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 6fd195d7 2010-11-02T18:42:42 Change git_repository initialization to use a path The constructor to git_repository is now called 'git_repository_open(path)' and takes a path to a git repository instead of an existing ODB object. Unit tests have been updated accordingly and the two test repositories have been merged into one. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti a13bc8e7 2010-10-29T02:22:38 Add getter methods for object owners You can know access the owning repository of any existing object, or the repository on which a revision walker is working on. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Vicent Marti d45b4a9a 2010-09-20T21:39:11 Add support for in-memory objects All repository objects can now be created from scratch in memory using either the git_object_new() method, or the corresponding git_XXX_new() for each object. So far, only git_commits can be written back to disk once created in memory. 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 46f8566a 2010-09-12T23:43:21 Add methods to access internal attributes in git_repo Added several methods to access: - The ODB behind a repo - The SHA1 id behind a generic repo object - The type of a generic repo object Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 9c9f4fc1 2010-08-12T23:40:54 Add support for manually freeing repo objects A new method 'git_repository_object_free' allows to manually force the freeing of a repository object, even though they are still automatically managed by the repository and don't need to be freed by the user.

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>
