This has a very basic level of functionality (deltas can be generated,
and applied offline). There is only some stubbed out pull code to
fetch them via HTTP.
But, better to commit this now and improve it from a known starting
point, rather than have it languish in a branch.
This will be used by guestmount - it's WAY faster. We only take disks
as a unit, so it's safe. If the process fails halfway through, we
just start over from scratch the next time anyways.
Add a --generate-sizes option to commit to add size information to the
commit metadata. This will be used by higher level code which wants
to determine the total size necessary for downloading.
We want an OstreeRepoFile to be the way to reference a "filesystem
tree" that's stored in the repo, which is a combination of a DIR_TREE
and a DIR_META. The idea is that once you write an mtree to the repo
using ostree_repo_write_mtree, it becomes serialized and you get an
OstreeRepoFile in return.
Change any APIs that care about DIR_TREE / DIR_META checksums to care
about OstreeRepoFiles instead, which right now is mostly is
ostree_repo_write_commit.

We want an OstreeRepoFile to be the way to represent a filesystem tree
inside an ostree repository. In order to do this, we need to drop the
commit from an OstreeRepoFile, and make that go to callers.
Switch all current users of ostree_repo_file_new_root to
ostree_repo_read_commit, and make the actual constructor private.

Previously I thought we'd have to ditch the current commit
format to avoid a{sv} due to
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673012
But I realized that we don't really have to care about
unpacking/repacking commit objects, so let's just re-expose the
existing metadata a{sv} in commits in the API.
Also, add support for "detached" metadata that can be updated at any
time post-commit. This is specifically designed for GPG signatures.

This is a relic from long ago when we were trying to stage objects
before finally committing them all in one go in the pull code.
We're no longer doing that, so stop trying to make the directory.
This also fixes trying to use ostree as non-root to read the
root-owned repo, since we'd fail to create the pending dir.
Clean up how we deal with the uncompressed object cache; we now use
openat()/linkat() and such just like we do for the main objects/.
Use linkat() between the objects and the destination, if possible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707733
Add new internal API to both fstatat() and write a pathname for the
given object. Use it in commit, and also wrapped in the old
GFile-based API.
This is more efficient.
Rather than having separate write_ref calls, make clients start a
transaction, add some refs, and then commit it. While this doesn't
make it 100% atomic, it makes it easier for us to use an atomic
model, and it means we don't do as much I/O updating the summary
file and such.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707644
An earlier version of this API acted like git in that some objects
would be staged in a temporary directory which would be then committed
in one go by moving files around. The API doesn't match most users
expectations though, as while the stage is nice as a high-level API
it isn't really suited for low-level APIs.
While the stage was removed, the APIs were never renamed. Rename
them now so that they match expectations.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707644
Update libgsystem submodule for a bugfix.
This is both more efficient from a kernel perspective, and avoids us
calling gs_file_get_path_cached() on tmp_dir constantly, which
triggered another bug due to lack of locking.
