--add-header.

However, the parseopt machinery does not automatically pluralize
anything, so it is in fact called --no-add-header.

Since the option never worked, is not documented anywhere, and

Documentation: clarify "git clean -e <pattern>"

The current explanation of -e can be misread as allowing the user to say

    I know 'git clean -XYZ' (substitute -XYZ with any option and/or
    parameter) will remove paths A, B, and C, and I want them all removed
    except for paths matching this pattern by adding '-e C' to the same
    command line, i.e. 'git clean -e C -XYZ'.

But that is not what this option does. It augments the set of ignore rules
from the command line, just like the same "-e <pattern>" argument does
with the "ls-files" command (the user could probably pass "-e \!C" to tell
the command to clean everything the command would normally remove, except
for C). Also error out when both -x and -e are given with an explanation of
what -e means---it is a symptom of misunderstanding what -e does.

It also fixes small style nit in the parameter to add_exclude() call. The
current code only works because EXC_CMDL happens to be defined as 0.

clone: clone from a repository with relative alternates

Cloning from a local repository blindly copies or hardlinks all the files

 - If the repository cloned has an "objects/info/alternates" file, and the
   command line of clone specifies --reference, the ones specified on the
   command line get overwritten by the copy from the original repository.

 - An entry in a "objects/info/alternates" file can specify the object
   stores it borrows objects from as a path relative to the "objects/"
   directory. When cloning a repository with such an alternates file, if
   the new repository is not sitting next to the original repository, such
   relative paths needs to be adjusted so that they can be used in the new
   repository.

This updates add_to_alternates_file() to take the path to the alternate
object store, including the "/objects" part at the end (earlier, it was
taking the path to $GIT_DIR and was adding "/objects" itself), as it is

When branch detection is enabled each branch is named in git after their

each other to find their common base path. The current algorithm makes this
comparison on a character by character basis.
Assuming we have the following branches:

  //depot/branches/featureA
  //depot/branches/featureB

Then the base depot path would be //depot/branches/feature, which is an invalid
depot path.

The current patch fixes this by splitting the path into a list and comparing the
list entries, making it choose correctly //depot/branches as the base path.

13 years agofast-import: treat cat-blob as a delta base hint for next blob
Dmitry Ivankov [Sat, 20 Aug 2011 19:04:12 +0000 (01:04 +0600)]
fast-import: treat cat-blob as a delta base hint for next blob

Delta base for blobs is chosen as a previously saved blob. If we
treat cat-blob's blob as a delta base for the next blob, nothing
is likely to become worse.

For fast-import stream producer like svn-fe cat-blob is used like
following:
- svn-fe reads file delta in svn format
- to apply it, svn-fe asks cat-blob 'svn delta base'
- applies 'svn delta' to the response
- produces a blob command to store the result

Currently there is no way for svn-fe to give fast-import a hint on
object delta base. While what's requested in cat-blob is most of
the time a best delta base possible. Of course, it could be not a
good delta base, but we don't know any better one anyway.

So do treat cat-blob's result as a delta base for next blob. The
profit is nice: 2x to 7x reduction in pack size AND 1.2x to 3x
time speedup due to diff_delta being faster on good deltas. git gc
--aggressive can compress it even more, by 10% to 70%, utilizing
more cpu time, real time and 3 cpu cores.

Tested on 213M and 2.7G fast-import streams, resulting packs are 22M
and 113M, import time is 7s and 60s, both streams are produced by
svn-fe, sniffed and then used as raw input for fast-import.

For git-fast-export produced streams there is no change as it doesn't
use cat-blob and doesn't try to reorder blobs in some smart way to
make successive deltas small.

fast-import: count and report # of calls to diff_delta in stats

It's an interesting number, how often do we try to deltify each type of
objects and how often do we succeed. So do add it to stats.

Success doesn't mean much gain in pack size though. As we allow delta to
be as big as (data.len - 20). And delta close to data.len gains nothing
compared to no delta at all even after zlib compression (delta is pretty
much the same as data, just with few modifications).

We should try to make less attempts that result in huge deltas as these
consume more cpu than trivial small deltas. Either by choosing a better
delta base or reducing delta size upper bound or doing less delta attempts
at all.

Currently, delta base for blobs is a waste literally. Each blob delta
base is chosen as a previously stored blob. Disabling deltas for blobs
doesn't increase pack size and reduce import time, or at least doesn't
increase time for all fast-import streams I've tried.

combine-diff: support format_callback

This teaches combine-diff machinery to feed a combined merge to a callback
function when DIFF_FORMAT_CALLBACK is specified.

So far, format callback functions are not used for anything but 2-way
diffs. A callback is given a diff_queue_struct, which is an array of
diff_filepair. As its name suggests, a diff_filepair is a _pair_ of
diff_filespec that represents a single preimage and a single postimage.

Since "diff -c" is to compare N parents with a single merge result and
filter out any paths whose result match one (or more) of the parent(s),
its output has to be able to represent N preimages and 1 postimage. For
this reason, a callback function that inspects a diff_filepair that
results from this new infrastructure can and is expected to view the
preimage side (i.e. pair->one) as an array of diff_filespec. Each element
in the array, except for the last one, is marked with "has_more_entries"
bit, so that the same callback function can be used for 2-way diffs and
combined diffs.
