Currently packfile-uri supports the exclusion of blob objects, but
in some scenarios, users may wish to exclude more types of objects,
such as commits, trees and tags, the difference with blob is they are
more complicated. In addition to the meaning of a single object itself,
it may also represent a collection of the objects that it includes
(trees and blob in a root-tree) or reaches (ancestors of a commit).
The exclusion range is designed by an enum named `exclude_level` in
"pack-objects.c" that enumerate three values, "ET_SELF", "ET_INCLUDE"
and "ET_REACHABLE".
Here are some explanations for their differences:
- Scene 1: "ET_SELF" for excluding object itself.
Reason to support the "ET_SELF" is because the definition of
exclusion-level should be better to be consistent, no matter what
the object type is. Excluding a single object itself has meaning for
blobs, because blob is the smallest granularity among object types, and
indeed, sometimes there are some frequently used big-size blobs in
repository.
If you want to exclude more ownership or reachable objects, it can be
considered to use "ET_INCLUDE" or "ET_REACHABLE".
- Scene 2: "ET_INCLUDE" for excluding object itself and objects it
contains.
When a commit is specified to be excluded as packfile-uri,
more offen, it's hoped to exclude the trees and blobs contained in
its top-level tree, as well as the commit itself, but not the
ancestors of the commit. This applies to scenarios where we want to
exclude a specified non-blob object that includes some big-size
objects.
Commit, tag and tree are suitable for this scenario. When a tag
is specified, it will exclude the dereference commit, and all trees and
blobs contained in its top-tree, as well as the tag itself if it's not a
lightweight one.
- Scene 3: "ET_REACHABLE" for excluding object itself, all the objects
it contains, and its ancestors.
For further exclusion range, the ancestors are needed to excluded
together, for example, the clone scenes.
This commit only defines the `exclude_level` enum type. The implementations
of non-blob object types will be added in subsequent commits.
