[PATCH v3 1/7] fetch: speed up lookup of want refs via commit-graph

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

 



When updating our local refs based on the refs fetched from the remote,
we need to iterate through all requested refs and load their respective
commits such that we can determine whether they need to be appended to
FETCH_HEAD or not. In cases where we're fetching from a remote with
exceedingly many refs, resolving these refs can be quite expensive given
that we repeatedly need to unpack object headers for each of the
referenced objects.

Speed this up by opportunistically trying to resolve object IDs via the
commit graph. We only do so for any refs which are not in "refs/tags":
more likely than not, these are going to be a commit anyway, and this
lets us avoid having to unpack object headers completely in case the
object is a commit that is part of the commit-graph. This significantly
speeds up mirror-fetches in a real-world repository with
2.3M refs:

    Benchmark #1: HEAD~: git-fetch
      Time (mean ± σ):     56.482 s ±  0.384 s    [User: 53.340 s, System: 5.365 s]
      Range (min … max):   56.050 s … 57.045 s    5 runs

    Benchmark #2: HEAD: git-fetch
      Time (mean ± σ):     33.727 s ±  0.170 s    [User: 30.252 s, System: 5.194 s]
      Range (min … max):   33.452 s … 33.871 s    5 runs

    Summary
      'HEAD: git-fetch' ran
        1.67 ± 0.01 times faster than 'HEAD~: git-fetch'
