git_object_dup: introduce typesafe versions

2016-03-23T21:08:37+00:00

commit: add function to attach a signature to a commit

2016-03-15T11:55:03+00:00

In combination with the function which creates a commit into a buffer,
this allows us to more easily create signed commits.

commit: split creating the commit and writing it out

2016-03-08T12:11:49+00:00

Sometimes you want to create a commit but not write it out to the
objectdb immediately. For these cases, provide a new function to
retrieve the buffer instead of having to go through the db.

commit: expose the different kinds of errors

2016-02-16T13:06:48+00:00

We should be checking whether the object we're looking up is a commit,
and we should let the caller know whether the not-found return code
comes from a bad object type or just a missing signature.

Introduce git_commit_extract_signature

2016-02-09T14:58:16+00:00

This returns the GPG signature for a commit and its contents without the
signature block, allowing for the verification of the commit's
signature.

commit: introduce `git_commit_body`

2015-12-01T09:07:00+00:00

It is already possible to get a commit's summary with the
`git_commit_summary` function. It is not possible to get the
remaining part of the commit message, that is the commit
message's body.

Fix this by introducing a new function `git_commit_body`.

commit: allow retrieving an arbitrary header field

2015-06-22T13:56:31+00:00

This allows the user to look up fields which we don't parse in libgit2,
and allows them to access gpgsig or mergetag fields if they wish to
check the signature.

commit: safer commit creation with reference update

2014-04-29T22:41:37+00:00

The current version of the commit creation and amend function are unsafe
to use when passing the update_ref parameter, as they do not check that
the reference at the moment of update points to what the user expects.

Make sure that we're moving history forward when we ask the library to
update the reference for us by checking that the first parent of the new
commit is the current value of the reference. We also make sure that the
ref we're updating hasn't moved between the read and the write.

Similarly, when amending a commit, make sure that the current tip of the
branch is the commit we're amending.

Add git_commit_amend API

2014-02-08T00:17:59+00:00

This adds an API to amend an existing commit, basically a shorthand
for creating a new commit filling in missing parameters from the
values of an existing commit.  As part of this, I also added a new
"sys" API to create a commit using a callback to get the parents.
This allowed me to rewrite all the other commit creation APIs so
that temporary allocations are no longer needed.

Introduce git_revert to revert a single commit

2013-12-02T22:57:41+00:00
