19 years agogit-rev-list: add "--dense" flag
Linus Torvalds [Fri, 21 Oct 2005 23:40:54 +0000 (16:40 -0700)] 
git-rev-list: add "--dense" flag

This is what the recent git-rev-list changes have all been gearing up for.

When we use a path filter to git-rev-list, the new "--dense" flag asks
git-rev-list to compress the history so that it _only_ contains commits
that change files in the path filter.  It also rewrites the parent
information so that tools like "gitk" will see the result as a dense
history tree.

For example, on the current kernel archive:

[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list HEAD | wc -l
9904
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list HEAD -- kernel | wc -l
5442
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list --dense HEAD -- kernel | wc -l
356

which shows that while we have almost ten thousand commits, we can prune
down the work to slightly more than half by only following the merges
that are interesting. But further, we can then compress the history to
just 356 entries that actually make changes to the kernel subdirectory.

To see this in action, try something like

gitk --dense -- gitk

to see just the history that affects gitk.  Or, to show that true
parallel development still remains parallel, do

gitk --dense -- daemon.c

which shows some parallel commits in the current git tree.

19 years agoTeach git-rev-list to follow just a specified set of files
Linus Torvalds [Fri, 21 Oct 2005 04:25:09 +0000 (21:25 -0700)] 
Teach git-rev-list to follow just a specified set of files

This is the first cut at a git-rev-list that knows to ignore commits that
don't change a certain file (or set of files).

NOTE! For now it only prunes _merge_ commits, and follows the parent where
there are no differences in the set of files specified. In the long run,
I'd like to make it re-write the straight-line history too, but for now
the merge simplification is much more fundamentally important (the
rewriting of straight-line history is largely a separate simplification
phase, but the merge simplification needs to happen early if we want to
optimize away unnecessary commit parsing).

If all parents of a merge change some of the files, the merge is left as
is, so the end result is in no way guaranteed to be a linear history, but
it will often be a lot /more/ linear than the full tree, since it prunes
out parents that didn't matter for that set of files.

As an example from the current kernel:

[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list HEAD | wc -l
9885
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list HEAD -- Makefile | wc -l
4084
[torvalds@g5 linux]$ git-rev-list HEAD -- drivers/usb | wc -l
5206

and you can also use 'gitk' to more visually see the pruning of the
history tree, with something like

gitk -- drivers/usb

showing a simplified history that tries to follow the first parent in a
merge that is the parent that fully defines drivers/usb/.

Split up tree diff functions into tree-diff.c library

This makes the tree diff functionality independent of the "git-diff-tree"
program, by splitting the core functionality up into a library file.

This will be needed for when we teach git-rev-list to only follow a
specified set of pathnames, rather than the global revision history.

Most of it is a fairly straightforward code move, but it also involves
some calling convention cleanup, and moving some of the static variables
from diff-tree.c into the options structure.

The actual tree change callback routines also become paramterized by the
diff_options structure, allowing the library functionality to do something
else than just show the diff on stdout.

Right now the only user of this functionality remains git-diff-tree
itself.

Optimize common case of git-rev-list

I took a look at webgit, and it looks like at least for the "projects"
page, the most common operation ends up being basically

git-rev-list --header --parents --max-count=1 HEAD

Now, the thing is, the way "git-rev-list" works, it always keeps on
popping the parents and parsing them in order to build the list of
parents, and it turns out that even though we just want a single commit,
git-rev-list will invariably look up _three_ generations of commits.

It will parse:
 - the commit we want (it obviously needs this)
 - it's parent(s) as part of the "pop_most_recent_commit()" logic
 - it will then pop one of the parents before it notices that it doesn't
   need any more
 - and as part of popping the parent, it will parse the grandparent (again
   due to "pop_most_recent_commit()".

Now, I've strace'd it, and it really is pretty efficient on the whole, but
if things aren't nicely cached, and with long-latency IO, doing those two
extra objects (at a minimum - if the parent is a merge it will be more) is
just wasted time, and potentially a lot of it.

So here's a quick special-case for the trivial case of "just one commit,
and no date-limits or other special rules".

redundant test for pathname absoluteness (belts and suspenders.)

19 years agogit-fetch-pack: avoid unnecessary zero packing
Linus Torvalds [Tue, 18 Oct 2005 18:35:17 +0000 (11:35 -0700)] 
git-fetch-pack: avoid unnecessary zero packing

If everything is up-to-date locally, we don't need to even ask for a
pack-file from the remote, or try to unpack it.

This is especially important for tags - since the pack-file common commit
logic is based purely on the commit history, it will never be able to find
a common tag, and will thus always end up re-fetching them.

Especially notably, if the tag points to a non-commit (eg a tagged tree),
the pack-file would be unnecessarily big, just because it cannot any most
recent common point between commits for pruning.

Short-circuiting the case where we already have that reference means that
we avoid a lot of these in the common case.

NOTE! This only matches remote ref names against the same local name,
which works well for tags, but is not as generic as it could be. If we
ever need to, we could match against _any_ local ref (if we have it, we
have it), but this "match against same name" is simpler and more
efficient, and covers the common case.

Renaming of refs is common for branch heads, but since those are always
commits, the pack-file generation can optimize that case.

In some cases we might still end up fetching pack-files unnecessarily, but
this at least avoids the re-fetching of tags over and over if you use a
regular

git fetch --tags ...

which was the main reason behind the change.

19 years agoformat-patch: take sequence of ranges.
Junio C Hamano [Fri, 14 Oct 2005 06:18:46 +0000 (23:18 -0700)] 
format-patch: take sequence of ranges.

This enhances set of revs you can give format-patch.

Originally, format-patch took either one rev, or two revs:

    format-patch rev1
    format-patch rev1 rev2

The first format was a short-hand for "format-patch rev1 HEAD"
(i.e. rev2==HEAD).  What this meant was to find commits that are
in branch rev2 that has not been merged to branch rev1.

The above notation is still supported, but now it takes sequence
of "from1..to1 from2..to2 ...".  In short, the second format has
become a short-hand for "format-patch rev1..rev2".  Commits in
to1 but not in from1, to2 but not in from2, ... are formatted as
emailable patches.

With this, cherry-picking from other branch can be written as:

    git-format-patch -k --stdout master..branch1 master..branch2 |
    git-am -k -3

which is generally faster than traditional cherry-pick (which
always did 3-way merge) if patches apply cleanly, and still
falls back on 3-way merge if some of them do not.

Eventually, it might end up skipping any objects that aren't local to
