[PATCH v4 00/16] refs: implement jump lists for packed backend

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

 



Here is another reroll of my series to implement jump (née skip) lists
for the packed refs backend, based on top of the current 'master'.

Most changes are minor, limited to changing variable names, moving
changes around between patches and tweaking commit messages for clarity.
I think that the first 9 or so patches are stable, but we may want some
more eyes on the remainder.

As usual, a range-diff is included below for convenience.

Thanks in advance for your review.

Jeff King (5):
  refs.c: rename `ref_filter`
  ref-filter.h: provide `REF_FILTER_INIT`
  ref-filter: clear reachable list pointers after freeing
  ref-filter: add `ref_filter_clear()`
  ref-filter.c: parameterize match functions over patterns

Taylor Blau (11):
  builtin/for-each-ref.c: add `--exclude` option
  refs: plumb `exclude_patterns` argument throughout
  refs/packed-backend.c: refactor `find_reference_location()`
  refs/packed-backend.c: implement jump lists to avoid excluded
    pattern(s)
  refs/packed-backend.c: add trace2 counters for jump list
  revision.h: store hidden refs in a `strvec`
  refs/packed-backend.c: ignore complicated hidden refs rules
  refs.h: let `for_each_namespaced_ref()` take excluded patterns
  builtin/receive-pack.c: avoid enumerating hidden references
  upload-pack.c: avoid enumerating hidden refs where possible
  ls-refs.c: avoid enumerating hidden refs where possible
