Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy	13f8b72d8c	Convert commit_tree() to take strbuf as message There wan't a way for commit_tree() to notice if the message the caller prepared contained a NUL byte, as it did not take the length of the message as a parameter. Use a pointer to a strbuf instead, so that we can either choose to allow low-level plumbing commands to make commits that contain NUL byte in its message, or forbid NUL everywhere by adding the check in commit_tree(), in later patches.

Junio C Hamano	ba3c69a9ee	commit: teach --gpg-sign option This uses the gpg-interface.[ch] to allow signing the commit, i.e. $ git commit --gpg-sign -m foo You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user: "Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>" 4096-bit RSA key, ID 96AFE6CB, created 2011-10-03 (main key ID 713660A7) [master 8457d13] foo 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) The lines of GPG detached signature are placed in a new multi-line header field, instead of tucking the signature block at the end of the commit log message text (similar to how signed tag is done), for multiple reasons: - The signature won't clutter output from "git log" and friends if it is in the extra header. If we place it at the end of the log message, we would need to teach "git log" and friends to strip the signature block with an option. - Teaching new versions of "git log" and "gitk" to optionally verify and show signatures is cleaner if we structurally know where the signature block is (instead of scanning in the commit log message). - The signature needs to be stripped upon various commit rewriting operations, e.g. rebase, filter-branch, etc. They all already ignore unknown headers, but if we place signature in the log message, all of these tools (and third-party tools) also need to learn how a signature block would look like. - When we added the optional encoding header, all the tools (both in tree and third-party) that acts on the raw commit object should have been fixed to ignore headers they do not understand, so it is not like that new header would be more likely to break than extra text in the commit. A commit made with the above sample sequence would look like this: $ git cat-file commit HEAD tree 3cd71d90e3db4136e5260ab54599791c4f883b9d parent b87755351a47b09cb27d6913e6e0e17e6254a4d4 author Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1317862251 -0700 committer Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1317862251 -0700 gpgsig -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJOjPtrAAoJELC16IaWr+bL4TMP/RSe2Y/jYnCkds9unO5JEnfG ... =dt98 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- foo but "git log" (unless you ask for it with --pretty=raw) output is not cluttered with the signature information.

Johan Herland	180619a585	notes.h/c: Propagate combine_notes_fn return value to add_note() and beyond The combine_notes_fn functions uses a non-zero return value to indicate failure. However, this return value was converted to a call to die() in note_tree_insert(). Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately. Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note() and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note() return value instead. This patch has been improved by the following contributions: - Jonathan Nieder: Future-proof by always checking add_note() return value - Jonathan Nieder: Improve clarity of final if-condition in note_tree_insert() Thanks-to: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	14 years ago
Jeff King	a941d5e395	introduce notes-cache interface Notes provide a fast lookup mechanism for data keyed by sha1. This is ideal for caching certain operations, like textconv filters. This patch builds some infrastructure to make it simpler to use notes trees as caches. In particular, caches: 1. don't have arbitrary commit messages. They store a cache validity string in the commit, and clear the tree when the cache validity string changes. 2. don't keep any commit history. The accumulated history of a a cache is just useless cruft. 3. use a looser form of locking for ref updates. If two processes try to write to the cache simultaneously, it is OK if one overwrites the other, losing some changes. It's just a cache, so we will just end up with an extra miss.
