Update the library's (API) version number to v1.9.0. Also update the
soname version number to 2.0, since we've had breaking ABI changes
to the library.
By placing the X509 cert constant option in the middle of the existing
options, it renumbers everything unnecessarily. Move it to the end in
to avoid breaking changes.
Provide a mechanism to understand the backend provider for feature
within libgit2. For example, one can query the mechanism that provides
HTTPS by asking for the backend for the `GIT_FEATURE_HTTPS`.
This is particularly useful for features that are not completely
isomorphic; the HTTPS providers may have slightly different
functionality that can be controlled (eg, certificates or cipher
support). And the SSH feature is _very_ different between libssh2 and
OpenSSH.
It may also be useful to understand the support for things like the SHA1
or SHA256 backends to ensure that sha1dc is used, or that FIPS mode is
enabled.
Instead of making the commit and dump functions take individual options
structures; provide the options structure to the writer creator. This
allows us to add additional information (like OID type) during
generation.
Negative refspecs were added in Git v2.29.0 and are denoted by prefixing
a refspec with a caret. This adds a way to distinguish if a refspec is
negative and match negative refspecs.
The `git_reflog_entry__alloc` function is not actually defined, nor
used. Remove references to it in the headers. It is not clear why the
corresponding `__free` is, or should be, exported. Make it internal to
the library.
Instead of dealing with the clone options sub-options (fetch, checkout,
etc) individually, treat them as a cohesive whole when passing them
throughout the system.
Additionally, move some functions around within the file to avoid
unnecessary decls at the top of the file. And change a function
signature to avoid conflating truth with error.
Make `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE` the default. `NONE` is never what the user
wants _by default_; people expect checkout to, well, check things out.
Instead, it should be an opt-in "dry run" mode.
This removes some odd code in internal callers of `checkout` that takes
a `git_checkout_options` and updates the mode to `SAFE`. This is now
unnecessary since everything has better defaults.
This PR ensures and enforces C90 conformance for all files C, including tests.
* Modify CMakeLists.txt to mandate C90 conformance (for better compiler compatibility)
* Update deps/ntlmclient/utf8.h to latest version
* Modify two tests and one header to use C comments instead of C++ comments
Unlike existing functions, this produces a _thin_ packfile by
making use of the fact that only new objects appear in the
mempack Object Database.
A thin packfile only contains certain objects, but not its whole
closure of references. This makes it suitable for efficiently
writing sets of new objects to a local repository, by avoiding
many small I/O operations.
This relies on write_pack (e.g. git_packbuilder_write_buf) to
implement the "recency order" optimization step.
Basic measurements comparing against the writing of individual
objects show a speedup during when writing large amounts of
content on machines with comparatively slow I/O operations,
and little to no change on machines with fast I/O operations.
