War on whitespace

2007-06-07T07:04:01Z

This uses "git-apply --whitespace=strip" to fix whitespace errors that have crept in to our source files over time. There are a few files that need to have trailing whitespaces (most notably, test vectors). The results still passes the test, and build result in Documentation/ area is unchanged.

add add_object_array_with_mode

2007-04-24T07:08:49Z

Each object in struct object_array is extended with the mode. If not specified, S_IFINVALID is used. An object with an mode value can be added with add_object_array_with_mode. Signed-off-by: Martin Koegler Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Clean up object creation to use more common code

2007-04-17T06:36:16Z

This replaces the fairly odd "created_object()" function that did _most_ of the object setup with a more complete "create_object()" function that also has a more natural calling convention. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Add a generic "object decorator" interface, and make object refs use it

2007-04-16T23:51:09Z

This allows you to add an arbitrary "decoration" of your choice to any object. It's a space- and time-efficient way to add information to arbitrary objects, especially if most objects probably do not have the decoration. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

get rid of lookup_object_type()

2007-02-27T09:34:21Z

This function is called only once in the whole source tree. Let's move its code inline instead, which is also in the spirit of removing as much object type char arrays as possible (not that this patch does anything for that but at least it is now a local matter).

convert object type handling from a string to a number

2007-02-27T09:34:21Z

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place. This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the system. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

formalize typename(), and add its reverse type_from_string()

2007-02-27T09:34:21Z

Sometime typename() is used, sometimes type_names[] is accessed directly. Let's enforce typename() all the time which allows for validating the type. Also let's add a function to go from a name to a type and use it instead of manual memcpy() when appropriate. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Add git-for-each-ref: helper for language bindings

2006-09-16T17:22:02Z

This adds a new command, git-for-each-ref. You can have it iterate over refs and have it output various aspects of the objects they refer to. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

more lightweight revalidation while reusing deflated stream in packing

2006-09-04T04:09:18Z

When copying from an existing pack and when copying from a loose object with new style header, the code makes sure that the piece we are going to copy out inflates well and inflate() consumes the data in full while doing so. The check to see if the xdelta really apply is quite expensive as you described, because you would need to have the image of the base object which can be represented as a delta against something else.

Remove TYPE_* constant macros and use object_type enums consistently.

2006-07-13T06:18:03Z

This updates the type-enumeration constants introduced to reduce the memory footprint of "struct object" to match the type bits already used in the packfile format, by removing the former (i.e. TYPE_* constant macros) and using the latter (i.e. enum object_type) throughout the code for consistency. Eventually we can stop passing around the "type strings" entirely, and this will help - no confusion about two different integer enumeration.
