If the changed-path Bloom filters are relatively stable, then I propose trying to build upon them as a way to discover any deficiencies. Also, it's good to use them when we can. The goal I set out to achieve was to use Bloom filters as much as possible in git blame. I think I have achieved most of that, except I did not integrate it with the -C mode. In that case, the blob-diff computation takes a majority of the computation time, so short-circuiting the tree diff using Bloom filters. Also, it's just really complicated. If someone else thinks there is an easy win there, then please go ahead and give it a try with the extra logic presented here in PATCH 3. While I was playing around with Bloom filters and git blame, I purposefully got it working with some scenarios but not all. Then I tried to trigger a failing build in the blame tests using GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=1 and GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH_CHANGED_PATHS=1. But the tests all succeeded! Examining the data, I see that the commit-graph didn't have the Bloom filter chunks at all. This is because we are not setting the flag to write them in the right spot. The GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH=1 variable triggers a commit-graph write during git commit, so we need to update the code there instead of just inspecting the variable in git commit-graph write. (This is PATCH 2.) By updating this variable, I saw some test failures in other tests regarding non-exact pathspecs. I fixed these in PATCH 1 so we keep clean builds. I based this change on [1] but it would apply cleanly (and logically) on gs/commit-graph-path-filter Updates in v2: * Added PATCH 3 to write commit-graph files during 'git merge' if GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH is enabled. * Updated PATCH 1 with the simplification recommended by Taylor. * Fixed the lower-case "bloom" in the commit message.
