This option serves no benefit now that the git_status_list API
is available. It was of questionable value before and now it
would just be a bad idea to use it rather than the indexed API.
Files in status will, be default, be sorted according to the case
insensitivity of the filesystem that we're running on. However,
in some cases, this is not desirable. Even on case insensitive
file systems, 'git status' at the command line will generally use
a case sensitive sort (like 'ls'). Some GUIs prefer to display a
list of file case insensitively even on case-sensitive platforms.
This adds two new flags: GIT_STATUS_OPT_SORT_CASE_SENSITIVELY
and GIT_STATUS_OPT_SORT_CASE_INSENSITIVELY that will override the
default sort order of the status output and give the user control.
This includes tests for exercising these new options and makes
the examples/status.c program emulate core Git and always use a
case sensitive sort.
This commit reinstates some changes to git_diff__paired_foreach
that were discarded during the rebase (because the diff_output.c
file had gone away), and also adjusts the case insensitively
logic slightly to hopefully deal with either mismatched icase
diffs and other case insensitivity scenarios.
This is a significant reorganization of the diff code to break it
into a set of more clearly distinct files and to document the new
organization. Hopefully this will make the diff code easier to
understand and to extend.
This adds a new `git_diff_driver` object that looks of diff driver
information from the attributes and the config so that things like
function content in diff headers can be provided. The full driver
spec is not implemented in the commit - this is focused on the
reorganization of the code and putting the driver hooks in place.
This also removes a few #includes from src/repository.h that were
overbroad, but as a result required extra #includes in a variety
of places since including src/repository.h no longer results in
pulling in the whole world.
The git_status_file API was doing a hack to deal with files that
are inside ignored directories. The status scan was not reporting
any file in this case, so git_status_file would attempt a final
"stat()" call, and return IGNORED if the file actually existed.
On case-insensitive filesystems where core.ignorecase is set
incorrectly, this magic check can "succeed" and report a file
as ignored when it should actually return ENOTFOUND.
Now that we have the GIT_STATUS_OPT_RECURSE_IGNORED_DIRS, we can
use that flag to make sure that git_status_file() will look into
ignored directories and eliminate the hack completely, so we give
the correct error.
When diff encounters an untracked directory, there was a shortcut
that it took which is not compatible with core git. This makes
the default behavior no longer take that shortcut and instead look
inside the untracked directory to see if there are any untracked
files within it. If there are not, then the directory is treated
as an ignore directory instead of an untracked directory. This
has implications for the git_status APIs.
This fixes some places where the new tests were leaving the test
area in a bad state or were freeing data they should not free.
It also removes code that is extraneous to the core issue and
fixes an invalid SHA being looked up in one of the tests (which
was failing, but for the wrong reason).
This adds a helper function for the cases where you want to
quickly set a single boolean config value for a repository.
This allowed me to remove a lot of code.
The iterator APIs are not currently consistent with the parameter
ordering of the rest of the codebase. This rearranges the order
of parameters, simplifies the naming of a number of functions, and
makes somewhat better use of macros internally to clean up the
iterator code.
This also expands the test coverage of iterator functionality,
making sure that case sensitive range-limited iteration works
correctly.
In preparation for further iterator changes, this cleans up a few
small things in the iterator API:
* removed the git_iterator_for_repo_index_range API
* made git_iterator_free not be inlined
* minor param name and test function name tweaks
* Rework GIT_DIRREMOVAL values to GIT_RMDIR flags, allowing
combinations of flags
* Add GIT_RMDIR_EMPTY_PARENTS flag to remove parent dirs that
are left empty after removal
* Add GIT_MKDIR_VERIFY_DIR to give an error if item is a file,
not a dir (previously an EEXISTS error was ignored, even for
files) and enable this flag for git_futils_mkpath2file call
* Improve accuracy of error messages from git_futils_mkdir
git_index_read_tree() was exposing a parameter to provide the user with
a progress indicator. Unfortunately, due to the recursive nature of the
tree walk, the maximum number of items to process was unknown. Thus,
the indicator was only counting processed entries, without providing
any information how the number of remaining items.
This started as a complex new test for checkout going through the
"typechanges" test repository, but that revealed numerous issues
with checkout, including:
* complete failure with submodules
* failure to create blobs with exec bits
* problems when replacing a tree with a blob because the tree
"example/" sorts after the blob "example" so the delete was
being processed after the single file blob was created
This fixes most of those problems and includes a number of other
minor changes that made it easier to do that, including improving
the TYPECHANGE support in diff/status, etc.
This adds support to diff and status for running filters (a la crlf)
on blobs in the workdir before computing SHAs and before generating
text diffs. This ended up being a bit more code change than I had
thought since I had to reorganize some of the diff logic to minimize
peak memory use when filtering blobs in a diff.
This also adds a cap on the maximum size of data that will be loaded
to diff. I set it at 512Mb which should match core git. Right now
it is a #define in src/diff.h but it could be moved into the public
API if desired.
This updates all the `foreach()` type functions across the library
that take callbacks from the user to have a consistent behavior.
The rules are:
* A callback terminates the loop by returning any non-zero value
* Once the callback returns non-zero, it will not be called again
(i.e. the loop stops all iteration regardless of state)
* If the callback returns non-zero, the parent fn returns GIT_EUSER
* Although the parent returns GIT_EUSER, no error will be set in
the library and `giterr_last()` will return NULL if called.
This commit makes those changes across the library and adds tests
for most of the iteration APIs to make sure that they follow the
above rules.
This added a flag to the `git_repository_set_workdir()` function
that enables generation of a `.git` gitlink file that links the
new workdir to the parent repository. Essentially, the flag tells
the function to write out the changes to disk to permanently set
the workdir of the repository to the new path.
If you pass this flag as true, then setting the workdir to something
other than the default workdir (i.e. the parent of the .git repo
directory), will create a plain file named ".git" with the standard
gitlink contents "gitdir: <repo-path>", and also update the
"core.worktree" and "core.bare" config values.
Setting the workdir to the default repo workdir will clear the
core.worktree flag (but still permanently set core.bare to false).
BTW, the libgit2 API does not currently provide a function for
clearing the workdir and converting a non-bare repo into a bare one.
File modes were both not being ignored properly on platforms
where they should be ignored, nor be diffed consistently on
platforms where they are supported.
This change adds a number of diff and status filemode change
tests. This also makes sure that filemode-only changes are
included in the diff output when they occur and that filemode
changes are ignored successfully when core.filemode is false.
There is no code that automatically toggles core.filemode
based on the capabilities of the current platform, so the user
still needs to be careful in their .git/config file.
This fixes two bugs:
* Issue #728 where git_status_file was not working for files
that contain spaces. This was caused by reusing the "fnmatch"
parsing code from ignore and attribute files to interpret the
"pathspec" that constrained the files to apply the status to.
In that code, unescaped whitespace was considered terminal to
the pattern, so a file with internal whitespace was excluded
from the matched files. The fix was to add a mode to that code
that allows spaces and tabs inside patterns. This mode only
comes into play when parsing in-memory strings.
* The other issue was undetected, but it was in the recently
added code to reload gitattributes / gitignores when they were
changed on disk. That code was not clearing out the old values
from the cached file content before reparsing which meant that
newly added patterns would be read in, but deleted patterns
would not be removed. The fix was to clear the vector of
patterns in a cached file before reparsing the file.
Creating a workdir iterator on a directory with absolutely
no files was returning an error (GIT_ENOTFOUND) instead of
an iterator for nothing. This fixes that and includes two
new tests that cover that case.
There was a bug where tracked files inside directories that were
inside ignored directories where not being found by status. To
make that a little clearer, if you have a .gitignore with:
ignore/
And then have the following files:
ignore/dir/tracked <-- actually a tracked file
ignore/dir/untracked <-- should be ignored
Then we would show the tracked file as being removed (because
when we got the to contained item "dir/" inside the ignored
directory, we decided it was safe to skip -- bzzt, wrong!).
This update is much more careful about checking that we are
not skipping over any prefix of a tracked item, regardless of
whether it is ignored or not.
As documented in diff.c, this commit does create behavior that
still differs from core git with regards to the handling of
untracked files contained inside ignored directories. With
libgit2, those files will just not show up in status or diff.
With core git, those files don't show up in status or diff
either *unless* they are explicitly ignored by a .gitignore
pattern in which case they show up as ignored files.
Needless to say, this is a local behavior difference only, so
it should not be important and (to me) the libgit2 behavior
seems more consistent.
This makes the git attributes and git ignores cache check
stat information before using the file contents from the
cache. For cached files from the index, it checks the SHA
of the file instead. This should reduce the need to ever
call `git_attr_cache_flush()` in most situations.
This commit also fixes the `git_status_should_ignore` API
to use the libgit2 standard parameter ordering.
When a repo is first created, there is no HEAD yet and attempting
to diff files in the index was showing nothing because a tree
iterator could not be constructed. This adds an "empty" iterator
and falls back on that when the head cannot be looked up.
