Textually, I do not think it is anything too serious; it is mostly a case of adding unrelated lines in the same spot. I am happy to help with resolving that if there is a need. However, there may be semantic conflicts. The big one I can think of is how packfile reuse interacts with various versions. We only do pack reuse during a --stdout pack to a client. At this point, that means we must be outputting packv2. If we have packv2 on disk, we are fine. If we have packv4 on disk, I guess we simply need to disable reuse, which should not be hard. Once we start sending packv4 to clients, we'll have to reevaluate. Probably we can just get away with turning off reuse when there is a mismatch, though if my understanding of packv4 is correct, we could still reuse packv2 entries. We can put that off until somebody works on packv4-on-the-wire, though. :) > * jk/pack-bitmap (2013-11-18) 22 commits > - compat/mingw.h: Fix the MinGW and msvc builds > - pack-bitmap: implement optional name_hash cache > - t/perf: add tests for pack bitmaps > - t: add basic bitmap functionality tests > - count-objects: recognize .bitmap in garbage-checking > - repack: consider bitmaps when performing repacks > - repack: handle optional files created by pack-objects > - repack: turn exts array into array-of-struct > - repack: stop using magic number for ARRAY_SIZE(exts) > - pack-objects: implement bitmap writing > - rev-list: add bitmap mode to speed up object lists > - pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects > - pack-bitmap: add support for bitmap indexes > - documentation: add documentation for the bitmap format > - ewah: compressed bitmap implementation > - compat: add endianness helpers > - sha1_file: export `git_open_noatime` > - revision: allow setting custom limiter function > - pack-objects: factor out name_hash > - pack-objects: refactor the packing list > - revindex: export new APIs > - sha1write: make buffer const-correct > > Borrows the bitmap index into packfiles from JGit to speed up > enumeration of objects involved in a commit range without having to > fully traverse the history. Looks like you picked up my latest re-roll with Ramsay's fix on top. There wasn't a lot of review on this past round (I'm not surprised; it's a dauntingly large chunk to review). I outlined a few possible open issues in the cover letter, but I'd be happy to build those on top, which I think will make review of them a lot easier. Do we want to try this in 'next' post-1.8.5, or should I try to prod an area expert like Shawn into doing another round of review? -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
