This describes their purpose better, as we now initialize ssl and some
other global stuff in there. Calling the init function is not something
which has been optional for a while now.
git hardocodes these as objects which exist regardless of whether they
are in the odb and uses them in the shell interface as a way of
expressing the lack of a blob or tree for one side of e.g. a diff.
In the library we use each language's natural way of declaring a lack of
value which makes a workaround like this unnecessary. Since git uses it,
it does however mean each shell application would need to perform this
check themselves.
This makes it common work across a range of applications and an issue
with compatibility with git, which fits right into what the library aims
to provide.
Thus we introduce the hard-coded empty blob and tree in the odb
frontend. These hard-coded objects are checked for before going to the
backends, but after the cache check, which means the second time they're
used, they will be treated as normal cached objects instead of creating
new ones.
If the remote is anonymous, then we cannot check for any configuration,
as there is no name. Check for this before we try to use the name, which
may be a NULL pointer.
This fixes#2697.
This function has one output but can match multiple files, which can be
unexpected for the user, which would usually path the exact path of the
file he wants the status of.
We cannot know from looking at .gitmodules whether a directory is a
submodule or not. We need the index or tree we are comparing against to
tell us. Otherwise we have to assume the entry in .gitmodules is stale
or otherwise invalid.
Thus we pass the index of the repository into the workdir iterator, even
if we do not want to compare against it. This follows what git does,
which even for `git diff <tree>`, it will consider staged submodules as
such.
We consider an entry in .gitmodules to mean that we have a submodule at
a particular path, even if HEAD^{tree} and the index do not contain any
reference to it.
We should ignore that submodule entry and simply consider that path to
be a regular directory.
We currently consider CR to start the end of the line, but that means
that we miss cases with CR CR LF which can be used with git to match
files whose names have CR at the end of their names.
The fix from the patch comes from Russell's comment in the issue.
This fixes#2536.
* Error-handling is cleaned up to only let a file-not-found error
through, not other sorts of errors. And when a file-not-found
error happens, we clean up the error.
* Test now checks that file-not-found introduces no error. And
other minor cleanups.
An anonymous remote wouldn't create remote-tracking branches, so testing
we don't create them for TAGS_ALL is nonsensical. Furthermore, the name
of the supposed remote-tracking branch was also not one which would have
been created had it had a name.
Give the remote a name and test that we only create the tags when we
pass TAGS_ALL and that we do create the remote-branch branch when given
TAGS_AUTO.
When we update FETCH_HEAD we check whether the remote is the current
branch's upstream remote. The code does not check whether the current
refspec is relevant for this reference but always tries to perform the
reverse transformation, which causes it to error out if the refspec
doesn't match the reference.
Thanks to Pierre-Olivier Latour for the reproduction recipe.
For example, if you have
[include]
path = foo
and foo didn't exist, git_config_open_ondisk() would just give up
on the rest of the file. Now it ignores the unresolved include
without error and continues reading the rest of the file.
Already cherry-picked commits should not be re-included. If all changes
included in a commit exist in the upstream, then we should error with
GIT_EAPPLIED.
`git_rebase_next` will apply the next patch (or cherry-pick)
operation, leaving the results checked out in the index / working
directory so that consumers can resolve any conflicts, as appropriate.
