Here's v5 of the performance tracing patch series, now including a bunch of cleanups and adding timestamp, file and line to all trace output. I'm particularly interested in feedback for the output format. As file names have different lengths, printing file:line as prefix results in unaligned output: > GIT_TRACE=1 git stash list 00:12:10.544266 git.c:512 trace: exec: 'git-stash' 'list' 00:12:10.544266 run-command.c:337 trace: run_command: 'git-stash' 'list' 00:12:10.649779 git.c:312 trace: built-in: git 'rev-parse' '--git-dir' We could add separators to make it easier to parse, e.g.: > GIT_TRACE=1 git stash list [00:12:10.544266 git.c:512] trace: exec: 'git-stash' 'list' [00:12:10.544266 run-command.c:337] trace: run_command: 'git-stash' 'list' [00:12:10.649779 git.c:312] trace: built-in: git 'rev-parse' '--git-dir' Or print file:line at the end (but what about multi-line messages, such as packet-trace?): > GIT_TRACE=1 git stash list 00:12:10.544266 trace: exec: 'git-stash' 'list' (git.c:512) 00:12:10.544266 trace: run_command: 'git-stash' 'list' (run-command.c:337) 00:12:10.649779 trace: built-in: git 'rev-parse' '--git-dir' (git.c:312) Karsten Blees (11): trace: move trace declarations from cache.h to new trace.h trace: consistently name the format parameter trace: remove redundant printf format attribute trace: factor out printing to the trace file trace: add infrastructure to augment trace output with additional info trace: add current timestamp to all trace output trace: move code around, in preparation to file:line output trace: add 'file:line' to all trace output trace: add high resolution timer function to debug performance issues trace: add trace_performance facility to debug performance issues git: add performance tracing for git's main() function to debug scripts Makefile | 7 ++ cache.h | 13 +-- config.mak.uname | 1 + git-compat-util.h | 4 + git.c | 2 + trace.c | 304 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- trace.h | 96 +++++++++++++++++ 7 files changed, 379 insertions(+), 48 deletions(-) create mode 100644 trace.h -- 1.9.2.msysgit.0.501.gaeecf09 -- 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
