It was there to keep it apart from the one which read in from a file on
disk. This other indexer does not exist anymore, so there is no need for
anything other than git_indexer to refer to it.
While here, rename _add() function to _append() and _finalize() to
_commit(). The former change is cosmetic, while the latter avoids
talking about "finalizing", which OO languages use to mean something
completely different.
This reorganizes a few of the examples so that the main function
comes first with the argument parsing extracted into a helper
that can come at the end of the file (so the example focuses more
on the use of libgit2 instead of command line support). This also
creates a shared examples/common.[ch] so that useful helper funcs
can be shared across examples instead of repeated.
The user is unable to derive the number of deltas in the pack, as that
would require them to capture the stats exactly in the moment between
download and final processing, which is abstracted away in the fetch.
Capture these numbers for the user and expose them in the progress
struct. The clone and fetch examples now also present this information
to the user.
Instead of having functions with so very many parameters to pass
hunk and line data, this takes the existing git_diff_hunk struct
and extends it with more hunk data, plus adds a git_diff_line.
Those structs are used to pass back hunk and line data instead of
the old APIs that took tons of parameters.
Some work that was previously only being done for git_diff_patch
creation (scanning the diff content for exact line counts) is now
done for all callbacks, but the performance difference should not
be noticable.
This lays groundwork for separating formatting options from diff
creation options. This groups the formatting flags separately
from the diff list creation flags and reorders the options. This
also tweaks some APIs to further separate code that uses patches
from code that just looks at git_diffs.
This makes no functional change to diff but renames a couple of
the objects and splits the new git_patch (formerly git_diff_patch)
into a new header file.
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.
The text progress and update_tips callbacks are already part of the
struct, which was meant to unify the callback setup, but the download
one was left out.
Fixed the filter order to match core Git, too.
This test demonstrates an interesting behavior of core Git (which
is totally reasonable and which libgit2 matches, although mostly
by coincidence). If you use the ident filter and commit a file
with a garbage ident in it, like '$Id: this is just garbage$' and
then immediately do a 'git checkout-index' with the new file, Git
will not consider the file out of date and will not overwrite the
file with an updated $Id$. Libgit2 has the same behavior. If you
remove the file and then do a checkout-index, it will be replaced
with a filtered version that has injected the OID correctly.
Unfortunately git-core uses the term "unborn branch" and "orphan
branch" interchangeably. However, "orphan" is only really there for
the checkout command, which has the `--orphan` option so it doesn't
actually create the branch.
Branches never have parents, so the distinction of a branch with no
parents is odd to begin with. Crucially, the error messages deal with
unborn branches, so let's use that.
This fixes the way the example log program decides if a merge
commit should be shown when a pathspec is given. Also makes it
easier to use the pathspec API to just check "does a tree match
anything in the pathspec" without allocating a match list.
