[PATCH v4 02/10] diffcore-rename: provide basic implementation of idx_possible_rename()

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

 



From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

Add a new struct dir_rename_info with various values we need inside our
idx_possible_rename() function introduced in the previous commit.  Add a
basic implementation for this function showing how we plan to use the
variables, but which will just return early with a value of -1 (not
found) when those variables are not set up.

Future commits will do the work necessary to set up those other
variables so that idx_possible_rename() does not always return -1.

+	 * Our comparison of files with the same basename (see
+	 * find_basename_matches() below), is only helpful when after exact
+	 * rename detection we have exactly one file with a given basename
+	 * among the rename sources and also only exactly one file with
+	 * that basename among the rename destinations.  When we have
+	 * multiple files with the same basename in either set, we do not
+	 * know which to compare against.  However, there are some
+	 * filenames that occur in large numbers (particularly
+	 * build-related filenames such as 'Makefile', '.gitignore', or
+	 * 'build.gradle' that potentially exist within every single
+	 * subdirectory), and for performance we want to be able to quickly
+	 * find renames for these files too.
+	 *
+	 * The reason basename comparisons are a useful heuristic was that it
+	 * is common for people to move files across directories while keeping
+	 * their filename the same.  If we had a way of determining or even
+	 * making a good educated guess about which directory these non-unique
+	 * basename files had moved the file to, we could check it.
+	 * Luckily...
+	 *
+	 * When an entire directory is in fact renamed, we have two factors
+	 * helping us out:
+	 *   (a) the original directory disappeared giving us a hint
+	 *       about when we can apply an extra heuristic.
+	 *   (a) we often have several files within that directory and
+	 *       subdirectories that are renamed without changes
+	 * So, rules for a heuristic:
+	 *   (0) If there basename matches are non-unique (the condition under
+	 *       which this function is called) AND
+	 *   (1) the directory in which the file was found has disappeared
+	 *       (i.e. dirs_removed is non-NULL and has a relevant entry) THEN
+	 *   (2) use exact renames of files within the directory to determine
+	 *       where the directory is likely to have been renamed to.  IF
+	 *       there is at least one exact rename from within that
+	 *       directory, we can proceed.
+	 *   (3) If there are multiple places the directory could have been
+	 *       renamed to based on exact renames, ignore all but one of them.
+	 *       Just use the destination with the most renames going to it.
+	 *   (4) Check if applying that directory rename to the original file
+	 *       would result in a destination filename that is in the
+	 *       potential rename set.  If so, return the index of the
+	 *       destination file (the index within rename_dst).
+	 *   (5) Compare the original file and returned destination for
+	 *       similarity, and if they are sufficiently similar, record the
+	 *       rename.
+	 *
+	 * This function, idx_possible_rename(), is only responsible for (4).
+	 * The conditions/steps in (1)-(3) will be handled via setting up
+	 * dir_rename_count and dir_rename_guess in a future
+	 * initialize_dir_rename_info() function.  Steps (0) and (5) are
+	 * handled by the caller of this function.
