[PATCH v2 0/8] port brnach.c to use ref-filter APIs

[PATCH v2 0/8] port brnach.c to use ref-filter APIs

[Karthik Nayak]

This is part of my GSoC project to "unify the code of tag -l, branch,
and for-each-ref".
Version 1 can be found here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/275264

Changes:
* The filtering of refs based on type has been moved over to the
  series of porting tag.c to ref-filter.
* 1/8: we first check for ignore before computing width.
* 2/8: spelling error.
* 3/8: add a to_free variable. 

Karthik Nayak (8):
  branch: refactor width computation
  branch: bump get_head_description() to the top
  branch: roll show_detached HEAD into regular ref_list
  branch: move 'current' check down to the presentation layer
  branch: drop non-commit error reporting
  branch.c: use 'ref-filter' data structures
  branch.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs
  branch: add '--points-at' option

[PATCH v2 1/8] branch: refactor width computation

[Karthik Nayak]

From: Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com>

Remove unnecessary variables from ref_list and ref_item which were
used for width computation. This is to make ref_item similar to
ref-filter's ref_array_item. This will ensure a smooth port of
branch.c to use ref-filter APIs in further patches.

Previously the maxwidth was computed when inserting the refs into the
ref_list. Now, we obtain the entire ref_list and then compute
maxwidth.

[PATCH v2 2/8] branch: bump get_head_description() to the top

[Karthik Nayak]

This is a preperatory patch for 'roll show_detached HEAD into regular
ref_list'. This patch moves get_head_description() to the top so that
it can be used in print_ref_item().

[PATCH v2 3/8] branch: roll show_detached HEAD into regular ref_list

[Karthik Nayak]

Remove show_detached() and make detached HEAD to be rolled into
regular ref_list by adding REF_DETACHED_HEAD as a kind of branch and
supporting the same in append_ref(). This eliminates the need for an
extra function and helps in easier porting of branch.c to use
ref-filter APIs.

Before show_detached() used to check if the HEAD branch satisfies the
'--contains' option, now that is taken care by append_ref().

[PATCH v2 4/8] branch: move 'current' check down to the presentation layer

[Karthik Nayak]

We check if given ref is the current branch in print_ref_list(). Move
this check to print_ref_item() where it is checked right before
printing.

[PATCH v2 5/8] branch: drop non-commit error reporting

[Karthik Nayak]

Remove the error reporting variable to make the code easier to port
over to using ref-filter APIs. This variable is not require as in
ref-filter we already check for possible errors and report them.

[PATCH v2 6/8] branch.c: use 'ref-filter' data structures

[Karthik Nayak]

Make 'branch.c' use 'ref-filter' data structures and make changes to
support the new data structures. This is a part of the process of
porting 'branch.c' to use 'ref-filter' APIs.

This is a temporary step before porting 'branch.c' to use 'ref-filter'
completely. As this is a temporary step, most of the code introduced
here will be removed when 'branch.c' is ported over to use
'ref-filter' APIs

[PATCH v2 7/8] branch.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs

[Karthik Nayak]

Make 'branch.c' use 'ref-filter' APIs for iterating through refs
sorting. This removes most of the code used in 'branch.c' replacing it
with calls to the 'ref-filter' library.

Make 'branch.c' use the 'filter_refs()' function provided by 'ref-filter'
to filter out tags based on the options set.

We provide a sorting option provided for 'branch.c' by using the sorting
options provided by 'ref-filter'.

Also remove the 'ignore' variable from ref_array_item as it was
previously used for the '--merged' option and now that is handled by
ref-filter.

The test t1430 'git branch shows badly named ref' fails as this checks
the ability of branch.c to list broken refs, which is now displayed as
a warning while using ref-filter APIs.

Modify documentation and add tests for the same.

[PATCH v2 8/8] branch: add '--points-at' option

[Karthik Nayak]

Add the '--points-at' option provided by 'ref-filter'. The option lets
the user to list only branches which points at the given object.

Add documentation and tests for the same.
