Edward Thomson f0e693b1 2021-09-07T17:53:49 str: introduce `git_str` for internal, `git_buf` is external libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by `git_buf`. We require: 1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc). 2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they can take ownership of. By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and reasoning about correctness is also difficult. Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class. The name also is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr"). The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint. It is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that follow the documentation. (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.) Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a `git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it back again.

Patrick Steinhardt 3017ba94 2017-03-15T14:24:25 worktree: implement `git_worktree_open_from_repository` While we already provide functionality to look up a worktree from a repository, we cannot do so the other way round. That is given a repository, we want to look up its worktree if it actually exists. Getting the worktree of a repository is useful when we want to get certain meta information like the parent's location, getting the locked status, etc.

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 c09fd54e 2015-09-16T12:10:11 repository: introduce commondir variable The commondir variable stores the path to the common directory. The common directory is used to store objects and references shared across multiple repositories. A current use case is the newly introduced `git worktree` feature, which sets up a separate working copy, where the backing git object store and references are pointed to by the common directory.
