
ancestor of a conflict.)
Test that during status, the index side of the conflict is empty.
When diffing against an index, return a new `GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED`
delta type for items that are conflicted. For a single file path,
only one delta will be produced (despite the fact that there are
multiple entries in the index).
Index iterators now have the (optional) ability to return conflicts
in the index. Prior to this change, they would be omitted, and callers
(like diff) would omit conflicted index entries entirely.
