Once we find the absolute paths for git_dir and work_tree, we can make git_dir a relative path since we know pwd will be work_tree. This should save the kernel some time traversing the path to work_tree all the time if git_dir is inside work_tree. Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Not only was work_tree potentially NULL, it was also already a copied canonical path. So this simpler patch should be better. cache.h | 1 + path.c | 17 +++++++++++++++++ setup.c | 3 ++- 3 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h index eab1a17..3465c94 100644 --- a/cache.h +++ b/cache.h @@ -524,6 +524,7 @@ static inline int is_absolute_path(const char *path) return path[0] == '/'; } const char *make_absolute_path(const char *path); +const char *make_relative_path(const char *abs, const char *base); /* Read and unpack a sha1 file into memory, write memory to a sha1 file */ extern int sha1_object_info(const unsigned char *, unsigned long *); diff --git a/path.c b/path.c index b7c24a2..790d8d4 100644 --- a/path.c +++ b/path.c @@ -294,6 +294,23 @@ int adjust_shared_perm(const char *path) /* We allow "recursive" symbolic links.
