[RFC PATCH 5/5] Accelerate ensure_skip_worktree_means_skip_worktree by caching

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

 



Rather than lstat()'ing every SKIP_WORKTREE path, take advantage of the
fact that entire directories will often be missing, especially for cone
mode and even more so ever since commit 55dfcf9591 ("sparse-checkout:
clear tracked sparse dirs", 2021-09-08).  If we have already determined
that the parent directory of a file (or any other previous ancestor)
does not exist, then we already know the file cannot exist and do not
need to lstat() it separately.

Granted, the cost of ensure_skip_worktree_means_skip_worktree() might
be considered a bit high for non-cone mode since it might now lstat()
every SKIP_WORKTREE path when the index is loaded (an O(N) cost, with
N the number of SKIP_WORKTREE paths), but non-cone mode users already
have to deal with the O(N*M) cost (with N=the number of tracked files
and M=the number of sparsity patterns), so this should be reasonable.
