[PATCH v2 0/5] Sparse Index: Integrate with 'git add'

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

 



This patch series re-submits the 'git add' integration with sparse-index.
The performance gains are the same as before.

It is based on ds/commit-and-checkout-with-sparse-index.

This series was delayed from its initial submission for a couple reasons.

The first was because it was colliding with some changes in
mt/add-rm-in-sparse-checkout, so now we are far enough along that that
branch is in our history and we can work forwards.

The other concern was about how 'git add ' should respond when a path
outside of the sparse-checkout cone exists. One recommendation (that I am
failing to find a link to the message, sorry) was to disallow adding files
that would become index entries with SKIP_WORKTREE on. However, as I worked
towards that goal I found that change would cause problems for a realistic
scenario: merge conflicts outside of the sparse-checkout cone.

Update: Elijah points out that the SKIP_WORKTREE bit is removed from
conflict files, which allows adding the conflicted files without warning.
(However, we also need to be careful about untracked files, as documented in
the test added here.)

The first patch of this series adds tests that create merge conflicts
outside of the sparse cone and then presents different ways a user could
resolve the situation. We want all of them to be feasible, and this
includes:

 1. Reverting the file to a known version in history.
 2. Adding the file with its contents on disk.
 3. Moving the file to a new location in the sparse directory.

The one place I did continue to update is 'git add --refresh ' to match the
behavior added by mt/add-rm-in-sparse-checkout which outputs an error
message. This happens even when the file exists in the working directory,
but that seems appropriate enough.


Updates in V2
=============

 * Test comments in patch 1 are improved.

 * The test hunk that was removed in patch 2 and reintroduced in the old
   patch 4 is modified to clarify how the behavior changes with that patch.
   Then, the test is modified by future patches.

 * Another instance of ensure_full_index() is removed from the --renormalize
   option. This option already ignored files with the SKIP_WORKTREE bit, so
   this should be an obviously-correct removal.

 * a full proposal for what to do with "git (add|mv|rm)" and paths outside
   the cone is delayed to another series (with an RFC round) because the
   behavior of the sparse-index matches a full index with sparse-checkout.

Thanks, -Stolee
