[PATCH 1/5] diff_tree_sha1: skip diff_tree if old == new

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

 



This was seen to happen in some invocations of git-log with a filtered
path. Only do it if we are not recursively descending, as otherwise we
mess with copy and rename detection in full tree moves.

We need to exclude times when FIND_COPIES_HARDER is enabled as the diff
machinery requires traversal of all files in this case to find copies
from files that did not change at all in the given revision.

These next few patches are all derived from trying to make operations on this
repository a bit faster:
    http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/

As far as a different shape of repository, this one qualifies. Some stats from
after running `git gc --prune` and looking at things from count-objects among
others:

                    arch-packages   linux-2.6
in-pack:                   496718     1979274
size-pack:                 112582      513977
ls | wc -l:                  2401          34
ls-tree -r | wc -l          14039       36706
ls-tree -r -t | grep ' tree ' | wc -l
                            11211        2256
time git log -- zzzzz_not_exist >/dev/null
                          35.558s      0.976s

I didn't find some golden switch to turn that made things instantly fast, but
these patches did at least give some speedups. Suggestions/feedback/etc.
welcome. Most profiling was done with `valgrind --tool=callgrind` and then
using kcachegrind to chase down slow spots.
