[PATCH 1/2] Clean up reflog unreachability pruning decision

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

This clarifies the pruning rules for unreachable commits by having a 
separate helpder function for the unreachability decision.

It's preparation for actual bigger changes to come to speed up the
decision when the reachability calculations become a bottleneck.

In the process it also _does_ change behavior, although in a way that I 
think is much saner than the old behavior (which was in my opinion not 
designed, just a result of how the tests were written). It now will prune 
reflog entries that are older than that 'prune_unreacable' time _and_ that 
have commit references that can't be even looked up.

Of course, "--stale-fix" also does that, and does it regardless of the age 
of the reflog entry is, but I really think this is the right thing to do. 
If we can't even look it up, we should consider it to be unreachable.

Note the behavioural change. I think it's sane and "ObviouslyCorrect(tm)", 
but maybe somebody disagrees.
