    • Remove unused methods · 06c43821
      The direct-writes commit left some (slow) internals methods that
      were no longer needed. These have been removed.
      
      Also, the Reflog code was using the old `git_signature__write`, so
      it has been rewritten to use a normal buffer and the new `writebuf`
      signature writer. It's now slightly simpler and faster.

    • odb: Direct writes are back · afeecf4f
      DIRECT WRITES ARE BACK AND FASTER THAN EVER. The streaming writer to the
      ODB was an overkill for the smaller objects like Commit and Tags; most
      of the streaming logic was taking too long.
      
      This commit makes Commits, Tags and Trees to be built-up in memory, and
      then written to disk in 2 pushes (header + data), instead of streaming
      everything.
      
      This is *always* faster, even for big files (since the git_filebuf class
      still does streaming writes when the memory cache overflows). This is
      also a gazillion lines of code smaller, because we don't have to
      precompute the final size of the object before starting the stream (this
      was kind of defeating the point of streaming, anyway).
      
      Blobs are still written with full streaming instead of loading them in
      memory, since this is still the fastest way.
      
      A new `git_buf` class has been added. It's missing some features, but
      it'll get there.

    • fileops: Cleanup · f79026b4
      Cleaned up the structure of the whole OS-abstraction layer.
      
      fileops.c now contains a set of utility methods for file management used
      by the library. These are abstractions on top of the original POSIX
      calls.
      
      There's a new file called `posix.c` that contains
      emulations/reimplementations of all the POSIX calls the library uses.
      These are prefixed with `p_`. There's a specific posix file for each
      platform (win32 and unix).
      
      All the path-related methods have been moved from `utils.c` to `path.c`
      and have their own prefix.

    • Remove redundant methods from the API · d5afc039
      A bunch of redundant methods have been removed from the external API.
      
      - All the reference/tag creation methods with `_f` are gone. The force
      flag is now passed as an argument to the normal create methods.
      
      - All the different commit creation methods are gone; commit creation
      now always requires a `git_commit` pointer for parents and a `git_tree`
      pointer for tree, to ensure that corrupted commits cannot be generated.
      
      - All the different tag creation methods are gone; tag creation now
      always requires a `git_object` pointer to ensure that tags are not
      created to inexisting objects.

    • 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_message`
      	- Remove `git_commit_set_committer`
      	- 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`

      -----
      
      	- Remove `git_tag_new`
      	- Remove `git_tag_set_target`
      	- Remove `git_tag_set_name`
      	- Remove `git_tag_set_tagger`
      	- Remove `git_tag_set_message`
      
      	- Add `git_tag_create`
      	- Add `git_tag_create_o`
      
      tree.h
      ------
      
      	- Change `git_tree_entry_2object`:
      		New signature is `(git_object **object_out, git_repository *repo, git_tree_entry *entry)`

      	- 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`

      	- 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 enum `git_odb_streammode`

    • 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.

    • Implement reference counting for git_objects · 48c27f86
      All `git_object` instances looked up from the repository are reference
      counted. User is expected to use the new `git_object_close` when an
      object is no longer needed to force freeing it.

    • Change the object creation/lookup API · 5de079b8
      The methods previously known as
      
      	git_repository_lookup
      	git_repository_newobject
      	git_repository_lookup_ref
      
      are now part of their respective namespaces:
      
      	git_object_lookup
      	git_object_new
      	git_reference_lookup
      
      This makes the API more consistent with the new references API.
