This is based on ld/sparse-index-blame (merged with 'master' due to an unrelated build issue). Here are two relatively-simple patches that further the sparse index integrations. Did you know that 'fetch' and 'pull' read the index? I didn't, or this would have been an integration much earlier in the cycle. They read the index to look for the .gitmodules file in case there are submodules that need to be fetched. Since looking for a file by name is already protected, we only need to disable 'command_requires_full_index' and we are done. The 'ls-files' builtin is useful when debugging the index, and some scripts use it, too. We are not changing the default behavior which expands a sparse index in order to show all of the cached blobs. Instead, we add a '--sparse' option that allows us to see the sparse directory entries upon request. Combined with --debug, we can see a lot of index details, such as: $ git ls-files --debug --sparse LICENSE ctime: 1634910503:287405820 mtime: 1634910503:287405820 dev: 16777220 ino: 119325319 uid: 501 gid: 20 size: 1098 flags: 200000 README.md ctime: 1634910503:288090279 mtime: 1634910503:288090279 dev: 16777220 ino: 119325320 uid: 501 gid: 20 size: 934 flags: 200000 bin/index.js ctime: 1634910767:828434033 mtime: 1634910767:828434033 dev: 16777220 ino: 119325520 uid: 501 gid: 20 size: 7292 flags: 200000 examples/ ctime: 0:0 mtime: 0:0 dev: 0 ino: 0 uid: 0 gid: 0 size: 0 flags: 40004000 package.json ctime: 1634910503:288676330 mtime: 1634910503:288676330 dev: 16777220 ino: 119325321 uid: 501 gid: 20 size: 680 flags: 200000 (In this example, the 'examples/' directory is sparse.) Thanks! Updates in v2 ============= * Rebased onto latest ld/sparse-index-blame without issue. * Updated the test to use diff-of-diffs instead of a sequence of greps. * Added patches that remove the use of 'test-tool read-cache --table' and its implementation.
