This adds an option to checkout a la the diff option to turn off
fnmatch evaluation for pathspec entries. This can be useful to
make sure your "pattern" in really interpretted as an exact file
match only.
All the ODB backends have a specific refresh interface. When reading an
object, first we attempt every single backend: if the read fails, then
we refresh all the backends and retry the read one more time to see if
the object has appeared.
It is not legal inside our `p_mmap` function to mmap a zero length
file. This adds a test that exercises that case inside diff and
fixes the code path where we would try to do that.
The fix turns out not to be a lot of code since our default file
content is already initialized to "" which works in this case.
Fixes#1210
This moves the implementation of these two APIs into common code
that will be shared between the two. Also, this adds tests for
the `git_diff_blob_to_buffer` API. Lastly, this adds some extra
`const` to a few places that can use it.
Before this, we error out from `reference_matches_remote_head` if the
reference we're searching for does not exist.
Since we explicitly check if master is existing in `update_head_to_remote`
and error out if it doesn't, a repository without master branch could
not be cloned.
In fact this was later clobbered by what is fixed in #1194.
However, this patch introduces a `found` member in `head_info` and sets
it accordingly. That also saves us from checking the string length of
`branchname` a few times.
As a function that appears to only be called on error paths, I don't
think it makes sense for it to return an error, or clobber the global
giterr. Note that no existing callsites actually check the return
code.
In my own application, there are errors where the real error ends
up being hidden, as git_mwindow_file_deregister() clobbers the
global giterr. I'm not sure this error is even relevant?
I saw a repo in the wild today which had a master branch ref which was packed, but had no trailing newline. Git handled it fine, but libgit2 choked on it. Fix seems simple enough. If we don't see a newline, assume the end of the buffer is the end of the ref line.
There are a couple of checkout bugs fixed here. One is with
untracked working directory entries that are prefixes of tree
entries but not in a meaningful way (i.e. "read" is a prefix of
"readme.txt" but doesn't interfere in any way). The second bug
is actually a redo of 07edfa0fc640f85f95507c3101e77accd7d2bf0d
where directory entries in the index that are not in the diff
were not being removed correctly. That fix remedied one case
but broke another.
When checking out with the GIT_CHECKOUT_REMOVE_UNTRACKED option
and there was an entire tree in the working directory and in the
index that is not in the baseline nor target commit, the tree was
correctly(?) removed from the working directory but was not
successfully removed from the index. This fixes that and adds a
test of the functionality.
This moves a lot of the detailed checkout documentation into a new
file (docs/checkout-internals.md) and simplifies the public docs
for the checkout API.
There were a bunch of small bugs in the checkout code where I was
assuming that a typechange was always from a tree to a blob or
vice versa. This fixes up most of those cases. Also, there were
circumstances where the submodule definitions were changed by the
checkout and the submodule data was not getting reloaded properly
before the new submodules were checked out.
The notifications were broken from the various iterations over
this code and were not returning working dir item data correctly.
Also, workdir items that were alphabetically after the last item
in diff were not being processed.
The spoolandsort iterator changes got sort-of cherry picked out of
this branch and so I dropped the commit when rebasing; however,
there were a few small changes that got dropped as well (since the
version merged upstream wasn't quite the same as what I dropped).
This adds a new API to the submodule interface that just returns
where information about the submodule was found (e.g. config file
only or in the HEAD, index, or working directory).
Also, the old "refresh" call was potentially keeping some stale
submodule data around, so this simplfies that code and literally
discards the old cache, then reallocates.
Stash was sometimes obscuring the actual error code, replacing it
with a -1 when there was more descriptive value. This updates
stash to preserve the original error code more reliably along
with a variety of other error handling tweaks.
I believe this is an improvement, but arguably, preserving the
underlying error code may result in values that are harder to
interpret by the caller who does not understand the internals.
Discussion is welcome!
Previously a NULL oid was handled like an empty buffer and
returned a status empty string. This makes git_oid_tostr()
set the output buffer to the empty string instead.
Make checkout update entries in the index for all files that are
updated and/or removed, unless flag GIT_CHECKOUT_DONT_UPDATE_INDEX
is given. To do this, iterators were extended to allow a little
more introspection into the index being iterated over, etc.
This flips checkout back to be driven off the changes between
the baseline and the target trees. This reinstates the complex
code for tracking the contents of the working directory, but
overall, I think the resulting logic is easier to follow.
I've tried to map out the detailed behaviors of checkout and make
sure that we're handling the various cases correctly, along with
providing options to allow us to emulate "git checkout" and "git
checkout-index" with the various flags. I've thrown away flags
in the checkout API that seemed like clutter and added some new
ones. Also, I've converted the conflict callback to a general
notification callback so we can emulate "git checkout" output and
display "dirty" files.
As of this commit, the new behavior is not working 100% but some
of that is probably baked into tests that are not testing the
right thing. This is a decent snapshot point, I think, along the
way to getting the update done.
This corrects the order of operations in git reset so that the
checkout to reset the working directory content is done before
the HEAD is moved. This allows us to use the HEAD and the index
content to know what files can / should safely be reset.
Unfortunately, there are still some cases where the behavior of
this revision differs from core git. Notable, a file which has
been added to the index but is not present in the HEAD is
considered to be tracked by core git (and thus removable by a
reset command) whereas since this loads the target state into
the index prior to resetting, it will consider such a file to be
untracked and won't touch it. That is a larger fix that I'll
defer to a future commit.
