2020-07-28argv-array: rename to strvecLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
The name "argv-array" isn't very good, because it describes what the data type can be used for (program argument arrays), not what it actually is (a dynamically-growing string array that maintains a NULL-terminator invariant). This leads to people being hesitant to use it for other cases where it would actually be a good fit. The existing name is also clunky to use. It's overly long, and the name often leads to saying things like "argv.argv" (i.e., the field names overlap with variable names, since they're describing the use, not the type). Let's give it a more neutral name. I settled on "strvec" because "vector" is the name for a dynamic array type in many programming languages. "strarray" would work, too, but it's longer and a bit more awkward to say (and don't we all say these things in our mind as we type them?). A more extreme direction would be a generic data structure which stores a NULL-terminated of _any_ type. That would be easy to do with void pointers, but we'd lose some type safety for the existing cases. Plus it raises questions about memory allocation and ownership. So I limited myself here to changing names only, and not semantics. If we do find a use for that more generic data type, we could perhaps implement it at a lower level and then provide type-safe wrappers around it for strings. But that can come later. This patch does the minimum to convert the struct and function names in the header and implementation, leaving a few things for follow-on patches: - files retain their original names for now - struct field names are retained for now - there's a preprocessor compat layer that lets most users remain the same for now. The exception is headers which made a manual forward declaration of the struct. I've converted them (and their dependent function declarations) here.

2019-11-18remote: move doc to remote.h and refspec.hLibravatar Heba Waly1-0/+16
Move the documentation from Documentation/technical/api-remote.txt to remote.h and refspec.h as it's easier for the developers to find the usage information beside the code instead of looking for it in another doc file. N.B. The doc for both push and fetch members of the remote struct aren't moved because they are out of date, as the members were changed from arrays of rspecs to struct refspec 2 years ago. Also documentation/technical/api-remote.txt is removed because the information it has is now redundant and it'll be hard to keep it up to date and synchronized with the documentation in the header file.

2018-06-11refspec: add back a refspec_item_init() functionLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+2
Re-add the non-fatal version of refspec_item_init_or_die() renamed away in an earlier change to get a more minimal diff. This should be used by callers that have their own error handling. This new function could be marked "static" since nothing outside of refspec.c uses it, but expecting future use of it, let's make it available to other users.

2018-06-11refspec: s/refspec_item_init/&_or_die/gLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+2
Rename the refspec_item_init() function introduced in 6d4c057859 ("refspec: introduce struct refspec", 2018-05-16) to refspec_item_init_or_die(). This follows the convention of other *_or_die() functions, and is done in preparation for making it a wrapper for a non-fatal variant.

2018-06-01fetch: do not pass ref-prefixes for fetch by exact SHA1Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+4
When v2.18.0-rc0~10^2~1 (refspec: consolidate ref-prefix generation logic, 2018-05-16) factored out the ref-prefix generation code for reuse, it left out the 'if (!item->exact_sha1)' test in the original ref-prefix generation code. As a result, fetches by SHA-1 generate ref-prefixes as though the SHA-1 being fetched were an abbreviated ref name: $ GIT_TRACE_PACKET=1 bin-wrappers/git -c protocol.version=2 \ fetch origin 12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 [...] packet: fetch> ref-prefix 12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/tags/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/heads/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/remotes/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448 packet: fetch> ref-prefix refs/remotes/12039e008f9a4e3394f3f94f8ea897785cb09448/HEAD packet: fetch> 0000 If there is another ref name on the command line or the object being fetched is already available locally, then that's mostly harmless. But otherwise, we error out with fatal: no matching remote head since the server did not send any refs we are interested in. Filter out the exact_sha1 refspecs to avoid this. This patch adds a test to check this behavior that notices another behavior difference between protocol v0 and v2 in the process. Add a NEEDSWORK comment to clear it up.

2018-05-18refspec: consolidate ref-prefix generation logicLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+4
When using protocol v2 a client constructs a list of ref-prefixes which are sent across the wire so that the server can do server-side filtering of the ref-advertisement. The logic that does this exists for both fetch and push (even though no push support for v2 currently exists yet) and is roughly the same so lets consolidate this logic and make it general enough that it can be used for both the push and fetch cases.

2018-05-18refspec: introduce struct refspecLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+25
Introduce 'struct refspec', an abstraction around a collection of 'struct refspec_item's much like how 'struct pathspec' holds a collection of 'struct pathspec_item's. A refspec struct also contains an array of the original refspec strings which will be used to facilitate the migration to using this new abstraction throughout the code base.
