2017-11-10fsmonitor: store fsmonitor bitmap before splitting indexLibravatar Alex Vandiver1-8/+12
ba1b9cac ("fsmonitor: delay updating state until after split index is merged", 2017-10-27) resolved the problem of the fsmonitor data being applied to the non-base index when reading; however, a similar problem exists when writing the index. Specifically, writing of the fsmonitor extension happens only after the work to split the index has been applied -- as such, the information in the index is only for the non-"base" index, and thus the extension information contains only partial data. When saving, compute the ewah bitmap before the index is split, and store it in the fsmonitor_dirty field, mirroring the behavior that occurred during reading. fsmonitor_dirty is kept from being leaked by being freed when the extension data is written -- which always happens precisely once, no matter the split index configuration.

2017-11-01fsmonitor: delay updating state until after split index is mergedLibravatar Alex Vandiver1-16/+24
If the fsmonitor extension is used in conjunction with the split index extension, the set of entries in the index when it is first loaded is only a subset of the real index. This leads to only the non-"base" index being marked as CE_FSMONITOR_VALID. Delay the expansion of the ewah bitmap until after tweak_split_index has been called to merge in the base index as well. The new fsmonitor_dirty is kept from being leaked by dint of being cleaned up in post_read_index_from, which is guaranteed to be called after do_read_index in read_index_from.

2017-10-30fsmonitor: set the PWD to the top of the working treeLibravatar Alex Vandiver1-0/+1
The fsmonitor command inherits the PWD of its caller, which may be anywhere in the working copy. This makes is difficult for the fsmonitor command to operate on the whole repository. Specifically, for the watchman integration, this causes each subdirectory to get its own watch entry. Set the CWD to the top of the working directory, for consistency.

detecting new or changed files. When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache directories. We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(), ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat() files to detect potential changes for those entries marked CE_FSMONITOR_VALID. In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been identified as having potential changes. To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations; when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk, it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit. Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked invalid.
