Vicent Marti 6b2a1941 2011-03-12T23:09:16 Fix the retarded object interdependency system It's no longer retarded. All object interdependencies are stored as OIDs instead of actual objects. This should be hundreds of times faster, specially on big repositories. Heck, who knows, maye it doesn't even segfault -- wouldn't that be awesome? What has changed on the API? `git_commit_parent`, `git_commit_tree`, `git_tag_target` now return their values through a pointer-to-pointer, and have an error code. `git_commit_set_tree` and `git_tag_set_target` now return an error code and may fail. `git_repository_free__no_gc` has been deprecated because it's stupid. Since there are no longer any interdependencies between objects, we don't need internal reference counting, and GC never fails or double-free's pointers. `git_object_close` now does a very sane thing: marks an object as unused. Closed objects will be eventually free'd from the object cache based on LRU. Please use `git_object_close` from the garbage collector `destroy` method on your bindings. It's 100% safe. `git_repository_gc` is a new method that forces a garbage collector pass through the repo, to free as many LRU objects as possible. This is useful if we are running out of memory.
Vicent Marti f335b42c 2011-03-05T01:17:59 Fix segmentation fault when freeing a repository Disable garbage collection of cross-references to prevent double-freeing. Internal reference management is now done with a separate method. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 584f49a5 2011-03-01T01:37:28 Fix several issues with refcounting - Added several missing reference increases - Add new destructor to the repository that does not GC the objects Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 48c27f86 2011-02-28T16:51:17 Implement reference counting for git_objects All `git_object` instances looked up from the repository are reference counted. User is expected to use the new `git_object_close` when an object is no longer needed to force freeing it. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 5de079b8 2011-02-28T12:12:26 Change the object creation/lookup API The methods previously known as git_repository_lookup git_repository_newobject git_repository_lookup_ref are now part of their respective namespaces: git_object_lookup git_object_new git_reference_lookup This makes the API more consistent with the new references API.
