    • str: introduce `git_str` for internal, `git_buf` is external · f0e693b1
      libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by
      `git_buf`.  We require:
      
      1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs
         for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc).
      2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they
         can take ownership of.
      
      By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have
      confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and
      reasoning about correctness is also difficult.
      
      Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents
      its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class.  The name also
      is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr").
      
      The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint.  It
      is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that
      follow the documentation.  (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to
      avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.)
      
      Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a
      `git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it
      back again.

    • Add sorted cache data type · 0b7cdc02
      This adds a convenient new data type for caching the contents of
      file in memory when each item in that file corresponds to a name
      and you need to both be able to lookup items by name and iterate
      over them in some sorted order.  The new data type has locks in
      place to manage usage in a threaded environment.
