2012-01-18diff-index: enable recursive pathspec matching in unpack_treesLibravatar Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy2-0/+10
The pathspec structure has a few bits of data to drive various operation modes after we unified the pathspec matching logic in various codepaths. For example, max_depth field is there so that "git grep" can limit the output for files found in limited depth of tree traversal. Also in order to show just the surface level differences in "git diff-tree", recursive field stops us from descending into deeper level of the tree structure when it is set to false, and this also affects pathspec matching when we have wildcards in the pathspec. The diff-index has always wanted the recursive behaviour, and wanted to match pathspecs without any depth limit. But we forgot to do so when we updated tree_entry_interesting() logic to unify the pathspec matching logic.

2012-01-12thin-pack: try harder to use preferred base objects as baseLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+7
When creating a pack using objects that reside in existing packs, we try to avoid recomputing futile delta between an object (trg) and a candidate for its base object (src) if they are stored in the same packfile, and trg is not recorded as a delta already. This heuristics makes sense because it is likely that we tried to express trg as a delta based on src but it did not produce a good delta when we created the existing pack. As the pack heuristics prefer producing delta to remove data, and Linus's law dictates that the size of a file grows over time, we tend to record the newest version of the file as inflated, and older ones as delta against it. When creating a thin-pack to transfer recent history, it is likely that we will try to send an object that is recorded in full, as it is newer. But the heuristics to avoid recomputing futile delta effectively forbids us from attempting to express such an object as a delta based on another object. Sending an object in full is often more expensive than sending a suboptimal delta based on other objects, and it is even more so if we could use an object we know the receiving end already has (i.e. preferred base object) as the delta base. Tweak the recomputation avoidance logic, so that we do not punt on computing delta against a preferred base object. The effect of this change can be seen on two simulated upload-pack workloads. The first is based on 44 reflog entries from my git.git origin/master reflog, and represents the packs that kernel.org sent me git updates for the past month or two. The second workload represents much larger fetches, going from git's v1.0.0 tag to v1.1.0, then v1.1.0 to v1.2.0, and so on. The table below shows the average generated pack size and the average CPU time consumed for each dataset, both before and after the patch: dataset | reflog | tags --------------------------------- before | 53358 | 2750977 size after | 32398 | 2668479 change | -39% | -3% --------------------------------- before | 0.18 | 1.12 CPU after | 0.18 | 1.15 change | +0% | +3% This patch makes a much bigger difference for packs with a shorter slice of history (since its effect is seen at the boundaries of the pack) though it has some benefit even for larger packs.

2012-01-10attr: drop misguided defensive codingLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
In prepare_attr_stack, we pop the old elements of the stack (which were left from a previous lookup and may or may not be useful to us). Our loop to do so checks that we never reach the top of the stack. However, the code immediately afterwards will segfault if we did actually reach the top of the stack. Fortunately, this is not an actual bug, since we will never pop all of the stack elements (we will always keep the root gitattributes, as well as the builtin ones). So the extra check in the loop condition simply clutters the code and makes the intent less clear. Let's get rid of it.

2012-01-10attr: don't confuse prefixes with leading directoriesLibravatar Jeff King2-1/+12
When we prepare the attribute stack for a lookup on a path, we start with the cached stack from the previous lookup (because it is common to do several lookups in the same directory hierarchy). So the first thing we must do in preparing the stack is to pop any entries that point to directories we are no longer interested in. For example, if our stack contains gitattributes for: foo/bar/baz foo/bar foo but we want to do a lookup in "foo/bar/bleep", then we want to pop the top element, but retain the others. To do this we walk down the stack from the top, popping elements that do not match our lookup directory. However, the test do this simply checked strncmp, meaning we would mistake "foo/bar/baz" as a leading directory of "foo/bar/baz_plus". We must also check that the character after our match is '/', meaning we matched the whole path component. There are two special cases to consider: 1. The top of our attr stack has the empty path. So we must not check for '/', but rather special-case the empty path, which always matches. 2. Typically when matching paths in this way, you would also need to check for a full string match (i.e., the character after is '\0'). We don't need to do so in this case, though, because our path string is actually just the directory component of the path to a file (i.e., we know that it terminates with "/", because the filename comes after that).

But the configuration is meant to be the primary control and setting it to 'true' will enable it; the rr-cache directory will be created as necessary and the user does not have to create it.

But that function in merge-recursive exists to indent output based on the level of recursion and there is no similar justification for such a function in "notes merge".
