gitoxide-core v0.60.0

New Features

• add explicit gix config show subcommand.

• add gix config list for showing the git-configuration files.

• add the gix config fmt subcommand
  Expose the gix-config whitespace formatter as
  gix config fmt [--in-place] [in-file] [out-file]: with no in-file it
  formats the repository-local configuration, and with no out-file it writes
  to stdout. The repository is only opened when the repository-local
  configuration is needed, so formatting an explicit file works outside a
  repository too.

• add gix status --untracked flag
  This allows to control how untracked files are folded, but also
  can completely turn dirwalking off.

• add gix free remote refs to list and write remote refs.
  Add gix free remote refs to perform an upload-pack handshake, discover
  the remote reference advertisement, and print the refs without negotiating
  or receiving a pack.

  The command can also write the advertised refs into a standalone ref store:

  gix free remote refs --refs-directory out-refs <url>

Bug Fixes

• escape unsafe paths in gix index entries
  --- agent

  Human-readable index entry output wrote repository-controlled path bytes
  directly to stdout. Control characters could therefore alter terminal state,
  rewrite visible output, or split one path across multiple lines.

  Add a crate-private writer that reuses a scratch buffer and emits BStr's
  quoted debug representation only when its interior differs from the original
  bytes. This keeps ordinary UTF-8 output unchanged while escaping terminal
  controls, ambiguous syntax bytes, and invalid UTF-8 losslessly, without allocation.
  Apply it to both simple and rich index output,
  including complete submodule-prefixed paths.

  Git baseline: builtin/ls-files.c routes line-oriented names through
  write_name_quoted_relative(), which delegates to quote.c's C-style path
  quoting. This change follows the same behavioral rule that ordinary paths stay
  readable while terminal-active bytes are not emitted literally.

• preserve multiple remote URLs
  Configured remotes can have multiple remote..url or remote..pushUrl
  values, but gix::Remote kept only one value because lookup used the singular
  config accessor. That meant the most recent config value won, while Git exposes
  every effective URL and uses the first one for the singular get-url form.

  Add ordered URL storage to gix::Remote and expose Remote::urls(Direction) for
  all effective URLs. Keep Remote::url(Direction) as the singular compatibility
  API, now returning the first effective URL. Fetch URLs used as push fallbacks
  try pushInsteadOf first and then insteadOf, matching Git behavior.

  The regression fixture records Git 2.50.1 behavior with git remote get-url:
  without --all it prints the first configured URL, and with --all it prints all
  configured URLs in order for both fetch and push.

• pass through the allocation limit
  This is particularly important in untrusted repositories, which
  get a reduced allocation limit.

Changed (BREAKING)

• replace maybe-async with bisync.
  Replace the globally feature-selected maybe-async dependency with bisync 0.3 and
  re-export the locally selected macro mode from gix-protocol.

  Also use it to deduplicate portions which previously couldn't be handled.

Bug Fixes (BREAKING)

• make exclude queries index-aware

  gix exclude query reported ignore matches for tracked files and directories
  containing tracked entries, unlike git check-ignore. Positional arguments were
  also interpreted as pathspecs while stdin supplied paths.

  Treat positional and stdin input uniformly as paths, normalize them relative
  to the repository, and suppress ignore matches for indexed files or directories
  containing indexed entries. This changes positional arguments from pathspecs
  to paths.

  Add journey coverage for tracked and untracked paths below ignored directories,
  stdin from a nested working directory, ignore-pattern display, and positional
  output order.
