Struct git_hash::Prefix

pub struct Prefix { /* private fields */ }

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

Implementations

impl Prefix

pub fn new(id: impl AsRef<oid>, hex_len: usize) -> Result<Self, Error>

Create a new instance by taking a full id as input and truncating it to hex_len.

For instance, with hex_len of 7 the resulting prefix is 3.5 bytes, or 3 bytes and 4 bits wide, with all other bytes and bits set to zero.

pub fn as_oid(&self) -> &oid

Returns the prefix as object id.

Note that it may be deceptive to use given that it looks like a full object id, even though its post-prefix bytes/bits are set to zero.

pub fn hex_len(&self) -> usize

Return the amount of hexadecimal characters that are set in the prefix.

This gives the prefix a granularity of 4 bits.

pub fn cmp_oid(&self, candidate: &oid) -> Ordering

Provided with candidate id which is a full hash, determine how this prefix compares to it, only looking at the prefix bytes, ignoring everything behind that.

pub fn from_hex(_hex: &str) -> Self

Create an instance from the given hexadecimal prefix, e.g. 35e77c16 would yield a Prefix with hex_len() = 8.

Trait Implementations
