apt-pkg: default visibility to hidden

2020-02-26T19:34:54Z

Run unifdef -DAPT_{8,9,10,15}_CLEANER_HEADERS

Add 'explicit' to most single argument constructors

2019-04-30T15:43:31Z

This prevents implicit conversions that we do not want, such as having a FileFd* being converted to a debListParser. Two cases are not yet handled because they require changes in code using them: 1. The classes in hashes.h 2. The URI class - this one is used quite a lot

Remove obsolete RCS keywords

convert various c-style casts to C++-style

2017-12-13T22:53:34Z

gcc was warning about ignored type qualifiers for all of them due to the last 'const', so dropping that and converting to static_cast in the process removes the here harmless warning to avoid hidden real issues in them later on. Reported-By: gcc Gbp-Dch: Ignore

Reformat and sort all includes with clang-format

2017-07-12T11:57:51Z

This makes it easier to see which headers includes what. The changes were done by running git grep -l '#\s*include' \ | grep -E '.(cc|h)$' \ | xargs sed -i -E 's/(^\s*)#(\s*)include/\1#\2 include/' To modify all include lines by adding a space, and then running ./git-clang-format.sh.

add binary-specific options via Binary scope

2015-11-04T17:04:02Z

Especially with apt now, it can be useful to set an option only for apt and not for apt-get. Using a binary-specific subtree which is merged into the root seems like a simple enough trick to achieve this.

configureable acquire targets to download additional files

2015-06-09T10:57:36Z

First pass at making the acquire system capable of downloading files based on configuration rather than hardcoded entries. It is now possible to instruct 'deb' and 'deb-src' sources.list lines to download more than just Packages/Translation-* and Sources files. Details on how to do that can be found in the included documentation file.

explicit overload methods instead of adding parameters

2014-11-08T13:29:25Z

Adding a new parameter (with a default) is an ABI break, but you can overload a method, which is "just" an API break for everyone doing references to this method (aka: nobody). Git-Dch: Ignore

mark private methods as hidden

2014-09-29T22:15:15Z

We are the only possible users of private methods, so we are also the only users who can potentially export them via using them in inline methods. The point is: We don't need these symbols exported if we don't do this, so marking them as hidden removes some methods from the API without breaking anything as nobody could have used them.
