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.
This builds on the earlier thread safety work to make it so that
setting the odb, index, refdb, or config for a repository is done
in a threadsafe manner with minimized locking time. This is done
by adding a lock to the repository object and using it to guard
the assignment of the above listed pointers. The lock is only
held to assign the pointer value.
This also contains some minor fixes to the other work with pack
files to reduce the time that locks are being held to and fix an
apparently memory leak.
This moves most of the refdb stuff over to the include/git2/sys
directory, with some minor shifts in function organization.
While I was making the necessary updates, I also removed the
trailing whitespace in a few files that I modified just because I
was there and it was bugging me.
Clean up some sorting function stuff including fixing qsort_r
on MinGW, common function pointer type for comparison, and basic
insertion sort implementation (which we, regrettably, fall back
on for MinGW).
There is a serious bug in the previous tree iterator implementation.
If case insensitivity resulted in member elements being equivalent
to one another, and those member elements were trees, then the
children of the colliding elements would be processed in sequence
instead of in a single flattened list. This meant that the tree
iterator was not truly acting like a case-insensitive list.
This completely reworks the tree iterator to manage lists with
case insensitive equivalence classes and advance through the items
in a unified manner in a single sorted frame.
It is possible that at a future date we might want to update this
to separate the case insensitive and case sensitive tree iterators
so that the case sensitive one could be a minimal amount of code
and the insensitive one would always know what it needed to do
without checking flags.
But there would be so much shared code between the two, that I'm
not sure it that's a win. For now, this gets what we need.
More tests are needed, though.
git__bsearch and git__tsort did not pass a payload through to the
comparison function. This makes it impossible to implement sorted
lists where the sort order depends on external data (e.g. building
a secondary sort order for the entries in a tree). This commit
adds git__bsearch_r and git__tsort_r versions that pass a third
parameter to the cmp function of a user payload.
Using the builtin strcmp and strcasecmp as function pointers is
problematic on win32. This adds internal implementations and
divorces us from the platform linkage.
There are some diff functions that are useful in a rewritten
checkout and this lays some groundwork for that. This contains
three main things:
1. Share the function diff uses to calculate the OID for a file
in the working directory (now named `git_diff__oid_for_file`
2. Add a `git_diff__paired_foreach` function to iterator over
two diff lists concurrently. Convert status to use it.
3. Move all the string/prefix/index entry comparisons into
function pointers inside the `git_diff_list` object so they
can be switched between case sensitive and insensitive
versions. This makes them easier to reuse in various
functions without replicating logic. As part of this, move
a couple of index functions out of diff.c and into index.c.
Ported the win32 implementations of gmtime_r,
localtime_r, and gettimeofday to be part of the
posix compatibility layer, and fixed
git_signature_now to use them.
The goal of this work is to rewrite git_status_file to use the
same underlying code as git_status_foreach.
This is done in 3 phases:
1. Extend iterators to allow ranged iteration with start and
end prefixes for the range of file names to be covered.
2. Improve diff so that when there is a pathspec and there is
a common non-wildcard prefix of the pathspec, it will use
ranged iterators to minimize excess iteration.
3. Rewrite git_status_file to call git_status_foreach_ext
with a pathspec that covers just the one file being checked.
Since ranged iterators underlie the status & diff implementation,
this is actually fairly efficient. The workdir iterator does
end up loading the contents of all the directories down to the
single file, which should ideally be avoided, but it is pretty
good.
Includes:
- Proper error reporting when encountering syntax errors in a
config file (file, line number, column).
- Rewritten `config_write`, now with 99% less goto-spaghetti
- Error state in `git_filebuf`: filebuf write functions no longer
need to be checked for error returns. If any of the writes performed
on a buffer fail, the last call to `git_filebuf_commit` or
`git_filebuf_hash` will fail accordingly and set the appropiate error
message. Baller!
This also includes droping `git_buf_lasterror` because it makes no sense
in the new system. Note that in most of the places were it has been
dropped, the code needs cleanup. I.e. GIT_ENOMEM is going away, so
instead it should return a generic `-1` and obviously not throw
anything.
After reviewing the gitignore support with Vicent, we came up
with a list of minor cleanups to prepare for merge, including:
* checking git_repository_config error returns
* renaming git_ignore_is_ignored and moving to status.h
* fixing next_line skipping to include \r skips
* commenting on where ignores are and are not included
Adds support for .gitignore files to git_status_foreach() and
git_status_file(). This includes refactoring the gitattributes
code to share logic where possible. The GIT_STATUS_IGNORED flag
will now be passed in for files that are ignored (provided they
are not already in the index or the head of repo).
This updates to implementation of gitattribute macros to be much more
similar to core git (albeit not 100%) and to handle expansion of
macros within macros, etc. It also cleans up the refcounting usage
with macros to be much cleaner.
Also, this adds a new vector function `git_vector_insert_sorted()`
which allows you to maintain a sorted list as you go. In order to
write that function, this changes the function `git__bsearch()` to
take a somewhat different set of parameters, although the core
functionality is still the same.
Add support for git attribute macro definitions. Also, add
support for cache flush API to clear the attribute file content
cache when needed.
Additionally, improved the handling of global and system files,
making common utility functions in fileops and converting config
and attr to both use the common functions.
Adds a bunch more tests and fixed some memory leaks. Note that
adding macros required me to use refcounted attribute assignment
definitions, which complicated, but probably improved memory usage.
This adds APIs for querying git attributes. In addition to
the new API in include/git2/attr.h, most of the action is in
src/attr_file.[hc] which contains utilities for dealing with
a single attributes file, and src/attr.[hc] which contains
the implementation of the APIs that merge all applicable
attributes files.
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.
