Any other checkout options will still go through the former code path. If sparse_checkout is on, require the user to manually opt in to this optimzed behavior by setting the config setting checkout.optimizeNewBranch to true as we will no longer update the skip-worktree bit in the index, nor add/remove files in the working directory to reflect the current sparse checkout settings. For comparison, running "git checkout -b <new_branch>" on a large repo takes: 14.6 seconds - without this patch 0.3 seconds - with this patch Signed-off-by: Ben Peart <Ben.Peart@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> :040000 040000 817bfb8ef961545a554005d42967b5ab7cfdb041 e57e576d0d4fb7f25c12a5dcc7651ef6698e961b M Documentation :040000 040000 c089f91f4532caa2a17e4f10a1a7ed3aa5d2023c 7cf16a0aa288f898a880ffefe82ee7506b83bef4 M builtin :040000 040000 adfdb05964a692e03ee07d2e43841f6304d996bd 8681416093802b9051599ebea8f63f5a45968e6f M t bisect run success Here's the script and invocations: ``` #!/usr/bin/env bash set -euxo pipefail rm -rf "$PWD/prefix" make prefix="$PWD/prefix" -j8 install export PATH="$PWD/prefix/bin:$PATH" rm -rf src dest git --version git init src echo hi > src/a git -C src add . git -C src commit -m "initial commit" rev="$(git -C src rev-parse HEAD)" git clone --no-checkout src dest git -C dest checkout "$rev" -b branch test -f dest/a : 'SUCCESS!' ``` ``` git bisect begin git bisect bad HEAD git bisect good v2.17.1 git bisect run ./bisect.sh ``` Anthony
