"git_config_backend" have been renamed to "git_config_file", which
implements a generic interface to access a configuration file -- be it
either on disk, from a DB or whatever mumbojumbo.
I think this makes more sense.
Configuration options can come from different sources. Currently,
there is only support for reading them from a flat file, but it might
make sense to read it from a database at some point.
Move the parsing code into src/config_file.c and create an include
file include/git2/config_backend.h to allow for other backends to be
developed.

Magic constant replaced by direct to-string covertion because of:
1) with value length 6 (040000 - subtree) final tree will be corrupted;
2) for wrong values length <6 final tree will be corrupted too.
If we don't create any leaks in the tests, we can use them to search
for leaks in the implementation.

git_repository_path() and git_repository_workdir() respectively return the path to the git repository and the working directory. Those paths are absolute and normalized.
The git test repository was holding a wrongly named tag reference ("very-simple") pointing at a tag named "e90810b".
This mistake (mine :-/ ) originates back to https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/commit/9282e92
Whole credit goes to @tclem for having spotted this.
Hey. Apologies in advance -- I broke your bindings.
This is a major commit that includes a long-overdue redesign of the
whole object-database structure. This is expected to be the last major
external API redesign of the library until the first non-alpha release.
Please get your bindings up to date with these changes. They will be
included in the next minor release. Sorry again!
Major features include:
- Real caching and refcounting on parsed objects
- Real caching and refcounting on objects read from the ODB
- Streaming writes & reads from the ODB
- Single-method writes for all object types
- The external API is now partially thread-safe
The speed increases are significant in all aspects, specially when
reading an object several times from the ODB (revwalking) and when
writing big objects to the ODB.
Here's a full changelog for the external API:
blob.h
------
- Remove `git_blob_new`
- Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent`
- Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent_fromfile`
- Rename `git_blob_writefile` -> `git_blob_create_fromfile`
- Change `git_blob_create_fromfile`:
The `path` argument is now relative to the repository's working dir
- Add `git_blob_create_frombuffer`
commit.h
--------
- Remove `git_commit_new`
- Remove `git_commit_add_parent`
- Remove `git_commit_set_message`

It's no longer retarded. All object interdependencies are stored as OIDs
instead of actual objects. This should be hundreds of times faster,
specially on big repositories. Heck, who knows, maye it doesn't even
segfault -- wouldn't that be awesome?
What has changed on the API?
`git_commit_parent`, `git_commit_tree`, `git_tag_target` now return
their values through a pointer-to-pointer, and have an error code.
`git_commit_set_tree` and `git_tag_set_target` now return an error
code and may fail.
`git_repository_free__no_gc` has been deprecated because it's
stupid. Since there are no longer any interdependencies between
objects, we don't need internal reference counting, and GC
never fails or double-free's pointers.
`git_object_close` now does a very sane thing: marks an object
as unused. Closed objects will be eventually free'd from the
object cache based on LRU. Please use `git_object_close` from
the garbage collector `destroy` method on your bindings. It's
100% safe.
`git_repository_gc` is a new method that forces a garbage collector
pass through the repo, to free as many LRU objects as possible.
This is useful if we are running out of memory.
The new revision walker uses an internal Commit object storage system,
custom memory allocator and much improved topological and time sorting
algorithms. It's about 20x times faster than the previous implementation
when browsing big repositories.
The following external API calls have changed:
`git_revwalk_next` returns an OID instead of a full commit object.
The initial call to `git_revwalk_next` is no longer blocking when
iterating through a repo with a time-sorting mode.
Iterating with Topological or inverted modes still makes the initial
call blocking to preprocess the commit list, but this block should be
mostly unnoticeable on most repositories (topological preprocessing
times at 0.3s on the git.git repo).
`git_revwalk_push` and `git_revwalk_hide` now take an OID instead
of a full commit object.
Set of methods to find the minimal-length to uniquely identify every OID
in a list. Useful for GUI applications, commit logs and so on.
Includes stress test.

We now store only one sorting callback that does entry comparison. This
is used when sorting the entries using a quicksort, and when looking for
a specific entry with the new search methods.
The following search methods now exist:
git_vector_search(vector, entry)
git_vector_search2(vector, custom_search_callback, key)
git_vector_bsearch(vector, entry)
git_vector_bsearch2(vector, custom_search_callback, key)
The sorting state of the vector is now stored internally.

The methods previously known as
git_repository_lookup
git_repository_newobject
git_repository_lookup_ref

git_object_lookup
git_object_new
git_reference_lookup

Tests are now declared with detailed descriptions and a short test name:
BEGIN_TEST(the_test0, "this is an example test that does something")
...
END_TEST
Modules are declared through a simple macro interface:
BEGIN_MODULE(mod_name)
ADD_TEST(the_test0);
...
END_MODULE
Error messages when tests fail have been greatly improved.

Test helper function which recursively copies the content of a
directory. This function has been tweaked to prevent stack overflows by
reusing the same path buffers on all recursive calls.
The following methods have been implemented:
git_reference_packall
git_reference_rename
git_reference_delete

partial and total writing. Internal documentation has been updated with

The old hash table with chained buckets has been replaced by a new one
using Cuckoo hashing, which offers guaranteed constant lookup times.
This should improve speeds on most use cases, since hash tables in
libgit2 are usually used as caches where the objects are stored once and
queried several times.
The Cuckoo hash implementation is based off the one in the Basekit
library [1] for the IO language, but rewritten to support an arbritrary
number of hashes. We currently use 3 to maximize the usage of the nodes pool.

In response to issue #60 (git_index_write really slow), the write_index
function has been rewritten to improve its performance -- it should now
be in par with the performance of git.git.
On top of that, if Posix Threads are available when compiling libgit2, a
new threaded writing system will be used (3 separate threads take care
of solving byte-endianness, hashing the contents of the index and
writing to disk, respectively). For very long Index files, this method
is up to 3x times faster than git.git.

The priority value for different backends has been removed from the
public `git_odb_backend` struct. We handle that internally. The priority
value is specified on the `git_odb_add_alternate`.
This is convenient because it allows us to poll a backend twice with
different priorities without having to instantiate it twice.
We also differentiate between main backends and alternates; alternates have
lower priority and cannot be written to.
These changes come with some unit tests to make sure that the backend
sorting is consistent.
The libgit2 version has been bumped to 0.4.0.
This commit changes the external API:
CHANGED:
struct git_odb_backend
No longer has a `priority` attribute; priority for the backend
in managed internally by the library.
git_odb_add_backend(git_odb *odb, git_odb_backend *backend, int priority)
Now takes an additional priority parameter, the priority that
will be given to the backend.
ADDED:
git_odb_add_alternate(git_odb *odb, git_odb_backend *backend, int priority)
Add a backend as an alternate. Alternate backends have always
lower priority than main backends, and writing is disabled on
them.

The `git__joinpath` function has been changed to use a statically
allocated buffer; we assume the buffer to be 4096 bytes, because fuck
you.
The new method also supports an arbritrary number of paths to join,
which may come in handy in the future.
Some methods which were manually joining paths with `strcpy` now use the
new function, namely those in `index.c` and `refs.c`.
Based on Emeric Fermas' original patch, which was using the old
`git__joinpath` because I'm stupid. Thanks!

The `dirname` and `dirbase` methods have been replaced with the Android
implementation, which is actually compilant to some kind of standard.
A new method `topdir` has been added, which returns the topmost
directory in a path.
These changes fix issue #49:
`gitfo_prettify_dir_path` converts "./.git/" to ".git/", so
the code at src/repository.c:190 goes out of bounds when
trying to find the topmost directory.
The new `git__topdir` method handles this gracefully, and the
fixed `git__dirname` now returns the proper value for the
repository's working dir.
E.g.
/repo/.git/ ==> working dir '/repo/'
.git/ ==> working dir '.'
