pack-protocol.txt: fix pkt-line lengths

2010-04-04T17:18:21Z

Previously, the lengths were 4-bytes short. Fix it such that the lengths reflect the total length of the pkt-line, as per spec. Signed-off-by: Tay Ray Chuan Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

run-command: support custom fd-set in async

2010-02-06T04:57:22Z

This patch adds the possibility to supply a set of non-0 file descriptors for async process communication instead of the default-created pipe. Additionally, we now support bi-directional communiction with the async procedure, by giving the async function both read and write file descriptors. To retain compatiblity and similar "API feel" with start_command, we require start_async callers to set .out = -1 to get a readable file descriptor. If either of .in or .out is 0, we supply no file descriptor to the async process. [sp: Note: Erik started this patch, and a huge bulk of it is his work. All bugs were introduced later by Shawn.] Signed-off-by: Erik Faye-Lund Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

run-command: Allow stderr to be a caller supplied pipe

2010-02-06T04:57:16Z

Like .out, .err may now be set to a file descriptor > 0, which is a writable pipe/socket/file that the child's stderr will be redirected into. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

strbuf_expand: convert "%%" to "%"

2010-01-14T17:24:42Z

The only way to safely quote arbitrary text in a pretty-print user format is to replace instances of "%" with "%x25". This is slightly unreadable, and many users would expect "%%" to produce a single "%", as that is what printf format specifiers do. This patch converts "%%" to "%" for all users of strbuf_expand(): (1) git-daemon interpolated paths (2) pretty-print user formats (3) merge driver command lines Case (1) was already doing the conversion itself outside of strbuf_expand(). Case (2) is the intended beneficiary of this patch. Case (3) users probably won't notice, but as this is user-facing behavior, consistently providing the quoting mechanism makes sense.
