Method
GgitIndexread
Declaration [src]
gboolean
ggit_index_read (
GgitIndex* idx,
gboolean force,
GError** error
)
Description [src]
Update the contents of an existing index object in memory by reading from the hard disk.
If force is true, this performs a “hard” read that discards in-memory
changes and always reloads the on-disk index data. If there is no on-disk
version, the index will be cleared.
If force is false, this does a “soft” read that reloads the index data from
disk only if it has changed since the last time it was loaded. Purely
in-memory index data will be untouched. Be aware: if there are changes on
disk, unwritten in-memory changes are discarded.
Parameters
force-
Type:
gbooleanForce read even if there are in-memory changes.
error-
Type:
GError **The return location for a recoverable error.
The argument can be NULL.If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to aNULLGError*.The argument will be left initialized to NULLby the method if there are no errors.In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.
