Crate gix_hash 

This crate provides types for identifying git objects using a hash digest.

These are provided in borrowed versions as well as an owned one.

Feature Flags

• sha1 (enabled by default) — Support for SHA-1 digests.
• serde — Data structures implement serde::Serialize and serde::Deserialize.

Modules

decode

hasher

Hash functions and hash utilities

io

Error types for utility hash functions

prefix

verify

Structs

Hasher

An implementation of the Sha1 hash, which can be used once.

Prefix

A partial, owned hash possibly identifying an object uniquely, whose non-prefix bytes are zeroed.

oid

A borrowed reference to a hash identifying objects.

Enums

Error

The error returned when trying to convert a byte slice to an oid or ObjectId

Kind

Denotes the kind of function to produce a ObjectId.

ObjectId

An owned hash identifying objects, most commonly Sha1

Functions

bytes

Similar to bytes_of_file, but operates on a stream of bytes.

bytes_of_file

Compute the hash of kind for the bytes in the file at path, hashing only the first num_bytes_from_start while initializing and calling progress.

bytes_with_hasher

Similar to bytes(), but takes a hasher instead of a hash kind.

hasher

Produce a hasher suitable for the given kind of hash.
