From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>
Make use of the new find_basename_matches() function added in the last
two patches, to find renames more rapidly in cases where we can match up
files based on basenames. As a quick reminder (see the last two commit
messages for more details), this means for example that
docs/extensions.txt and docs/config/extensions.txt are considered likely
renames if there are no 'extensions.txt' files elsewhere among the added
and deleted files, and if a similarity check confirms they are similar,
then they are marked as a rename without looking for a better similarity
match among other files. This is a behavioral change, as covered in
more detail in the previous commit message.
We do not use this heuristic together with either break or copy
detection. The point of break detection is to say that filename
similarity does not imply file content similarity, and we only want to
know about file content similarity. The point of copy detection is to
use more resources to check for additional similarities, while this is
an optimization that uses far less resources but which might also result
in finding slightly fewer similarities. So the idea behind this
optimization goes against both of those features, and will be turned off
for both.
For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:
Before After
no-renames: 13.815 s ± 0.062 s 13.294 s ± 0.103 s
mega-renames: 1799.937 s ± 0.493 s 187.248 s ± 0.882 s
just-one-mega: 51.289 s ± 0.019 s 5.557 s ± 0.017 s
