Many code paths in checkout need the final, full on-disk path of the
file they're writing. (No surprise). However, they all munge the
`data->path` buffer themselves to get there. Provide a nice helper
method for them.
Plus, drop the use `git_iterator_current_workdir_path` which does the
same thing but different. Checkout is the only caller of this silly
function, which lets us remove it.
Refactored the tree iterator to never recurse; simply process the
next entry in order in `advance`. Additionally, reduce the number of
allocations and sorting as much as possible to provide a ~30% speedup
on case-sensitive iteration. (The gains for case-insensitive iteration
are less majestic.)
Disambiguate the reset and reset_range functions. Now reset_range
with a NULL path will clear the start or end; reset will leave the
existing start and end unchanged.
The callback mechanism makes it awkward to write data from an IO
source; move to `_fromstream()` which lets the caller remain in control,
in the same vein as we prefer iterators over foreach callbacks.
By returning when the count goes to zero rather than below it, setting
`howmany` to 7 in fact writes out the string 6 times.
Correct the termination condition to write out the string the amount of
times we specify.
The pair of `git_blob_create_frombuffer()` and
`git_blob_create_frombuffer_commit()` is meant to replace
`git_blob_create_fromchunks()` by providing a way for a user to write a
new blob when they want filtering or they do not know the size.
This approach allows the caller to retain control over when to add data
to this buffer and a more natural fit into higher-level language's own
stream abstractions instead of having to handle IO wait in the callback.
The in-memory buffer size of 2MB is chosen somewhat arbitrarily to be a
round multiple of usual page sizes and a value where most blobs seem
likely to be either going to be way below or way over that size. It's
also a round number of pages.
This implementation re-uses the helper we have from `_fromchunks()` so
we end up writing everything to disk, but hopefully more efficiently
than with a default filebuf. A later optimisation can be to avoid
writing the in-memory contents to disk, with some extra complexity.
Allow setting the buffer size on open in order to use this data
structure more generally as a spill buffer, with larger buffer sizes for
specific use-cases.
Take advantage of the constant size of tree-owned arrays and store them
in an array instead of a pool. This still lets us free them all at once
but lets the system allocator do the work of fitting them in.
Since the `apply` callback can defer, the `check` callback is not
necessary. Removing the `check` callback further makes the `payload`
unnecessary along with the `cleanup` callback.
Ensure that setting the merge attribute forces the built-in default
`text` driver and does *not* honor the `merge.default` configuration
option. Further ensure that unsetting the merge attribute forces
a conflict (the `binary` driver).
Consumers can now register custom merged drivers with
`git_merge_driver_register`. This allows consumers to support the
merge drivers, as configured in `.gitattributes`. Consumers will be
asked to perform the file-level merge when a custom driver is
configured.
The function to extract signatures suffers from a similar bug to the
header field finding one by having an unecessary line feed check as a
break condition of its loop.
Fix that and add a test for this single-line signature situation.
