Overview ¶
Package packfile implements encoding and decoding of packfile format.
== pack-*.pack files have the following format: - A header appears at the beginning and consists of the following: 4-byte signature: The signature is: {'P', 'A', 'C', 'K'} 4-byte version number (network byte order): GIT currently accepts version number 2 or 3 but generates version 2 only. 4-byte number of objects contained in the pack (network byte order) Observation: we cannot have more than 4G versions ;-) and more than 4G objects in a pack. - The header is followed by number of object entries, each of which looks like this: (undeltified representation) n-byte type and length (3-bit type, (n-1)*7+4-bit length) compressed data (deltified representation) n-byte type and length (3-bit type, (n-1)*7+4-bit length) 20-byte base object name compressed delta data Observation: length of each object is encoded in a variable length format and is not constrained to 32-bit or anything. - The trailer records 20-byte SHA1 checksum of all of the above.

Functions ¶
func ApplyDelta ¶
func ApplyDelta(target, base plumbing.EncodedObject, delta []byte) error
ApplyDelta writes to target the result of applying the modification deltas in delta to base.
func GetDelta ¶
func GetDelta(base, target plumbing.EncodedObject) (plumbing.EncodedObject, error)
GetDelta returns an EncodedObject of type OFSDeltaObject. Base and Target object, will be loaded into memory to be able to create the delta object. To generate target again, you will need the obtained object and "base" one. Error will be returned if base or target object cannot be read.
func PatchDelta ¶
PatchDelta returns the result of applying the modification deltas in delta to src.
func UpdateObjectStorage ¶
func UpdateObjectStorage(s storer.EncodedObjectStorer, packfile io.Reader) error
UpdateObjectStorage updates the given storer.EncodedObjectStorer with the contents of the packfile.
Types ¶
type Decoder ¶
type Decoder struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Decoder reads and decodes packfiles from an input Scanner, if an ObjectStorer was provided the decoded objects are store there. If not the decode object is destroyed. The Offsets and CRCs are calculated whether an ObjectStorer was provided or not.
func NewDecoder ¶
func NewDecoder(s *Scanner, o storer.EncodedObjectStorer) (*Decoder, error)
NewDecoder returns a new Decoder that decodes a Packfile using the given Scanner and stores the objects in the provided EncodedObjectStorer. ObjectStorer can be nil, in this If the passed EncodedObjectStorer is nil, objects are not stored, but offsets on the Packfile and CRCs are calculated.
If EncodedObjectStorer is nil and the Scanner is not Seekable, ErrNonSeekable is returned.
If the ObjectStorer implements storer.Transactioner, a transaction is created during the Decode execution. If anything fails, Rollback is called
func NewDecoderForType ¶
func NewDecoderForType(s *Scanner, o storer.EncodedObjectStorer, t plumbing.ObjectType) (*Decoder, error)
NewDecoderForType returns a new Decoder but in this case for a specific object type. When an object is read using this Decoder instance and it is not of the same type of the specified one, nil will be returned. This is intended to avoid the content deserialization of all the objects
func (*Decoder) CRCs ¶
CRCs returns the CRC-32 for each read object. Decode method should be called before to calculate the CRCs
func (*Decoder) Close ¶
Close closes the Scanner. usually this mean that the whole reader is read and discarded
func (*Decoder) Decode ¶
Decode reads a packfile and stores it in the value pointed to by s. The offsets and the CRCs are calculated by this method
func (*Decoder) DecodeObject ¶
func (d *Decoder) DecodeObject() (plumbing.EncodedObject, error)
DecodeObject reads the next object from the scanner and returns it. This method can be used in replacement of the Decode method, to work in a interactive way. If you created a new decoder instance using NewDecoderForType constructor, if the object decoded is not equals to the specified one, nil will be returned
func (*Decoder) DecodeObjectAt ¶
func (d *Decoder) DecodeObjectAt(offset int64) (plumbing.EncodedObject, error)
DecodeObjectAt reads an object at the given location. Every EncodedObject returned is added into a internal index. This is intended to be able to regenerate objects from deltas (offset deltas or reference deltas) without an package index (.idx file). If Decode wasn't called previously objects offset should provided using the SetOffsets method.
type Encoder ¶
type Encoder struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Encoder gets the data from the storage and write it into the writer in PACK format
func NewEncoder ¶
NewEncoder creates a new packfile encoder using a specific Writer and EncodedObjectStorer. By default deltas used to generate the packfile will be OFSDeltaObject. To use Reference deltas, set useRefDeltas to true.
type Error ¶
type Error struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Error specifies errors returned during packfile parsing.
func (*Error) AddDetails ¶
AddDetails adds details to an error, with additional text.
type ObjectHeader ¶
type ObjectHeader struct { Type plumbing.ObjectType Offset int64 Length int64 Reference plumbing.Hash OffsetReference int64 }
ObjectHeader contains the information related to the object, this information is collected from the previous bytes to the content of the object.
type ObjectToPack ¶
type ObjectToPack struct { // The main object to pack, it could be any object, including deltas Object plumbing.EncodedObject // Base is the object that a delta is based on (it could be also another delta). // If the main object is not a delta, Base will be null Base *ObjectToPack // Original is the object that we can generate applying the delta to // Base, or the same object as EncodedObject in the case of a non-delta // object. Original plumbing.EncodedObject // Depth is the amount of deltas needed to resolve to obtain Original // (delta based on delta based on ...) Depth int }
ObjectToPack is a representation of an object that is going to be into a pack file.
func (*ObjectToPack) IsDelta ¶
func (o *ObjectToPack) IsDelta() bool
func (*ObjectToPack) SetDelta ¶
func (o *ObjectToPack) SetDelta(base *ObjectToPack, delta plumbing.EncodedObject)
type Scanner ¶
type Scanner struct { // lsSeekable says if this scanner can do Seek or not, to have a Scanner // seekable a r implementing io.Seeker is required IsSeekable bool // contains filtered or unexported fields }
func NewScanner ¶
NewScanner returns a new Scanner based on a reader, if the given reader implements io.ReadSeeker the Scanner will be also Seekable
func (*Scanner) Header ¶
Header reads the whole packfile header (signature, version and object count). It returns the version and the object count and performs checks on the validity of the signature and the version fields.
func (*Scanner) NextObject ¶
NextObject writes the content of the next object into the reader, returns the number of bytes written, the CRC32 of the content and an error, if any
func (*Scanner) NextObjectHeader ¶
func (s *Scanner) NextObjectHeader() (*ObjectHeader, error)
NextObjectHeader returns the ObjectHeader for the next object in the reader
