Vicent Marti 6b2a1941 2011-03-12T23:09:16 Fix the retarded object interdependency system It's no longer retarded. All object interdependencies are stored as OIDs instead of actual objects. This should be hundreds of times faster, specially on big repositories. Heck, who knows, maye it doesn't even segfault -- wouldn't that be awesome? What has changed on the API? `git_commit_parent`, `git_commit_tree`, `git_tag_target` now return their values through a pointer-to-pointer, and have an error code. `git_commit_set_tree` and `git_tag_set_target` now return an error code and may fail. `git_repository_free__no_gc` has been deprecated because it's stupid. Since there are no longer any interdependencies between objects, we don't need internal reference counting, and GC never fails or double-free's pointers. `git_object_close` now does a very sane thing: marks an object as unused. Closed objects will be eventually free'd from the object cache based on LRU. Please use `git_object_close` from the garbage collector `destroy` method on your bindings. It's 100% safe. `git_repository_gc` is a new method that forces a garbage collector pass through the repo, to free as many LRU objects as possible. This is useful if we are running out of memory.
Vicent Marti f335b42c 2011-03-05T01:17:59 Fix segmentation fault when freeing a repository Disable garbage collection of cross-references to prevent double-freeing. Internal reference management is now done with a separate method. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti f7fcb0dd 2011-03-04T15:10:16 Don't use non-int bit fields They are not standard. MSVC complains about them. And that's not good. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 584f49a5 2011-03-01T01:37:28 Fix several issues with refcounting - Added several missing reference increases - Add new destructor to the repository that does not GC the objects Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 48c27f86 2011-02-28T16:51:17 Implement reference counting for git_objects All `git_object` instances looked up from the repository are reference counted. User is expected to use the new `git_object_close` when an object is no longer needed to force freeing it. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
nulltoken d2d6912e 2011-02-26T13:56:16 Refactored the opening and the initialization of a repository.
Vicent Marti 2f8a8ab2 2011-01-29T01:56:25 Refactor reference parsing code Several changes have been committed to allow the user to create in-memory references and write back to disk. Peeling of symbolic references has been made explicit. Added getter and setter methods for all attributes on a reference. Added corresponding documentation.

nulltoken 9282e921 2010-12-27T20:34:19 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.
Vicent Marti e52ed7a5 2011-01-03T22:34:27 Split object methods from repository.c All the relevant git_object methods have been moved to object.c 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 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 58519018 2010-10-28T02:07:18 Fix internal memory management on the library String mememory is now managed in a much more sane manner. Fixes include: - git_person email and name is no longer limited to 64 characters - git_tree_entry filename is no longer limited to 255 characters - raw objects are properly opened & closed the minimum amount of times required for parsing - unit tests no longer leak - removed 5 other misc memory leaks as reported by Valgrind - tree writeback no longer segfaults on rare ocassions The git_person struct is no longer public. It is now managed by the library, and getter methods are in place to access its internal attributes. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti d45b4a9a 2010-09-20T21:39:11 Add support for in-memory objects All repository objects can now be created from scratch in memory using either the git_object_new() method, or the corresponding git_XXX_new() for each object. So far, only git_commits can be written back to disk once created in memory. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 0c3596f1 2010-09-20T01:57:53 Add setter methods & write support for git_commit All the required git_commit_set_XXX methods have been implemented; all the attributes of a commit object can now be modified in-memory. The new method git_object_write() automatically writes back the in-memory changes of any object to the repository. So far it only supports git_commit objects.

Vicent Marti e802d8cc 2010-09-19T03:53:57 Implement internal methods to write on sources The new 'git__source_printf' does an overflow-safe printf on a source bfufer. The new 'git__source_write' does an overflow-safe byte write on a source buffer. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti f49a2e49 2010-09-19T03:21:06 Give object structures more descriptive names The 'git_obj' structure is now called 'git_rawobj', since it represents a raw object read from the ODB. The 'git_repository_object' structure is now called 'git_object', since it's the base object class for all objects. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti a7a7ddbe 2010-09-18T19:16:04 Add generic methods for object writeback git_repository_object has now several internal methods to write back the object information in the repository. - git_repository__dbo_prepare_write() Prepares the DBO object to be modified - git_repository__dbo_write() Writes new bytes to the DBO object - git_repository__dbo_writeback() Writes back the changes to the repository Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti f2408cc2 2010-08-12T19:59:32 Fix object handling in git_repository All loaded objects through git_repository_lookup are properly parsed & free'd on failure. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 3315782c 2010-08-08T14:12:17 Redesigned the walking/object lookup interface The old 'git_revpool' object has been removed and split into two distinct objects with separate functionality, in order to have separate methods for object management and object walking. * A new object 'git_repository' does the high-level management of a repository's objects (commits, trees, tags, etc) on top of a 'git_odb'. Eventually, it will also manage other repository attributes (e.g. tag resolution, references, etc). See: src/git/repository.h * A new external method 'git_repository_lookup(repo, oid, type)' has been added to the 'git_repository' API. All object lookups (git_XXX_lookup()) are now wrappers to this method, and duplicated code has been removed. The method does automatic type checking and returns a generic 'git_revpool_object' that can be cast to any specific object. See: src/git/repository.h * The external methods for object parsing of repository objects (git_XXX_parse()) have been removed. Loading objects from the repository is now managed through the 'lookup' functions. These objects are loaded with minimal information, and the relevant parsing is done automatically when the user requests any of the parsed attributes through accessor methods. An attribute has been added to 'git_repository' in order to force the parsing of all the repository objects immediately after lookup. See: src/git/commit.h See: src/git/tag.h See: src/git/tree.h * The previous walking functionality of the revpool is now found in 'git_revwalk', which does the actual revision walking on a repository; the attributes when walking through commits in a database have been decoupled from the actual commit objects. This increases performance when accessing commits during the walk and allows to have several 'git_revwalk' instances working at the same time on top of the same repository, without having to load commits in memory several times. See: src/git/revwalk.h * The old 'git_revpool_table' has been renamed to 'git_hashtable' and now works as a generic hashtable with support for any kind of object and custom hash functions. See: src/hashtable.h * All the relevant unit tests have been updated, renamed and grouped accordingly. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
