e0f3c33d	2020-04-05T11:22:19	buffer: git_buf_copy_cstr should return a value `git_buf_copy_cstr` is called with user-input, and wants to sanity-check that input. Allow it to return a value if the input was malformed in a way that we cannot cope.

b52bb4d4	2020-10-11T13:20:52	refs: use git_reference_name_is_valid
29715d40	2020-10-11T12:50:52	refs: introduce git_reference_name_is_valid Provide a function that can check reference name validity but can also signal when an error occurs. Use the name "name_is_valid", which is more suggestive of checking a given name, rather than "is_valid_name", which suggests that the function checks the validity of the current reference's name.
d70979cf	2020-10-11T12:26:34	refs: error checking in internal name validation Move `git_reference__is_valid_name` to `git_reference__name_is_valid`, which returns errors and sets an out boolean parameter.
819492c1	2020-09-18T10:34:40	refs: fix potential free of uninitialized variable The `signature` variable in `git_reference_rename` isn't initialized and neither does `git_reference__log_signature` always do. So if the latter function fails, we'll call `git_signature_free` on this unininitialized variable. Fix the issue by initializing the pointer with `NULL`.

5434f9a3	2020-06-17T14:57:13	refs: remove function to read HEAD directly With the last user of `git_reference__read_head` gone, let's remove it as it's been reading references without consulting the refdb backends.
7216b048	2020-06-17T14:23:15	refs: update HEAD references via refdb When renaming a reference, we need to iterate over every HEAD and potentially update it in case it is a symbolic reference pointing to the previous name of the renamed reference. Most importantly, this doesn't only include HEADs from the repo we're renaming the reference in, but we also need to iterate over HEADs from linked worktrees. In order to update the HEADs, we directly read them from the worktree's gitdir and thus assume that both repository and worktrees use the filesystem-based reference backend. But this breaks as soon as one got a repository with a different refdb and breaks our own abstractions. So let's instead update HEAD references via the refdb by first opening each worktree as a repository and then using the usual functions to read and update HEADs. This is a lot less efficient than the current code, but it's not like we can really help this: going via the refdb is mandatory.
b895547c	2020-06-30T09:35:21	refs: replace reimplementation of reference resolver The refs code currently has a second implementation that resolves references in order to find any final symbolic reference pointing to a nonexistent target branch. As we've just extended `git_refdb_resolve` to also return such references, let's use that one instead in order to reduce code duplication.
cf7dd05b	2020-06-30T13:26:05	refdb: return resolved symbolic refs pointing to nonexistent refs In some cases, resolving references requires us to also know about the final symbolic reference that's pointing to a nonexistent branch, e.g. in an empty repository where the main branch is yet unborn but HEAD already points to it. Right now, the resolving logic is thus split up into two, where one is the new refdb implementation and the second one is an ad-hoc implementation inside "refs.c". Let's extend `git_refdb_resolve` to also return such final dangling references pointing to nonexistent branches so we can deduplicate the resolving logic.
c54f40e4	2020-06-30T09:28:12	refs: move resolving of references into the refdb Resolving of symbolic references is currently implemented inside the "refs" layer. As a result, it's hard to call this function from low-level parts that only have a refdb available, but no repository, as the "refs" layer always operates on the repository-level. So let's move the function into the generic "refdb" implementation to lift this restriction.
a6c9e0b3	2020-06-08T12:40:47	tree-wide: mark local functions as static We've accumulated quite some functions which are never used outside of their respective code unit, but which are lacking the `static` keyword. Add it to reduce their linkage scope and allow the compiler to optimize better.
852c83ee	2020-01-15T13:31:21	refs: refuse to delete HEAD This requires adding a new symbolic ref to the testrepo fixture. Some of the existing tests attempt to delete HEAD, expecting a different failure. Introduce and use a non-HEAD symbolic ref instead. Adjust a few other tests as needed. Fixes #5357
97b8491b	2019-12-08T15:25:52	refs: rename git_reference__set_name to git_reference__realloc As git_reference__name will reallocate storage to account for longer names (it's actually allocator-dependent), it will cause all existing pointers to the old object to become dangling, as they now point to freed memory. Fix the issue by renaming to a more descriptive name, and pass a pointer to the actual reference that can safely be invalidated if the realloc succeeds.
e54343a4	2019-06-29T09:17:32	fileops: rename to "futils.h" to match function signatures Our file utils functions all have a "futils" prefix, e.g. `git_futils_touch`. One would thus naturally guess that their definitions and implementation would live in files "futils.h" and "futils.c", respectively, but in fact they live in "fileops.h". Rename the files to match expectations.

5d92e547	2019-06-08T17:28:35	oid: `is_zero` instead of `iszero` The only function that is named `issomething` (without underscore) was `git_oid_iszero`. Rename it to `git_oid_is_zero` for consistency with the rest of the library.
51214b85	2019-04-26T10:15:49	refs: loosen restriction on wildcard "" refspecs In commit cd377f45c9 (refs: loosen restriction on wildcard "" refspecs, 2015-07-22) in git.git, the restrictions on wildcard "" refspecs has been loosened. While wildcards were previously only allowed if the component is a single "", this was changed to also accept other patterns as part of the component. We never adapted to that change and still reject any wildcard patterns that aren't a single "*" only. Update our tests to reflect the upstream change and adjust our own code accordingly.
efb20825	2019-02-14T13:05:49	branches: introduce flag to skip enumeration of certain HEADs Right now, the function `git_repository_foreach_head` will always iterate over all HEADs of the main repository and its worktrees. In some cases, it might be required to skip either of those, though. Add a flag in preparation for the following commit that enables this behaviour.

This does involve some other work to make sure we don't mix const and non-const variables, but by splitting what we want each variable to do we can also simplify the logic for when we do want to free a new reference we might have allocated.

b112b1e9	2017-10-06T11:24:11	refs: do not use peeled OID if peeling to a tag If a reference stored in a packed-refs file does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob, the packed-refs file will also will include a fully-peeled OID pointing to the first underlying object of that type. If we try to peel a reference to an object, we will use that peeled OID to speed up resolving the object. As a reference for an annotated tag does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob but instead to the tag object, the packed-refs file will have an accomodating fully-peeled OID pointing to the object referenced by that tag. When we use the fully-peeled OID pointing to the referenced object when peeling, we obviously cannot peel that to the tag anymore. Fix this issue by not using the fully-peeled OID whenever we want to peel to a tag. Note that this does not include the case where we want to resolve to _any_ object type. Existing code may make use from the fact that we resolve those to commit objects instead of tag objects, even though that behaviour is inconsistent between packed and loose references. Furthermore, some tests of ours make the assumption that we in fact resolve those references to a commit.
0c7f49dd	2017-06-30T13:39:01	Make sure to always include "common.h" first Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.

2a485dab	2017-04-04T18:55:57	refs: update worktree HEADs when renaming branches Whenever we rename a branch, we update the repository's symbolic HEAD reference if it currently points to the branch that is to be renamed. But with the introduction of worktrees, we also have to iterate over all HEADs of linked worktrees to adjust them. Do so.
5b65ac25	2017-04-05T10:43:18	refs: implement function to read references from file Currently, we only provide functions to read references directly from a repository's reference store via e.g. `git_reference_lookup`. But in some cases, we may want to read files not connected to the current repository, e.g. when looking up HEAD of connected work trees. This commit implements `git_reference__read_head`, which will read out and allocate a reference at an arbitrary path.

452bf57c	2016-08-27T13:42:53	Make symbolic ref target validation optional Introduce GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYMBOLIC_REF_TARGET_VALIDATION option. Setting this option to 0 allows validation of a symbolic ref's target to be bypassed. This option is enabled by default. This mechanism is added primarily to address a discrepancy between git behaviour and libgit2 behaviour, whereby the former allows the symbolic ref target to carry an arbitrary string and the latter does not, so: $ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/foo bar $ cat .git/refs/heads/foo ref: bar where as attempting the same via libgit2 raises an error: The given reference name 'bar' is not valid this mechanism also allows those that might want to make use of git's more lenient treatment of symbolic ref targets to do so.

Otherwise we leave the error for the last failed lookup, which can be rather unexpected as it mentions a remote when the user thought they were trying to look up a branch.

659cf202	2015-01-07T12:23:05	Remove the signature from ref-modifying functions The signature for the reflog is not something which changes dynamically. Almost all uses will be NULL, since we want for the repository's default identity to be used, making it noise. In order to allow for changing the identity, we instead provide git_repository_set_ident() and git_repository_ident() which allow a user to override the choice of signature.

f1453c59	2015-02-12T12:19:37	Make our overflow check look more like gcc/clang's Make our overflow checking look more like gcc and clang's, so that we can substitute it out with the compiler instrinsics on platforms that support it. This means dropping the ability to pass `NULL` as an out parameter. As a result, the macros also get updated to reflect this as well.

ab8d9242	2014-06-28T06:39:38	Introduce reference transactions A transaction allows you to lock multiple references and set up changes for them before applying the changes all at once (or as close as the backend supports). This can be used for replication purposes, or for making sure some operations run when the reference is locked and thus cannot be changed.

This fixes two issues I found when core.precomposeunicode is enabled: * When creating a reference with a NFD string, the returned git_reference would return this NFD string as the reference’s name. But when looking up the reference later, the name would then be returned as NFC string. * Renaming a reference would not honor the core.precomposeunicode and apply no normalization to the new reference name.

f10d7a36	2013-12-06T15:53:26	Further callback error check style fixes Okay, I've decided I like the readability of this style much better so I used it everywhere.
25e0b157	2013-12-06T15:07:57	Remove converting user error to GIT_EUSER This changes the behavior of callbacks so that the callback error code is not converted into GIT_EUSER and instead we propagate the return value through to the caller. Instead of using the giterr_capture and giterr_restore functions, we now rely on all functions to pass back the return value from a callback. To avoid having a return value with no error message, the user can call the public giterr_set_str or some such function to set an error message. There is a new helper 'giterr_set_callback' that functions can invoke after making a callback which ensures that some error message was set in case the callback did not set one. In places where the sign of the callback return value is meaningful (e.g. positive to skip, negative to abort), only the negative values are returned back to the caller, obviously, since the other values allow for continuing the loop. The hardest parts of this were in the checkout code where positive return values were overloaded as meaningful values for checkout. I fixed this by adding an output parameter to many of the internal checkout functions and removing the overload. This added some code, but it is probably a better implementation. There is some funkiness in the network code where user provided callbacks could be returning a positive or a negative value and we want to rely on that to cancel the loop. There are still a couple places where an user error might get turned into GIT_EUSER there, I think, though none exercised by the tests.
dab89f9b	2013-12-04T21:22:57	Further EUSER and error propagation fixes This continues auditing all the places where GIT_EUSER is being returned and making sure to clear any existing error using the new giterr_user_cancel helper. As a result, places that relied on intercepting GIT_EUSER but having the old error preserved also needed to be cleaned up to correctly stash and then retrieve the actual error. Additionally, as I encountered places where error codes were not being propagated correctly, I tried to fix them up. A number of those fixes are included in the this commit as well.
96869a4e	2013-12-03T16:45:39	Improve GIT_EUSER handling This adds giterr_user_cancel to return GIT_EUSER and clear any error message that is sitting around. As a result of using that in places, we need to be more thorough with capturing errors that happen inside a callback when used internally. To help with that, this also adds giterr_capture and giterr_restore so that when we internally use a foreach-type function that clears errors and converts them to GIT_EUSER, it is easier to restore not just the return value, but the actual error message text.
f2105129	2013-11-23T14:39:53	refs: expose has_log() on the backend The frontend used to look at the file directly, but that's obviously not the right thing to do. Expose it on the backend and use that function instead.
8d5ec910	2013-11-23T14:13:01	refs: expose a way to ensure a ref has a log Sometimes (e.g. stash) we want to make sure that a log will be written, even if it's not in one of the standard locations. Let's make that easier.
a57dd3b7	2013-11-13T18:15:20	reflog: integrate into the ref writing Whenever a reference is created or updated, we need to write to the reflog regardless of whether the user gave us a message, so we shouldn't leave that to the ref frontend, but integrate it into the backend. This also eliminates the race between ref update and writing to the reflog, as we protect the reflog with the ref lock. As an additional benefit, this reflog append on the backend happens by appending to the file instead of parsing and rewriting it.

74353137	2013-10-09T11:57:03	After iconv init reset ref normalize error The iconv init was accidentally clearing the default error state during reference normalization. This resets so that normalization errors will be detected correctly.
92dac975	2013-10-08T16:35:57	Make reference lookups apply precomposeunicode Before these changes, looking up a reference would return the same precomposed or decomposed form of the reference name that was used to look it up, so on MacOS which ignores the difference between the two, a single reference could be looked up either way and git_reference_name would return the form of the name that was used to look it up! This change makes lookup always return the precomposed name if core.precomposeunicode is set regardless of which version was used to look it up. The reference iterator was already returning the precomposed form from earlier work. This also updates the CMakeLists.txt rules for enabling iconv usage because the clar tests for this code were actually not being activated properly with the old version. Finally, this moves git_repository_reset_filesystem from include/ git2/repository.h to include/git2/sys/repository.h since it is not really a function that normal library users should have to think about very often.

refs: introduce git_reference_name_is_valid Provide a function that can check reference name validity but can also signal when an error occurs. Use the name "name_is_valid", which is more suggestive of checking a given name, rather than "is_valid_name", which suggests that the function checks the validity of the current reference's name.

refs: update HEAD references via refdb When renaming a reference, we need to iterate over every HEAD and potentially update it in case it is a symbolic reference pointing to the previous name of the renamed reference. Most importantly, this doesn't only include HEADs from the repo we're renaming the reference in, but we also need to iterate over HEADs from linked worktrees. In order to update the HEADs, we directly read them from the worktree's gitdir and thus assume that both repository and worktrees use the filesystem-based reference backend. But this breaks as soon as one got a repository with a different refdb and breaks our own abstractions. So let's instead update HEAD references via the refdb by first opening each worktree as a repository and then using the usual functions to read and update HEADs. This is a lot less efficient than the current code, but it's not like we can really help this: going via the refdb is mandatory.

refs: replace reimplementation of reference resolver The refs code currently has a second implementation that resolves references in order to find any final symbolic reference pointing to a nonexistent target branch. As we've just extended `git_refdb_resolve` to also return such references, let's use that one instead in order to reduce code duplication.

refdb: return resolved symbolic refs pointing to nonexistent refs In some cases, resolving references requires us to also know about the final symbolic reference that's pointing to a nonexistent branch, e.g. in an empty repository where the main branch is yet unborn but HEAD already points to it. Right now, the resolving logic is thus split up into two, where one is the new refdb implementation and the second one is an ad-hoc implementation inside "refs.c". Let's extend `git_refdb_resolve` to also return such final dangling references pointing to nonexistent branches so we can deduplicate the resolving logic.

2020-06-30T09:28:12

refs: move resolving of references into the refdb Resolving of symbolic references is currently implemented inside the "refs" layer. As a result, it's hard to call this function from low-level parts that only have a refdb available, but no repository, as the "refs" layer always operates on the repository-level. So let's move the function into the generic "refdb" implementation to lift this restriction.

refs: rename git_reference__set_name to git_reference__realloc As git_reference__name will reallocate storage to account for longer names (it's actually allocator-dependent), it will cause all existing pointers to the old object to become dangling, as they now point to freed memory. Fix the issue by renaming to a more descriptive name, and pass a pointer to the actual reference that can safely be invalidated if the realloc succeeds.

fileops: rename to "futils.h" to match function signatures Our file utils functions all have a "futils" prefix, e.g. `git_futils_touch`.

Rename the files to match expectations.

refs: do not use peeled OID if peeling to a tag If a reference stored in a packed-refs file does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob, the packed-refs file will also will include a fully-peeled OID pointing to the first underlying object of that type. If we try to peel a reference to an object, we will use that peeled OID to speed up resolving the object. As a reference for an annotated tag does not directly point to a commit, tree or blob but instead to the tag object, the packed-refs file will have an accomodating fully-peeled OID pointing to the object referenced by that tag. When we use the fully-peeled OID pointing to the referenced object when peeling, we obviously cannot peel that to the tag anymore. Fix this issue by not using the fully-peeled OID whenever we want to peel to a tag. Note that this does not include the case where we want to resolve to _any_ object type. Existing code may make use from the fact that we resolve those to commit objects instead of tag objects, even though that behaviour is inconsistent between packed and loose references. Furthermore, some tests of ours make the assumption that we in fact resolve those references to a commit.

Make sure to always include "common.h" first Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.

This commit implements `git_reference__read_head`, which will read out and allocate a reference at an arbitrary path.

Make symbolic ref target validation optional Introduce GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYMBOLIC_REF_TARGET_VALIDATION option. Setting this option to 0 allows validation of a symbolic ref's target to be bypassed. This option is enabled by default. This mechanism is added primarily to address a discrepancy between git behaviour and libgit2 behaviour, whereby the former allows the symbolic ref target to carry an arbitrary string and the latter does not, so: $ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/foo bar $ cat .git/refs/heads/foo ref: bar where as attempting the same via libgit2 raises an error: The given reference name 'bar' is not valid this mechanism also allows those that might want to make use of git's more lenient treatment of symbolic ref targets to do so.

2013-12-06T15:07:57

Remove converting user error to GIT_EUSER This changes the behavior of callbacks so that the callback error code is not converted into GIT_EUSER and instead we propagate the return value through to the caller. Instead of using the giterr_capture and giterr_restore functions, we now rely on all functions to pass back the return value from a callback. To avoid having a return value with no error message, the user can call the public giterr_set_str or some such function to set an error message. There is a new helper 'giterr_set_callback' that functions can invoke after making a callback which ensures that some error message was set in case the callback did not set one. In places where the sign of the callback return value is meaningful (e.g. positive to skip, negative to abort), only the negative values are returned back to the caller, obviously, since the other values allow for continuing the loop. The hardest parts of this were in the checkout code where positive return values were overloaded as meaningful values for checkout. I fixed this by adding an output parameter to many of the internal checkout functions and removing the overload. This added some code, but it is probably a better implementation. There is some funkiness in the network code where user provided callbacks could be returning a positive or a negative value and we want to rely on that to cancel the loop. There are still a couple places where an user error might get turned into GIT_EUSER there, I think, though none exercised by the tests.

Further EUSER and error propagation fixes This continues auditing all the places where GIT_EUSER is being returned and making sure to clear any existing error using the new giterr_user_cancel helper. As a result, places that relied on intercepting GIT_EUSER but having the old error preserved also needed to be cleaned up to correctly stash and then retrieve the actual error. Additionally, as I encountered places where error codes were not being propagated correctly, I tried to fix them up. A number of those fixes are included in the this commit as well.

96869a4e

2013-12-03T16:45:39

Improve GIT_EUSER handling This adds giterr_user_cancel to return GIT_EUSER and clear any error message that is sitting around. As a result of using that in places, we need to be more thorough with capturing errors that happen inside a callback when used internally. To help with that, this also adds giterr_capture and giterr_restore so that when we internally use a foreach-type function that clears errors and converts them to GIT_EUSER, it is easier to restore not just the return value, but the actual error message text.

reflog: integrate into the ref writing Whenever a reference is created or updated, we need to write to the reflog regardless of whether the user gave us a message, so we shouldn't leave that to the ref frontend, but integrate it into the backend. This also eliminates the race between ref update and writing to the reflog, as we protect the reflog with the ref lock. As an additional benefit, this reflog append on the backend happens by appending to the file instead of parsing and rewriting it.

Make reference lookups apply precomposeunicode Before these changes, looking up a reference would return the same precomposed or decomposed form of the reference name that was used to look it up, so on MacOS which ignores the difference between the two, a single reference could be looked up either way and git_reference_name would return the form of the name that was used to look it up! This change makes lookup always return the precomposed name if core.precomposeunicode is set regardless of which version was used to look it up. The reference iterator was already returning the precomposed form from earlier work. This also updates the CMakeLists.txt rules for enabling iconv usage because the clar tests for this code were actually not being activated properly with the old version. Finally, this moves git_repository_reset_filesystem from include/ git2/repository.h to include/git2/sys/repository.h since it is not really a function that normal library users should have to think about very often.

reflog: move the reflog implementation into refdb_fs References and their logs are logically coupled, let's make it so in the code by moving the fs-based reflog implementation to live next to the fs-based refs one. As part of the change, make the function take names rather than references, as only the names are relevant when looking up and handling reflogs.
