Yes, the most of the logic added by the patch is to percolate the damage
point up the tree to either coalesce or filter the result into manageable
size.
Speaking of that logic, I've been wondering for about a year and a half if
this "if (permille)" exclusion was intentional:
/*
* We don't report dirstat's for
* - the top level
* - or cases where everything came from a single directory
* under this directory (sources == 1).
*/
if (baselen && sources != 1) {
int permille = this_dir * 1000 / changed;
if (permille) {
int percent = permille / 10;
if (percent >= dir->percent) {
fprintf(opt->file, "%s%4d.%01d%% %.*s\n", line_prefix,
percent, permille % 10, baselen, base);
if (!dir->cumulative)
return 0;
}
}
}
If the user sets dir->percent to zero, with an expectation that it will
disable all filtering, shouldn't we show everything?
