  • Method Details

    • parse

      public static RevCommit parse(byte[] raw)
      Parse a commit from its canonical format. This method constructs a temporary revision pool, parses the commit as supplied, and returns it to the caller. Since the commit was built inside of a private revision pool its parent pointers will be initialized, but will not have their headers loaded. Applications are discouraged from using this API. Callers usually need more than one commit. Use RevWalk.parseCommit(AnyObjectId) to obtain a RevCommit from an existing repository.
      Parameters:
      raw - the canonical formatted commit to be parsed.
      Returns:
      the parsed commit, in an isolated revision pool that is not available to the caller.
    • parse

      public static RevCommit parse(RevWalk rw, byte[] raw) throws IOException
      Parse a commit from its canonical format.

      This method inserts the commit directly into the caller supplied revision pool, making it appear as though the commit exists in the repository, even if it doesn't. The repository under the pool is not affected.

      The body of the commit (message, author, committer) is always retained in the returned RevCommit, even if the supplied RevWalk has been configured with setRetainBody(false).

      Parameters:
      rw - the revision pool to allocate the commit within. The commit's tree and parent pointers will be obtained from this pool.
      raw - the canonical formatted commit to be parsed. This buffer will be retained by the returned RevCommit and must not be modified by the caller.
      Returns:
      the parsed commit, in an isolated revision pool that is not available to the caller.
      Throws:
      IOException - in case of RevWalk initialization fails

    • carryOneStep

      private static void carryOneStep(FIFORevQueue q, int carry, RevCommit c)
    • carry

      public void carry(RevFlag flag)
      Carry a RevFlag set on this commit to its parents.

      If this commit is parsed, has parents, and has the supplied flag set on it we automatically add it to the parents, grand-parents, and so on until an unparsed commit or a commit with no parents is discovered. This permits applications to force a flag through the history chain when necessary.

      Parameters:
      flag - the single flag value to carry back onto parents.
    • getCommitTime

      public final int getCommitTime()
      Time from the "committer " line of the buffer.
      Returns:
      commit time
    • getTree

      public final RevTree getTree()
      Get a reference to this commit's tree.
      Returns:
      tree of this commit.
    • getParentCount

      public final int getParentCount()
      Get the number of parent commits listed in this commit.
      Returns:
      number of parents; always a positive value but can be 0.
    • getParent

      public final RevCommit getParent(int nth)
      Get the nth parent from this commit's parent list.
      Parameters:
      nth - parent index to obtain. Must be in the range 0 through getParentCount()-1.
      Returns:
      the specified parent.
      Throws:
      ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - an invalid parent index was specified.
    • getParents

      public final RevCommit[] getParents()
      Obtain an array of all parents (NOTE - THIS IS NOT A COPY).

      This method is exposed only to provide very fast, efficient access to this commit's parent list. Applications relying on this list should be very careful to ensure they do not modify its contents during their use of it.

      Returns:
      the array of parents.
    • getRawBuffer

      public final byte[] getRawBuffer()
      Obtain the raw unparsed commit body (NOTE - THIS IS NOT A COPY).

      This method is exposed only to provide very fast, efficient access to this commit's message buffer within a RevFilter. Applications relying on this buffer should be very careful to ensure they do not modify its contents during their use of it.

      Returns:
      the raw unparsed commit body. This is NOT A COPY. Altering the contents of this buffer may alter the walker's knowledge of this commit, and the results it produces.
    • getRawGpgSignature

      public final byte[] getRawGpgSignature()
      Parse the gpg signature from the raw buffer.

      This method parses and returns the raw content of the gpgsig lines. This method is fairly expensive and produces a new byte[] instance on each invocation. Callers should invoke this method only if they are certain they will need, and should cache the return value for as long as necessary to use all information from it.

      RevFilter implementations should try to use RawParseUtils to scan the getRawBuffer() instead, as this will allow faster evaluation of commits.

      Returns:
      contents of the gpg signature; null if the commit was not signed.
      Since:
      5.1
    • getAuthorIdent

      public final PersonIdent getAuthorIdent()
      Parse the author identity from the raw buffer.

      This method parses and returns the content of the author line, after taking the commit's character set into account and decoding the author name and email address. This method is fairly expensive and produces a new PersonIdent instance on each invocation. Callers should invoke this method only if they are certain they will be outputting the result, and should cache the return value for as long as necessary to use all information from it.

      RevFilter implementations should try to use RawParseUtils to scan the getRawBuffer() instead, as this will allow faster evaluation of commits.

      Returns:
      identity of the author (name, email) and the time the commit was made by the author; null if no author line was found.
    • getCommitterIdent

      public final PersonIdent getCommitterIdent()
      Parse the committer identity from the raw buffer.

      This method parses and returns the content of the committer line, after taking the commit's character set into account and decoding the committer name and email address. This method is fairly expensive and produces a new PersonIdent instance on each invocation. Callers should invoke this method only if they are certain they will be outputting the result, and should cache the return value for as long as necessary to use all information from it.

      RevFilter implementations should try to use RawParseUtils to scan the getRawBuffer() instead, as this will allow faster evaluation of commits.

      Returns:
      identity of the committer (name, email) and the time the commit was made by the committer; null if no committer line was found.
    • getFullMessage

      public final String getFullMessage()
      Parse the complete commit message and decode it to a string.

      This method parses and returns the message portion of the commit buffer, after taking the commit's character set into account and decoding the buffer using that character set. This method is a fairly expensive operation and produces a new string on each invocation.

      Returns:
      decoded commit message as a string. Never null.
    • getShortMessage

      public final String getShortMessage()
      Parse the commit message and return the first "line" of it.

      The first line is everything up to the first pair of LFs. This is the "oneline" format, suitable for output in a single line display.

      This method parses and returns the message portion of the commit buffer, after taking the commit's character set into account and decoding the buffer using that character set. This method is a fairly expensive operation and produces a new string on each invocation.

      Returns:
      decoded commit message as a string. Never null. The returned string does not contain any LFs, even if the first paragraph spanned multiple lines. Embedded LFs are converted to spaces.
    • hasLF

      static boolean hasLF(byte[] r, int b, int e)
    • getEncodingName

      @Nullable public final String getEncodingName()
      Determine the encoding of the commit message buffer.

      Locates the "encoding" header (if present) and returns its value. Due to corruption in the wild this may be an invalid encoding name that is not recognized by any character encoding library.

      If no encoding header is present, null.

      Returns:
      the preferred encoding of getRawBuffer(); or null.
      Since:
      4.2
    • getEncoding

      public final Charset getEncoding()
      Determine the encoding of the commit message buffer.

      Locates the "encoding" header (if present) and then returns the proper character set to apply to this buffer to evaluate its contents as character data.

      If no encoding header is present UTF-8 is assumed.

      Returns:
      the preferred encoding of getRawBuffer().
      Throws:
      IllegalCharsetNameException - if the character set requested by the encoding header is malformed and unsupportable.
      UnsupportedCharsetException - if the JRE does not support the character set requested by the encoding header.
    • guessEncoding

      private Charset guessEncoding()
    • getFooterLines

      public final List<FooterLine> getFooterLines()
      Parse the footer lines (e.g. "Signed-off-by") for machine processing.

      This method splits all of the footer lines out of the last paragraph of the commit message, providing each line as a key-value pair, ordered by the order of the line's appearance in the commit message itself.

      A footer line's key must match the pattern ^[A-Za-z0-9-]+:, while the value is free-form, but must not contain an LF. Very common keys seen in the wild are:

      • Signed-off-by (agrees to Developer Certificate of Origin)
      • Acked-by (thinks change looks sane in context)
      • Reported-by (originally found the issue this change fixes)
      • Tested-by (validated change fixes the issue for them)
      • CC, Cc (copy on all email related to this change)
      • Bug (link to project's bug tracking system)
      Returns:
      ordered list of footer lines; empty list if no footers found.
    • getFooterLines

      public final List<String> getFooterLines(String keyName)
      Get the values of all footer lines with the given key.
      Parameters:
      keyName - footer key to find values of, case insensitive.
      Returns:
      values of footers with key of keyName, ordered by their order of appearance. Duplicates may be returned if the same footer appeared more than once. Empty list if no footers appear with the specified key, or there are no footers at all.
      See Also:
    • getFooterLines

      public final List<String> getFooterLines(FooterKey keyName)
      Get the values of all footer lines with the given key.
      Parameters:
      keyName - footer key to find values of, case insensitive.
      Returns:
      values of footers with key of keyName, ordered by their order of appearance. Duplicates may be returned if the same footer appeared more than once. Empty list if no footers appear with the specified key, or there are no footers at all.

    • reset

      public void reset()
      Reset this commit to allow another RevWalk with the same instances.

      Subclasses must call super.reset() to ensure the basic information can be correctly cleared out.

    • disposeBody

      public final void disposeBody()
      Discard the message buffer to reduce memory usage.

      After discarding the memory usage of the RevCommit is reduced to only the getTree() and getParents() pointers and the time in getCommitTime(). Accessing other properties such as getAuthorIdent(), getCommitterIdent() or either message function requires reloading the buffer by invoking RevWalk.parseBody(RevObject).
