This is nice. It does not do anything specific with HFS+ issues but aims for faster look-ups, which would help everybody. Two things I noticed (only two, not necessarily because you are good but mostly because I am still mired in day job and could not get enough uninterrupted minutes to read the patch ;-)): - You might want to store the hash table (once computed) in the index extension section, and lazily unpack the table the first time index_name_exists() or set_index_entry() is called on the given istate, instead of unpacking it immediately when you read from the disk. That way, ls-files does not have to suffer at all. - You would need to get rid of the table in discard_index(). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
