[PATCH RESEND2] git gui: Use git diff --submodule when available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Changed the use of submodule summary to diff --submodule because the
implementation in C is much faster than the submodule script. Also a test
has been added to make sure that the underlying git supports the diff
option --submodule (which was introduced in 1.6.6).

Did not hear anything about my last resend on December 28th, so i try
again.

To explain what i mean by "much faster", here are the numbers (best of
three) for a small repo with a changed submodule (git checkout HEAD^)
under Linux:


time git submodule summary
<snip>

real	0m0.219s
user	0m0.050s
sys	0m0.111s


time git diff --submodule
<snip>

real	0m0.012s
user	0m0.003s
sys	0m0.009s


In my experience this patch changes the user experience from
"a noticeable delay" to "instantaneous".
