This is a convenience function to reverse the contents of a vector and a pqueue
in-place.
The pqueue function is useful in the case where we're treating it as a
LIFO queue.
We had some home-grown logic to figure out which objects to show during
the revision walk, but it was rather inefficient, looking over the same
list multiple times to figure out when we had run out of interesting
commits. We now use the lists in a smarter way.
We also introduce the slop mechanism to determine when to stpo
looking. When we run out of interesting objects, we continue preparing
the walk for another 5 rounds in order to make it less likely that we
miss objects in situations with complex graphs.
When trying to determine if we can safely overwrite an existing workdir
item, we may need to calculate the oid for the workdir item to determine
if its identical to the old side (and eligible for removal).
We previously did this regardless of the type of entry in the workdir;
if it was a directory, we would open(2) it and then try to read(2).
The read(2) of a directory fails on many platforms, so we would treat it
as if it were unmodified and continue to perform the checkout.
On FreeBSD, you _can_ read(2) a directory, so this pattern failed. We
would calculate an oid from the data read and determine that the
directory was modified and would therefore generate a checkout conflict.
This reliance on read(2) is silly (and was most likely accidentally
giving us the behavior we wanted), we should be explicit about the
directory test.
When creating and printing diffs, deal with binary deltas that have
binary data specially, versus diffs that have a binary file but lack the
actual binary data.
The `PKG_CHECK_MODULES` function searches a pkg-config module and
then proceeds to set various variables containing information on
how to link to the library. In contrast to the `FIND_PACKAGE`
function, the library path set by `PKG_CHECK_MODULES` will not
necessarily contain linking instructions with a complete path to
the library, though. So when a library is not installed in a
standard location, the linker might later fail due to being
unable to locate it.
While we already honor this when configuring libssh2 by adding
`LIBSSH2_LIBRARY_DIRS` to the link directories, we fail to do so
for libcurl, preventing us to build libgit2 on e.g. FreeBSD. Fix
the issue by adding the curl library directory to the linker
search path.
Instead of skipping printing a binary diff when there is no data, skip
printing when we have a status of `UNMODIFIED`. This is more in-line
with our internal data model and allows us to expand the notion of
binary data.
In the future, there may have no data because the files were unmodified
(there was no data to produce) or it may have no data because there was
no data given to us in a patch. We want to treat these cases
separately.
When generating diffs for binary files, we load and decompress
the blobs in order to generate the actual diff, which can be very
costly. While we cannot avoid this for the case when we are
called with the `GIT_DIFF_SHOW_BINARY` flag, we do not have to
load the blobs in the case where this flag is not set, as the
caller is expected to have no interest in the actual content of
binary files.
Fix the issue by only generating a binary diff when the caller is
actually interested in the diff. As libgit2 uses heuristics to
determine that a blob contains binary data by inspecting its size
without loading from the ODB, this saves us quite some time when
diffing in a repository with binary files.
According to the reference the git_checkout_tree and git_checkout_head
functions should accept NULL in the opts field
This was broken since the opts field was dereferenced and thus lead to a
crash.
Introduce GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYMBOLIC_REF_TARGET_VALIDATION option.
Setting this option to 0 allows
validation of a symbolic ref's target to be bypassed.
This option is enabled by default.
This mechanism is added primarily to address a discrepancy between git
behaviour and libgit2 behaviour, whereby the former allows the symbolic
ref target to carry an arbitrary string and the latter does not, so:
$ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/foo bar
$ cat .git/refs/heads/foo
ref: bar
where as attempting the same via libgit2 raises an error:
The given reference name 'bar' is not valid
this mechanism also allows those that might want to make use of
git's more lenient treatment of symbolic ref targets to do so.
When calling `http_connect` on a subtransport whose stream is already
connected, we first close the stream in case no keep-alive is in use.
When doing so, we do not reset the transport's connection state,
though. Usually, this will do no harm in case the subsequent connect
will succeed. But when the connection fails we are left with a
substransport which is tagged as connected but which has no valid
stream attached.
Fix the issue by resetting the subtransport's connected-state when
closing its stream in `http_connect`.
The .gitignore file allows for patterns which unignore previous
ignore patterns. When unignoring a previous pattern, there are
basically three cases how this is matched when no globbing is
used:
1. when a previous file has been ignored, it can be unignored by
using its exact name, e.g.
foo/bar
!foo/bar
2. when a file in a subdirectory has been ignored, it can be
unignored by using its basename, e.g.
foo/bar
!bar
3. when all files with a basename are ignored, a specific file
can be unignored again by specifying its path in a
subdirectory, e.g.
bar
!foo/bar
The first problem in libgit2 is that we did not correctly treat
the second case. While we verified that the negative pattern
matches the tail of the positive one, we did not verify if it
only matches the basename of the positive pattern. So e.g. we
would have also negated a pattern like
foo/fruz_bar
!bar
Furthermore, we did not check for the third case, where a
basename is being unignored in a certain subdirectory again.
Both issues are fixed with this commit.
Support reading and writing index v4. Index v4 uses a very simple
compression scheme for pathnames, but is otherwise similar to index v3.

When failing to initialize a new stransport stream, we try to
release already allocated memory by calling out to
`git_stream_free`, which in turn called out to the stream's
`free` function pointer. As we only initialize the function
pointer later on, this leads to a `NULL` pointer exception.
Furthermore, plug another memory leak when failing to create the
SSL context.
Only provide the empty tree internally, which matches git's behavior.
If we provide the empty blob then any users trying to write it with
libgit2 would omit it from actually landing in the odb, which appear
to git proper as a broken repository (missing that object).
