For update and create commands where all the objects are known to
exist in the remote, we must send an empty packfile. However, if all
we issue are delete commands, no packfile must be sent.
Take this into consideration for push.
This makes diff use the cvar cache for config options where
possible, and also adds support for a number of other config
options to diff including "diff.context", "diff.ignoreSubmodules",
"diff.noprefix", "diff.mnemonicprefix", and "core.abbrev".
To make this natural, this involved a rearrangement of the code
that allocates the diff object vs. the code that initializes it
based on the combination of options passed in by the user and
read from the config.
This commit includes tests for most of these new options as well.
This converts many of the config lookups that are done around the
library to use the repository config cache. This was everything I
could find that wasn't part of diff (which requires a larger fix).
This adds a bunch of additional config values to the repository
config value cache and makes it easier to add a simple boolean
config without creating enum values for each possible setting.
Also, this fixes a bug in git_config_refresh where the config
cache was not being cleared which could lead to potential
incorrect values.
The work to start using the new cached configs will come in the
next couple of commits...
When case insensitive tree iterators were added, we started reading
the case sensitivity of the index to decide if the tree should be
case sensitive. This is good for index-to-tree comparisons, but
for tree-to-tree comparisons, we should really default to doing a
case sensitive comparison unless the user really wants otherwise.
Rename git_packfile_check to git_packfile_alloc since it is now
being used more in that capacity. Fix the various places that use
it. Consolidate some repeated code in odb_pack.c related to the
allocation of a new pack_backend.
The indexer was creating a packfile object separately from the
code in pack.c which was a problem since I put a call to
git_mutex_init into just pack.c. This commit updates the pack
function for creating a new pack object (i.e. git_packfile_check())
so that it can be used in both places and then makes indexer.c
use the shared initialization routine.
There are also a few minor formatting and warning message fixes.
This removes the lock from the repository object and changes the
internals to use the new atomic git__compare_and_swap to update
the _odb, _config, _index, and _refdb variables in a threadsafe
manner.
