Vicent Marti a15c550d 2011-11-16T14:09:44 threads: Fix the shared global state with TLS See `global.c` for a description of what we're doing. When libgit2 is built with GIT_THREADS support, the threading system must be explicitly initialized with `git_threads_init()`.
Vicent Marti 87d9869f 2011-09-19T03:34:49 Tabify everything There were quite a few places were spaces were being used instead of tabs. Try to catch them all. This should hopefully not break anything. Except for `git blame`. Oh well.
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.

Vicent Marti 72a3fe42 2011-03-18T19:38:49 I broke your bindings Hey. Apologies in advance -- I broke your bindings. This is a major commit that includes a long-overdue redesign of the whole object-database structure. This is expected to be the last major external API redesign of the library until the first non-alpha release. Please get your bindings up to date with these changes. They will be included in the next minor release. Sorry again! Major features include: - Real caching and refcounting on parsed objects - Real caching and refcounting on objects read from the ODB - Streaming writes & reads from the ODB - Single-method writes for all object types - The external API is now partially thread-safe The speed increases are significant in all aspects, specially when reading an object several times from the ODB (revwalking) and when writing big objects to the ODB. Here's a full changelog for the external API: blob.h ------ - Remove `git_blob_new` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent` - Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent_fromfile` - Rename `git_blob_writefile` -> `git_blob_create_fromfile` - Change `git_blob_create_fromfile`: The `path` argument is now relative to the repository's working dir - Add `git_blob_create_frombuffer` commit.h -------- - Remove `git_commit_new` - Remove `git_commit_add_parent` - Remove `git_commit_set_message` - Remove `git_commit_set_committer` - Remove `git_commit_set_author` - Remove `git_commit_set_tree` - Add `git_commit_create` - Add `git_commit_create_v` - Add `git_commit_create_o` - Add `git_commit_create_ov` tag.h ----- - Remove `git_tag_new` - Remove `git_tag_set_target` - Remove `git_tag_set_name` - Remove `git_tag_set_tagger` - Remove `git_tag_set_message` - Add `git_tag_create` - Add `git_tag_create_o` tree.h ------ - Change `git_tree_entry_2object`: New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)` - Remove `git_tree_new` - Remove `git_tree_add_entry` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byindex` - Remove `git_tree_remove_entry_byname` - Remove `git_tree_clearentries` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_id` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_name` - Remove `git_tree_entry_set_attributes` object.h ------------ - Remove `git_object_new - Remove `git_object_write` - Change `git_object_close`: This method is now *mandatory*. Not closing an object causes a memory leak. odb.h ----- - Remove type `git_rawobj` - Remove `git_rawobj_close` - Rename `git_rawobj_hash` -> `git_odb_hash` - Change `git_odb_hash`: New signature is `(git_oid *id, const void *data, size_t len, git_otype type)` - Add type `git_odb_object` - Add `git_odb_object_close` - Change `git_odb_read`: New signature is `(git_odb_object **out, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Change `git_odb_read_header`: New signature is `(size_t *len_p, git_otype *type_p, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)` - Remove `git_odb_write` - Add `git_odb_open_wstream` - Add `git_odb_open_rstream` odb_backend.h ------------- - Change type `git_odb_backend`: New internal signatures are as follows int (* read)(void **, size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* read_header)(size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) int (* writestream)(struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, size_t, git_otype) int (* readstream)( struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *) - Add type `git_odb_stream` - Add enum `git_odb_streammode` Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

Vicent Marti bbcc7ffc 2011-03-15T21:04:41 Add proper threading support to libgit2 We now depend on libpthread on all Unix platforms (should be installed by default) and use a simple wrapper for Windows threads under Win32. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>

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 e035685f 2010-12-23T00:44:41 Revert "Properly export all external symbols in Win32" It is not a good idea to export these internal symbols now that they are not required to run the unit tests. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Vicent Marti 2a18a792 2010-12-22T22:43:39 Properly export all external symbols in Win32 Some external functions were not being exported because they were using the 'extern' keyword instead of the generic GIT_EXTERN() macro. Signed-off-by: Vicent Marti <tanoku@gmail.com>
Ramsay Jones 3e0fb8fb 2009-06-04T17:12:59 thread-utils.h: Avoid using a non-standard C construct In particular, in standard C, a struct or union must have at least one member declared (ie. structs and unions cannot be empty). Some compilers allow empty structs as an extension and won't even issue a warning unless asked for it (eg, gcc requires -pedantic). Some compilers allow empty structs as an extension and will only treat it as an error if asked for strict checking (eg Digital-Mars with -A). Some compilers simply treat it as an error (eg MS Visual C/C++). Signed-off-by: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se>
Shawn O. Pearce 51eb2f90 2009-01-02T21:48:40 Change the use of asm/atomic.h to require -DGIT_HAS_ASM_ATOMIC These headers aren't always available; they typically come from the Linux kernel, but aren't supposed to be exported into the userspace /usr/include. Modern kernels won't install these and some distros rm -rf the directory post kernel header install. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Shawn O. Pearce 11bb049b 2009-01-02T21:41:52 Fix pthread_mutex based gitrc_dec The function should return true only when the counter drops to 0. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Shawn O. Pearce 028ef0de 2008-12-31T13:20:21 Add a mutex and atomic counter abstraction and implementations These abstractions can be used to implement an efficient resource reference counter and simple mutual exclusion. On pthreads we use pthread_mutex_t, except when we are also on glibc and can directly use its asm/atomic.h definitions. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Andreas Ericsson 36f0f61f 2008-11-18T19:06:25 Add compiler/platform agnostic thread-local storage It doesn't cover all cases, but we can work on those as we go along. For now, gcc, MSVC++, Intel C/C++, IBM XL C/C++, Sun Studio C/C++ and Borland C++ Builder are the supported compilers (although we boldly assume that they all are of a recent enough version to support thread-local storage). This is intended to be used in upcoming patches that implement graceful (but TLS-dependant) error-handling in the library. As an added bonus, we also bring the online_cpus() function from git.git to detect the number of usable cpu's. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
