8 * The trace API can be used to print debug messages to stderr or a file. Trace
9 * code is inactive unless explicitly enabled by setting `GIT_TRACE*` environment
10 * variables.
11 *
12 * The trace implementation automatically adds `timestamp file:line ... \n` to
13 * all trace messages. E.g.:
14 *
15 * ------------
16 * 23:59:59.123456 git.c:312 trace: built-in: git 'foo'
17 * 00:00:00.000001 builtin/foo.c:99 foo: some message
18 * ------------
19 *
20 * Bugs & Caveats
21 * --------------
22 *
23 * GIT_TRACE_* environment variables can be used to tell Git to show
24 * trace output to its standard error stream. Git can often spawn a pager
25 * internally to run its subcommand and send its standard output and
26 * standard error to it.
27 *
28 * Because GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE trace is generated only at the very end
29 * of the program with atexit(), which happens after the pager exits, it
30 * would not work well if you send its log to the standard error output
31 * and let Git spawn the pager at the same time.
32 *
33 * As a work around, you can for example use '--no-pager', or set
34 * GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE to another file descriptor which is redirected
35 * to stderr, or set GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE to a file specified by its
36 * absolute path.
37 *
38 * For example instead of the following command which by default may not
39 * print any performance information:
40 *
41 * ------------
42 * GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=2 git log -1
43 * ------------
44 *
45 * you may want to use:
46 *
47 * ------------
48 * GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=2 git --no-pager log -1
49 * ------------
50 *
51 * or:
52 *
53 * ------------
54 * GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=3 3>&2 git log -1
55 * ------------
56 *
57 * or:
58 *
59 * ------------
60 * GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=/path/to/log/file git log -1
61 * ------------

65/**
66 * Defines a trace key (or category). The default (for API functions that
67 * don't take a key) is `GIT_TRACE`.
68 *
69 * E.g. to define a trace key controlled by environment variable `GIT_TRACE_FOO`:
70 *
71 * ------------

73 *

75 * {
76 * trace_printf_key(&trace_foo, "%s", message);
77 * }
78 * ------------
79 *
80 * Note: don't use `const` as the trace implementation stores internal state in
81 * the `trace_key` structure.
