* add an extra level of indirection to main()Jeff King2016-07-01

In some cases this is just to improve the quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In others it is a requirement for using certain functions in libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called git_extract_argv0_path()). Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c version of main(). However, there are still a few external commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are not always consistent. Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can run this standard startup. We basically have two options to do this: - the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a wrapper that calls mingw_startup(). The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the preprocessor. The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is quietly inserting new code. - the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(), and git.c's main() calls them. This is much more explicit, which may make things more obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_ cmd_foo() to call). The downside is that each of the builtins must define cmd_foo(), instead of just main(). This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is linked against. We link common-main.o against anything that links against libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main() function automatically (it has no callers). The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main(). I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which means that all of the programs also need to match its signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to "const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well. This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature (which also matches the way builtins are defined).

* replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()Christian Couder2013-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API functions. The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this: $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c | grep -v strbuf\\.c | xargs perl -pi -e ' s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g; s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g; s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g; s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g; ' on the result of preparatory changes in this series.

* string_list_longest_prefix(): remove functionMichael Haggerty2012-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function was added in f103f95b11d087f07c0c48bf784cd9197e18f203 in the erroneous expectation that it would be used in the reimplementation of longest_ancestor_length(). But it turned out to be easier to use a function specialized for comparing path prefixes (i.e., one that knows about slashes and root paths) than to prepare the paths in such a way that a generic string prefix comparison function can be used. So delete string_list_longest_prefix() and its documentation and test cases. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
* test-string-list.c: Fix some sparse warningsRamsay Jones2012-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In particular, sparse complains as follows: SP test-string-list.c test-string-list.c:10:6: warning: symbol 'parse_string_list' was not \ declared. Should it be static? test-string-list.c:18:6: warning: symbol 'write_list' was not \ declared. Should it be static? test-string-list.c:25:6: warning: symbol 'write_list_compact' was not \ declared. Should it be static? test-string-list.c:38:5: warning: symbol 'prefix_cb' was not \ declared. Should it be static? In order to suppress the warnings, since the above symbols do not need more than file scope, we simply include the static modifier in their declaration.

* string_list: add two new functions for splitting stringsMichael Haggerty2012-09-12
Add two new functions, string_list_split() and string_list_split_in_place(). These split a string into a string_list on a separator character. The first makes copies of the substrings (leaving the input string untouched) and the second splits the original string in place, overwriting the separator characters with NULs and referring to the original string's memory. These functions are similar to the strbuf_split_*() functions except that they work with the more powerful string_list interface.
