From: Orgad Shaneh <orgads@xxxxxxxxx> The argv argument of collect_changed_submodules() contains obly object ids (the objects references of all the refs). Notify setup_revisions() that the input is not filenames by passing assume_dashdash, so it can avoid redundant stat for each ref. Also suppress refname_ambiguity flag to avoid filesystem lookups for each object. Similar logic can be found in cat-file, pack-objects and more. This change reduces the time for git fetch in my repo from 25s to 6s. Signed-off-by: Orgad Shaneh <orgads@xxxxxxxxx> --- submodule: suppress checking for file name and ref ambiguity for object ids The argv argument of collect_changed_submodules() contains obly object ids (submodule references). Notify setup_revisions() that the input is not filenames by passing assume_dashdash, so it can avoid redundant stat for each ref. A better improvement would be to pass oid_array instead of stringified argv, but that will require a larger change, which can be done later.
