[PATCH 12/12] gc + reflog: don't stall before initial "git gc" progress output

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

 



Change the "git reflog expire --all" progress output to show progress
on mark_reachable() in addition to the "Expiring reflogs" output added
in the preceding commit.

This is a major UI improvement to the "git gc" progress output, which
in large repositories would seem to hang before the "initial"
"Enumerating objects" phase. E.g. on a linux.git checkout I've got it
previously took me around 10 seconds before I saw any output.

With the change to add the "Expiring reflogs" output in the preceding
commit that ~10 second delay was perhaps ~8-9, now it's pretty much
guaranteed to show output within the first couple of seconds (our
default progress delay).

Why? Because as we iterate through our reflogs to expire in
reflog_exire() we'd always check the reflog for "HEAD" first, and as
we hadn't previously marked anything REACHABLE in mark_reachable()
would almost certainly end up needing to walk a substantial amount of
history to mark commits. In linux.git north of 1 million commits.

Now we'll instead show:

    $ git gc
    Iterating (un)reachable HEAD: 1137354, done.
    Expiring reflogs: 100% (45/45), done.
    ^Enmerating objects: 662499^C
    [...]

The implementation is a bit of a hack. Ideally we'd support nested
progress bars, and the ability to "attach" a sub-progress bar to a
running one. I.e. to optimistically show either:

    Expiring reflogs: X (Y/Z)

Or:

    Expiring reflogs: X (Y/Z) iterating unreachable HEAD: 123456

In this case the problem is that if we have done our initial big
"REACHABLE" iteration we're usually going to process the reflog quite
quickly, but if we haven't we'd stall.

So as a hack pass down a "show_progress" to reflog_expiry_prepare(),
which will only be shown if we haven't processed the UE_HEAD
case. We'll then start a progress bar, which when passed through to
mark_reachable() will almost certainly result in a substantial initial
iteration.

Then when we've done that initial walk we'll stop that progress bar in
our main loop, and start the "Expiring reflogs" progress bar. We'll
usually start it at 2/X, since our "HEAD" was the 1/X usurped by the
"Iterating (un)reachable HEAD" progress bar.

The "usually" would assume that we wouldn't hit the
"cb->no_reachable_progress = 1" case being added here. I.e. if our
configuration is such that we're not going to do the UE_HEAD walk
we'll just fall back on only using "Expiring reflogs". We'll still
start the count at the 2nd reflog, but it shouldn't matter, on e.g. my
linux.git checkout it doesn't, the progress bar goes by too fast to
notice.

It would have been nicer to be able to compute the
"cb->unreachable_expire_kind" before we call reflog_expire(), but to
do that we'd need the "oid", which we'll only know once we lock it.
