The signature for the reflog is not something which changes
dynamically. Almost all uses will be NULL, since we want for the
repository's default identity to be used, making it noise.
In order to allow for changing the identity, we instead provide
git_repository_set_ident() and git_repository_ident() which allow a user
to override the choice of signature.
This makes them show up in the reference, even if the text itself isn't
the most descriptive.
These have been found with
grep -Przon '\n\ntypedef struct.*?\{' -- include
grep -Przon '\n\ntypedef enum.*?\{' -- include
Change the name to _matching() intead of _if(), and force _set_target()
to be a conditional update. If the user doesn't care about the old
value, they should use git_reference_create().
Any well-behaved program should write a descriptive message to the
reflog whenever it updates a reference. Let's make this more prominent
by removing the version without the reflog parameters.
The frontend used to look at the file directly, but that's obviously not
the right thing to do. Expose it on the backend and use that function
instead.
Before these changes, looking up a reference would return the
same precomposed or decomposed form of the reference name that
was used to look it up, so on MacOS which ignores the difference
between the two, a single reference could be looked up either way
and git_reference_name would return the form of the name that was
used to look it up! This change makes lookup always return the
precomposed name if core.precomposeunicode is set regardless of
which version was used to look it up. The reference iterator was
already returning the precomposed form from earlier work.
This also updates the CMakeLists.txt rules for enabling iconv
usage because the clar tests for this code were actually not being
activated properly with the old version.
Finally, this moves git_repository_reset_filesystem from include/
git2/repository.h to include/git2/sys/repository.h since it is not
really a function that normal library users should have to think
about very often.
Fixed a few header @param and @return typos with the help of -Wdocumentation in Xcode.
The following warnings have not been fixed:
common.h:213 - Not sure how the documentation format is for '...'
notes.h:102 - Correct @param name but empty text
notes.h:111 - Correct @param name but empty text
pack.h:140 - @return missing text
pack.h:148 - @return missing text
Nobody should ever be using anything other than ALL at this level, so
remove the option altogether.
As part of this, git_reference_foreach_glob is now implemented in the
frontend using an iterator. Backends will later regain the ability of
doing the glob filtering in the backend.
