Hi Johannes, Could you please change the commit subject to more clearly state that we are caching all paths. This is not something just related to hooks any more.

I think it would also be a good idea to mention that we are fixing worktree paths not being correct. > This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1755 > > Initial-patch-by: Philipp Gortan <philipp@xxxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> > --- > git-gui.sh | 52 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- > 1 file changed, 49 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/git-gui.sh b/git-gui.sh > index fd476b6999..8b72e59cd0 100755 > --- a/git-gui.sh > +++ b/git-gui.sh > @@ -158,6 +158,7 @@ if {[tk windowingsystem] eq "aqua"} { > > set _appname {Git Gui} > set _gitdir {} > +array set _gitdir_cache {} > set _gitworktree {} > set _isbare {} > set _gitexec {} > @@ -197,12 +198,57 @@ proc appname {} { > return $_appname > } > > +proc prime_gitdir_cache {} { > + global _gitdir _gitdir_cache > + > + set gitdir_cmd [list git rev-parse --git-dir] > + > + # `--git-path` is only supported since Git v2.5.0 > + if {[package vcompare $::_git_version 2.5.0] >= 0} { I think we should mention the source of the list of "magic" keys. A comment mentioning this list came from looking at the common calls to `gitdir` in the rest of the git-gui code would explain this function to a future reader better. > + set gitdir_keys [list \ > + CHERRY_PICK_HEAD FETCH_HEAD GITGUI_BCK GITGUI_EDITMSG \ > + GITGUI_MSG HEAD hooks hooks/prepare-commit-msg \ > + index.lock info info/exclude logs MERGE_HEAD MERGE_MSG \ > + MERGE_RR objects "objects/4\[0-1\]/*" \ > + "objects/4\[0-3\]/*" objects/info \ > + objects/info/alternates objects/pack packed-refs \ > + PREPARE_COMMIT_MSG rebase-merge/head-name remotes \ > + rr-cache rr-cache/MERGE_RR SQUASH_MSG \ > + ] > + > + foreach key $gitdir_keys { > + lappend gitdir_cmd --git-path $key > + } > + } > + > + set i -1 > + foreach path [split [eval $gitdir_cmd] "\n"] { A call to the procedure 'git' is wrapped in a 'catch' in a lot of places. But it is also not wrapped in 'catch' in a lot of other places. I'm not sure how something like this would fail, so I'm not sure if wrapping this call in a catch is a good idea. But it is something to consider. > + if {$i eq -1} { > + set _gitdir $path > + } else { > + set _gitdir_cache([lindex $gitdir_keys $i]) $path > + } > + incr i > + } > +} > + > proc gitdir {args} { > - global _gitdir > + global _gitdir _gitdir_cache > + > if {$args eq {}} { > return $_gitdir > } > - return [eval [list file join $_gitdir] $args] > + > + set args [eval [list file join] $args] > + if {![info exists _gitdir_cache($args)]} { > + if {[package vcompare $::_git_version 2.5.0] >= 0} { > + set _gitdir_cache($args) [git rev-parse --git-path $args] > + } else { > + set _gitdir_cache($args) [file join $_gitdir $args] > + } > + } > + > + return $_gitdir_cache($args) > } > > proc gitexec {args} { > @@ -1242,7 +1288,7 @@ if {[catch { > && [catch { > # beware that from the .git dir this sets _gitdir to . > # and _prefix to the empty string > - set _gitdir [git rev-parse --git-dir] > + prime_gitdir_cache > set _prefix [git rev-parse --show-prefix] > } err]} { > load_config 1 Can these paths we cache change while git-gui is running, say by a command run by the user in the terminal? In that case, we should refresh the list when the user rescans. Other than some minor comments, looks good. Thanks. -- Regards, Pratyush Yadav
