CVE-2018-25032 (2022-03-25)

zlib before 1.2.12 allows memory corruption when deflating (i.e., when compressing) if the input has many distant matches.

CVE-2018-10888 (2018-07-10)

A flaw was found in libgit2 before version 0.27.3. A missing check in git_delta_apply function in delta.c file, may lead to an out-of-bound read while reading a binary delta file. An attacker may use this flaw to cause a Denial of Service.

CVE-2018-10887 (2018-07-10)

A flaw was found in libgit2 before version 0.27.3. It has been discovered that an unexpected sign extension in git_delta_apply function in delta.c file may lead to an integer overflow which in turn leads to an out of bound read, allowing to read before the base object. An attacker may use this flaw to leak memory addresses or cause a Denial of Service.

NAME

Git::Raw::Branch - Git branch class

VERSION

version 0.82

SYNOPSIS

use Git::Raw;

# open the Git repository at $path
my $repo = Git::Raw::Repository -> open($path);

# create a new branch named 'some_branch'
$repo -> branch('some_branch', $repo -> head -> target);

DESCRIPTION

Helper class for branch manipulation. Note that a Git branch is nothing more than a Git::Raw::Reference, so this class inherits all methods from it.

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, $name, $target )

Create a new branch given a name and a target object (either a Git::Raw::Commit or a Git::Raw::Tag).

lookup( $repo, $name, $is_local )

Retrieve the branch corresponding to the given branch name.

move( $name, $force )

Rename the branch to $name. Note that in order to get the updated branch object, an additional Git::Raw::Branch->lookup() is needed.

upstream( [$upstream] )

Retrieve or set the reference supporting the remote tracking branch, given the local branch. If there is no corresponding supporting reference, this function will return undef. $upstream may either be a Git::Raw::Reference, a string containing the upstream reference name or undef. If $upstream is set to undef, the remote tracking branch association is removed.

upstream_name( )

Return the name of the reference supporting the remote tracking branch, given the the local branch. If there is no associated remote tracking branch, this function will return undef.

remote_name( )

Return the name of remote that the remote tracking branch belongs to, given the local branch. If there is no associated remote tracking branch, this function will return undef.

is_head( )

Check if the current local branch is pointed at by HEAD.
