fix(compat): make test work with git >= 2.5

fix(test_index): fix encoding

2015-08-17T20:39:13+00:00

I really never want to touch python again, and never deal with
py2/3 unicode handling anymore.
By now, it seems pretty much anything is better.
Is python to be blamed for it entirely ?
Probably not, but there are better alternatives.
Nim ? Rust ? Ruby ?
Totally

fix(index):allow adding non-unicode paths to index

2015-07-29T16:29:03+00:00

This issue only surfaced in python 2, in case paths containing unicode
characters were not actual unicode objects.

In python 3, this was never the issue.

Closes #331

added tests for commits with dates

fix(index): handle adding symlinks to dirs

2015-06-26T07:58:47+00:00

When expanding directories, check if it is a symlink and don't expand
them at all.

Previously, we followed symlinks and expanded their contents, which
could lead to weird index files.

Fixes #302

fix(index): don't write extension data by default

2015-04-08T07:50:26+00:00

It turned out that the index is not actually corrupted, which is good
news. What happens is that `git` writes `TREE` extension data into the
index, which causes it to write out the given tree *as is* next time
a `git commit` is executed. When using `git add`, this extension data
is maintained automatically. However, GitPython doesn't do that ... .
Usually this is no problem at all, as you are supposed to use
`IndexFile.commit(...)` along with `IndexFile.add(...)`.

Thanks to a shortcoming in the GitPython API, the index was
automatically written out whenever files have been added, without
providing control over whether or not *extension data* will be
written along with it.

My fix consists of an additional flag in `IndexFile.add(...)`, which
causes extension data not to be written by default, so commits can be
safely done via `git commit` or `IndexFile.commit(...)`.

However, this might introduce new subtle bugs in case someone is
relying on extension data to be written. As this can be controlled
through the said flag though, a fix is easily done in that case.

Fixes #265

test(index): test for #265

2015-04-07T16:27:16+00:00

However, it doesn't reproduce on the latest version of GitPython.
Maybe it's on an older one.

Fixed regression in test-suite for IndexFile

2015-01-21T17:57:34+00:00

Previously, it checked for AssertionErrors, now we have to implement
need-unbare-repo check ourselves.

Improved unicode handling when using os.environ or GitConfigParser

2015-01-19T17:10:16+00:00

Assured unicode values are supported when reading the configuration,
and when getting author/committer information from the environment.

Fixes #237

IndexFile.commit() now runs pre-commit and post-commit hooks.

2015-01-12T13:55:31+00:00

However, it does so only on posix. The test-case will run on posix only
as well.
Please note that in theory, even on windows we will attempt to run hooks,
even though I am not sure that this will actually work.

Fixes #81
