Here is the first full patch series submission coming out of the sparse-index RFC [1]. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.847.git.1611596533.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx/ I won't waste too much space here, because PATCH 1 includes a sizeable design document that describes the feature, the reasoning behind it, and my plan for getting this implemented widely throughout the codebase. There are some new things here that were not in the RFC: * Design doc and format updates. (Patch 1) * Performance test script. (Patches 2 and 20) Notably missing in this series from the RFC: * The mega-patch inserting ensure_full_index() throughout the codebase. That will be a follow-up series to this one. * The integrations with git status and git add to demonstrate the improved performance. Those will also appear in their own series later. I plan to keep my latest work in this area in my 'sparse-index/wip' branch [2]. It includes all of the work from the RFC right now, updated with the work from this series.
