2019-07-11dir-iterator: add flags parameter to dir_iterator_beginMatheus Tavares
Add the possibility of giving flags to dir_iterator_begin to initialize a dir-iterator with special options. Currently possible flags are: - DIR_ITERATOR_PEDANTIC, which makes dir_iterator_advance abort immediately in the case of an error, instead of keep looking for the next valid entry; - DIR_ITERATOR_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS, which makes the iterator follow symlinks and include linked directories' contents in the iteration. These new flags will be used in a subsequent patch. Also add tests for the flags' usage and adjust refs/files-backend.c to the new dir_iterator_begin signature.

2019-07-11dir-iterator: refactor state machine modelMatheus Tavares
dir_iterator_advance() is a large function with two nested loops. Let's improve its readability factoring out three functions and simplifying its mechanics. The refactored model will no longer depend on level.initialized and level.dir_state to keep track of the iteration state and will perform on a single loop. Also, dir_iterator_begin() currently does not check if the given string represents a valid directory path. Since the refactored model will have to stat() the given path at initialization, let's also check for this kind of error and make dir_iterator_begin() return NULL, on failures, with errno appropriately set. And add tests for this new behavior. Improve documentation at dir-iteration.h and code comments at dir-iterator.c to reflect the changes and eliminate possible ambiguities. Finally, adjust refs/files-backend.c to check for now possible dir_iterator_begin() failures.

2018-08-15Add missing includes and forward declarationsElijah Newren
I looped over the toplevel header files, creating a temporary two-line C program for each consisting of #include "git-compat-util.h" #include $HEADER This patch is the result of manually fixing errors in compiling those tiny programs.

2016-06-20dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory treeMichael Haggerty
The iterator interface is modeled on that for references, though no vtable is necessary because there is (so far?) only one type of dir_iterator. There are obviously a lot of features that could easily be added to this class: * Skip/include directory paths in the iteration * Shallow/deep iteration * Letting the caller decide which subdirectories to recurse into (e.g., via a dir_iterator_advance_into() function) * Option to iterate in sorted order * Option to iterate over directory paths before vs. after their contents But these are not needed for the current patch series, so I refrain.
