[PATCH] status: show progress bar if refreshing the index takes too long

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

 



Refreshing the index is usually very fast, but it can still take a
long time sometimes. Cold cache is one, or something else silly (*).
In this case, it's good to show something to let the user know "git
status" is not hanging, it's just busy doing something.

(*) I got called by my colleague because her "git status" took very
    long and looked pretty much like hanging. After a bit of strace,
    it looks to me that git was trying to rehash every single file,
    and this was a big repository. This process could take minutes.

    In this case, I think it was probably because she copied this
    repository to a new place and stat data did not match anymore. So
    git fell back to hashing.

 I need to get this out of my head before I forget. I obviously think
 this is a good idea and could be done in more places, even just to
 deal with cold cache. The hint about "git status -uno" for example,
 could be accompanied by a progress bar for scanning for untracked
 files...

 Another note about rehashing files as part of refresh. We probably
 could do better by hashing in parallel. Or perhaps not because having
 a big lock around object database pretty much kills performance, and
 if I remember correctly none of my core was 100% consumed (i.e. CPU
 bottleneck as an indication that multithread is a good idea...)

 Anyway that's it! Weekend after a long week! I'll read mails and
 respond tomorrow.
