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.
This namespace is about behaving like git's branch command, so let's do
exactly that instead of taking a reflog message.
This override is still available via the reference namespace.
The signature for the reflog is not something which changes
dynamically. Almost all uses will be NULL, since we want for the
repository's default identity to be used, making it noise.
In order to allow for changing the identity, we instead provide
git_repository_set_ident() and git_repository_ident() which allow a user
to override the choice of signature.
When the repository does not contain an index, emulate git's behavior
and upgrade to `SAFE_CREATE`. This allows us to check out repositories
created with `git clone --no-checkout`.
A repository can have multiple "reserved names" now, not just
a single "short name" for the repository folder itself. Refactor
to include a git_repository__reserved_names that returns all the
reserved names for a repository.
git_index_add_frombuffer enables now to store a memory buffer in the odb
and to store an entry in the index directly if the index is attached to a
repository.
Introduce GITTEST_INVASIVE_FS_STRUCTURE for things that are invasive
to your filesystem structure (like creating folders at your filesystem
root) and GITTEST_INVASIVE_FS_SIZE for things that write lots of data.
Always lock the index when we begin the merge, before we write
any of the metdata files. This prevents a race where another
client may run a commit after we have written the MERGE_HEAD but
before we have updated the index, which will produce a merge
commit that is treesame to one parent. The merge will finish and
update the index and the resultant commit would not be a merge at
all.
Introduce `git_indexwriter`, to allow us to lock the index while
performing additional operations, then complete the write (or abort,
unlocking the index).
Correct the merge failed cleanup test. Merge data should not be
cleaned up on conflicts, only on actual failure. And ORIG_HEAD
should not be removed at all.
Make our overflow checking look more like gcc and clang's, so that
we can substitute it out with the compiler instrinsics on platforms
that support it. This means dropping the ability to pass `NULL` as
an out parameter.
As a result, the macros also get updated to reflect this as well.
It fails at least on my computer, though it may depend on some unpredictable
factors (say, will realloc() extend the memory segment in place, or it will
allocate new memory).
`p_stat` calls `git_win32_path_from_utf8`, which canonicalizes the
path. Do not further try to modify the path, else we trim the
trailing slash from a root directory and try to access `C:` instead
of `C:/`.
Test to ensure that we can create a repository at the filesystem
root. Introduces a new test environment variable,
`GITTEST_INVASIVE_FILESYSTEM` for tests that do terrible things like
escaping the clar sandbox and writing to the root directory. It is
expected that the CI builds will enable this but that normal people
would not want this.
The .gitattributes cache should not reload .gitattributes in the
middle of checking out, only between checkout operations. Otherwise,
we'll spend all our time stat'ing and read'ing the gitattributes.
The structinit tests don't make sense unless structure padding
is uniformly initialized, which is unlikely to happen on release
builds. Only enable them for DEBUG builds. Further, rename them
to core::structinit.
On case insensitive filesystems, we may have files in the working
directory that case fold to a name we want to write. Remove those
files (by default) so that we will not end up with a filename that
has the unexpected case.
The documentation for `git_path_join_unrooted` states that the base
length will be returned, so that consumers like checkout know where
to start creating directories instead of always creating directories
at the directory root.
The implementation of the hashsig API disallows computing a signature on
small files containing only a few lines. This new flag disables this
behavior.
git_diff_find_similar() sets this flag by default which means that rename
/ copy detection of small files will now work. This in turn affects the
behavior of the git_status and git_blame APIs which will now detect rename
of small files assuming the right options are passed.
Remove the hook symlink from the test resources, so that we can
have a source tree that is easy to zip up and copy around on systems
that don't support symlinks. Create it dynamically at test execution
instead.
On a case-insensitive filesystem, we need to deal with case-changing
renames (eg, foo -> FOO) by removing the old and adding the new,
exactly as if we were on a case-sensitive filesystem.
Update the `checkout::tree::can_cancel_checkout_from_notify` test, now
that notifications are always sent case sensitively.
This introduces the functionality of submodule update in
'git_submodule_do_update'. The existing 'git_submodule_update' function is
renamed to 'git_submodule_update_strategy'. The 'git_submodule_update'
function now refers to functionality similar to `git submodule update`,
while `git_submodule_update_strategy` is used to get the configured value
of submodule.<name>.update.
Path validation may be influenced by `core.protectHFS` and
`core.protectNTFS` configuration settings, thus treebuilders
can take a repository to influence their configuration.
HFS filesystems ignore some characters like U+200C. When these
characters are included in a path, they will be ignored for the
purposes of comparison with other paths. Thus, if you have a ".git"
folder, a folder of ".git<U+200C>" will also match. Protect our
".git" folder by ensuring that ".git<U+200C>" and friends do not match it.
Disallow:
1. paths with trailing dot
2. paths with trailing space
3. paths with trailing colon
4. paths that are 8.3 short names of .git folders ("GIT~1")
5. paths that are reserved path names (COM1, LPT1, etc).
6. paths with reserved DOS characters (colons, asterisks, etc)
These paths would (without \\?\ syntax) be elided to other paths - for
example, ".git." would be written as ".git". As a result, writing these
paths literally (using \\?\ syntax) makes them hard to operate with from
the shell, Windows Explorer or other tools. Disallow these.
When turning UTF-8 paths into UCS-2 paths for Windows, always use
the \\?\-prefixed paths. Because this bypasses the system's
path canonicalization, handle the canonicalization functions ourselves.
We must:
1. always use a backslash as a directory separator
2. only use a single backslash between directories
3. not rely on the system to translate "." and ".." in paths
4. remove trailing backslashes, except at the drive root (C:\)
We do not currently generate any messages when we're counting the
objects, as might be expected from a local upload-pack. Assert that we
do call the function when working.
This option does not get persisted to disk, which makes it different
from the rest of the setters. Remove it until we go all the way.
We still respect the configuration option, and it's still possible to
perform a one-time prune by calling the function.
This is hiding a bug in the prune code, whereby we prune references we
shouldn't but don't notice it in the code afterwards because
update_tips() recreates them.
This means that we do perform changes to the references (and get rid of
the reflogs) when we shouldn't.
Given
top
!top/foo
in an ignore file, we should not unignore top/foo. This is an
implementation detail of the git code leaking, but that's the behaviour
we should show.
A negation rule can only negate an exact rule it has seen before.
There are some combination of objects and target types which we know
cannot be fulfilled. Return EINVALIDSPEC for those to signify that there
is a mismatch in the user-provided data and what the object model is
capable of satisfying.
If we start at a tag and in the course of peeling find out that we
cannot reach a particular type, we return EPEEL.
This is a contract that we made in the library and that we need to uphold. The
contents of a blob can never be NULL because several parts of the library (including
the filter and attributes code) expect `git_blob_rawcontent` to always return a
valid pointer.
