Constructor Detail

RevTag

protected RevTag(AnyObjectId id)

Create a new tag reference.

Parameters:

id - object name for the tag.

Method Detail

parse

public static RevTag parse(byte[] raw)
                    throws CorruptObjectException

Parse an annotated tag from its canonical format. This method constructs a temporary revision pool, parses the tag as supplied, and returns it to the caller. Since the tag was built inside of a private revision pool its object pointer will be initialized, but will not have its headers loaded. Applications are discouraged from using this API. Callers usually need more than one object. Use RevWalk.parseTag(AnyObjectId) to obtain a RevTag from an existing repository.

Parameters:

raw - the canonical formatted tag to be parsed.

Returns:

the parsed tag, in an isolated revision pool that is not available to the caller.

Throws:

CorruptObjectException - the tag contains a malformed header that cannot be handled.

parse

public static RevTag parse(RevWalk rw,
           byte[] raw)
                    throws CorruptObjectException

Parse an annotated tag from its canonical format. This method inserts the tag directly into the caller supplied revision pool, making it appear as though the tag exists in the repository, even if it doesn't. The repository under the pool is not affected.

Parameters:

rw - the revision pool to allocate the tag within. The tag's object pointer will be obtained from this pool.

raw - the canonical formatted tag to be parsed.

Returns:

the parsed tag, in an isolated revision pool that is not available to the caller.

Throws:

CorruptObjectException - the tag contains a malformed header that cannot be handled.

getType

public final int getType()

Description copied from class: RevObject

Get Git object type. See Constants.

Specified by:

getType in class RevObject

Returns:

object type

getTaggerIdent

public final PersonIdent getTaggerIdent()

Parse the tagger identity from the raw buffer.

This method parses and returns the content of the tagger line, after taking the tag's character set into account and decoding the tagger name and email address. This method is fairly expensive and produces a new PersonIdent instance on each invocation. Callers should invoke this method only if they are certain they will be outputting the result, and should cache the return value for as long as necessary to use all information from it.

Returns:

identity of the tagger (name, email) and the time the tag was made by the tagger; null if no tagger line was found.

getFullMessage

public final String getFullMessage()

Parse the complete tag message and decode it to a string.

This method parses and returns the message portion of the tag buffer, after taking the tag's character set into account and decoding the buffer using that character set. This method is a fairly expensive operation and produces a new string on each invocation.

Returns:

decoded tag message as a string. Never null.

getShortMessage

public final String getShortMessage()

Parse the tag message and return the first "line" of it.

The first line is everything up to the first pair of LFs. This is the "oneline" format, suitable for output in a single line display.

This method parses and returns the message portion of the tag buffer, after taking the tag's character set into account and decoding the buffer using that character set. This method is a fairly expensive operation and produces a new string on each invocation.

Returns:

decoded tag message as a string. Never null. The returned string does not contain any LFs, even if the first paragraph spanned multiple lines. Embedded LFs are converted to spaces.

getObject

public final RevObject getObject()

Get a reference to the object this tag was placed on.

Note that the returned object has only been looked up (see RevWalk.lookupAny(AnyObjectId, int). To access the contents it needs to be parsed, see RevWalk.parseHeaders(RevObject) and RevWalk.parseBody(RevObject).

As an alternative, use RevWalk.peel(RevObject) and pass this RevTag to peel it until the first non-tag object.

Returns:

object this tag refers to (only looked up, not parsed)

getTagName

public final String getTagName()

Get the name of this tag, from the tag header.

Returns:

name of the tag, according to the tag header.
