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.

Russell Belfer 14a513e0 2012-04-13T15:00:29 Add support for pathspec to diff and status This adds preliminary support for pathspecs to diff and status. The implementation is not very optimized (it still looks at every single file and evaluated the the pathspec match against them), but it works.

Jakob Pfender ee4912bf 2011-06-07T11:15:23 Revert "common: Include stat.h in include/git2/common.h instead of src/common.h" This reverts commit df1c98ab6d6171ed63729195bd190b54b67fe530. As 8a27b6b reverts the exposition of struct stat to the external API, we do not need - indeed, do not want - struct stat to be in the outer include layer.
Jakob Pfender cbf4f9f4 2011-05-25T16:31:14 common: Include stat.h in include/git2/common.h instead of src/common.h 00582bcb introduced a change to git_blob_create_fromfile() that required the caller to pass a stat struct. This means that we need to include stat.h higher in the hierarchy of includes.

kelly.leahy ab86f159 2011-05-09T23:39:32 Fix issue #79 - git_lasterror() isn't appearing in git2.dll in windows. The GIT_EXPORT macro is used to declare a function to be externally accessible to other libraries. This commit uses GIT_EXPORT to declare the git_lasterror() function as externally exported. I verified with depends.exe that the function is available to external callers (i.e. in the exports table of the PE file).
Vicent Marti 5eb0fab8 2011-05-05T01:49:27 errors: Update external API with new `git_lasterror`
Vicent Marti fa59f18d 2011-05-09T20:54:04 Change error handling mechanism once again Ok, this is the real deal. Hopefully. Here's how it's going to work: - One main method, called `git__throw`, that sets the error code and error message when an error happens. This method must be called in every single place where an error code was being returned previously, setting an error message instead. Example, instead of: return GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED; Use: return git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED, "The object is missing a finalizing line feed"); And instead of: [...] { error = GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED; goto cleanup; } Use: [...] { error = git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED, "What an error!"); goto cleanup; } The **only** exception to this are the allocation methods, which return NULL on failure but already set the message manually. /* only place where an error code can be returned directly, because the error message has already been set by the wrapper */ if (foo == NULL) return GIT_ENOMEM; - One secondary method, called `git__rethrow`, which can be used to fine-grain an error message and build an error stack. Example, instead of: if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS) return error; You can now do: if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS) return git__rethrow(error, "Failed to do a major operation"); The return of the `git_lasterror` method will be a string in the shape of: "Failed to do a major operation. (Failed to do an internal operation)" E.g. "Failed to open the index. (Not enough permissions to access '/path/to/index')." NOTE: do not abuse this method. Try to write all `git__throw` messages in a descriptive manner, to avoid having to rethrow them to clarify their meaning. This method should only be used in the places where the original error message set by a subroutine is not specific enough. It is encouraged to continue using this style as much possible to enforce error propagation: if ((error = foobar(baz)) < GIT_SUCCESS) return error; /* `foobar` has set an error message, and we are just propagating it */ The error handling revamp will take place in two phases: - Phase 1: Replace all pieces of code that return direct error codes with calls to `git__throw`. This can be done semi-automatically using `ack` to locate all the error codes that must be replaced. - Phase 2: Add some `git__rethrow` calls in those cases where the original error messages are not specific enough. Phase 1 is the main goal. A minor libgit2 release will be shipped once Phase 1 is ready, and the work will start on gradually improving the error handling mechanism by refining specific error messages. OTHER NOTES: - When writing error messages, please refrain from using weasel words. They add verbosity to the message without giving any real information. (<3 Emeric) E.g. "The reference file appears to be missing a carriage return" Nope. "The reference file is missing a carriage return" Yes. - When calling `git__throw`, please try to use more generic error codes so we can eventually reduce the list of error codes to something more reasonable. Feel free to add new, more generic error codes if these are going to replace several of the old ones. E.g. return GIT_EREFCORRUPTED; Can be turned into: return git__throw(GIT_EOBJCORRUPTED, "The reference is corrupted");

Vicent Marti 72a3fe42 2011-03-18T19:38:49 I broke your bindings Hey. Apologies in advance -- I broke your bindings. This is a major commit that includes a long-overdue redesign of the whole object-database structure. This is expected to be the last major external API redesign of the library until the first non-alpha release. Please get your bindings up to date with these changes. They will be included in the next minor release. Sorry again! Major features include: - Real caching and refcounting on parsed objects - Real caching and refcounting on objects read from the ODB - Streaming writes & reads from the ODB - Single-method writes for all object types - The external API is now partially thread-safe The speed increases are significant in all aspects, specially when reading an object several times from the ODB (revwalking) and when writing big objects to the ODB. Here's a full changelog for the external API: blob.h ------ - Remove `git_blob_new` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent_fromfile` - Rename `git_blob_writefile` -> `git_blob_create_fromfile` - Change `git_blob_create_fromfile`: The `path` argument is now relative to the repository's working dir - Add `git_blob_create_frombuffer` commit.h -------- - Remove `git_commit_new` - Remove `git_commit_add_parent` - Remove `git_commit_set_message` - Remove `git_commit_set_committer` - Remove `git_commit_set_author` - Remove `git_commit_set_tree` - Add `git_commit_create` - Add `git_commit_create_v` - Add `git_commit_create_o` - Add `git_commit_create_ov` tag.h ----- - Remove `git_tag_new` - Remove `git_tag_set_target` - Remove `git_tag_set_name` - Remove `git_tag_set_tagger` - Remove `git_tag_set_message` - Add `git_tag_create` - Add `git_tag_create_o` tree.h ------ - Change `git_tree_entry_2object`: New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)` - Remove `git_tree_new` - Remove `git_tree_add_entry` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byindex` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byname` - Remove `git_tree_clearentries` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_id` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_name` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_attributes` object.h ------------ - Remove `git_object_new - Remove `git_object_write` - Change `git_object_close`: This method is now *mandatory*. Not closing an object causes a memory leak. odb.h ----- - Remove type `git_rawobj` - Remove `git_rawobj_close` - Rename `git_rawobj_hash` -> `git_odb_hash` - Change `git_odb_hash`: New signature is `(git_oid *id, const void *data, size_t len, git_otype type)` - Add type `git_odb_object` - Add `git_odb_object_close` - Change `git_odb_read`: New signature is `(git_odb_object **out, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Change `git_odb_read_header`: New signature is `(size_t *len_p, git_otype *type_p, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Remove `git_odb_write` - Add `git_odb_open_wstream` - Add `git_odb_open_rstream` odb_backend.h ------------- - Change type `git_odb_backend`: New internal signatures are as follows int (* read)(void **, size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* read_header)(size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* writestream)(struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, size_t, git_otype) int (* readstream)( struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) - Add type `git_odb_stream` - Add enum `git_odb_streammode` Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
