gix-index v0.39.0

on GitHub

New Features

• Add From<gix_object::tree::EntryKind> for entry::Mode
  That way it's easier to add new entries to the index.
• add State::remove_(tree|resolve_undo)() to remove possibly outdated extensions.
• add State::remove_entry_at_index(pos) by position.

Other

• Expand from_fs doc
  This expands and slightly corrects the gix_index::entry::from_fs
  documentation:

  • To be more precise about the expectation of where the metadata
    come from (it needn't specifically be the symlink_metadata
    function, and it is sometimes even an fstat-like function
    rather than an lstat-like function, though not stat).

  • To mention that default values are used for unavailable data.

  • To mention that truncation is sometimes performed on some fields.

  Comments are also updated regarding some cases of truncation: why
  casting down to 32-bit should be okay for st_dev and st_ino
  (see #1817).

Changed (BREAKING)

• adjust error return types to handle collision detection
  This does mean a lot of churn across the tree, but the change is
  usually just an adjustment to variants of an existing error type,
  so I expect that most downstream users will require little to no
  adaption for this change.
• use separate error type for I/O hashing operations
  Prepare for hashing becoming fallible.
• adjust hash verification return types for the common interface
  This mostly just affects return types – using
  git_hash::verify::Error instead of bespoke duplicated versions
  thereof, and occasionally returning an ObjectId instead of ()
  for convenience.
