Vicent Marti 1795f879 2010-11-05T03:20:17 Improve error handling All initialization functions now return error codes instead of pointers. Error codes are now properly propagated on most functions. Several new and more specific error codes have been added in common.h Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 58519018 2010-10-28T02:07:18 Fix internal memory management on the library String mememory is now managed in a much more sane manner. Fixes include: - git_person email and name is no longer limited to 64 characters - git_tree_entry filename is no longer limited to 255 characters - raw objects are properly opened & closed the minimum amount of times required for parsing - unit tests no longer leak - removed 5 other misc memory leaks as reported by Valgrind - tree writeback no longer segfaults on rare ocassions The git_person struct is no longer public. It is now managed by the library, and getter methods are in place to access its internal attributes. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Vicent Marti f49a2e49 2010-09-19T03:21:06 Give object structures more descriptive names The 'git_obj' structure is now called 'git_rawobj', since it represents a raw object read from the ODB. The 'git_repository_object' structure is now called 'git_object', since it's the base object class for all objects. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 3315782c 2010-08-08T14:12:17 Redesigned the walking/object lookup interface The old 'git_revpool' object has been removed and split into two distinct objects with separate functionality, in order to have separate methods for object management and object walking. * A new object 'git_repository' does the high-level management of a repository's objects (commits, trees, tags, etc) on top of a 'git_odb'. Eventually, it will also manage other repository attributes (e.g. tag resolution, references, etc). See: src/git/repository.h * A new external method 'git_repository_lookup(repo, oid, type)' has been added to the 'git_repository' API. All object lookups (git_XXX_lookup()) are now wrappers to this method, and duplicated code has been removed. The method does automatic type checking and returns a generic 'git_revpool_object' that can be cast to any specific object. See: src/git/repository.h * The external methods for object parsing of repository objects (git_XXX_parse()) have been removed. Loading objects from the repository is now managed through the 'lookup' functions. These objects are loaded with minimal information, and the relevant parsing is done automatically when the user requests any of the parsed attributes through accessor methods. An attribute has been added to 'git_repository' in order to force the parsing of all the repository objects immediately after lookup. See: src/git/commit.h See: src/git/tag.h See: src/git/tree.h * The previous walking functionality of the revpool is now found in 'git_revwalk', which does the actual revision walking on a repository; the attributes when walking through commits in a database have been decoupled from the actual commit objects. This increases performance when accessing commits during the walk and allows to have several 'git_revwalk' instances working at the same time on top of the same repository, without having to load commits in memory several times. See: src/git/revwalk.h * The old 'git_revpool_table' has been renamed to 'git_hashtable' and now works as a generic hashtable with support for any kind of object and custom hash functions. See: src/hashtable.h * All the relevant unit tests have been updated, renamed and grouped accordingly. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 364788e1 2010-08-07T00:59:58 Refactor parsing methods The 'parse_oid' and 'parse_person' methods which were used by the commit parser are now global so they can be used when parsing other objects. The 'git_commit_person' struct has been changed to a generic 'git_person'. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Shawn O. Pearce 7dd8a9f7 2008-12-30T23:26:38 Set GIT_EOSERR when the OS errno should be consulted This error code indicates the OS error code has a better value describing the last error, as it is likely a network or local file IO problem identified by a C library function call.

Shawn O. Pearce 64a47c01 2008-12-30T23:21:36 Wrap malloc and friends and report out of memory as GIT_ENOMEM We now forbid direct use of malloc, strdup or calloc within the library and instead use wrapper functions git__malloc, etc. to invoke the underlying library malloc and set git_errno to a no memory error code if the allocation fails. In the future once we have pack objects in memory we are likely to enhance these routines with garbage collection logic to purge cached pack data when allocations fail. Because the size of the function will grow somewhat large, we don't want to mark them for inline as gcc tends to aggressively inline, creating larger than expected executables.

Andreas Ericsson ec250c6e 2008-11-23T22:37:55 Remove config.h and make fileops an internal API Since it doesn't make sense to make the disk access stuff portable *AND* public (that's a job for each application imo), we can take a shortcut and just support unixy stuff for now and get away with coding most of it as macros. Since we go with an internal API for starters and only provide higher-level API's to the libgit users, we'll be ok with this approach.

Andreas Ericsson c6ebb4a9 2008-11-22T15:17:17 Remove license top-comment from public header files Since it's being added when we install the headers anyway, we might as well get rid of it. If anything, we should point coders to the COPYING file in the project's root directory instead of duplicating the same (large-ish) text everywhere.

Andreas Ericsson d4043ee9 2008-11-18T01:18:52 Move public headers to src/git It's arguably smoother to keep them close to the source, as that's where one's working when modifying them. More importantly, though, is the ability to use private headers in the src/ dir that simply include "git/$samename.h" to get to the public API at the same time.
