threads: Fix the shared global state with TLS
See `global.c` for a description of what we're doing.
When libgit2 is built with GIT_THREADS support, the threading system
must be explicitly initialized with `git_threads_init()`.

1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a

2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.

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");

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`
- Remove `git_commit_set_committer`
- Remove `git_commit_set_author`
- Remove `git_commit_set_tree`
- Add `git_commit_create`
- Add `git_commit_create_v`
- Add `git_commit_create_o`
- Add `git_commit_create_ov`
tag.h
-----
- Remove `git_tag_new`
- Remove `git_tag_set_target`
- Remove `git_tag_set_name`
- Remove `git_tag_set_tagger`
- Remove `git_tag_set_message`
- Add `git_tag_create`
- Add `git_tag_create_o`
tree.h
------
- Change `git_tree_entry_2object`:
New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)`

- Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byname`
- Remove `git_tree_clearentries`
- Remove `git_tree_entry_set_id`

- Remove `git_tree_entry_set_attributes`
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`:

odb_backend.h
-------------
- Change type `git_odb_backend`:
New internal signatures are as follows
int (* read)(void **, size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
int (* read_header)(size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
int (* writestream)(struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, size_t, git_otype)
int (* readstream)( struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
- Add type `git_odb_stream`
- Add enum `git_odb_streammode`

Merge nulltoken's reference parsing code
All the commits have been squashed into a single one before refactoring
the final code, to keep everything tidy.
Individual commit messages are as follows:
Added repository reference looking up functionality placeholder.
Added basic reference database definition and caching infrastructure.
Removed useless constant.
Added GIT_EINVALIDREFNAME error and description. Added missing description for GIT_EBAREINDEX.
Added GIT_EREFCORRUPTED error and description.
Added GIT_ETOONESTEDSYMREF error and description.
Added resolving of direct and symbolic references.
Prepared the packed-refs parsing.
Added parsing of the packed-refs file content.
When no loose reference has been found, the full content of the packed-refs file is parsed. All of the new (i.e. not previously parsed as a loose reference) references are eagerly stored in the cached references storage.
The method packed_reference_file__parse() is in deer need of some refactoring. :-)
Extracted to a method the parsing of the peeled target of a tag.
Extracted to a method the parsing of a standard packed ref.
Fixed leaky removal of the cached references.
Ensured that a previously parsed packed reference isn't returned if a more up-to-date loose reference exists.
Enhanced documentation of git_repository_reference_lookup().
Moved some refs related constants from repository.c to refs.h.
Made parsing of a packed tag reference more robust.
Updated git_repository_reference_lookup() documentation.
Added some references to the test repository.
Added some tests covering tag references looking up.
Added some tests covering symbolic and head references looking up.
Added some tests covering packed references looking up.

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.

Support building on Mac OS X by using pthread_getspecific for TLS
The Mach-O format does not permit gcc to implement the __thread
TLS specification, so we must instead emulate it using a single
int cell allocated from memory and stored inside of the thread
specific data associated with the current pthread.
What makes this tricky is git_errno must be a valid lvalue, so
we really need to return a pointer to the caller and deference it
as part of the git_errno macro.
The GCC-specific __attribute__((constructor)) extension is used
to ensure the pthread_key_t is allocated before any Git functions
are executed in the library, as this is necessary to access our
thread specific storage.

Add an embryo of a TLS-aware error handling system
This adds the per-thread global variable git_errno to the
system, which callers can examine to get information about
an error.
Two helper functions are added to reduce LoC-count for the
library code itself.
Also, some exceptions are made for running sparse on GIT_TLS
definitions, since it doesn't grok thread-local variables at
all.
