DIRECT WRITES ARE BACK AND FASTER THAN EVER. The streaming writer to the
ODB was an overkill for the smaller objects like Commit and Tags; most
of the streaming logic was taking too long.
This commit makes Commits, Tags and Trees to be built-up in memory, and
then written to disk in 2 pushes (header + data), instead of streaming
everything.
This is *always* faster, even for big files (since the git_filebuf class
still does streaming writes when the memory cache overflows). This is
also a gazillion lines of code smaller, because we don't have to
precompute the final size of the object before starting the stream (this
was kind of defeating the point of streaming, anyway).
Blobs are still written with full streaming instead of loading them in
memory, since this is still the fastest way.
A new `git_buf` class has been added. It's missing some features, but
it'll get there.
Our good, lovely folks at Microsoft decided that there was no good
reason to make `vsnprintf` compilant with the C standard, so that
function in Windows returns -1 on overflow, instead of returning the
actual byte count needed to write the full string.
We now handle this situation more gracefully with the POSIX
compatibility layer, by returning the needed byte size using an
auxiliary method instead of blindly resizing the target buffer until it
fits.
This means we can now support `printf`s of any size by allocating a
temporary buffer. That's good.
So far libgit2 didn't support reference logs (reflog). Add a new
git_reflog_* API for basic reading and writing of reflogs:
* git_reflog_read
* git_reflog_write
* git_reflog_free

Drop the GLibc implementation of Merge Sort and replace it with Timsort.
The algorithm has been tuned to work on arrays of pointers (void **),
so there's no longer a need to abstract the byte-width of each element
in the array.
All the comparison callbacks now take pointers-to-elements, not
pointers-to-pointers, so there's now one less level of dereferencing.
E.g.
int index_cmp(const void *a, const void *b)
{
- const git_index_entry *entry_a = *(const git_index_entry **)(a);
+ const git_index_entry *entry_a = (const git_index_entry *)(a);
The result is up to a 40% speed-up when sorting vectors. Memory usage
remains lineal.
A new `bsearch` implementation has been added, whose callback also
supplies pointer-to-elements, to uniform the Vector API again.
`git_futils_rmdir_r`: rename, clean up.
`git_reference_rename`: cleanup. Do not use 3x4096 buffers on the stack
or things will get ugly very fast. We can reuse the same buffer.
MSYS/MinGW uses winsock but obviously doesn't set _MSC_VER. Use _WIN32
to decide whether to use winsock or BSD headers. Also remove these
headers from src/transport_git.c altogether, as they are not needed.
MSYS is very conservative, so we have to tell it that we don't care
about versions of Windows lower than WindowsXP. We also need to tell
CMake to add ws2_32 to the libraries list and we shouldn't add the
-fPIC option, to MSYS because it complains that it does it anyway.

So far libgit2 didn't handle the following scenarios:
* Rename of reference m -> m/m
* Rename of reference n/n -> n
Fixed.
Since we don't write reflogs, we have to delete any old reflog for the
renamed reference. Otherwise git.git will possibly fail when it finds
invalid logs.

git_futils_rmdir_recurs() shall remove the given directory and all
subdirectories. This happens only if the directories are empty.

Run `make -f Makefile.embed` to get a `libgit2.a` with no dependencies
and no configuration on any Unix-like system.
The generated library can be linked with any piece of software without
licensing issues.
Have fun.
Removing a section variable doesn't remove its section
header. Overwrite the config10 file so there are no changes after the
test is run.

It removes all entries with equal path except last added.
On large indexes git_index_append() + git_index_uniq() before writing is
*much* faster, than git_index_add().

The routine remove duplictes from the vector. Only the last added element
of elements with equal keys remains in the vector.

Index operation use git_vector_sort() to sort index entries. Since index
support adding duplicates (two or more entries with the same path), it's
important to preserve order of elements. Preserving order of elements
allows to make decisions based on order. For example it's possible to
implement function witch removes all duplicates except last added.

In some cases it's important to preserve order of elements with equal
keys (stable sort). qsort(3) doesn't define order of elements with
equal keys.
git__msort() implements merge sort which is stable sort.
Implementation taken from git. Function renamed git_qsort() -> git__msort().

git_index_find() in index_insert() is useless if replace is not
requested (append). Do not call it in this case.
It speedup git_index_append() *dramatically* on large indexes.
$ cat index_test.c
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
git_index *index;
git_repository *repo;
git_odb *odb;
struct git_index_entry entry;
git_oid tree_oid;
char tree_hex[41];
int i;
git_repository_init(&repo, "/tmp/myrepo", 0);
odb = git_repository_database(repo);
git_repository_index(&index, repo);
memset(&entry, 0, sizeof(entry));
git_odb_write(&entry.oid, odb, "", 0, GIT_OBJ_BLOB);
entry.path = "test.file";
for (i = 0; i < 50000; i++)
git_index_append2(index, &entry);
git_tree_create_fromindex(&tree_oid, index);
git_oid_fmt(tree_hex, &tree_oid);
tree_hex[40] = '\0';
printf("tree: %s\n", tree_hex);
git_index_free(index);
git_repository_free(repo);
return 0;
}
