DESCRIPTION

A Git::Raw::Walker represents a graph walker used to walk through the repository's revisions (sort of like git log).

WARNING: The API of this module is unstable and may change without warning (any change will be appropriately documented in the changelog).

METHODS

create( $repo )

Create a new revision walker.

sorting( \@order )

Change the sorting mode when iterating through the repository's contents. Values for @order may be one or more of the following:

  • "none"

    Sort the repository contents in no particular ordering, that is, sorting is arbitrary, implementation-specific and subject to change at any time. (Default)

  • "topological"

    Sort the repository contents in topological order (parents before children). This sorting mode may be combined with time sorting.

  • "time"

    Sort the repository contents by commit time. This sorting mode may be combined with topological sorting.

  • "reverse"

    Iterate through the repository contents in reverse order. This sorting mode may be combined with any of the above.

push( $commit )

Push a Git::Raw::Commit to the list of commits to be used as roots when starting a revision walk.

push_glob( $glob )

Push references by $glob to the list of commits to be used as roots when starting a revision walk.

push_ref( $name )

Push a reference by $name to the list of commits to be used as roots when starting a revision walk.

push_head( )

Push HEAD of the repository to the list of commits to be used as roots when starting a revision walk.

push_range( $start, $end )

Push and hide the respective endpoints of the given range. $start and $end should be "commitish", that is, it should be a Git::Raw::Commit or Git::Raw::Reference object, or alternatively a commit id or commit id prefix.

push_range( $range )

Push and hide the respective endpoints of the given range. $range should be of the form "start_commit_id..end_commit_id".

hide( $commit )

Hide a Git::Raw::Commit and its ancestors from the walker.

hide_glob( $glob )

Hide references by $glob and all ancestors from the walker.

hide_ref( $name )

Hide a reference by $name and its ancestors from the walker.

hide_head( )

Hide HEAD of the repository and its ancestors from the walker.

next( )

Retrieve the next commit from the revision walk. Returns a Git::Raw::Commit object or undef if there are no commits.

all( )

Retrieve all commits. Returns a list of Git::Raw::Commit objects.

reset( )

Reset the revision walker (this is done automatically at the end of a walk).
