For the REUC and NAME entries, we use size_t internally, and we take
size_t for the get_byindex() functions, but the entrycount() functions
strangely cast to an unsigned int instead.
We currently have gitno for talking over TCP, but this needs to know
about both plaintext and OpenSSL connections and the code has gotten
somewhat messy with ifdefs determining which version of the function
should be called.
In order to clean this up and abstract away the details of sending over
the different types of streams, we can instead use an interface and
stack stream implementations.
We may not be able to use the stackability with all streams, but we
are definitely be able to use the abstraction which is currently spread
between different bits of gitno.
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
A transaction allows you to lock multiple references and set up changes
for them before applying the changes all at once (or as close as the
backend supports).
This can be used for replication purposes, or for making sure some
operations run when the reference is locked and thus cannot be changed.
This option make it easy to ignore anything about the server we're
connecting to, which is bad security practice. This was necessary as we
didn't use to expose detailed information about the certificate, but now
that we do, we should get rid of this.
If the user wants to ignore everything, they can still provide a
callback which ignores all the information passed.
If the certificate validation fails (or always in the case of ssh),
let the user decide whether to allow the connection.
The data structure passed to the user is the native certificate
information from the underlying implementation, namely OpenSSL or
WinHTTP.
When using a bare repo with an index, libgit2 attempts to read
files from the index. It caches those files based on the path
to the file, specifically the path to the directory that contains
the file.
If there is no working directory, we use `git_path_dirname_r` to
get the path to the containing directory. However, for the
`.gitattributes` file in the root of the repository, this ends up
normalizing the containing path to `"."` instead of the empty
string and the lookup the `.gitattributes` data fails.
This adds a test of attribute lookups on bare repos and also
fixes the problem by simply rewriting `"."` to be `""`.
* Move the transport registration mechanisms into a new header under
'sys/' because this is advanced stuff.
* Remove the 'priority' argument from the registration as it adds
unnecessary complexity. (Since transports cannot decline to operate,
only the highest priority transport is ever executed.) Users who
require per-priority transports can implement that in their custom
transport themselves.
* Simplify registration further by taking a scheme (eg "http") instead
of a prefix (eg "http://").
Diff and status do not want core.safecrlf to actually raise an
error regardless of the setting, so this extends the filter API
with an additional options flags parameter and adds a flag so that
filters can be applied with GIT_FILTER_OPT_ALLOW_UNSAFE, indicating
that unsafe filter application should be downgraded from a failure
to a warning.
With the isolation of complex reads, we can now try to refresh the
on-disk file before reading a value from it.
This changes the semantics a bit, as before we could be sure that a
string we got from the configuration was valid until we wrote or
refreshed. This is no longer the case, as a read can also invalidate the
pointer.
In order to have consistent views of the config files for remotes,
submodules et al. and a configuration that represents what is currently
stored on-disk, we need a way to provide a view of the configuration
that does not change.
The goal here is to provide the snapshotting part by creating a
read-only copy of the state of the configuration at a particular point
in time, which does not change when a repository's main config changes.
The usefulness of these helpers came up for me while debugging
some of the iterator changes that I was making, so since they
have also been requested (albeit indirectly) I thought I'd include
them.
This adds an API to amend an existing commit, basically a shorthand
for creating a new commit filling in missing parameters from the
values of an existing commit. As part of this, I also added a new
"sys" API to create a commit using a callback to get the parents.
This allowed me to rewrite all the other commit creation APIs so
that temporary allocations are no longer needed.
This renames git_vector_free_all to the better git_vector_free_deep
and also contains a couple of memory leak fixes based on valgrind
checks. The fixes are specifically: failure to free global dir
path variables when not compiled with threading on and failure to
free filters from the filter registry that had not be initialized
fully.
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.
Whenever a reference is created or updated, we need to write to the
reflog regardless of whether the user gave us a message, so we shouldn't
leave that to the ref frontend, but integrate it into the backend.
This also eliminates the race between ref update and writing to the
reflog, as we protect the reflog with the ref lock.
As an additional benefit, this reflog append on the backend happens by
appending to the file instead of parsing and rewriting it.
At some moment git_config_delete_entry lost the ability to delete one entry of
a multivar configuration. The moment you had more than one fetch or push
ref spec for a remote you will not be able to save that remote anymore. The
changes in network::remote::remotes::save show that problem.
I needed to create a new git_config_delete_multivar because I was not able to
remove one or several entries of a multivar config with the current API.
Several tries modifying how git_config_set_multivar(..., NULL) behaved were
not successful.
git_config_delete_multivar is very similar to git_config_set_multivar, and
delegates into config_delete_multivar of config_file. This function search
for the cvar_t that will be deleted, storing them in a temporal array, and
rebuilding the linked list. After calling config_write to delete the entries,
the cvar_t stored in the temporal array are freed.
There is a little fix in config_write, it avoids an infinite loop when using
a regular expression (case for the multivars). This error was found by the
test network::remote::remotes::tagopt.
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.
When given an ODB from which to read objects, the indexer will attempt
to inject the missing bases at the end of the pack and update the
header and trailer to reflect the new contents.
References and their logs are logically coupled, let's make it so in
the code by moving the fs-based reflog implementation to live next to
the fs-based refs one.
As part of the change, make the function take names rather than
references, as only the names are relevant when looking up and
handling reflogs.
