[PATCH v3 00/26] inotify support

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

 



I'm happy with this now. The only things left are applying ewah on the
watch index extension and maybe improve lookup performance a bit. The
former needs jk/pack-bitmap graduated. The latter is not urgent. Oh
and maybe address "BUGS" section (more like known limitations) in
git-file-watcher.txt.

For early adopters that fear a buggy file-watcher may cause update
loss, set GIT_TEST_WATCHED=1 (or 2). It'll do lstat() to verify
file-watcher results (so no perf. gain). Beware of race condition
that may lead to false positives, mentioned in 20/26 (maybe I should
do something about it).
