As refdb and odb backends can be allocated by client code, libgit2
can’t know whether an alternative memory allocator was used, and thus
should not try to call `git__free` on those objects.
Instead, odb and refdb backend implementations must always provide
their own `free` functions to ensure memory gets freed correctly.
When we do not trust the on-disk mode, we use the mode of an existing
index entry. This allows us to preserve executable bits on platforms
that do not honor them on the filesystem.
If there is no stage 0 index entry, also look at conflicts to attempt
to answer this question: prefer the data from the 'ours' side, then
the 'theirs' side before falling back to the common ancestor.
Document that `GIT_DIFF_PATHSPEC_DISABLE` is not necessarily about
explicit path matching, but also includes matching of directory
names. Enforce this in a test.
libgit2 implementations of smart subtransports can simply reach through
the structure, but external implementors cannot.
Add these two functions as a way for the smart subtransports to get the
callbacks as set by the user.
This lock/unlock pair allows for the cller to lock a configuration file
to avoid concurrent operations.
It also allows for a transactional approach to updating a configuration
file. If multiple updates must be made atomically, they can be done
while the config is locked.
When a configuration file is locked, any updates made to it will be done
to the in-memory copy of the file. This allows for multiple updates to
happen while we hold the lock, preventing races during complex
config-file manipulation.
git_fetch_options was missing from the API docs because it lacked a
documentation comment above the struct declaration.
I used the git_checkout_options docstring as a template.
Also fixes a typo in git_remote_prune_refs (remote, not reamote).
Removing a reflog upon ref deletion is something which only some
backends might wish to do. Backends which are database-backed may wish
to archive a reflog, log-based ones may not need to do anything.
The function was removed, but its declaration and changelog entry about
its removal were forgotten.
The comment in the test doesn't make any sense as the function doesn't
exist anymore, so get rid of it as well.
Allow custom filters with wildcard attributes, so that clients
can support some random `filter=foo` in a .gitattributes and look
up the corresponding smudge/clean commands in the configuration file.
We currently recommend using `git_buf_grow` in order to make a buffer
make an owned copy of the memory it points to. This is not behaviour we
should encourage, so remove this recommendation.
The function itself is not changed, as we need to remain compatible, but
it will be changed not to allow usage on borrowed buffers.
If the stream claims to support this feature, we can let the transport
set the proxy.
We also set HTTPPROXYTUNNEL option so curl can create a tunnel through
the proxy which lets us create our own TLS session (if needed).
Similarly to the other ones. In this test we copy over testing
`RECURSE_YES` which shows an error in our handling of the `YES` variant
which we may have to port to the rest.
This lets us specify in the status call which ignore rules we want to
use (optionally falling back to whatever the submodule has in its
configuration).
This removes one of the reasons for having `_set_ignore()` set the value
in-memory. We re-use the `IGNORE_RESET` value for this as it is no
longer relevant but has a similar purpose to `IGNORE_FALLBACK`.
Similarly, we remove `IGNORE_DEFAULT` which does not have use outside of
initializers and move that to fall back to the configuration as well.
As submodules are becomes more like values, we should not let a status
check to update its properties. Instead of taking a submodule, have
status take a repo and submodule name.
This allows the user to look up fields which we don't parse in libgit2,
and allows them to access gpgsig or mergetag fields if they wish to
check the signature.
We currently use a timetamp to check whether an index file has been
modified since we last read it, but this is racy. If two updates happen
in the same second and we read after the first one, we won't detect the
second one.
Instead read the SHA-1 checksum of the file, which are its last 20 bytes which
gives us a sure-fire way to detect whether the file has changed since we
last read it.
As we're now keeping track of it, expose an accessor to this data.
Introduce a new binary diff callback to provide the actual binary
delta contents to callers. Create this data from the diff contents
(instead of directly from the ODB) to support binary diffs including
the workdir, not just things coming out of the ODB.
A remote's URLs are now modified according to the url.*.insteadOf
and url.*.pushInsteadOf configurations. This allows a user to
replace URL prefixes by setting the corresponding keys. E.g.
"url.foo.insteadOf = bar" would replace the prefix "bar" with the
new prefix "foo".
We do not error on "merge conflicts"; on the contrary, merge conflicts
are a normal part of merging. We only error on "checkout conflicts",
where a change exists in the index or the working directory that would
otherwise be overwritten by performing the checkout.
This *may* happen during merge (after the production of the new index
that we're going to checkout) but it could happen during any checkout.
Mark the `old_file` and `new_file` sides of a delta with a new bit,
`GIT_DIFF_FLAG_EXISTS`, that introduces that a particular side of
the delta exists in the diff.
This is useful for indicating whether a working directory item exists
or not, in the presence of a conflict. Diff users may have previously
used DELETED to determine this information.
It's not always obvious the mapping between stage level and
conflict-ness. More importantly, this can lead otherwise sane
people to write constructs like `if (!git_index_entry_stage(entry))`,
which (while technically correct) is unreadable.
Provide a nice method to help avoid such messy thinking.
When diffing against an index, return a new `GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED`
delta type for items that are conflicted. For a single file path,
only one delta will be produced (despite the fact that there are
multiple entries in the index).
Index iterators now have the (optional) ability to return conflicts
in the index. Prior to this change, they would be omitted, and callers
(like diff) would omit conflicted index entries entirely.
When we moved from acting on the instance to acting on the
configuration, we dropped the validation of the passed refspec, which
can lead to writing an invalid refspec to the configuration. Bring that
validation back.
Declare GIT_CREDTYPE_SSH_MEMORY to have consistent API independently of
whether libgit2 was built with or without in-memory key passing support.
Or rather, to have it at all since build-time definitions are not stored
in headers.
Make both username & password in git_cred_userpass_payload 'const'.
The values are not altered anywhere, and the extra qualifier allows
clients to assign 'const' values there.
This can be used by tools to show mesages about failing to communicate
with the server. The error message in this case will often contain the
server's error message, as far as it managed to send anything.
These were left over from the culling as it's not clear which use-cases
might benefit from this. It is not clear that we want to support any
use-case which depends on changing the remote's idea of the base
refspecs rather than passing in different per-operation refspec list, so
remove these functions.
The base refspecs changing can be a cause of confusion as to what is the
current base refspec set and complicate saving the remote's
configuration.
Change `git_remote_add_{fetch,push}()` to update the configuration
instead of an instance.
This finally makes `git_remote_save()` a no-op, it will be removed in a
later commit.
While this will rarely be different from the default, having it in the
remote adds yet another setting it has to keep around and can affect its
behaviour. Move it to the options.
Instead of having it set in a different place from every other callback,
put it the main structure. This removes some state from the remote and
makes it behave more like clone, where the constructors are passed via
the options.
As a first step in removing the repository-saving logic, don't allow
chaning the url or push url from a remote object, but change the
configuration on the configuration immediately.
Having the setting be different from calling its actions was not a great
idea and made for the sake of the wrong convenience.
Instead of that, accept either fetch options, push options or the
callbacks when dealing with the remote. The fetch options are currently
only the callbacks, but more options will be moved from setters and
getters on the remote to the options.
This does mean passing the same struct along the different functions but
the typical use-case will only call git_remote_fetch() or
git_remote_push() and so won't notice much difference.
