[PATCH 09/17] refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refs

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

 



In iterating over the loose refs in "refs/foo/", we keep a
running strbuf with "refs/foo/one", "refs/foo/two", etc. But
we also need to access these files in the filesystem, as
".git/refs/foo/one", etc. For this latter purpose, we make a
series of independent calls to git_path(). These are safe
(we only use the result to call stat()), but assigning the
result of git_path is a suspicious pattern that we'd rather
avoid.

This patch keeps a running buffer with ".git/refs/foo/", and
we can just append/reset each directory element as we loop.
This matches how we handle the refnames. It should also be
more efficient, as we do not keep formatting the same
".git/refs/foo" prefix (which can be arbitrarily deep).

Technically we are dropping a call to strbuf_cleanup() on
each generated filename, but that's OK; it wasn't doing
anything, as we are putting in single-level names we read
from the filesystem (so it could not possibly be cleaning up
cruft like "./" in this instance).

A clever reader may also note that the running refname
buffer ("refs/foo/") is actually a subset of the filesystem
path buffer (".git/refs/foo/"). We could get by with one
buffer, indexing the length of $GIT_DIR when we want the
refname. However, having tried this, the resulting code
actually ends up a little more confusing, and the efficiency
improvement is tiny (and almost certainly dwarfed by the
system calls we are making).
