Having this cache and giving them out goes against our multithreading
guarantees and it makes it impossible to use submodules in a
multi-threaded environment, as any thread can ask for a refresh which
may reallocate some string in the submodule struct which we've accessed
in a different one via a getter.
This makes the submodules behave more like remotes, where each object is
created upon request and not shared except explicitly by the user. This
means that some tests won't pass yet, as they assume they can affect the
submodule objects in the cache and that will affect later operations.
When ticking over one second, it can happen that the actual time ticks
over the same second between the time that we undermine our own race
protections and the time in which we perform the index update. Such
timing would make the time in the entries match the index' timestamp and
we have not gained anything.
Ticking over five seconds makes it so that if real-time rolls over that
second, our index is still ahead. This is still suboptimal as we're
dealing with timing, but five seconds should be long enough for any
reasonable test runner to finish the tests.
These tests want to test that we don't recalculate entries which match
the index already. This is however something we force when truncating
racily-clean entries.
Tick the index forward as we know that we don't perform the
modifications which the racily-clean code is trying to avoid.
In order to avoid racy-git, we zero out the file size for entries with
the same timestamp as the index (or during the initial checkout). This
is the case in a couple of crlf tests, as the code is fast enough to do
everything in the same second.
As we know that we do not perform the modification just after writing
out the index, which is what this is designed to work around, tick the
mtime of the index file such that it doesn't agree with the files
anymore, and we do not zero out these entries.
We update the index and then immediately change the contents of the
file. This makes the diff think there are no changes, as the timestamp
of the file agrees with the cached data. This is however a bug, as the
file has obviously changed contents.
The test is a bit fragile, as it assumes that the index writing and the
following modification of the file happen in the same second, but it's
enough to show the issue.
Introduce a new binary diff callback to provide the actual binary
delta contents to callers. Create this data from the diff contents
(instead of directly from the ODB) to support binary diffs including
the workdir, not just things coming out of the ODB.
Some tools create multiple author fields. git is rather lax when parsing
them, although fsck does complain about them. This means that they exist
in the wild.
As it's not too taxing to check for them, and there shouldn't be a
noticeable slowdown when dealing with correct commits, add logic to skip
over these extra fields when parsing the commit.
When the callback returns an error, we should stop immediately. This
broke when trying to make sure we pass specific errors up the chain.
This broke cancelling out of the loose backend's foreach.
A remote's URLs are now modified according to the url.*.insteadOf
and url.*.pushInsteadOf configurations. This allows a user to
replace URL prefixes by setting the corresponding keys. E.g.
"url.foo.insteadOf = bar" would replace the prefix "bar" with the
new prefix "foo".
Treat input bytes as unsigned before doing arithmetic on them,
lest we look at some non-ASCII byte (like a UTF-8 character) as a
negative value and perform the comparison incorrectly.
We do not error on "merge conflicts"; on the contrary, merge conflicts
are a normal part of merging. We only error on "checkout conflicts",
where a change exists in the index or the working directory that would
otherwise be overwritten by performing the checkout.
This *may* happen during merge (after the production of the new index
that we're going to checkout) but it could happen during any checkout.
When confronted with a conflict in the index, `git_index_add_all`
should stage the working directory copy. If there is no file in the
working directory, the conflict should simply be removed.
It's not always obvious the mapping between stage level and
conflict-ness. More importantly, this can lead otherwise sane
people to write constructs like `if (!git_index_entry_stage(entry))`,
which (while technically correct) is unreadable.
Provide a nice method to help avoid such messy thinking.
Since a diff entry only concerns a single entry, zero the information
for the index side of a conflict. (The index entry would otherwise
erroneously include the lowest-stage index entry - generally the
ancestor of a conflict.)
Test that during status, the index side of the conflict is empty.
When diffing against an index, return a new `GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED`
delta type for items that are conflicted. For a single file path,
only one delta will be produced (despite the fact that there are
multiple entries in the index).
Index iterators now have the (optional) ability to return conflicts
in the index. Prior to this change, they would be omitted, and callers
(like diff) would omit conflicted index entries entirely.
