Vicent Marti ad5df35a 2012-05-19T01:40:46 libgit2 v0.17.0 "Lord of Diffstruction" Welcome to yet another libgit2 release, this one being the biggest we've shipped so far. Highlights on this release include diff, branches, notes and submodules support. The new diff API is shiny and powerful. Check it out. Apologies, one more time, to all the early adopters for the breaking API changes. We've been iterating on the error handling for the library until we reached its current state, which we believe it's significantly more usable both for normal users and for developers of bindings to other languages. Also, we've renamed a few legacy calls to ensure that the whole external API uses a consistent naming scheme. As always, check the API docs for the full list of new API calls and backwards-incompatible changes. http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2/ Changelog of new features follows: Attributes: - Added function macros to check attribute values instead of having to manually compare them - Added support for choosing the attribute loading order (workdir files vs index) and to skip the systems' default `.gitattributes` - Fixed issues when fetching attribute data on bare repositories Blob: - Added support for creating blobs from any file on disk (not restricted to the repository's working directory) - Aded support for smudge filters when writing blobs to the ODB - So far only CRLF normalization is available Branches: - Added a high-level branch API: - git_branch_create - git_branch_delete - git_branch_list - git_branch_move Commit: - Commit messages are now filtered to match Git rules (stripping comments and adding proper whitespacing rules) Config: - Added support for setting and getting multivars - Added `git_config_get_mapped` to map the value of a config variable based on its defaults Diff: - Added full diff API: - tree to tree - index to tree - workdir to index - workdir to tree - blob to blob - Added helper functions to print the diffs as valid patchfiles Error handling: - New design for the error handling API, taking into consideration the requirements of dynamic languages Indexer: - Added streaming packfile indexer Merge: - Added support for finding the merge base between two commits Notes: - Full git-notes support: - git_note_read - git_note_message/git_note_oid - git_note_create - git_note_remove - git_note_free - git_note_foreach References: - Added `git_reference_name_to_oid` helper to resolve a reference to its final OID - Added `git_reference_cmp` to compare two references with a stable order Remotes: - Added support for writing and saving remotes - `git_remote_add` - `git_remote_save` - Setters for all the attributes of a remote - Switched remote download to the new streaming packfile indexer - Fixed fetch on HTTP and Git under Windows - Added `git_remote_supported_url` helper to check if a protocol can be accessed by the library - Added `git_remote_list` Repository: - Made `git_repository_open` smarter when finding the `.git` folder. - Added `git_repository_open_ext` with extra options when opening a repository Revwalk: - Added support for pushing/hiding several references through a glob - Added helper to push/hide the current HEAD to the walker - Added helper to push/hide a single reference to the walker Status: - Greatly improved Status implementation using the new `diff` code as a backend Submodules: - Added a partial submodules API to get information about a submodule and list all the submodules in a repository - git_submodule_foreach - git_submodule_lookup Tag: - Added `git_tag_peel` helper to peel a tag to its pointed object - Tag messages are now filtered to match Git rules (stripping comments and adding proper whitespacing rules) Tree: - Killed the old `git_tree_diff` API, which is replaced by the new diff code.

Vicent Martí 242a1cea 2012-02-05T16:29:12 libgit2 v0.16.0 "Dutch Fries" This lovely and much delayed release of libgit2 ships from the cold city of Brussels, which is currently hosting FOSDEM 2012. There's been plenty of changes since the latest stable release, here's a full summary: - Git Attributes support (see git2/attr.h) There is now support to efficiently parse and retrieve information from `.gitattribute` files in a repository. Note that this information is not yet used e.g. when checking out files. - .gitignore support Likewise, all the operations that are affected by `.gitignore` files now take into account the global, user and local ignores when skipping the relevant files. - Cleanup of the object ownership semantics The ownership semantics for all repository subparts (index, odb, config files, etc) has been redesigned. All these objects are now reference counted, and can be hot-swapped in the middle of execution, allowing for instance to add a working directory and an index to a repository that was previously opened as bare, or to change the source of the ODB objects after initialization. Consequently, the repository API has been simplified to remove all the `_openX` calls that allowed setting these subparts *before* initialization. - git_index_read_tree() Git trees can now be read into the index. - More reflog functionality The reference log has been optimized, and new API calls to rename and delete the logs for a reference have been added. - Rewrite of the References code with explicit ownership semantics The references code has been mostly rewritten to take into account the cases where another Git application was modifying a repository's references while the Library was running. References are now explicitly loaded and free'd by the user, and they may be reloaded in the middle of execution if the user suspects that their values may have changed on disk. Despite the new ownership semantics, the references API stays the same. - Simplified the Remotes API Some of the more complex Remote calls have been refactored into higher level ones, to facilitate the usual `fetch` workflow of a repository. - Greatly improved thread-safety The library no longer has race conditions when loading objects from the same ODB and different threads at the same time. There's now full TLS support, even for error codes. When the library is built with `THREADSAFE=1`, the threading support must be globally initialized before it can be used (see `git_threads_init()`) - Tree walking API A new API can recursively traverse trees and subtrees issuing callbacks for every single entry. - Tree diff API There is basic support for diff'ing an index against two trees. - Improved windows support The Library is now codepage aware under Windows32: new API calls allow the user to set the default codepage for the OS in order to avoid strange Unicode errors.
