10 * Function type for combining two notes annotating the same object.
12 * When adding a new note annotating the same object as an existing note, it is
13 * up to the caller to decide how to combine the two notes. The decision is
14 * made by passing in a function of the following form. The function accepts
15 * two object_ids -- of the existing note and the new note, respectively. The
16 * function then combines the notes in whatever way it sees fit, and writes the
17 * resulting oid into the first argument (cur_oid). A non-zero return
18 * value indicates failure.
20 * The two given object_ids shall both be non-NULL and different from each
21 * other. Either of them (but not both) may be == null_oid, which indicates an
22 * empty/non-existent note. If the resulting oid (cur_oid) is == null_oid,
23 * the note will be removed from the notes tree.
25 * The default combine_notes function (you get this when passing NULL) is
26 * combine_notes_concatenate(), which appends the contents of the new note to
27 * the contents of the existing note.

43 * Notes tree object
45 * Encapsulates the internal notes tree structure associated with a notes ref.
46 * Whenever a struct notes_tree pointer is required below, you may pass NULL in
47 * order to use the default/internal notes tree. E.g. you only need to pass a
48 * non-NULL value if you need to refer to several different notes trees
49 * simultaneously.

62 * Return the default notes ref.
64 * The default notes ref is the notes ref that is used when notes_ref == NULL
65 * is passed to init_notes().
67 * This the first of the following to be defined:
68 * 1. The '--ref' option to 'git notes', if given
69 * 2. The $GIT_NOTES_REF environment variable, if set
70 * 3. The value of the core.notesRef config variable, if set
71 * 4. GIT_NOTES_DEFAULT_REF (i.e. "refs/notes/commits")
73 const char *default_notes_ref(void);
76 * Flags controlling behaviour of notes tree initialization
78 * Default behaviour is to initialize the notes tree from the tree object
79 * specified by the given (or default) notes ref.
81 #define NOTES_INIT_EMPTY 1
84 * By default, the notes tree is only readable, and the notes ref can be
85 * any treeish. The notes tree can however be made writable with this flag,
86 * in which case only strict ref names can be used.
88 #define NOTES_INIT_WRITABLE 2
91 * Initialize the given notes_tree with the notes tree structure at the given
92 * ref. If given ref is NULL, the value of the $GIT_NOTES_REF environment
93 * variable is used, and if that is missing, the default notes ref is used
94 * ("refs/notes/commits").
96 * If you need to re-initialize a notes_tree structure (e.g. when switching from
97 * one notes ref to another), you must first de-initialize the notes_tree
98 * structure by calling free_notes(struct notes_tree *).
100 * If you pass t == NULL, the default internal notes_tree will be initialized.
102 * The combine_notes function that is passed becomes the default combine_notes
103 * function for the given notes_tree. If NULL is passed, the default
104 * combine_notes function is combine_notes_concatenate().
106 * Precondition: The notes_tree structure is zeroed (this can be achieved with
107 * memset(t, 0, sizeof(struct notes_tree)))
109 void init_notes(struct notes_tree *t, const char *notes_ref,
110 combine_notes_fn combine_notes, int flags);
113 * Add the given note object to the given notes_tree structure
115 * If there already exists a note for the given object_sha1, the given
116 * combine_notes function is invoked to break the tie. If not given (i.e.
117 * combine_notes == NULL), the default combine_notes function for the given
118 * notes_tree is used.
120 * Passing note_sha1 == null_sha1 indicates the addition of an
121 * empty/non-existent note. This is a (potentially expensive) no-op unless
122 * there already exists a note for the given object_sha1, AND combining that
123 * note with the empty note (using the given combine_notes function) results
124 * in a new/changed note.
126 * Returns zero on success; non-zero means combine_notes failed.
128 * IMPORTANT: The changes made by add_note() to the given notes_tree structure
129 * are not persistent until a subsequent call to write_notes_tree() returns
130 * zero.

136 * Remove the given note object from the given notes_tree structure
138 * IMPORTANT: The changes made by remove_note() to the given notes_tree
139 * structure are not persistent until a subsequent call to write_notes_tree()
140 * returns zero.
142 * Return 0 if a note was removed; 1 if there was no note to remove.
144 int remove_note(struct notes_tree *t, const unsigned char *object_sha1);
147 * Get the note object SHA1 containing the note data for the given object
149 * Return NULL if the given object has no notes.

152 const struct object_id *object_oid);
155 * Copy a note from one object to another in the given notes_tree.
157 * Returns 1 if the to_obj already has a note and 'force' is false. Otherwise,
158 * returns non-zero if 'force' is true, but the given combine_notes function
159 * failed to combine from_obj's note with to_obj's existing note.
160 * Returns zero on success.
162 * IMPORTANT: The changes made by copy_note() to the given notes_tree structure
163 * are not persistent until a subsequent call to write_notes_tree() returns
164 * zero.

171 * Flags controlling behaviour of for_each_note()
173 * Default behaviour of for_each_note() is to traverse every single note object
174 * in the given notes tree, unpacking subtree entries along the way.
175 * The following flags can be used to alter the default behaviour:
177 * - DONT_UNPACK_SUBTREES causes for_each_note() NOT to unpack and recurse into
178 * subtree entries while traversing the notes tree. This causes notes within
179 * those subtrees NOT to be passed to the callback. Use this flag if you
180 * don't want to traverse _all_ notes, but only want to traverse the parts
181 * of the notes tree that have already been unpacked (this includes at least
182 * all notes that have been added/changed).
184 * - YIELD_SUBTREES causes any subtree entries that are encountered to be
185 * passed to the callback, before recursing into them. Subtree entries are
186 * not note objects, but represent intermediate directories in the notes
187 * tree. When passed to the callback, subtree entries will have a trailing
188 * slash in their path, which the callback may use to differentiate between
189 * note entries and subtree entries. Note that already-unpacked subtree
190 * entries are not part of the notes tree, and will therefore not be yielded.
191 * If this flag is used together with DONT_UNPACK_SUBTREES, for_each_note()
192 * will yield the subtree entry, but not recurse into it.
194 #define FOR_EACH_NOTE_DONT_UNPACK_SUBTREES 1
195 #define FOR_EACH_NOTE_YIELD_SUBTREES 2
198 * Invoke the specified callback function for each note in the given notes_tree
200 * If the callback returns nonzero, the note walk is aborted, and the return
201 * value from the callback is returned from for_each_note(). Hence, a zero
202 * return value from for_each_note() indicates that all notes were walked
203 * successfully.
205 * IMPORTANT: The callback function is NOT allowed to change the notes tree.
206 * In other words, the following functions can NOT be invoked (on the current
207 * notes tree) from within the callback:
208 * - add_note()
209 * - remove_note()
210 * - copy_note()
211 * - free_notes()
