2020-08-24Documentation: deltaBaseCacheLimit is per-threadLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+1
Clarify that core.deltaBaseCacheLimit is per-thread, as can be seen from the fact that cache usage (base_cache_used in struct thread_local in builtin/index-pack.c) is tracked individually for each thread and compared against delta_base_cache_limit.

2020-01-23fsmonitor: update documentation for hook version and watchman hooksLibravatar Kevin Willford1-0/+11
A new config value for core.fsmonitorHookVersion was added to be able to force the version of the fsmonitor hook. Possible values are 1 or 2. When this is not set the code will use a value of -1 and attempt to use version 2 of the hook first and if that fails will attempt version 1.

2019-11-23mingw: restrict file handle inheritance only on Windows 7 and laterLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
Turns out that it don't work so well on Vista, see https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1742 for details. According to https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/?p=8873, it *should* work on Windows Vista and later. But apparently there are issues on Windows Vista when pipes are involved. Given that Windows Vista is past its end of life (official support ended on April 11th, 2017), let's not spend *too* much time on this issue and just disable the file handle inheritance restriction on any Windows version earlier than Windows 7.

2019-11-22sparse-checkout: add 'cone' modeLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-2/+8
The sparse-checkout feature can have quadratic performance as the number of patterns and number of entries in the index grow. If there are 1,000 patterns and 1,000,000 entries, this time can be very significant. Create a new Boolean config option, core.sparseCheckoutCone, to indicate that we expect the sparse-checkout file to contain a more limited set of patterns. This is a separate config setting from core.sparseCheckout to avoid breaking older clients by introducing a tri-state option. The config option does nothing right now, but will be expanded upon in a later commit. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-08-13repo-settings: create feature.manyFiles settingLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+3
The feature.manyFiles setting is suitable for repos with many files in the working directory. By setting index.version=4 and core.untrackedCache=true, commands such as 'git status' should improve. While adding this setting, modify the index version precedence tests to check how this setting overrides the default for index.version is unset.

2019-08-13commit-graph: turn on commit-graph by defaultLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+1
The commit-graph feature has seen a lot of activity in the past year or so since it was introduced. The feature is a critical performance enhancement for medium- to large-sized repos, and does not significantly hurt small repos. Change the defaults for core.commitGraph and gc.writeCommitGraph to true so users benefit from this feature by default. There are several places in the test suite where the environment variable GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH is disabled to avoid reading a commit-graph, if it exists. The config option overrides the environment, so swap these. Some GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH assignments remain, and those are to avoid writing a commit-graph when a new commit is created.

2019-01-29docs/config: clarify "text property" in core.eolLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
The word "property" is vague here. Let's spell out that we mean the path must be marked with the text attribute. While we're here, let's make the paragraph a little easier to read by de-emphasizing the "when core.autocrlf is false" bit. Putting it in the first sentence obscures the main content, and many readers won't care about autocrlf (i.e., anyone who is just following the gitattributes(7) advice, which mainly discusses "text" and "core.eol").
