Some workflows may involve running "git cherry" a lot to
look for identical patches. Git ends up calculating the
patch-id of some commits many times, which can be slow.
This patch provides an option to cache the calculated patch
ids persistently on disk. This trades more disk space (and
more RAM used for disk cache) for less CPU time. Whether
this is a good idea depends on your workflow and how much
disk and RAM you have (the cache uses 40 bytes per stored
commit).
Here's one cherry-heavy workflow (checking which topic
branches have been accepted upstream), and some timings:
have_commits() {
test -z "`git cherry "$@" | grep -v ^-`"
}
for i in $topic_branches; do
if have_commits origin/master $i $i@{u}; then
echo $i: merged to origin/master
elif have_commits origin/next $i $i@{u}; then
echo $i: merged to origin/next
else
echo $i: not merged
done

user 0m8.693s
sys 0m0.676s
