2009-01-01Git.pm: correctly handle directory name that evaluates to "false"Philippe Bruhat (BooK)
The repository constructor mistakenly rewrote a Directory parameter that Perl happens to evaluate to false (e.g. "0") to ".". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-11-14Git.pm: Make _temp_cache use the repository directoryMarten Svanfeldt (dev)
Update the usage of File::Temp->tempfile to place the temporary files within the repository directory instead of just letting Perl decide what directory to use, given there is a repository specified when requesting the temporary file. This is needed to be able to fix git-svn on msys as msysperl generates paths with UNIX-style paths (/tmp/xxx) while the git tools expect natvie path format (c:/..). The repository dir is stored in native format so by using it as the base directory for temporary files we always get a usable native full path.

2008-09-10Git.pm: Use File::Temp->tempfile instead of ->newMarcus Griep
Perl 5.8.0 ships with File::Temp 0.13, which does not have the new() interface introduced in 0.14, as pointed out by Tom G. Christensen. This modifies Git.pm to use the more established tempfile() interface and updates 'git svn' to match.

2008-08-16Git.pm: Make File::Spec and File::Temp requirement lazyMarcus Griep
This will ensure that the API at large is accessible to nearly all Perl versions, while only the temp file caching API is tied to the File::Temp and File::Spec modules being available. Signed-off-by: Marcus Griep <marcus@griep.us> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-08-13Git.pm: Add faculties to allow temp files to be cachedMarcus Griep
This patch offers a generic interface to allow temp files to be cached while using an instance of the 'Git' package. If many temp files are created and destroyed during the execution of a program, this caching mechanism can help reduce the amount of files created and destroyed by the filesystem. The temp_acquire method provides a weak guarantee that a temp file will not be stolen by subsequent requests. If a file is locked when another acquire request is made, a simple error is thrown.

2008-08-05Git.pm: localise $? in command_close_bidi_pipe()Abhijit Menon-Sen
Git::DESTROY calls _close_cat_blob and _close_hash_and_insert_object, which in turn call command_close_bidi_pipe, which calls waitpid, which alters $?. If this happens during global destruction, it may alter the program's exit status unexpectedly. Making $? local to the function solves the problem. (The problem was discovered due to a failure of test #8 in t9106-git-svn-commit-diff-clobber.sh.) Signed-off-by: Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams@toroid.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-07-09Git.pm: Add remote_refs() git-ls-remote frontendPetr Baudis
This patch also converts the good ole' git-remote.perl to use it. It is otherwise used in the repo.or.cz machinery and I guess other scripts might find it useful too. Unfortunately, git-ls-remote --heads . is subtly different from git-ls-remote . refs/heads/ (since the second matches anywhere in the string, not just at the beginning) so we have to provide interface for both.

2008-06-02Git.pm: fix return value of config methodLea Wiemann
If config is called in array context, it is supposed to return all values set for the given option key. This works for all cases except if there is no value set at all. In that case, it wrongly returns (undef) instead of (). This fixes the return statement so that it returns undef in scalar context but an empty array in array context.

2008-06-02Git.pm: fix documentation of hash_objectLea Wiemann

2008-05-28Git::cat_blob: allow using an empty blob to fix git-svn breakageJunio C Hamano
Recent "git-svn optimization" series introduced Git::cat_blob() subroutine whose interface was broken in that it returned the size of the blob but signalled an error by returning 0. You can never use an empty blob with such an interface. This fixes the interface to return a negative value to signal an error. Reported by Björn Steinbrink.

2007-12-06Color support for "git-add -i"Junio C Hamano
This is mostly lifted from earlier series by Dan Zwell, but updated to use "git config --get-color" and "git config --get-colorbool" to make it simpler and more consistent with commands written in C. A new configuration color.interactive variable is like color.diff and color.status, and controls if "git-add -i" uses color. A set of configuration variables, color.interactive.<slot>, are used to define what color is used for the prompt, header, and help text. For perl scripts, Git.pm provides $repo->get_color() method, which takes the slot name and the default color, and returns the terminal escape sequence to color the output text. $repo->get_colorbool() method can be used to check if color is set to be used for a given operation.

2007-05-10Git.pm: config_boolean() -> config_bool()Petr Baudis

2006-09-23Git.pm: Kill Git.xs for nowPetr Baudis
This patch removes Git.xs from the repository for the time being. This should hopefully enable Git.pm to finally make its way to master. Git.xs is not going away forever. When the Git libification makes some progress, it will hopefully return (but most likely as an optional component, due to the portability woes) since the performance boosts are really important for applications like Gitweb or Cogito. It needs to go away now since it is not really reliable in case you use it for several repositories in the scope of a single process, and that is not possible to fix without some either very ugly or very intrusive core changes. Rest in peace. (While you can.) Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-09-03Revert "Git.pm: Introduce fast get_object() method"Junio C Hamano
This reverts commit 3c479c37f8651d09e1d08b8d6ea9757164ee1235.
2006-07-09Git.pm: Introduce fast get_object() methodPetr Baudis
Direct .xs routine. Note that it does not work 100% correctly when you juggle multiple repository objects, but it is not that bad either. The trouble is that we might reuse packs information for another Git project; that is not an issue since Git depends on uniqueness of SHA1 ids so if we have found the object somewhere else, it is nevertheless going to be the same object. It merely makes object existence detection through this method unreliable; it is duly noted in the documentation. At least that's how I see it, I hope I didn't overlook any other potential problem. I tested it for memory leaks and it appears to be doing ok. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-07-09Make it possible to set up libgit directly (instead of from the environment)Petr Baudis
This introduces a setup_git() function which is essentialy a (public) backend for setup_git_env() which lets anyone specify custom sources for the various paths instead of environment variables. Since the repositories may get switched on the fly, this also updates code that caches paths to invalidate them properly; I hope neither of those is a sweet spot. It is used by Git.xs' xs__call_gate() to set up per-repository data for libgit's consumption. No code actually takes advantage of it yet but get_object() will in the next patches.

2006-07-03Git.pm: Try to support ActiveState output pipePetr Baudis
The code is stolen from git-annotate and completely untested since I don't have access to any Microsoft operating system now. Someone ActiveState-savvy should look at it anyway and try to implement the input pipe as well, if it is possible at all; also, the implementation seems to be horribly whitespace-unsafe.

2006-07-03Git.pm: Add support for subdirectories inside of working copiesPetr Baudis
This patch adds support for subdirectories inside of working copies; you can specify them in the constructor either as the Directory option (it will just get autodetected using rev-parse) or explicitly using the WorkingSubdir option. This makes Git->repository() do the exact same path setup and repository lookup as the Git porcelain does. This patch also introduces repo_path(), wc_path() and wc_subdir() accessor methods and wc_chdir() mutator. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-07-03Git.pm: Implement options for the command interfacePetr Baudis
This gives the user a way to easily pass options to the command routines. Currently only the STDERR option is implemented and can be used to adjust what shall be done with error output of the called command (most usefully, it can be used to silence it).

2006-07-03Git.pm: Handle failed commands' outputPetr Baudis
Currently if an external command returns error exit code, a generic exception is thrown and there is no chance for the caller to retrieve the command's output. This patch introduces a Git::Error::Command exception class which is thrown in this case and contains both the error code and the captured command output. You can use the new git_cmd_try statement to fatally catch the exception while producing a user-friendly message. It also adds command_close_pipe() for easier checking of exit status of a command we have just a pipe handle of. It has partial forward dependency on the next patch, but basically only in the area of documentation. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-07-03Git.pm: Better error handlingPetr Baudis
So far, errors just killed the whole program and in case of an error inside of libgit it would be totally uncatchable. This patch makes Git.pm throw standard Perl exceptions instead. In the future we might subclass Error to Git::Error or something but for now Error::Simple is more than enough.
