[RFC PATCH 8/8] sequencer: try to commit without forking 'git commit'

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

 



From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the commit message does not need to be edited then create the
commit without forking 'git commit'. Taking the best time of ten runs
with a warm cache this reduces the time taken to cherry-pick 10
commits by 26% (from 319ms to 235ms), and the time taken by 'git
rebase --continue' to pick 10 commits by 44% (from 376ms to 211ms) on
my computer running linux. The greater saving for rebase is because it
longer wastes time creating the commit summary just to throw it away.

Even when not forking 'git commit' the commit message is written to a
file and CHERRY_PICK_HEAD/REVERT_HEAD are created unnecessarily. This
could be eliminated in future. I hacked up a version that does not
write these files and just passed an strbuf (with the wrong message
for fixup and squash commands) to do_commit() but I couldn't measure
any significant time difference when running cherry-pick or rebase. I
think eliminating the writes properly for rebase would require a bit
of effort as the code would need to be restructured.

I wonder if this should reparse the author it gets from the existing
commit rather than just reusing it.
