[PATCH v2 3/3] core.fsync: new option to harden the index

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

 



From: Neeraj Singh <neerajsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This commit introduces the new ability for the user to harden
the index. In the event of a system crash, the index must be
durable for the user to actually find a file that has been added
to the repo and then deleted from the working tree.

We use the presence of the COMMIT_LOCK flag and absence of the
alternate_index_output as a proxy for determining whether we're
updating the persistent index of the repo or some temporary
index. We don't sync these temporary indexes.
