From e596acc23a8c92784349da613502626d758215b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Hostetler Date: Fri, 10 Feb 2017 16:10:39 +0100 Subject: preload-index: avoid lstat for skip-worktree items Teach preload-index to avoid lstat() calls for index-entries with skip-worktree bit set. This is a performance optimization. During a sparse-checkout, the skip-worktree bit is set on items that were not populated and therefore are not present in the worktree. The per-thread preload-index loop performs a series of tests on each index-entry as it attempts to compare the worktree version with the index and mark them up-to-date. This patch short-cuts that work. On a Windows 10 system with a very large repo (450MB index) and various levels of sparseness, performance was improved in the {preloadindex=true, fscache=false} case by 80% and in the {preloadindex=true, fscache=true} case by 20% for various commands.
