We take in a possibly partial ID by taking a length and working off of
that to figure out whether to just look up the object or ask the
backends for a prefix lookup.
Unfortunately we've been checking the size against `GIT_OID_HEXSZ` which
is the size of a *string* containing a full ID, whereas we need to check
against the size we can have when it's a 20-byte array.
Change the checks and comment to use `GIT_OID_RAWSZ` which is the
correct size of a git_oid to have when full.
There are some combination of objects and target types which we know
cannot be fulfilled. Return EINVALIDSPEC for those to signify that there
is a mismatch in the user-provided data and what the object model is
capable of satisfying.
If we start at a tag and in the course of peeling find out that we
cannot reach a particular type, we return EPEEL.
The brace in the check for peel's return was surrounding the wrong
thing, which made 'error' be set to 1 when there was an error instead of
the error code.
This finds a short id string that will unambiguously select the
given object, starting with the core.abbrev length (usually 7)
and growing until it is no longer ambiguous.
This adds create and free callback to the git_objects_table so
that more of the creation and destruction of objects can be table
driven instead of using switch statements. This also makes the
semantics of certain object creation functions consistent so that
we can make better use of function pointers. This also fixes a
theoretical error case where an object allocation fails and we
end up storing NULL into the cache.
Often `git_odb_read_header` will "fail" and have to read the
entire object into memory instead of just the header. When this
happens, the object is loaded and then disposed of immediately,
which makes it difficult to efficiently use the header information
to decide if the object should be loaded (since attempting to do
so will often result in loading the object twice).
This commit takes the existing code and reorganizes it to have
two new functions:
- `git_odb__read_header_or_object` which acts just like the old
read header function except that it returns the object, too, if
it was forced to load the whole thing. It then becomes the
callers responsibility to free the `git_odb_object`.
- `git_object__from_odb_object` which was extracted from the old
`git_object_lookup` and creates a subclass of `git_object` from
an existing `git_odb_object` (separating the ODB lookup from the
`git_object` creation). This allows you to use the first header
reading function efficiently without instantiating the
`git_odb_object` twice.
There is no net change to the behavior of any of the existing
functions, but this allows internal code to tap into the ODB
lookup and object creation to be more efficient.
This expands the types of peeling that `git_object_peel` knows
how to do to include TAG -> BLOB peeling, and makes the errors
slightly more consistent depending on the situation. It also
adds a new special behavior where peeling to ANY will peel until
the object type changes (e.g. chases TAGs to a non-TAG).
Using this expanded peeling, this replaces peeling code that was
embedded in `git_tag_peel` and `git_reset`.
This fix complements cb0ce16bbe and cover the following additional use cases
- retrieving an object which has been previously searched, found and cached
- retrieving an object through an non ambiguous abbreviated id
There are three changes here:
- correctly propogate error code from failed object lookups
- make zlib inflate use our allocators
- add OID to notfound error in ODB lookups
Depending on the operation, we need to consider gitattributes
in both the work dir and the index. This adds a parameter to
all of the gitattributes related functions that allows user
control of attribute reading behavior (i.e. prefer workdir,
prefer index, only use index).
This fix also covers allowing us to check attributes (and
hence do diff and status) on bare repositories.
This was a somewhat larger change that I hoped because it had
to change the cache key used for gitattributes files.
This migrates odb.c, odb_loose.c, odb_pack.c and pack.c to
the new style of error handling. Also got the unix and win32
versions of map.c. There are some minor changes to other
files but no others were completely converted.
This also contains an update to filebuf so that a zeroed out
filebuf will not think that the fd (== 0) is actually open
(and inadvertently call close() on fd 0 if cleaned up).
Lastly, this was built and tested on win32 and contains a
bunch of fixes for the win32 build which was pretty broken.
The ownership semantics have been changed all over the library to be
consistent. There are no more "borrowed" or duplicated references.
Main changes:
- `git_repository_open2` and `3` have been dropped.
- Added setters and getters to hotswap all the repository owned
objects:
`git_repository_index`
`git_repository_set_index`
`git_repository_odb`
`git_repository_set_odb`
`git_repository_config`
`git_repository_set_config`
`git_repository_workdir`
`git_repository_set_workdir`
Now working directories/index files/ODBs and so on can be
hot-swapped after creating a repository and between operations.
- All these objects now have proper ownership semantics with
refcounting: they all require freeing after they are no longer
needed (the repository always keeps its internal reference).
- Repository open and initialization has been updated to keep in
mind the configuration files. Bare repositories are now always
detected, and a default config file is created on init.
- All the tests affected by these changes have been dropped from the
old test suite and ported to the new one.
There were quite a few places were spaces were being used instead of
tabs. Try to catch them all. This should hopefully not break anything.
Except for `git blame`. Oh well.
1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.
Implemented find_unique_short_oid for pack backend, based on git sha1 lookup method;
finding an object given its full oid is just a particular case of searching
the unique object matching an oid prefix (short oid).
Added git_odb_read_unique_short_oid, which iterates over all the backends to
find and read the unique object matching the given oid prefix.
Added a git_object_lookup_short_oid method to find the unique object in
the repository matching a given oid prefix : it generalizes git_object_lookup
which now does nothing but calls git_object_lookup_short_oid.
