[PATCH 01/17] path-walk: introduce an object walk by path

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

 



From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@xxxxxxxxx>

In anticipation of a few planned applications, introduce the most basic form
of a path-walk API. It currently assumes that there are no UNINTERESTING
objects and does not include any complicated filters. It calls a function
pointer on groups of tree and blob objects as grouped by path. This only
includes objects the first time they are discovered, so an object that
appears at multiple paths will not be included in two batches.

There are many future adaptations that could be made, but they are left for
future updates when consumers are ready to take advantage of those features.

+Path-Walk API
+=============
+
+The path-walk API is used to walk reachable objects, but to visit objects
+in batches based on a common path they appear in, or by type.
+
+For example, all reachable commits are visited in a group. All tags are
+visited in a group. Then, all root trees are visited. At some point, all
+blobs reachable via a path `my/dir/to/A` are visited. When there are
+multiple paths possible to reach the same object, then only one of those
+paths is used to visit the object.
+
+When walking a range of commits with some `UNINTERESTING` objects, the
+objects with the `UNINTERESTING` flag are included in these batches. In
+order to walk `UNINTERESTING` objects, the `--boundary` option must be
+used in the commit walk in order to visit `UNINTERESTING` commits.
+
+Basics
+------
+
+To use the path-walk API, include `path-walk.h` and call
+`walk_objects_by_path()` with a customized `path_walk_info` struct. The
+struct is used to set all of the options for how the walk should proceed.
+Let's dig into the different options and their use.
+
+`path_fn` and `path_fn_data`::
+	The most important option is the `path_fn` option, which is a
+	function pointer to the callback that can execute logic on the
+	object IDs for objects grouped by type and path. This function
+	also receives a `data` value that corresponds to the
+	`path_fn_data` member, for providing custom data structures to
+	this callback function.
+
+`revs`::
+	To configure the exact details of the reachable set of objects,
+	use the `revs` member and initialize it using the revision
+	machinery in `revision.h`. Initialize `revs` using calls such as
+	`setup_revisions()` or `parse_revision_opt()`. Do not call
+	`prepare_revision_walk()`, as that will be called within
+	`walk_objects_by_path()`.
++
+It is also important that you do not specify the `--objects` flag for the
+`revs` struct. The revision walk should only be used to walk commits, and
+the objects will be walked in a separate way based on those starting
+commits.
++
+If you want the path-walk API to emit `UNINTERESTING` objects based on the
+commit walk's boundary, be sure to set `revs.boundary` so the boundary
+commits are emitted.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+See example usages in future changes.
