[PATCH v4 0/6] Speed up connectivity checks

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

 



Hi,

this is version 4 of my series to speed up connectivity checks. Given
that v3 has received positive feedback, I finally stuck to the approach
and only have a bunch of iterative changes based on your feedback.

Changes compared to v3:

    - Patch 1/6 is new and splits up revs->no_walk into revs->no_walk
      which now only indicates whether to walk and revs->unserted_input,
      which indicates whether to sort input.

    - Patch 2/6 got some documentation for the new `--unsorted-input`
      option. Furthermore, we refuse `--no-walk`/`--no-walk=sorted` and
      `--unsorted-input` if used together. I've also added some tests
      for the new option.

    - Patch 3/6 has an updated commit message, detailing that
      `add_pending_oid()` only is a thin wrapper around
      `add_pending_object()`.

    - Patch 4/6 has an update commit message, stating that it's a
      prerequisite for 6/6.

    - Patch 5/6 is new, splitting out the logic to find a commit ID in
      the commit graph as a prerequisite for 6/6.

    - Patch 6/6 now also verifies that commits parsed only via the
      commit-graph exist in the ODB. I've also renamed
      `find_object_in_graph()` to `parse_commit_in_graph_gently()` to
      better reflect what the function does.

With the added existence check in 6/6, the speedup is not as big as
before (1.47x faster instead of 1.55x). But it's still very much worth
it. In total, this patch series decreases `git rev-list --objects
--unsorted --not --all --not $newrev` from 7.6s to 3.0s in my test
repository.

Thanks for all your feedback!

Patrick
