Edward Thomson a24e656a 2021-09-04T10:16:41 common: support custom repository extensions Allow users to specify additional repository extensions that they want to support. For example, callers can specify that they support `preciousObjects` and then may open repositories that support `extensions.preciousObjects`. Similarly, callers may opt out of supporting extensions that the library itself supports.

Tony De La Nuez cd460522 2020-04-20T22:16:52 odb: Implement option for overriding of default odb backend priority Introduce GIT_OPT_SET_ODB_LOOSE_PRIORITY and GIT_OPT_SET_ODB_PACKED_PRIORITY to allow overriding the default priority values for the default ODB backends. Libgit2 has historically assumed that most objects for long- running operations will be packed, therefore GIT_LOOSE_PRIORITY is set to 1 by default, and GIT_PACKED_PRIORITY to 2. When a client allows libgit2 to set the default backends, they can specify an override for the two priority values in order to change the order in which each ODB backend is accessed.
punkymaniac 75defb75 2021-05-18T10:51:20 Add documentation about GIT_OPT_GET_USER_AGENT
lhchavez eab2b044 2020-06-26T16:10:30 Review feedback * Change the default of the file limit to 0 (unlimited). * Changed the heuristic to close files to be the file that contains the least-recently-used window such that the window is the most-recently-used in the file, and the file does not have in-use windows. * Parameterized the filelimit test to check for a limit of 1 and 100 open windows.
lhchavez 9679df57 2020-02-08T20:47:24 mwindow: set limit on number of open files There are some cases in which repositories accrue a large number of packfiles. The existing mwindow limit applies only to the total size of mmap'd files, not on their number. This leads to a situation in which having lots of small packfiles could exhaust the allowed number of open files, particularly on macOS, where the default ulimit is very low (256). This change adds a new configuration parameter (GIT_OPT_SET_MWINDOW_FILE_LIMIT) that sets the maximum number of open packfiles, with a default of 128. This is low enough so that even macOS users should not hit it during normal use. Based on PR #5386, originally written by @josharian. Fixes: #2758
Edward Thomson 4cae9e71 2020-01-18T18:02:08 git_libgit2_version: return an int Stop returning a void for functions, future-proofing them to allow them to fail.
Edward Thomson 7372573b 2019-10-25T12:22:10 httpclient: support expect/continue Allow users to opt-in to expect/continue handling when sending a POST and we're authenticated with a "connection-based" authentication mechanism like NTLM or Negotiate. If the response is a 100, return to the caller (to allow them to post their body). If the response is *not* a 100, buffer the response for the caller. HTTP expect/continue is generally safe, but some legacy servers have not implemented it correctly. Require it to be opt-in.
Edward Thomson 247e6d90 2019-02-18T07:22:20 Remove public 'inttypes.h' header Remove an `inttypes.h` header that is too large in scope, and far too public. For Visual Studio 2012 and earlier (ie, `_MSC_VER < 1800`), we do need to include `stdint.h` in our public headers, for types like `uint32_t`. Internally, we also need to define `PRId64` as a printf formatting string when it is not available.
Dhruva Krishnamurthy 004a3398 2019-01-28T18:31:21 Allow bypassing check '.keep' files using libgit2 option 'GIT_OPT_IGNORE_PACK_KEEP_FILE_CHECK'
Edward Thomson 44827b67 2019-01-20T10:36:41 deprecation: add `used` attribute Recent GCC enables `-Wunused-const-variables`, which makes output quite noisy. Disable unused warnings for our deprecated variables.
Edward Thomson 22d2062d 2019-01-09T18:25:10 Introduce GIT_CALLBACK macro to enforce cdecl Since we now always build the library with cdecl calling conventions, our callbacks should be decorated as such so that users will not be able to provide callbacks defined with other calling conventions. The `GIT_CALLBACK` macro will inject the `__cdecl` attribute as appropriate.
Edward Thomson a74dd39b 2019-01-09T12:33:47 Use cdecl calling conventions on Win32 The recommendation from engineers within Microsoft is that libraries should have a calling convention specified in the public API, and that calling convention should be cdecl unless there are strong reasons to use a different calling convention. We previously offered end-users the choice between cdecl and stdcall calling conventions. We did this for presumed wider compatibility: most Windows applications will use cdecl, but C# and PInvoke default to stdcall for WINAPI compatibility. (On Windows, the standard library functions are are stdcall so PInvoke also defaults to stdcall.) However, C# and PInvoke can easily call cdecl APIs by specifying an annotation. Thus, we will explicitly declare ourselves cdecl and remove the option to build as stdcall.
Edward Thomson 19faf7c5 2018-11-14T23:35:48 object_type: update public API to use git_object_t git_object_t is the future; update the public API to use it. This will also ensure that we can build our tests which make use of the old API without modification (and without compiler warnings).

Nelson Elhage efe3f37d 2018-07-12T04:20:15 Add a git_libgit2_opts option to set the max indexer object count
Edward Thomson bfa1f022 2018-06-22T19:17:08 settings: optional unsaved index safety Add the `GIT_OPT_ENABLE_UNSAVED_INDEX_SAFETY` option, which will cause commands that reload the on-disk index to fail if the current `git_index` has changed that have not been saved. This will prevent users from - for example - adding a file to the index then calling a function like `git_checkout` and having that file be silently removed from the index since it was re-read from disk. Now calls that would re-read the index will fail if the index is "dirty", meaning changes have been made to it but have not been written. Users can either `git_index_read` to discard those changes explicitly, or `git_index_write` to write them.

Patrick Steinhardt 74b7ddbf 2018-03-16T10:14:50 settings: allow swapping out memory allocator Tie in the newly created infrastructure for swapping out memory allocators into our settings code. A user can now simply use the new option "GIT_OPT_SET_ALLOCATOR" with `git_libgit2_opts`, passing in an already initialized allocator structure as vararg.
Patrick Steinhardt 6c23704d 2017-06-08T21:40:18 settings: rename `GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYNCHRONOUS_OBJECT_CREATION` Initially, the setting has been solely used to enable the use of `fsync()` when creating objects. Since then, the use has been extended to also cover references and index files. As the option is not yet part of any release, we can still correct this by renaming the option to something more sensible, indicating not only correlation to objects. This commit renames the option to `GIT_OPT_ENABLE_FSYNC_GITDIR`. We also move the variable from the object to repository source code.
Patrick Steinhardt 35079f50 2017-04-21T07:31:56 odb: add option to turn off hash verification Verifying hashsums of objects we are reading from the ODB may be costly as we have to perform an additional hashsum calculation on the object. Especially when reading large objects, the penalty can be as high as 35%, as can be seen when executing the equivalent of `git cat-file` with and without verification enabled. To mitigate for this, we add a global option for libgit2 which enables the developer to turn off the verification, e.g. when he can be reasonably sure that the objects on disk won't be corrupted.

Edward Thomson 93392cdd 2016-10-09T11:27:56 docs: GIT_OPT_ENABLE_STRICT_OBJECT_CREATION is enabled We changed the defaults on strict object creation - it is enabled by default. Update the documentation to reflect that.
Richard Ipsum 452bf57c 2016-08-27T13:42:53 Make symbolic ref target validation optional Introduce GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYMBOLIC_REF_TARGET_VALIDATION option. Setting this option to 0 allows validation of a symbolic ref's target to be bypassed. This option is enabled by default. This mechanism is added primarily to address a discrepancy between git behaviour and libgit2 behaviour, whereby the former allows the symbolic ref target to carry an arbitrary string and the latter does not, so: $ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/foo bar $ cat .git/refs/heads/foo ref: bar where as attempting the same via libgit2 raises an error: The given reference name 'bar' is not valid this mechanism also allows those that might want to make use of git's more lenient treatment of symbolic ref targets to do so.

Carlos Martín Nieto 98444536 2016-03-31T11:35:53 Add a no-op size_t typedef for the doc parser Clang's documentation parser, which we use in our documentation system does not report any comments for functions which use size_t as a type. The root cause is buried somewhere in libclang but we can work around it by defining the type ourselves. This typedef makes sure that libclang sees it and that we do not change its size.

Russell Belfer 41954a49 2013-03-18T14:19:35 Switch search paths to classic delimited strings This switches the APIs for setting and getting the global/system search paths from using git_strarray to using a simple string with GIT_PATH_LIST_SEPARATOR delimited paths, just as the environment PATH variable would contain. This makes it simpler to get and set the value. I also added code to expand "$PATH" when setting a new value to embed the old value of the path. This means that I no longer require separate actions to PREPEND to the value.
Russell Belfer 5540d947 2013-03-15T16:39:00 Implement global/system file search paths The goal of this work is to expose the search logic for "global", "system", and "xdg" files through the git_libgit2_opts() interface. Behind the scenes, I changed the logic for finding files to have a notion of a git_strarray that represents a search path and to store a separate search path for each of the three tiers of config file. For each tier, I implemented a function to initialize it to default values (generally based on environment variables), and then general interfaces to get it, set it, reset it, and prepend new directories to it. Next, I exposed these interfaces through the git_libgit2_opts interface, reusing the GIT_CONFIG_LEVEL_SYSTEM, etc., constants for the user to control which search path they were modifying. There are alternative designs for the opts interface / argument ordering, so I'm putting this phase out for discussion. Additionally, I ended up doing a little bit of clean up regarding attr.h and attr_file.h, adding a new attrcache.h so the other two files wouldn't have to be included in so many places.

Vicent Martí 79fdde49 2012-05-14T22:15:53 Revert "Specifiy dllimport to MSVC if we're not building libgit2.dll" This reverts commit 1093e2de22f6ca245b09d758a3510899a8362048.
Sascha Cunz 1093e2de 2012-05-11T04:25:23 Specifiy dllimport to MSVC if we're not building libgit2.dll Building a "shared object" (DLL) in Windows includes 2 steps: - specify __declspec(dllexport) when building the library itself. MSVC will disallow itself from optimizing these symbols out and reference them in the PE's Exports-Table. Further, a static link library will be generated. This library contains the symbols which are exported via the declsepc above. The __declspec(dllexport) becomes part of the symbol-signature (like parameter types in C++ are 'mangled' into the symbol name, the export specifier is mingled with the name) - specify __declspec(dllimport) when using the library. This again mingles the declspec into the name and declares the function / variable with external linkage. cmake automatically adds -Dgit2_EXPORTS to the compiler arguments when compiling the libgit2 project. The 'git2' is the name specified via PROJECT() in CMakeLists.txt.
