In a similar fashion as a previous commit, teach `upload-pack` to avoid enumerating hidden references where possible. Note, however, that there are certain cases where cannot avoid enumerating even hidden references, in particular when either of: - `uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant`, or - `uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant` are set, corresponding to `ALLOW_TIP_SHA1` and `ALLOW_REACHABLE_SHA1`, respectively. When either of these bits are set, upload-pack's `is_our_ref()` function needs to consider the `HIDDEN_REF` bit of the referent's object flags. So we must visit all references, including the hidden ones, in order to mark their referents with the `HIDDEN_REF` bit. When neither `ALLOW_TIP_SHA1` nor `ALLOW_REACHABLE_SHA1` are set, the `is_our_ref()` function considers only the `OUR_REF` bit, and not the `HIDDEN_REF` one. `OUR_REF` is applied via `mark_our_ref()`, and only to objects at the tips of non-hidden references, so we do not need to visit hidden references in this case. When neither of those bits are set, `upload-pack` can potentially avoid enumerating a large number of references. In the same example as a previous commit (linux.git with one hidden reference per commit, "refs/pull/N"): $ printf 0000 >in $ hyperfine --warmup=1 \ 'git -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in' \ 'git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull -c uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant upload-pack . <in' \ 'git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in' Benchmark 1: git -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in Time (mean ± σ): 406.9 ms ± 1.1 ms [User: 357.3 ms, System: 49.5 ms] Range (min … max): 405.7 ms … 409.2 ms 10 runs Benchmark 2: git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull -c uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant upload-pack . <in Time (mean ± σ): 406.5 ms ± 1.3 ms [User: 356.5 ms, System: 49.9 ms] Range (min … max): 404.6 ms … 408.8 ms 10 runs Benchmark 3: git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in Time (mean ± σ): 4.7 ms ± 0.2 ms [User: 0.7 ms, System: 3.9 ms] Range (min … max): 4.3 ms … 6.1 ms 472 runs Summary 'git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in' ran 86.62 ± 4.33 times faster than 'git.compile -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull -c uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant upload-pack . <in' 86.70 ± 4.33 times faster than 'git -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/pull upload-pack . <in' As above, we must visit every reference when uploadPack.allowTipSHA1InWant is set. But when it is unset, we can visit far fewer references.
