The regcomp function returns a non-zero value if compilation of
a regular expression fails. In most places we only check for
negative values, but positive values indicate an error, as well.
Fix this tree-wide, fixing a segmentation fault when calling
git_config_iterator_glob_new with an invalid regexp.
When no reference names could be found we did error out when trying to describe
a commit. This is wrong, though, when the option to fall back to a commit's
object ID is set.
When there is a tag, we must make sure that we get all referenced
objects from this tag as well. This failing test shows that e.g. when
there is a tagged tree, we insert the top tree but do not descend, thus
causing the clone to have broken links.
Since the Linux platform has a case sensitive file system, the header name should be lower case for cross compiling purposes. (On Linux, the mingw header is called ```windows.h```).
This was but down to 5 when GitHub made a change to their server which
made them stop honouring the include-tag request.
This has recently been corrected, so we can bring it back up to six.
Currently git_submodule_sync writes the submodule's URL to the
key 'branch.<REMOTE_NAME>.remote' while the reference
implementation of `git submodule sync` writes to
'remote.<REMOTE_NAME>.url', which is the intended behavior
according to git-submodule(1).
When we rename a reference, we want the old and new ids to be the same
one (as we did not change it). The normal code path looks up the old id
from the current value of the brtanch, but by the time we look it up, it
does not exist anymore and thus we write a zero id.
Pass the old id explicitly instead.
Clear the error message on git_libgit2_shutdown for all versions of
the library (no threads and Win32 threads). Drop the giterr_clear
in clar, as that shouldn't be necessary.
This changes the get_entry() method to return a refcounted version of
the config entry, which you have to free when you're done.
This allows us to avoid freeing the memory in which the entry is stored
on a refresh, which may happen at any time for a live config.
For this reason, get_string() has been forbidden on live configs and a
new function get_string_buf() has been added, which stores the string in
a git_buf which the user then owns.
The functions which parse the string value takea advantage of the
borrowing to parse safely and then release the entry.
We want to use the "checkout: moving from ..." message in order to let
git know when a change of branch has happened. Make the convenience
functions for this goal write this message.
