This patch adds a function that will parse a partial checksum when resolving a refspec. If the inputted refspec matches a truncated existing checksum, it will return that checksum to be parsed. If multiple truncated checksums match the partial refspec, it is not unique and will return false. This addition is inspired by the same functionality in Docker, which allows a user to reference a specific commit without typing the entire checksum. partial checksums: Add function to abstract comparison This modifies the list_objects and list_objects_at functions to take an additional argument for the string that a commit starts with. If this string arg is not null, it will only list commit objects beginning with that string. This allows for a new function ostree_repo_list_commit_objects_starting_with to pass a partial string and return a list of all matching commits. This improves on the previous strategy of listing refs because it will list all commit objects, even ones in past history. This update also includes bugfixes on error handling and string comparison, and changes the output structure of resolve_partial_checksum. The new strcuture will no longer return FALSE without error. Also, the hashtable foreach now uses iter. Also includes modified test file |

OSTree is a tool for managing bootable, immutable, versioned filesystem trees. While it takes over some of the roles of tradtional "package managers" like dpkg and rpm, it is not a package system; nor is it a tool for managing full disk images. Instead, it sits between those levels, offering a blend of the advantages (and disadvantages) of both.
