[PATCH v2 00/25] Prepare to separate out a packed_ref_store

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

 



This is the second iteration of a patch series that prepares the
ground for separating out a `packed_ref_store` and then for changing
`packed-refs` to be read using `mmap()`. Thanks to Peff, Junio,
Stefan, Brandon, and Johannes for their feedback about v1 [1]. I think
I have addressed all of your comments.

Changes since v1:

* Since v1, branch `bc/object-id` has been merged to `next`, and it
  has lots of conflicts with these changes. So I rebased this branch
  onto a merge of `master` and `bc/object-id`. (I hope this makes
  Junio's job easier.) This unfortunately causes a bit of tbdiff noise
  between v1 and v2.

* Patch [01/25]: in t3600, register the `test_when_finished` command
  before executing `chmod a-w`.

* Patch [04/25] (new patch): convert a few `die("internal error: ...")`
  to `die("BUG: ...")`.

* Patch [05/25]: Use `strlen()` rather than `memchr()` to check the
  trim length, and `die()` rather than skipping if it is longer than
  the reference name.

* Patch [08/25]: Name the log message arguments `msg` for consistency
  with existing code.

* Patch [10/25]: Rename the new member from `packlock` to
  `packed_refs_lock`.

* Patch [13/25] (new patch): Move the check for valid
  `transaction->state` from `files_transaction_commit()` to
  `ref_transaction_commit()`.

* Patch [14/25]:

  * Add more sanity checks of `transaction->state`.

  * Don't add `ref_transaction_finish()` to the public API. Instead,
    teach `ref_transaction_commit()` to do the right thing whether or
    not `ref_transaction_prepare()` has been called.

  * Add and improve docstrings.

  * Allow `ref_transaction_abort()` to be called even before
    `ref_transaction_prepare()` (in which case it just calls
    `ref_transaction_free()`).

* Lots of improvements to commit messages and comments, mostly to
  clarify points that reviewers asked about.

These changes (along with the merge commit that they are based on) are
also available as branch `packed-ref-store-prep` in my GitHub fork
[2]. If you'd like to see a preview of the rest of the changes (which
works but is not yet polished), checkout the `mmap-packed-refs` branch
from the same place.
