[PATCH 16/30] config: add config values for packed-refs v2

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

 



From: Derrick Stolee <derrickstolee@xxxxxxxxxx>

When updating the file format version for something as critical as ref
storage, the file format version must come with an extension change. The
extensions.refFormat config value is a multi-valued config value that
defaults to the pair "files" and "packed".

Add "packed-v2" as a possible value to extensions.refFormat. This
value specifies that the packed-refs file may exist in the version 2
format. (If the "packed" value does not exist, then the packed-refs file
must exist in version 2, not version 1.)

In order to select version 2 for writing, the user will have two
options. First, the user could remove "packed" and add "packed-v2" to
the extensions.refFormat list. This would imply that version 2 is the
only format available. However, this also means that version 1 files
would be ignored at read time, so this does not allow users to upgrade
repositories with existing packed-refs files.

Add a new refs.packedRefsVersion config option which allows specifying
which version to use during writes. Thus, when both "packed" and
"packed-v2" are in the extensions.refFormat list, the user can upgrade
from version 1 to version 2, or downgrade from 2 to 1.

Currently, the implementation does not use refs.packedRefsVersion, as
that is delayed until we have the code to write that file format
version. However, we can add the necessary enum values and flag
constants to communicate the presence of "packed-v2" in the
extensions.refFormat list.
