Here's an updated version of the series posted here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/176861 I'll discuss specific changes in each patch, but the summary is: 1. object-cache is now called metadata-cache. 2. The interface to "decorate" and "metadata-cache" is a little cleaner, and it's harder to break it by changing the "width" field at runtime. 3. Cache files have a header with a version for future-proofing. 4. Cache files on disk are automatically invalidated if grafts or replace refs change. The patches are: [1/6]: decorate: allow storing values instead of pointers [2/6]: add metadata-cache infrastructure [3/6]: commit: add commit_generation function [4/6]: pretty: support %G to show the generation number of a commit [5/6]: check commit generation cache validity against grafts [6/6]: limit "contains" traversals based on commit generation -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
