Patrick Steinhardt 6f6dd17c 2016-11-08T12:13:59 worktree: test creating and opening submodule worktrees
Patrick Steinhardt 39abd3ad 2016-11-04T13:39:54 worktree: compute workdir for worktrees opened via their gitdir When opening a worktree via the gitdir of its parent repository we fail to correctly set up the worktree's working directory. The problem here is two-fold: we first fail to see that the gitdir actually is a gitdir of a working tree and then subsequently fail to determine the working tree location from the gitdir. The first problem of not noticing a gitdir belongs to a worktree can be solved by checking for the existence of a `gitdir` file in the gitdir. This file points back to the gitlink file located in the working tree's working directory. As this file only exists for worktrees, it should be sufficient indication of the gitdir belonging to a worktree. The second problem, that is determining the location of the worktree's working directory, can then be solved by reading the `gitdir` file in the working directory's gitdir. When we now resolve relative paths and strip the final `.git` component, we have the actual worktree's working directory location.
Patrick Steinhardt 84f56cb0 2016-11-04T11:59:52 repository: rename `path_repository` and `path_gitlink` The `path_repository` variable is actually confusing to think about, as it is not always clear what the repository actually is. It may either be the path to the folder containing worktree and .git directory, the path to .git itself, a worktree or something entirely different. Actually, the intent of the variable is to hold the path to the gitdir, which is either the .git directory or the bare repository. Rename the variable to `gitdir` to avoid confusion. While at it, also rename `path_gitlink` to `gitlink` to improve consistency.
Patrick Steinhardt 04fb12ab 2015-10-27T12:37:51 worktree: implement functions reading HEAD Implement `git_repository_head_for_worktree` and `git_repository_head_detached_for_worktree` for directly accessing a worktree's HEAD without opening it as a `git_repository` first.
Patrick Steinhardt f0cfc341 2015-10-21T13:53:18 worktree: implement `git_worktree_prune` Implement the `git_worktree_prune` function. This function can be used to delete working trees from a repository. According to the flags passed to it, it can either delete the working tree's gitdir only or both gitdir and the working directory.
Patrick Steinhardt 2a503485 2015-10-21T16:03:04 worktree: implement locking mechanisms Working trees support locking by creating a file `locked` inside the tree's gitdir with an optional reason inside. Support this feature by adding functions to get and set the locking status.
Patrick Steinhardt dea7488e 2015-10-23T14:11:44 worktree: implement `git_worktree_add` Implement the `git_worktree_add` function which can be used to create new working trees for a given repository.
Patrick Steinhardt 372dc9ff 2015-10-21T13:49:55 worktree: implement `git_worktree_validate` Add a new function that checks wether a given `struct git_worktree` is valid. The validation includes checking if the gitdir, parent directory and common directory are present.
Patrick Steinhardt 8c8d726e 2015-10-21T12:10:30 worktree: implement `git_repository_open_from_worktree` Add function `git_repository_open_from_worktree`, which allows to open a `git_worktree` as repository.
Patrick Steinhardt d3bc09e8 2015-10-21T12:02:31 worktree: introduce `struct git_worktree` Introduce a new `struct git_worktree`, which holds information about a possible working tree connected to a repository. Introduce functions to allow opening working trees for a repository.
Patrick Steinhardt 45f2b7a4 2015-10-21T11:48:02 worktree: implement `git_worktree_list` Add new module for working trees with the `git_worktree_list` function. The function lists names for all working trees of a certain repository.
