For urls where we do not specify a username, we must handle the case
where the ssh transport asks us for the username.
Test also that switching username fails.
In order to know which authentication methods are supported/allowed by
the ssh server, we need to send a NONE auth request, which needs a
username associated with it.
Most ssh server implementations do not allow switching the username
between authentication attempts, which means we cannot use a dummy
username and then switch. There are two ways around this.
The first is to use a different connection, which an earlier commit
implements, but this increases how long it takes to get set up, and
without knowing the right username, we cannot guarantee that the
list we get in response is the right one.
The second is what's implemented here: if there is no username specified
in the url, ask for it first. We can then ask for the list of auth
methods and use the user's credentials in the same connection.
Before calling the credentials callback, ask the sever which
authentication methods it supports and report that to the user, instead
of simply reporting everything that the transport supports.
In case of an error, we do fall back to listing all of them.
Instead of using a sentinel empty value to detect the last commit, let's
check for when we get a NULL from popping the stack, which lets us know
when we're done.
The current code causes us to read uninitialized data, although only on
RHEL/CentOS 6 in release mode. This is a readability win overall.
Since the SOVERSION doesn't need to follow the library's version and
simply needs to be monotonically increasing whenever we release
something that breaks the ABI, we can set some number and allow multiple
versions of the library to be installed side-by-side.
We start here with the minor version as that's what we release for now,
and it allows to backport this change to earlier versions.
A symref inside the namespace gets renamed, we should make it point to
the target's new name.
This is for the origin/HEAD -> origin/master type of situations.
There is no reason why we need to use a callback here. A string array
fits better with the usage, as this is not an event and we don't need
anything from the user.
We must make sure that the name pointer remains valid, so make sure to
allocate the new one before freeing the old one and swap them so the
user never sees an invalid pointer.
We don't allow renames of anonymous remotes, so there's no need to
handle them.
A remote is always associated with a repository, so there's no need to
check for that.
Tighten up which references we consider for renaming so we don't try to
rename unrelated ones and end up with unexplained references.
If there is a reference on the target namespace, git overwrites it, so
let's do the same.
Whe already worked out the kinks with the function used in the local
transport. Expose it and make use of it in the local clone method
instead of trying to work it out again.
The documentation has shown this as a single enum for a long time. These
should in fact be two enums. One with the bits for the flags and another
with the bits for the extended flags.
When removing the remote-tracking branches, build up the list and remove
in two steps, working around an issue with the iterator. Removing while
we're iterating over the refs can cause us to miss references.
