gix-ref v0.63.0

on GitHub

New Features

• add Category::is_remote_tracking_branch().
  Mere convenience.

Bug Fixes

• don't fail reflog creation if newlines are used in the configured user name

  Look at #2491 and compare this with what Git at /Users/b
  yron/dev/github.com/git/git does. I think it will allow newlines and just trim whitespace. Once validat
  ed, create a test in gix-ref to reproduce the issue, then fix it.

New Features (BREAKING)

• add sha-256 support to gix-ref.
  This predominantly restricts parsing so it won't allow any hash
  but the one that was passed.

Bug Fixes (BREAKING)

• Limit Commit and Tag parsing to a given gix_hash::Kind
  Doing so adds conformity with Git, but also simplifies the parser
  which now only parse hex-hashes of a single valid length.

• remove winnow and replace it with hand-implemented parsers everywhere.
  This will allow for simplified maintenance and editing (both human and machine)
  down the road, and enable additional performance optimisations.

  Parser compbinators to me ultimately were a failed experiment as I couldn't maintain
  them anyway, with it being too difficult for me to grasp and express everything
  in its very own kind of language, with a lot of different things to consider.

  Note that this also removes detailed errors from all parsers that previously
  used winnow, with the option to re-add those if there is demand.
