Module gix_index::extension::end_of_index_entry

source ·
Expand description

Constants

  • MIN_SIZE
    The minimal size of the extension, depending on the shortest hash.
  • MIN_SIZE_WITH_HEADER
    The smallest size of the extension varying by hash kind, along with the standard extension header.
  • SIGNATURE
    The signature of the end-of-index-entry extension

Functions

  • decode
    Decode the end of index entry extension, which is no more than a glorified offset to the first byte of all extensions to allow loading entries and extensions in parallel.
  • write_to
    Write this extension to out and generate a hash of hash_kind over all prior_extensions which are specified as (signature, size) pair. one_past_entries is the offset to the first byte past the entries, which is also the first byte of the signature of the first extension in prior_extensions. Note that prior_extensions must have been written prior to this one, as the name suggests, allowing this extension to be the last one in the index file.
