Patrick Steinhardt 0c7f49dd 2017-06-30T13:39:01 Make sure to always include "common.h" first Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.
Edward Thomson 82f15896 2016-11-18T07:19:22 threads: introduce `git_thread_exit` Introduce `git_thread_exit`, which will allow threads to terminate at an arbitrary time, returning a `void *`. On Windows, this means that we need to store the current `git_thread` in TLS, so that we can set its `return` value when terminating. We cannot simply use `ExitThread`, since Win32 returns `DWORD`s from threads; we return `void *`.
Dirkjan Bussink fa72d6da 2016-03-14T12:02:00 Setup better defaults for OpenSSL ciphers This ensures that when using OpenSSL a safe default set of ciphers is selected. This is done so that the client communicates securely and we don't accidentally enable unsafe ciphers like RC4, or even worse some old export ciphers. Implements the first part of https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/3682

Carlos Martín Nieto f85fc367 2015-07-26T21:12:00 error: store the error messages in a reusable buffer Instead of allocating a brand new buffer for each error string we want to store, we can use a per-thread buffer to store the error string and re-use the underlying storage. We already use the buffer to format the string, so this mostly makes that more direct.
Carlos Martín Nieto 24e53d2f 2015-03-19T09:55:20 Rename GIT_SSL to GIT_OPENSSL This is what it's meant all along, but now we actually have multiple implementations, it's clearer to use the name of the library.

Vicent Marti 4ca0b566 2014-08-18T12:41:06 oid: Export `git_oid_tostr_s` instead of `_allocfmt` The old `allocfmt` is of no use to callers, as they are not able to free the returned buffer. Export a new API that returns a static string that doesn't need to be freed.
Carlos Martín Nieto 081e76ba 2014-06-12T16:20:52 ssl: init everything all the time Bring together all of the OpenSSL initialization to git_threads_init() so it's together and doesn't need locks. Moving it here also gives us libssh2 thread safety (when built against openssl).
Carlos Martín Nieto cf15ac8a 2014-06-12T03:20:34 ssl: cargo-cult thread safety OpenSSL's tests init everything in the main thread, so let's do that.
Carlos Martín Nieto 1d3364ac 2014-06-11T20:52:15 netops: init OpenSSL once under lock The OpenSSL init functions are not reentrant, which means that running multiple fetches in parallel can cause us to crash. Use a mutex to init OpenSSL, and since we're adding this extra checks, init it only once.
Russell Belfer a3aa5f4d 2013-09-11T12:45:20 Add simple global shutdown hooks Increasingly there are a number of components that want to do some cleanup at global shutdown time (at least if there are not going to be memory leaks). This creates a very simple system of shutdown hooks that will be invoked by git_threads_shutdown. Right now, the maximum number of hooks is hardcoded, but since adding a hook is not a public API, it should be fine and I thought it was better to start off with really simple code.
Russell Belfer e976b56d 2013-04-15T14:27:53 Add git__compare_and_swap and use it This removes the lock from the repository object and changes the internals to use the new atomic git__compare_and_swap to update the _odb, _config, _index, and _refdb variables in a threadsafe manner.

Carlos Martín Nieto 8cef828d 2012-08-18T22:11:49 Make the memory-window conrol structures global Up to now, the idea was that the user would do all the operations for one repository in the same thread. Thus we could have the memory-mapped window information thread-local and avoid any locking. This is not practical in a few environments, such as Apple's GCD which allocates threads arbitrarily or the .NET CLR, where the OS-level thread can change at any moment. Make the control structure global and protect it with a mutex so we don't depend on the thread currently executing the code.

Vicent Martí 1a481123 2012-02-17T00:13:34 error-handling: References Yes, this is error handling solely for `refs.c`, but some of the abstractions leak all ofer the code base.
