Current NURBS evaluation handles corners or sharp angles poorly. Sharp
edges appear when a knot vector value is repeated `order - 1` times.
Users can make sharp corners by creating NURBS curve with `Bezier` knot
mode or by setting `order` to 2 for legacy curves. The problem occurs
because current algorithm takes all the curve's definition interval,
divides it into equal parts and evaluates at those points, but corners
are exactly on repeated knot's. To hit those, the resolution has to be
increased higher than required for the rest of the curve.
The new algorithm divides non zero length intervals between two adjacent
knots into equal parts. This way corners are hit with a resolution of 1.
This does change the evaluated points of NURBS curves, which is why some
test results have to be updated in this commit.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/138565
This change moves the tests data files and publish folder of assets
repository to the main blender.git repository as LFS files.
The goal of this change is to eliminate toil of modifying tests,
cherry-picking changes to LFS branches, adding tests as part of a
PR which brings new features or fixes.
More detailed explanation and conversation can be found in the
design task.
