The better solution would probably be to turn the gitfo_lstat /
gitfo_readlink macros into real functions that wrap either lstat or
gitfo_lstat__w32 (and readlink or gitfo_readlink__w32). However, that
would introduce an indirection unless inlined. For now, this is the less
intrusive change.
Handle Symlinks if they can be handled in Win32. This is not even
compiled. Needs review.
The lstat implementation is modified from core Git.
The readlink implementation is modified from PHP.
In git, the short message of a commit is the part of the commit message before 2 consecutive line breaks. In the short message, line breaks are replaced by space characters.
After each variable gets set, we store it in our list (not completely
in the right position, but the close enough). Then we write out the
new config file in the same way that git.git does it (keep the rest of
the file intact and insert or replace the variable in its line).
Overwriting variables and adding new ones is supported (even on new
sections), though deleting isn't yet.

The section name should be stored in its case-sensitive variant when
we are adding a new variable. Use the internalize_section function to
do just that.

The (rather late) early-exit code, which provides a negligible
optimisation causes cvar_match_section to return false negatives when
it's called with a section name instead of a full variable name.
Remove this optimisation.

When calling gitfo_exists() on a symbolic link, sometimes we need to
simply check whether the link exists and sometimes we need to check
whether the file pointed to by the symlink exists.
Introduce a new function gitfo_shallow_exists that only checks if the
link exists and revert gitfo_exists to the original functionality of
checking whether the file pointed to by the link exists.
This reverts commit df1c98ab6d6171ed63729195bd190b54b67fe530.
As 8a27b6b reverts the exposition of struct stat to the external API, we
do not need - indeed, do not want - struct stat to be in the outer
include layer.
00582bc introduced a change that required the caller of
git_blob_create_fromfile() to pass a struct stat with the stat
information for the file. Several developers pointed out that this would
make life hard for the bindings developers as struct stat isn't widely
supported by other languages.
Make git_blob_create_fromfile() stat the path itself, eliminating the
need for the file to be stat'ed by the caller. This makes
index_init_entry() more costly as the file will be stat'ed twice but
makes life easier for everyone else.
00582bcb introduced a change to git_blob_create_fromfile() that required
the caller to pass a stat struct. This means that we need to include
stat.h higher in the hierarchy of includes.
The entry mode flags for an entry created from a path name were not
correctly written if the entry was a symlink. The st_mode of a statted
symlink is 0120777, however git requires the mode to read 0120000,
because it does not care about permissions of symlinks.
Introduce index_create_mode() that correctly writes the mode flags in
the form expected by git.
gitfo_exists() used to error out if the given file was a symbolic link,
due to access() returning an error code. This is not expected behaviour,
as gitfo_exists() should only check whether the file itself exists, not
its link target if it is a symbolic link.
Fix this by calling gitfo_lstat() instead, which is just a wrapper for
lstat().
Also fix the same error in index_init_entry().
In order to be able to write symlinks with git_blob_create_fromfile(),
we need to check whether the file to be written is a symbolic link or
not. Since the calling function of git_blob_create_fromfile() is likely to have
stated the file before calling, we make it pass the stat.
The reason for this is that writing symbolic link blobs is significantly
different from writing ordinary files - we do not want to open the link
destination but instead want to write the link itself, regardless of
whether it exists or not.
Previously, index_init_entry() used to error out if the file to be added
was a symlink that pointed to a nonexistent file. Fix this behaviour to
add the file regardless of whether it exists. This mimics git.git's
behaviour.
As suggested by carlosmn, git_oid_ncmp would probably
be a better name than git_oid_match, for it does the same
as git_oid_cmp but only up to a certain amount of hex digits.
Feature Added: Search an unmerged entry by path (git_index_get_unmerged
renamed to git_index_get_unmerged_bypath) or by index (git_index_get_unmerged_byindex).
Now the ceiling_dirs are compared with their symbolic free version (like base_path).
The ceiling dirs check is now performed after getting the parent directory.
retrieve_device returns the file device for a given path (so that we can detect device change while walking through parent directories).
abspath returns a canonicalized path, symbolic link free.
retrieive_ceiling_directories_offset returns the biggest path offset that path match in the ceiling directory list (so that we can stop at ceiling directories).
Implemented find_unique_short_oid for pack backend, based on git sha1 lookup method;
finding an object given its full oid is just a particular case of searching
the unique object matching an oid prefix (short oid).
Added git_odb_read_unique_short_oid, which iterates over all the backends to
find and read the unique object matching the given oid prefix.
Added a git_object_lookup_short_oid method to find the unique object in
the repository matching a given oid prefix : it generalizes git_object_lookup
which now does nothing but calls git_object_lookup_short_oid.
A TREE extension with an entry count of -1 means that it was

There are two reasons why read_tree_internal might return a NULL
tree. The first one is a corrupt index, but the second one is an
invalidated TREE extension. Up to now, its only way to communicate
with its caller was through the return value being NULL or not.
Allow read_tree_internal to report its exit status independently from
the tree pointer.

"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.
Regarding "initialize" vs. "initialise", www.dict.cc says the first is American
English whereas the latter in British English. For consistency, we should
stick to American English.
When I changed it over to use different strings for the variable and

Now we use a simple closed-addressing cache. Cuckoo hashing was creating
too many issues with race conditions. Fuck that.
Let's see what happens performance wise, we may have to roll back or
come up with another way to implement an efficient multi-threaded cache.
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.

Ok, this is the real deal. Hopefully. Here's how it's going to work:
- One main method, called `git__throw`, that sets the error
code and error message when an error happens.
This method must be called in every single place where an error
code was being returned previously, setting an error message
instead.
Example, instead of:
return GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED;
Use:
return git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED,
"The object is missing a finalizing line feed");
And instead of:
[...] {
error = GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED;
goto cleanup;
}
Use:
[...] {
error = git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED, "What an error!");
goto cleanup;
}
The **only** exception to this are the allocation methods, which
return NULL on failure but already set the message manually.
/* only place where an error code can be returned directly,
because the error message has already been set by the wrapper */
if (foo == NULL)
return GIT_ENOMEM;
- One secondary method, called `git__rethrow`, which can be used to
fine-grain an error message and build an error stack.
Example, instead of:
if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS)
return error;
You can now do:
if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS)
return git__rethrow(error, "Failed to do a major operation");
The return of the `git_lasterror` method will be a string in the
shape of:
"Failed to do a major operation. (Failed to do an internal
operation)"
E.g.
"Failed to open the index. (Not enough permissions to access
'/path/to/index')."
NOTE: do not abuse this method. Try to write all `git__throw`
messages in a descriptive manner, to avoid having to rethrow them to
clarify their meaning.
This method should only be used in the places where the original
error message set by a subroutine is not specific enough.
It is encouraged to continue using this style as much possible to
enforce error propagation:
if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS)
return error; /* `foobar` has set an error message, and
we are just propagating it */
The error handling revamp will take place in two phases:
- Phase 1: Replace all pieces of code that return direct error codes
with calls to `git__throw`. This can be done semi-automatically
using `ack` to locate all the error codes that must be replaced.
- Phase 2: Add some `git__rethrow` calls in those cases where the
original error messages are not specific enough.
Phase 1 is the main goal. A minor libgit2 release will be shipped once
Phase 1 is ready, and the work will start on gradually improving the
error handling mechanism by refining specific error messages.
OTHER NOTES:
- When writing error messages, please refrain from using weasel
words. They add verbosity to the message without giving any real
information. (<3 Emeric)
E.g.
"The reference file appears to be missing a carriage return"
Nope.
"The reference file is missing a carriage return"
Yes.
- When calling `git__throw`, please try to use more generic error
codes so we can eventually reduce the list of error codes to
something more reasonable. Feel free to add new, more generic error
codes if these are going to replace several of the old ones.
E.g.
return GIT_EREFCORRUPTED;
Can be turned into:
return git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED,
"The reference is corrupted");
Win32 critical section objects (CRITICAL_SECTION) are not kernel objects.
Only kernel objects are destroyed by using CloseHandle. Critical sections
are supposed to be deleted with the DeleteCriticalSection API
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682552(VS.85).aspx).
The section and variable names use different rules, so store them as
two different variables internally.
This will simplify the configuration-writing code as well later on,
but even with parsing, the code is simpler.
Take this opportunity to add a variable to the list directly when
parsing instead of passing through config_set.
A root commit is a commit whose branch (usually what HEAD points to)
doesn't exist (yet). This situation can happen when the commit is the
first after 1) a repository is initialized or 2) a orphan checkout has
been performed.
Take this opportunity to remove the symbolic link check, as
git_reference_resolve works on OID refs as well.

Typical use is git_reference_resolve(&ref, ref). Currently, if there is
an error, ref will point to NULL, causing the user to lose that
reference.
Always update resolved_ref instead of just on finding an OID ref,
storing the last valid reference in it.
This change helps simplify the code for allowing root commits.

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.
Removed the optional `replace` argument, we now have 4 add methods:
`git_index_add`: add or update from path
`git_index_add2`: add or update from struct
`git_index_append`: add without replacing from path
`git_index_append2`: add without replacing from struct
Yes, this breaks the bindings.
New external functions:
- git_index_unmerged_entrycount: Counts the unmerged entries in
the index
- git_index_get_unmerged: Gets an unmerged entry from the index
by name
New internal functions:
- read_unmerged: Wrapper for read_unmerged_internal
- read_unmerged_internal: Reads unmerged entries from the index
if the index has the INDEX_EXT_UNMERGED_SIG set
- unmerged_srch: Search function for unmerged vector
- unmerged_cmp: Compare function for unmerged vector
New data structures:
- git_index now contains a git_vector unmerged that stores
unmerged entries
- git_index_entry_unmerged: Representation of an unmerged file
entry. It represents all three versions of the file at the
same time, with one name, three modes and three OIDs
When in the middle of a merge, the index needs to contain several files
with the same name. git_index_insert() used to prevent this by not adding a new entry if an entry with the same name already existed.
Most tags will have a timestamp of whenever the code is running and
dealing with time and timezones is error-prone. Optimize for this case
