Erik Faye-Lund	ae6a5609c0	run-command: support custom fd-set in async 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 <kusmabite@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Shawn O. Pearce	4f41b61148	run-command: Allow stderr to be a caller supplied pipe 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.

Miklos Vajna	9e18522328	run-command documentation: fix "memset()" parameter When initializing the struct async and struct child_process structures, the documentation suggested "clearing" the structure with '0' instead of '\0'. It is enough to use integer zero here. Signed-off-by: Miklos Vajna <vmiklos@frugalware.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	17 years ago
Christian Couder	ce2cf27adc	run-command: Redirect stderr to a pipe before redirecting stdout to stderr With this patch, in the 'start_command' function after forking we now take care of stderr in the child process before stdout. This way if 'start_command' is called with a 'child_process' argument like this: .err = -1; .stdout_to_stderr = 1; then stderr will be redirected to a pipe before stdout is redirected to stderr. So we can now get the process' stdout from the pipe (as well as its stderr). Earlier such a call would have redirected stdout to stderr before stderr was itself redirected, and therefore stdout would not have followed stderr, which would not have been very useful anyway. Update documentation in 'api-run-command.txt' accordingly.

Junio C Hamano	530e741c72	Start preparing the API documents. Most of them are still stubs, but the procedure to build the HTML documentation, maintaining the index and installing the end product are there. I placed names of people who are likely to know the most about the topic in the stub files, so that volunteers will know whom to ask questions as needed.
