The documentation has shown this as a single enum for a long time. These
should in fact be two enums. One with the bits for the flags and another
with the bits for the extended flags.
If requested, git_clone_local_into() will try to link the object files
instead of copying them.
This only works on non-Windows (since it doesn't have this) when both
are on the same filesystem (which are unix semantics).
When git is given such a path, it will perform a "local clone",
bypassing the git-aware protocol and simply copying over all objects
that exist in the source.
Copy this behaviour when given a local path.
Diff and status do not want core.safecrlf to actually raise an
error regardless of the setting, so this extends the filter API
with an additional options flags parameter and adds a flag so that
filters can be applied with GIT_FILTER_OPT_ALLOW_UNSAFE, indicating
that unsafe filter application should be downgraded from a failure
to a warning.
This is a proposed adjustment to the trace APIs. This makes the
trace levels into a bitmask so that they can be selectively enabled
and adds a callback-level payload, plus a message-level payload.
This makes it easier for me to a GIT_TRACE_PERF callbacks that
are simply bypassed if the PERF level is not set.
This adds an option to refresh the stat cache while generating
status. It also rips out the GIT_PERF stuff I had an makes use
of the trace API to keep statistics about what happens during diff.
When diff is scanning the working directory, if it finds a file
where it is not sure if the index entry matches the working dir,
it will recalculate the OID (which is pretty expensive). This
adds a new flag to diff so that if the OID calculation finds that
the file actually has not changed (i.e. just the modified time was
altered or such), then it will refresh the stat cache in the index
so that future calls to diff will not have to check the oid again.
This reorganized the diff OID calculation to make it easier to
correctly update the stat cache during a diff once the flags to
do so are enabled.
This includes marking the path of a git_index_entry as const so
we can make a "fake" git_index_entry with a "const char *" path
and not get warnings. I was a little surprised at how unobtrusive
this change was, but I think it's probably a good thing.
The current version of the commit creation and amend function are unsafe
to use when passing the update_ref parameter, as they do not check that
the reference at the moment of update points to what the user expects.
Make sure that we're moving history forward when we ask the library to
update the reference for us by checking that the first parent of the new
commit is the current value of the reference. We also make sure that the
ref we're updating hasn't moved between the read and the write.
Similarly, when amending a commit, make sure that the current tip of the
branch is the commit we're amending.
