Vicent Marti bb742ede 2011-09-19T01:54:32 Cleanup legal data 1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a copyright signature. 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.
Jakob Pfender 4c0b6a6d 2011-04-21T10:54:54 index: Add API for unmerged entries New external functions: - git_index_unmerged_entrycount: Counts the unmerged entries in the index - git_index_get_unmerged: Gets an unmerged entry from the index by name New internal functions: - read_unmerged: Wrapper for read_unmerged_internal - read_unmerged_internal: Reads unmerged entries from the index if the index has the INDEX_EXT_UNMERGED_SIG set - unmerged_srch: Search function for unmerged vector - unmerged_cmp: Compare function for unmerged vector New data structures: - git_index now contains a git_vector unmerged that stores unmerged entries - git_index_entry_unmerged: Representation of an unmerged file entry. It represents all three versions of the file at the same time, with one name, three modes and three OIDs
Vicent Marti 86d7e1ca 2011-02-28T12:46:13 Fix searching in git_vector We now store only one sorting callback that does entry comparison. This is used when sorting the entries using a quicksort, and when looking for a specific entry with the new search methods. The following search methods now exist: git_vector_search(vector, entry) git_vector_search2(vector, custom_search_callback, key) git_vector_bsearch(vector, entry) git_vector_bsearch2(vector, custom_search_callback, key) The sorting state of the vector is now stored internally.

Vicent Marti 817c2820 2011-02-21T17:05:16 Rewrite all file IO for more performance The new `git_filebuf` structure provides atomic high-performance writes to disk by using a write cache, and optionally a double-buffered scheme through a worker thread (not enabled yet). Writes can be done 3-layered, like in git.git (user code -> write cache -> disk), or 2-layered, by writing directly on the cache. This makes index writing considerably faster. The `git_filebuf` structure contains all the old functionality of `git_filelock` for atomic file writes and reads. The `git_filelock` structure has been removed. Additionally, the `git_filebuf` API allows to automatically hash (SHA1) all the data as it is written to disk (hashing is done smartly on big chunks to improve performance).

Vicent Marti 348c7335 2011-02-17T21:32:00 Improve the performance when writing Index files In response to issue #60 (git_index_write really slow), the write_index function has been rewritten to improve its performance -- it should now be in par with the performance of git.git. On top of that, if Posix Threads are available when compiling libgit2, a new threaded writing system will be used (3 separate threads take care of solving byte-endianness, hashing the contents of the index and writing to disk, respectively). For very long Index files, this method is up to 3x times faster than git.git. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 44908fe7 2010-12-06T23:03:16 Change the library include file Libgit2 is now officially include as #include "<git2.h>" or indidividual files may be included as #include <git2/index.h> Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti c4034e63 2010-12-02T04:31:54 Refactor all 'vector' functions into common code All the operations on the 'git_index_entry' array and the 'git_tree_entry' array have been refactored into common code in the src/vector.c file. The new vector methods support: - insertion: O(1) (avg) - deletion: O(n) - searching: O(logn) - sorting: O(logn) - r. access: O(1) Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 8c1f9e4d 2010-11-29T18:07:17 Make the bitmasks for Index Entry flags public Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti c3a20d5c 2010-11-14T22:11:46 Add support for 'index add' Actually add files to the index by creating their corresponding blob and storing it on the repository, then getting the hash and updating the index file. 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 68535125 2010-07-09T20:19:56 Add support for git index files The new 'git_index' structure is an in-memory representation of a git index on disk; the 'git_index_entry' structures represent each one of the file entries on the index. The following calls for index instantiation have been added: git_index_alloc(): instantiate a new index structure git_index_free(): free an existing index git_index_clear(): clear all the entires in an existing file The following calls for index reading and writing have been added: git_index_read(): update the contents of the index structure from its file on disk. Internally implemented through: git_index__parse() Index files are stored on disk in network byte order; all integer fields inside them are properly converted to the machine's byte order when loading them in memory. The parsing engine also distinguishes between normal index entries and extended entries with 2 extra bytes of flags. The 'TREE' extension for index entries is also loaded into memory: Tree caches stored in Index files are loaded into the 'git_index_tree' structure pointed by the 'tree' pointer inside 'git_index'. 'index->tree' points to the root node of the tree cache; the full tree can be traversed through each of the node's 'tree->children'. Index files can be written back to disk through: git_index_write(): atomic writing of existing index objects backed by internal method git_index__write() The following calls for entry manipulation have been added: git_index_add(): insert an empty entry to the index git_index_find(): search an entry by its path name git_index__append(): appends a new index entry to the end of the list, resizing the entries array if required New index entries are always inserted at the end of the array; since the index entries must be sorted for it to be internally consistent, the index object is only sorted once, and if required, before accessing the whole entriea array (e.g. before writing to disk, before traversing, etc). git_index__remove_pos(): remove an index entry in a specific position git_index__sort(): sort the entries in the array by path name The entries array is sorted stably and in place using an insertion sort, which ought to be the most efficient approach since the entries array is always mostly-sorted.
