使用坚固的库实现 git branch --contains

Question

I'm working with a ruby script that execute the following git command on a given git repository.

  branches = `git branch -a --contains #{tag_name}`

This approach has some drawbacks with command output (that may change in different git versions) and is subject to git binary version on the hosting machine, so I was trying to see if it's possible to replace that command using rugged but I wasn't able to find anything similar to that.

Maybe in rugged there's no way to implement --contains flag, but I think it should be pretty easy to implement this behavior:

Given any git commit-ish (a tag, a commit sha, etc.) how to get (with rugged) the list of branches (both local and remote) that contains that commit-ish?

I need to implement something like github commit show page, ie tag xyz is contained in master, develop, branch_xx

Answer 1

Finally solved with this code :

def branches_for_tag(tag_name, repo_path = Dir.pwd)
  @branches ||= begin
    repo = Rugged::Repository.new(repo_path)
    # Convert tag to sha1 if matching tag found
    full_sha = repo.tags[tag_name] ? repo.tags[tag_name].target_id : tag_name
    logger.debug "Inspecting repo at #{repo.path}, branches are #{repo.branches.map(&:name)}"
    # descendant_of? does not return true for it self, i.e. repo.descendant_of?(x, x) will return false for every commit
    # @see https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/pull/4362
    repo.branches.select { |branch| repo.descendant_of?(branch.target_id, full_sha) || full_sha == branch.target_id }
  end
end
