refs: make explicit that ref_iterator_peel returns boolean

2021-05-19T22:54:12Z

Use -1 as error return value throughout. This removes spurious differences in the GIT_TRACE_REFS output, depending on the ref storage backend active. Before, the cached ref_iterator (but only that iterator!) would return peel_object() output directly. No callers relied on the peel_status values beyond success/failure. All calls to these functions go through peel_iterated_oid(), which returns peel_object() as a fallback, but also squashing the error values. The iteration interface already passes REF_ISSYMREF and REF_ISBROKEN through the flags argument, so the additional error values in enum peel_status provide no value. The ref iteration interface provides a separate peel() function because certain formats (eg. packed-refs and reftable) can store the peeled object next to the tag SHA1. Passing the peeled SHA1 as an optional argument to each_ref_fn maps more naturally to the implementation of ref databases. Changing the code in this way is left for a future refactoring.

use CALLOC_ARRAY

2021-03-14T00:00:09Z

Add and apply a semantic patch for converting code that open-codes CALLOC_ARRAY to use it instead. It shortens the code and infers the element size automatically. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

convert "oidcmp() != 0" to "!oideq()"

2018-08-29T18:32:49Z

This is the flip side of the previous two patches: checking for a non-zero oidcmp() can be more strictly expressed as inequality. Like those patches, we write "!= 0" in the coccinelle transformation, which covers by isomorphism the more common: if (oidcmp(E1, E2)) As with the previous two patches, this patch can be achieved almost entirely by running "make coccicheck"; the only differences are manual line-wrap fixes to match the original code. There is one thing to note for anybody replicating this, though: coccinelle 1.0.4 seems to miss the case in builtin/tag.c, even though it's basically the same as all the others. Running with 1.0.7 does catch this, so presumably it's just a coccinelle bug that was fixed in the interim. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones

2018-05-06T10:06:13Z

In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55 (setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12). The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch (cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs. Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop. This trick was performed by this invocation: sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Use MOVE_ARRAY

2018-01-22T19:32:51Z

Use the helper macro MOVE_ARRAY to move arrays. This is shorter and safer, as it automatically infers the size of elements. Patch generated by Coccinelle and contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci in Travis CI's static analysis build job. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

ref_cache: remove support for storing peeled values

2017-09-25T09:02:46Z

Now that the `packed-refs` backend doesn't use `ref_cache`, there is nobody left who might want to store peeled values of references in `ref_cache`. So remove that feature. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

ref_iterator: keep track of whether the iterator output is ordered

2017-09-14T06:19:07Z

References are iterated over in order by refname, but reflogs are not. Some consumers of reference iteration care about the difference. Teach each `ref_iterator` to keep track of whether its output is ordered. `overlay_ref_iterator` is one of the picky consumers. Add a sanity check in `overlay_ref_iterator_begin()` to verify that its inputs are ordered. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

*.[ch] refactoring: make use of the FREE_AND_NULL() macro

2017-06-16T19:44:09Z

Replace occurrences of `free(ptr); ptr = NULL` which weren't caught by the coccinelle rule. These fall into two categories: - free/NULL assignments one after the other which coccinelle all put on one line, which is functionally equivalent code, but very ugly. - manually spotted occurrences where the NULL assignment isn't right after the free() call.
