Edward Thomson f0e693b1 2021-09-07T17:53:49 str: introduce `git_str` for internal, `git_buf` is external libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by `git_buf`. We require: 1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc). 2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they can take ownership of. By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and reasoning about correctness is also difficult. Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class. The name also is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr"). The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint. It is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that follow the documentation. (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.) Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a `git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it back again.
Patrick Steinhardt e54343a4 2019-06-29T09:17:32 fileops: rename to "futils.h" to match function signatures Our file utils functions all have a "futils" prefix, e.g. `git_futils_touch`. One would thus naturally guess that their definitions and implementation would live in files "futils.h" and "futils.c", respectively, but in fact they live in "fileops.h". Rename the files to match expectations.
Edward Thomson 08f39208 2019-06-08T17:46:04 blob: add underscore to `from` functions The majority of functions are named `from_something` (with an underscore) instead of `fromsomething`. Update the blob functions for consistency with the rest of the library.

Carlos Martín Nieto 35e68606 2015-11-04T10:36:50 blob: fix fromchunks iteration counter By returning when the count goes to zero rather than below it, setting `howmany` to 7 in fact writes out the string 6 times. Correct the termination condition to write out the string the amount of times we specify.
Carlos Martín Nieto 0a5c6028 2015-11-04T10:30:48 blob: introduce creating a blob by writing into a stream The pair of `git_blob_create_frombuffer()` and `git_blob_create_frombuffer_commit()` is meant to replace `git_blob_create_fromchunks()` by providing a way for a user to write a new blob when they want filtering or they do not know the size. This approach allows the caller to retain control over when to add data to this buffer and a more natural fit into higher-level language's own stream abstractions instead of having to handle IO wait in the callback. The in-memory buffer size of 2MB is chosen somewhat arbitrarily to be a round multiple of usual page sizes and a value where most blobs seem likely to be either going to be way below or way over that size. It's also a round number of pages. This implementation re-uses the helper we have from `_fromchunks()` so we end up writing everything to disk, but hopefully more efficiently than with a default filebuf. A later optimisation can be to avoid writing the in-memory contents to disk, with some extra complexity.
