docs: fix statement about tab width

diff: fix enum value being out of allowed range
Edward Thomson committed -
The libgit2 project mostly follows the coding style of git and thus the linux project. While those two projects use a recommended tab width of eight spaces, we instruct users to set their editor's tab width to four spaces. Fix this to say eight instead.

The C89 standard states in §6.7.2.2 "Enumeration specifiers": > The expression that defines the value of an enumeration constant shall > be an integer constant expression that has a value representable as an > int. On most platforms, this effectively limits the range to a 32 bit signed integer. The enum `git_diff_option_t` though recently gained an entry `GIT_DIFF_INDENT_HEURISTIC = (1u << 31)`, which breaks this limit. Fix the issue by using a gap in `git_diff_option_t`'s enum values. While this has the benefit of retaining our API, it may break applications which do not get recompiled after upgrading libgit2. But as we are bumping the soversion on each release anyway and thus force a recompile of dependents, this is not a problem.

The function `git_packfile_stream_free` frees all state of the packfile stream without freeing the structure itself. This naming makes it hard to spot whether it will try to free the pointer itself or not, causing potential future errors. Due to this reason, we have decided to name a function freeing state without freeing the actual struture a "dispose" function. Rename `git_packfile_stream_free` to `git_packfile_stream_dispose` as a first example following this rule.

We've introduced a manifest for the clib version system that includes a version number; we should update it at release time to correspond with the version number in the header.

This PR introduces a new top-level file, `package.json`, which enables this repository compatibility with [`clib`](https://github.com/clibs/clib), an open source C package manager. By doing this, users of `clib` can quickly include the `libgit2` library within their project.

Custom memory allocators
Patrick Steinhardt committed -

Tie in the newly created infrastructure for swapping out memory allocators into our settings code. A user can now simply use the new option "GIT_OPT_SET_ALLOCATOR" with `git_libgit2_opts`, passing in an already initialized allocator structure as vararg.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Currently, our memory allocators are being redirected to the correct implementation at compile time by simply using macros. In order to make them swappable at runtime, this commit reshuffles that by instead making use of a global "git_allocator" structure, whose pointers are set up to reference the allocator functions. Like this, it becomes easy to swap out allocators by simply setting these function pointers. In order to initialize a "git_allocator", our provided allocators "stdalloc" and "crtdbg" both provide an init function. This is being called to initialize a passed in allocator struct and set up its members correctly. No support is yet included to enable users of libgit2 to switch out the memory allocator at a global level.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Our desired architecture would make allocators completely pluggable, such that users of libgit2 can swap out memory allocators at runtime. While making e.g. debugging easier by not having to do a separate build, this feature can also help maintainers of bindings for libgit2 by tying the memory allocations into the other language's memory system. In order to do so, though, we first need to make our two different pre-existing allocators "stdalloc" and "crtdbg" have the same function signatures, as the "crtdbg" allocators all have an additional file and line argument. This is required to build correct stack traces for debugging memory allocations. As that feature may also be interesting to authors of other applications for debugging libgit2, we now simply add these arguments to our standard allocators. Obviously, this may come with a performance penalty. During some simple benchmarks no real impact could be measured though in contrast to a simple pluggable allocator. The following table summarizes the benchmarks. There were three different builds with our current standard allocator ("standard"), with pluggable authenticators accessed via function pointers ("pluggable") and for pluggable authenticators with file and line being added ("fileline"). Furthermore, there were three scenarios for 100.000.000 allocations of 100B ("small alloc"), 100.000.000 allocations of 100KB ("medium alloc"), and 1.000.000 allocations of 100MB. All results are best of 10 runs. |------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | build/test | small alloc | medium alloc | big alloc | |------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | standard | 4539779566, +0.0% | 5912927186, +0.0% | 5166935308, +0.0% | |------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | pluggable | 4611074505, +1.5% | 5979185308, +1.1% | 5388776352, +4.2% | |------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | fileline | 4588338192, +1.1% | 6004951910, +1.5% | 4942528135, -4.4% | |------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| As can be seen, there is a performance overhead for pluggable allocators. Furthermore, it can also be seen that there is some big variance between runs, especially in the "big alloc" scenario. This is probably being caused by nondeterministic behaviour in the kernel for dynamic allocations. Still, it can be observed that there should be no real difference between the "pluggable" and "fileline" allocators.

Our "util.h" header is a grabbag of various different functions, where many don't have a clear group they belong to. Our set of allocator functions though can be clearly singled out as a single group of functions that always belongs together. Furthermore, we will need to implement additional functions relating to our allocators subsystem when moving to pluggable allocators. Thus, we should just move these functions into their own "alloc" module.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Right now, the standard allocator is being declared as part of the "util.h" header as a set of inline functions. As with the crtdbg allocator functions, these inline functions make it hard to convert to function pointers for our allocators. Create a new "stdalloc" module containing our standard allocations functions to split these out. Convert the existing allocators to macros which make use of the stdalloc functions.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
Currently, the `git__free` function is being defined in a single place, only, disregarding whether we use our standard allocators or the crtdbg allocators. This makes it a bit harder to convert our code base to use pluggable allocators, and furthermore makes the border between our two allocators a bit more blurry. Implement a separate `git__crtdbg__free` function for the crtdbg allocator in order to completely separate both allocator implementations.
Patrick Steinhardt committed -
The crtdbg allocators are currently being implemented as inline functions as part of the "w32_crtdbg_stacktrace.h" header. As we are moving towards pluggable allocators with the help of function pointers, though, we cannot make use of inlining anymore. Instead, we can only have a single implementation of these allocating functions. Move all implementations of the crtdbg allocators into "w32_crtdbg_stacktrace.c".
