The Default impls for DefaultFormat and LoadFormat were originally called ‘new’, to which Clippy suggested that they be changed. But as these functions change based on what the year is, a function called something other than ‘new’, like ‘load’.
This improves performance by a factor of at least 2 in large --tree workloads by avoiding the repeated creation/destruction of the pool and containing threads.
Cycling pools also encountered lots lock contention, which accounted for most of the time saved by reusing a single pool.
Fixes#288, but more-or-less as a side-effect.
The “mi” key in LS_COLORS was meant to be used for a missing link path, but it wasn’t really used like that. There was also a bug where control characters in a broken symlink’s path were assumed to be underlined, because that’s what happened in the default colour scheme, but this assumption doesn’t hold when colours were disabled.
The solution to these was not to introduce another configurable colour code, but to start using _overlays_ to alter a bunch of colours at once. The “mi” code will have to be added back later.
This doesn’t *completely* work: it seems to have trouble with ignored paths beginning with slashes, possibly amongst others. Also, .gitignore scanning could be made more efficient.
This commit adds to the parsing of the LS_COLORS and EXA_COLORS variables so that non-two-letter codes (keys other than things like ‘di’ or ‘ln’ or ‘ex’) will be treated as file name globs, and get used to colour files accordingly.
Fixes#116 for good.
This is all a big commit because it took a lot more work than I thought it would! The commit basically moves Git repositories from being per-directory to living for the whole life of the program. This allows for several directories in the same repository to be listed in the same invocation; before, it would try to rediscover the repository each time! This is why two of the tests “broke”: it suddenly started working with --recurse.
The Dir type does now not use Git at all; because a Dir doesn’t have a Git, then a File doesn’t have one either, so the Git cache gets passed to the render functions which will put them in the Table to render them.
This commit adds a cache for Git repositories based on the path being queried.
Its only immediate effect is that when you query the same directory twice (such as /testcases/git /testcases/git), it won’t need to check that the second one is a Git directory the second time. So, a minuscule optimisation for something you’d never do anyway? Wrong! It’s going to let us combine multiple entries over the same repository later, letting us use --tree and --recurse, because now Git scanning is behind a factory.
This commit meddles about with both the Colours and the FileExtensions.
Even though all the renderable fields were turned into traits, the FileName struct kept on accessing fields directly on the Colours value instead of calling methods on it. It also did the usual amount of colour misappropriation (such as ‘punctuation’ instead of specifying ‘normal_arrow’)
In preparation for when custom file colours are configurable (any day now), the colourise-file-by-kind functionality (links, sockets, or directories) was separated from the colourise-file-by-name functionality (images, videos, archives). The FileStyle struct already allowed for both to be separate; it was only changed so that a type other than FileExtensions could be used instead, as long as it implements the FileColours trait. (I feel like I should re-visit the naming of all these at some point in the future)
The decision to separate the two means that FileExtensions is the one assigning the colours, rather than going through the fields on a Colours value, which have all been removed. This is why a bunch of arbitrary Styles now exist in filetype.rs.
Because the decision on which colourise-file-by-name code to use (currently just the standard extensions, or nothing if we aren’t colourising) is now determined by the Colours type (instead of being derived), it’s possible to get it wrong. And wrong it was! There was a bug where file names were colourised even though the rest of the --long output wasn’t, and this wasn’t caught by the xtests. It is now.
There are now two device colours instead of one. Even though they’re both set to the same style for the default colour set, LS_COLORS allows the two to look different, so exa has to support it too.
It’s probably a good idea to support it anyway.
This separates the colours to give to files with different filesystem types (directories, links, sockets) from files with different names or extensions (images, videos, archives).
I’m not 100% sure I’ve got the terms “kind” and “type” the right way round, but whatever.
This was done because colouring files based on their name is going to be handled differently and extensibly from colouring files based on what the filesystem thinks.
This commit adds many traits, all named ‘Colours’, to the code. Each one asks for a colour needed to render a cell: the number of links asks for colours for the number and the multi-link-file special case; the file size asks for number, unit, punctuation, and device ID colours, or it can do a scale with its own colours, however it wants.
This is a step towards LS_COLORS compatibility, believe it or not. If a text cell in a column doesn’t depend on Colours to render itself, then the source of the colours is open-ended.
I am glad to have not needed any test changes here.
The error in #178 was being hidden from output most of the time, and because exa isn’t a GUI program, there’s nowhere it can really dump log output like this. Now that users can opt in with the EXA_DEBUG variable, there is a place it can go.
Also stop the ERROR log level being printed by default.
No new features here, just some restructuring. Mode::GridDetails was nice and elegant with those two fields, but now there’s a grid-details-only option the elegance has gone out the window.
