git-repository v0.17.0

on GitHub

New Features

• Add Repository::head_name().
  A convenient way to obtain the name of a head, if not detached.

Bug Fixes

• Commit::describe() now returns annnotated tags before lighweight ones and prefers more recent ones as well
• Support for in truncated history in git-describe
  This allows describe() to work on shallow clones.

Other

• allow reading information about remote branch

• :discover()now returns the shortest path. If and only if it canonicalized the source path. That way, users will still get a familiar path. This is due toparent()not operating in the file system, which otherwise would be equivalent to..`,
  but that's not how we work.

  Maybe we should overhaul the way this works to use ../ instead
  and just 'absoluteize' the path later (std::path::absolute()) is
  on the way for that.

• remove unused variant

Changed (BREAKING)

• integrate trust model into repository discovery
  That way it's possible to ignore repositories which effectively
  aren't owned by the current user, or to not ignore them (default)
  but assign tigher permissions to the repository.

• path::discover::existing() -> path::discover()

• remove values::*Error in favor of value::parse::Error.
  This makes it easier to work with errors in practice, we are either
  interested in the value that failed to parse to try something else
  or want a nice user message.

  Having one decode error type facilitates that.

New Features (BREAKING)

• use git-credentials in git-protocol
