The callback function is responsible -for any actions to be taken on the config option, and is free to ignore -some options. It is not uncommon for the configuration to be parsed -several times during the run of a Git program, with different callbacks -picking out different variables useful to themselves. - -A config callback function takes three parameters: - -- the name of the parsed variable.

E.g., - `core.ignorecase`, `diff.SomeType.textconv`. - -- the value of the found variable, as a string.

To do this, -call `git_config` with a callback function and void data pointer. - -`git_config` will read all config sources in order of increasing -priority. Thus a callback should typically overwrite previously-seen -entries with new ones (e.g., if both the user-wide `~/.gitconfig` and -repo-specific `.git/config` contain `color.ui`, the config machinery -will first feed the user-wide one to the callback, and then the -repo-specific one; by overwriting, the higher-priority repo-specific -value is left at the end). - -The `config_with_options` function lets the caller examine config -while adjusting some of the default behavior of `git_config`. It should -almost never be used by "regular" Git code that is looking up -configuration variables. It is intended for advanced callers like -`git-config`, which are intentionally tweaking the normal config-lookup -process. It takes two extra parameters: - -`config_source`:: -If this parameter is non-NULL, it specifies the source to parse for -configuration, rather than looking in the usual files. See `struct -git_config_source` in `config.h` for details. Regular `git_config` defaults -to `NULL`. - -`opts`:: -Specify options to adjust the behavior of parsing config files. See `struct -config_options` in `config.h` for details. As an example: regular `git_config` -sets `opts.respect_includes` to `1` by default. - -Reading Specific Files ----------------------- - -To read a specific file in git-config format, use -`git_config_from_file`. This takes the same callback and data parameters -as `git_config`. - -Querying For Specific Variables -------------------------------- - -For programs wanting to query for specific variables in a non-callback -manner, the config API provides two functions `git_config_get_value` -and `git_config_get_value_multi`.

To do so, you simply wrap your "real" callback -function and data pointer in a `struct config_include_data`, and pass -the wrapper to the regular config-reading functions. For example: - -------------------------------------------- -int read_file_with_include(const char *file, config_fn_t fn, void *data) -{ - struct config_include_data inc = CONFIG_INCLUDE_INIT; - inc.fn = fn; - inc.data = data; - return git_config_from_file(git_config_include, file, &inc); -} -------------------------------------------- - -`git_config` respects includes automatically. The lower-level -`git_config_from_file` does not. - -Custom Configsets ------------------ - -A `config_set` can be used to construct an in-memory cache for -config-like files that the caller specifies (i.e., files like `.gitmodules`, -`~/.gitconfig` etc.). For example, - ----------------------------------------- -struct config_set gm_config; -git_configset_init(&gm_config); -int b; -/* we add config files to the config_set */ -git_configset_add_file(&gm_config, ".gitmodules"); -git_configset_add_file(&gm_config, ".gitmodules_alt"); - -if (!git_configset_get_bool(gm_config, "submodule.frotz.ignore", &b)) { - /* hack hack hack */ -} - -/* when we are done with the configset */ -git_configset_clear(&gm_config); ----------------------------------------- - -Configset API provides functions for the above mentioned work flow, including: - -`void git_configset_init(struct config_set *cs)`:: - - Initializes the config_set `cs`. - -`int git_configset_add_file(struct config_set *cs, const char *filename)`:: - - Parses the file and adds the variable-value pairs to the `config_set`, - dies if there is an error in parsing the file.

The caller should not free or modify `value`, as it - is owned by the cache. - -`const struct string_list *git_configset_get_value_multi(struct config_set *cs, const char *key)`:: - - Finds and returns the value list, sorted in order of increasing priority - for the configuration variable `key` and config set `cs`. When the - configuration variable `key` is not found, returns NULL. The caller - should not free or modify the returned pointer, as it is owned by the cache. - -`void git_configset_clear(struct config_set *cs)`:: - - Clears `config_set` structure, removes all saved variable-value pairs. - -In addition to above functions, the `config_set` API provides type specific -functions in the vein of `git_config_get_int` and family but with an extra -parameter, pointer to struct `config_set`. -They all behave similarly to the `git_config_get*()` family described in -"Querying For Specific Variables" above. - -Writing Config Files --------------------- - -Git gives multiple entry points in the Config API to write config values to -files namely `git_config_set_in_file` and `git_config_set`, which write to -a specific config file or to `.git/config` respectively. They both take a -key/value pair as parameter. -In the end they both call `git_config_set_multivar_in_file` which takes four -parameters: - -- the name of the file, as a string, to which key/value pairs will be written. - -- the name of key, as a string. This is in canonical "flat" form: the section, - subsection, and variable segments will be separated by dots, and the section - and variable segments will be all lowercase. - E.g., `core.ignorecase`, `diff.SomeType.textconv`. - -- the value of the variable, as a string. If value is equal to NULL, it will - remove the matching key from the config file. - -- the value regex, as a string. It will disregard key/value pairs where value - does not match. - -- a multi_replace value, as an int. If value is equal to zero, nothing or only - one matching key/value is replaced, else all matching key/values (regardless - how many) are removed, before the new pair is written. - -It returns 0 on success. - -Also, there are functions `git_config_rename_section` and -`git_config_rename_section_in_file` with parameters `old_name` and `new_name` -for renaming or removing sections in the config files.
