[PATCH 0/3] SHA-256: Update commit-graph and multi-pack-index formats

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

 



As discussed [1], there is some concern around binary file formats requiring
the context of the repository config in order to infer hash lengths. Two
formats that were designed with the hash transition in mind (commit-graph
and multi-pack-index) have bytes available to indicate the hash algorithm
used. Let's actually update these formats to be more self-contained with the
two hash algorithms being available.

This merges cleanly with tb/bloom-improvements, but both that branch and
this patch series have merge conflicts with the corrected commit date patch
series [2].

In particular, the following conflict can be resolved in the "obvioius" way:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< HEAD
    header: 43475048 1 $OID_VERSION 3 $NUM_BASE
================================
    header: 43475048 1 1 4 $NUM_BASE
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> abhishek/corrected_commit_date

Instead use:

    header: 43475048 1 $OID_VERSION 4 $NUM_BASE

But, it also needs the following fix to actually work with this series:

diff --git a/t/t5324-split-commit-graph.sh b/t/t5324-split-commit-graph.sh

        EOF

If this is the way we want to go with the formats, then I'll assist
coordinating these textual and semantic merge conflicts.

Thanks, -Stolee
