gitattributes API
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
gitattributes mechanism gives a uniform way to associate various
|
|
attributes to set of paths.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Data Structure
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
`struct git_attr`::
|
|
|
|
An attribute is an opaque object that is identified by its name.
|
|
Pass the name to `git_attr()` function to obtain the object of
|
|
this type. The internal representation of this structure is
|
|
of no interest to the calling programs. The name of the
|
|
attribute can be retrieved by calling `git_attr_name()`.
|
|
|
|
`struct attr_check_item`::
|
|
|
|
This structure represents one attribute and its value.
|
|
|
|
`struct attr_check`::
|
|
|
|
This structure represents a collection of `attr_check_item`.
|
|
It is passed to `git_check_attr()` function, specifying the
|
|
attributes to check, and receives their values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Attribute Values
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
An attribute for a path can be in one of four states: Set, Unset,
|
|
Unspecified or set to a string, and `.value` member of `struct
|
|
attr_check_item` records it. There are three macros to check these:
|
|
|
|
`ATTR_TRUE()`::
|
|
|
|
Returns true if the attribute is Set for the path.
|
|
|
|
`ATTR_FALSE()`::
|
|
|
|
Returns true if the attribute is Unset for the path.
|
|
|
|
`ATTR_UNSET()`::
|
|
|
|
Returns true if the attribute is Unspecified for the path.
|
|
|
|
If none of the above returns true, `.value` member points at a string
|
|
value of the attribute for the path.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Querying Specific Attributes
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Prepare `struct attr_check` using attr_check_initl()
|
|
function, enumerating the names of attributes whose values you are
|
|
interested in, terminated with a NULL pointer. Alternatively, an
|
|
empty `struct attr_check` can be prepared by calling
|
|
`attr_check_alloc()` function and then attributes you want to
|
|
ask about can be added to it with `attr_check_append()`
|
|
function.
|
|
|
|
* Call `git_check_attr()` to check the attributes for the path.
|
|
|
|
* Inspect `attr_check` structure to see how each of the
|
|
attribute in the array is defined for the path.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
To see how attributes "crlf" and "ident" are set for different paths.
|
|
|
|
. Prepare a `struct attr_check` with two elements (because
|
|
we are checking two attributes):
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
static struct attr_check *check;
|
|
static void setup_check(void)
|
|
{
|
|
if (check)
|
|
return; /* already done */
|
|
check = attr_check_initl("crlf", "ident", NULL);
|
|
}
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
. Call `git_check_attr()` with the prepared `struct attr_check`:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
const char *path;
|
|
|
|
setup_check();
|
|
git_check_attr(path, check);
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
. Act on `.value` member of the result, left in `check->items[]`:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
const char *value = check->items[0].value;
|
|
|
|
if (ATTR_TRUE(value)) {
|
|
The attribute is Set, by listing only the name of the
|
|
attribute in the gitattributes file for the path.
|
|
} else if (ATTR_FALSE(value)) {
|
|
The attribute is Unset, by listing the name of the
|
|
attribute prefixed with a dash - for the path.
|
|
} else if (ATTR_UNSET(value)) {
|
|
The attribute is neither set nor unset for the path.
|
|
} else if (!strcmp(value, "input")) {
|
|
If none of ATTR_TRUE(), ATTR_FALSE(), or ATTR_UNSET() is
|
|
true, the value is a string set in the gitattributes
|
|
file for the path by saying "attr=value".
|
|
} else if (... other check using value as string ...) {
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
To see how attributes in argv[] are set for different paths, only
|
|
the first step in the above would be different.
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
static struct attr_check *check;
|
|
static void setup_check(const char **argv)
|
|
{
|
|
check = attr_check_alloc();
|
|
while (*argv) {
|
|
struct git_attr *attr = git_attr(*argv);
|
|
attr_check_append(check, attr);
|
|
argv++;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Querying All Attributes
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
To get the values of all attributes associated with a file:
|
|
|
|
* Prepare an empty `attr_check` structure by calling
|
|
`attr_check_alloc()`.
|
|
|
|
* Call `git_all_attrs()`, which populates the `attr_check`
|
|
with the attributes attached to the path.
|
|
|
|
* Iterate over the `attr_check.items[]` array to examine
|
|
the attribute names and values. The name of the attribute
|
|
described by a `attr_check.items[]` object can be retrieved via
|
|
`git_attr_name(check->items[i].attr)`. (Please note that no items
|
|
will be returned for unset attributes, so `ATTR_UNSET()` will return
|
|
false for all returned `attr_check.items[]` objects.)
|
|
|
|
* Free the `attr_check` struct by calling `attr_check_free()`.
