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");

config: store the section name separately
The section and variable names use different rules, so store them as
two different variables internally.
This will simplify the configuration-writing code as well later on,
but even with parsing, the code is simpler.
Take this opportunity to add a variable to the list directly when
parsing instead of passing through config_set.

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`

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`:

Rewrite the Pack backend
The new pack backend is an adaptation of the original git.git code in
`sha1_file.c`. It's slightly faster than the previous version and
severely less memory-hungry.
The call-stack of a normal pack backend query has been properly
documented in the top of the header for future reference. And by
properly I mean with ASCII diagrams 'n shit.

Rewrite the Revision Walker
The new revision walker uses an internal Commit object storage system,
custom memory allocator and much improved topological and time sorting
algorithms. It's about 20x times faster than the previous implementation
when browsing big repositories.
The following external API calls have changed:
`git_revwalk_next` returns an OID instead of a full commit object.
The initial call to `git_revwalk_next` is no longer blocking when
iterating through a repo with a time-sorting mode.
Iterating with Topological or inverted modes still makes the initial
call blocking to preprocess the commit list, but this block should be
mostly unnoticeable on most repositories (topological preprocessing
times at 0.3s on the git.git repo).
`git_revwalk_push` and `git_revwalk_hide` now take an OID instead
of a full commit object.

Use the new git__joinpath to build paths in methods
The `git__joinpath` function has been changed to use a statically
allocated buffer; we assume the buffer to be 4096 bytes, because fuck
you.
The new method also supports an arbritrary number of paths to join,
which may come in handy in the future.
Some methods which were manually joining paths with `strcpy` now use the
new function, namely those in `index.c` and `refs.c`.
Based on Emeric Fermas' original patch, which was using the old
`git__joinpath` because I'm stupid. Thanks!

Fix directory/path manipulation methods
The `dirname` and `dirbase` methods have been replaced with the Android
implementation, which is actually compilant to some kind of standard.
A new method `topdir` has been added, which returns the topmost
directory in a path.
These changes fix issue #49:
`gitfo_prettify_dir_path` converts "./.git/" to ".git/", so
the code at src/repository.c:190 goes out of bounds when
trying to find the topmost directory.
The new `git__topdir` method handles this gracefully, and the
fixed `git__dirname` now returns the proper value for the
repository's working dir.
E.g.
/repo/.git/ ==> working dir '/repo/'
.git/ ==> working dir '.'

Add basic support to read pack-*.idx v1 and v2 files
The index data is mapped into memory and then scanned using a
binary search algorithm to locate the matching entry for the
supplied git_oid. The standard fanout hash trick is applied to
reduce the search space by 8 iterations.
Since the v1 and v2 file formats differ in their search function,
due to the different layouts used for the object records, we use
two different search implementations and a virtual function pointer
to jump to the correct version of code for the current pack index.
The single function jump per-pack should be faster then computing
a branch point inside the inner loop of a common binary search.
To improve concurrency during read operations the pack lock is only
held while verifying the index is actually open, or while opening
the index for the first time. This permits multiple concurrent
readers to scan through the same index.
If an invalid index file is opened we close it and mark the
git_pack's invalid bit to true. The git_pack structure is kept
around in its parent git_packlist, but the invalid bit will cause
all future readers to skip over the pack entirely. Pruning the
invalid entries is relatively unimportant because they shouldn't
be very common, a $GIT_DIRECTORY/objects/pack directory tends to
only have valid pack files.

Wrap malloc and friends and report out of memory as GIT_ENOMEM
We now forbid direct use of malloc, strdup or calloc within the
library and instead use wrapper functions git__malloc, etc. to
invoke the underlying library malloc and set git_errno to a no
memory error code if the allocation fails.
In the future once we have pack objects in memory we are likely
to enhance these routines with garbage collection logic to purge
cached pack data when allocations fail. Because the size of the
function will grow somewhat large, we don't want to mark them for
inline as gcc tends to aggressively inline, creating larger than
expected executables.
