[PATCH v2 4/4] tree_entry_interesting: do basedir compare on wildcard patterns when possible

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

 



Currently we treat "*.c" and "path/to/*.c" the same way. Which means
we check all possible paths in repo against "path/to/*.c". One could
see that "path/elsewhere/foo.c" obviously cannot match "path/to/*.c"
and we only need to check all paths _inside_ "path/to/" against that
pattern.

This patch checks the leading fixed part of a pathspec against base
directory and exit early if possible. We could even optimize further
in "path/to/something*.c" case (i.e. check the fixed part against
name_entry as well) but that's more complicated and probably does not
gain us much.

-O2 build on linux-2.6, without and with this patch respectively:
