2010-02-13Notes API: add_note(): Add note objects to the internal notes tree structureLibravatar Johan Herland1-0/+4

2010-02-13Notes API: init_notes(): Initialize the notes tree from the given notes refLibravatar Johan Herland1-0/+20
Created by a simple refactoring of initialize_notes(). Also add a new 'flags' parameter, which is a bitwise combination of notes initialization flags. For now, there is only one flag - NOTES_INIT_EMPTY - which indicates that the notes tree should not auto-load the contents of the given (or default) notes ref, but rather should leave the notes tree initialized to an empty state. This will become useful in the future when manipulating the notes tree through the notes API. Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-02-13Notes API: get_commit_notes() -> format_note() + remove the commit restrictionLibravatar Johan Herland1-1/+10
There is really no reason why only commit objects can be annotated. By changing the struct commit parameter to get_commit_notes() into a sha1 we gain the ability to annotate any object type. To reflect this in the function naming as well, we rename get_commit_notes() to format_note(). This patch also fixes comments and variable names throughout notes.c as a consequence of the removal of the unnecessary 'commit' restriction.

2009-10-19Add flags to get_commit_notes() to control the format of the note stringLibravatar Johan Herland1-1/+4
This patch adds the following flags to get_commit_notes() for adjusting the format of the produced note string: - NOTES_SHOW_HEADER: Print "Notes:" line before the notes contents - NOTES_INDENT: Indent notes contents by 4 spaces Suggested-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-10-19Introduce commit notesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+7
Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit message. These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF. The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1). The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes, maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we want to store them efficiently together with the other objects. This patch has been improved by the following contributions: - Thomas Rast: fix core.notesRef documentation - Tor Arne Vestbø: fix printing of multi-line notes - Alex Riesen: Using char array instead of char pointer costs less BSS - Johan Herland: Plug leak when msg is good, but msglen or type causes return Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Tor Arne Vestbø <tavestbo@trolltech.com> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> get_commit_notes(): Plug memory leak when 'if' triggers, but not because of read_sha1_file() failure
