    • I broke your bindings · 72a3fe42
      Hey. Apologies in advance -- I broke your bindings.
      
      This is a major commit that includes a long-overdue redesign of the
      whole object-database structure. This is expected to be the last major
      external API redesign of the library until the first non-alpha release.
      
      Please get your bindings up to date with these changes. They will be
      included in the next minor release. Sorry again!
      
      Major features include:
      
      	- Real caching and refcounting on parsed objects
      	- Real caching and refcounting on objects read from the ODB
      	- Streaming writes & reads from the ODB
      	- Single-method writes for all object types
      	- The external API is now partially thread-safe
      
      The speed increases are significant in all aspects, specially when
      reading an object several times from the ODB (revwalking) and when
      writing big objects to the ODB.
      
      Here's a full changelog for the external API:
      
      blob.h
      ------
      
      	- Remove `git_blob_new`
      	- Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent`
      	- Remove `git_blob_set_rawcontent_fromfile`
      	- Rename `git_blob_writefile` -> `git_blob_create_fromfile`
      	- Change `git_blob_create_fromfile`:
      		The `path` argument is now relative to the repository's working dir
      	- Add `git_blob_create_frombuffer`
      
      commit.h
      --------
      
      	- Remove `git_commit_new`
      	- Remove `git_commit_add_parent`

      	- Remove `git_commit_set_author`
      	- Remove `git_commit_set_tree`
      
      	- Add `git_commit_create`
      	- Add `git_commit_create_v`
      	- Add `git_commit_create_o`
      	- Add `git_commit_create_ov`

      tree.h
      ------
      
      	- Change `git_tree_entry_2object`:
      		New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)`
      
      	- Remove `git_tree_new`

      	- Remove `git_object_write`
      
      	- Change `git_object_close`:

      	- Change `git_odb_read_header`:
      		New signature is `(size_t *len_p, git_otype *type_p, git_odb *db, const git_oid *id)`
      	- Remove `git_odb_write`
      	- Add `git_odb_open_wstream`
      	- Add `git_odb_open_rstream`
      
      odb_backend.h
      -------------
      
      	- Change type `git_odb_backend`:
      		New internal signatures are as follows
      
      			int (* read)(void **, size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
      			int (* read_header)(size_t *, git_otype *, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
      			int (* writestream)(struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, size_t, git_otype)
      			int (* readstream)( struct git_odb_stream **, struct git_odb_backend *, const git_oid *)
      
      	- Add type `git_odb_stream`
      	- Add enum `git_odb_streammode`

    • libgit2 version 0.10.0, "very disco" · 7064938b
      A version *so* awesome that needs 2 version bumps AND a codename.
      
      Major features:
      
      	- New internal garbage collection (harder)
      	- Pack backend rewritten from scratch (better)
      	- Revision walker rewritten from scratch (faster)
      	- New object interdependency system (stronger)
      	- Unique OID shortener
      	- Reference listing

    • Fix the retarded object interdependency system · 6b2a1941
      It's no longer retarded. All object interdependencies are stored as OIDs
      instead of actual objects. This should be hundreds of times faster,
      specially on big repositories. Heck, who knows, maye it doesn't even
      segfault -- wouldn't that be awesome?
      
      What has changed on the API?
      
      	`git_commit_parent`, `git_commit_tree`, `git_tag_target` now return
      	their values through a pointer-to-pointer, and have an error code.
      
      	`git_commit_set_tree` and `git_tag_set_target` now return an error
      	code and may fail.
      
      	`git_repository_free__no_gc` has been deprecated because it's
      	stupid. Since there are no longer any interdependencies between
      	objects, we don't need internal reference counting, and GC
      	never fails or double-free's pointers.
      
      	`git_object_close` now does a very sane thing: marks an object
      	as unused. Closed objects will be eventually free'd from the
      	object cache based on LRU. Please use `git_object_close` from
      	the garbage collector `destroy` method on your bindings. It's
      	100% safe.
      
      	`git_repository_gc` is a new method that forces a garbage collector
      	pass through the repo, to free as many LRU objects as possible.
      	This is useful if we are running out of memory.

    • Add new method `git_reference_listall` · 00571828
      Lists all the references in a repository. Listing may be filtered by
      reference type.
      
      This should applease Lord Clem.

    • Rewrite the Pack backend · 58d06cf1
      The new pack backend is an adaptation of the original git.git code in
      `sha1_file.c`. It's slightly faster than the previous version and
      severely less memory-hungry.
      
      The call-stack of a normal pack backend query has been properly
      documented in the top of the header for future reference. And by
      properly I mean with ASCII diagrams 'n shit.

    • Rewrite the Revision Walker · 71db842f
      The new revision walker uses an internal Commit object storage system,
      custom memory allocator and much improved topological and time sorting
      algorithms. It's about 20x times faster than the previous implementation
      when browsing big repositories.
      
      The following external API calls have changed:
      
      	`git_revwalk_next` returns an OID instead of a full commit object.
      	The initial call to `git_revwalk_next` is no longer blocking when
      	iterating through a repo with a time-sorting mode.
      
      	Iterating with Topological or inverted modes still makes the initial
      	call blocking to preprocess the commit list, but this block should be
      	mostly unnoticeable on most repositories (topological preprocessing
      	times at 0.3s on the git.git repo).
      
      	`git_revwalk_push` and `git_revwalk_hide` now take an OID instead
      	of a full commit object.
