[GSoC] Update: Week 1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



SUMMARY OF MY PROJECT:

Git submodule subcommands are currently implemented by using shell script
'git-submodule.sh'. There are several reasons why we'll prefer not to
use the shell script. My project intends to convert the subcommands into
C code, thus making them builtins. This will increase Git's portability
and hence the efficiency of working with the git-submodule commands.

Mentors:
Stefan Beller <sbeller@xxxxxxxxxx>

UPDATES:

As planned for the first week, I continued working on completing the porting
of submodule subcommand foreach. As suggested in the previous patches, some
additional changes we made to the patch and an updated version of the patch
is posted on the mailing list.[2][3]

Also, porting of submodule subcommand status from shell to C was carried out
in this week. For this purpose, first the function set_name_rev was ported
from shell to C, and then the subcommand. A complete ported version, which
passes all the tests is posted on the mailing list for reviews.[4][5]

PLAN FOR WEEK-2 (23 May 2017 to 29 may 2017):

In this week, I plan to port submodule subcommand sync from shell to C and
post a version of the ported function on the mailing list asap.

Also, I'll get started with porting the submodule subcommand summary in this
week itself and will try my best to port this as well in this week.

Along with this, I'll continue improvising the present patches, which are
currently on the mailing list for reviews.
