The old method was avoiding re-loading of packfiles by watching the mtime of the
pack directory. This causes the ODB to become stale if the directory and packfile
are written within the same clock millisecond, as when cloning a fairly small
repo.
This method tries to find the object in the cached packs, and forces a refresh when
that fails. This will cause extra stat'ing on a miss, but speeds up the success
case and avoids this race condition.
last_found is the last packfile a wanted object was found in. Since
last_found is shared among all searching threads, it might changes while
we're searching. As suggested by @arrbee, put a copy on the stack to fix
the race condition.
Defining the BOM as a string makes the array include the
NUL-terminator, which means that the memcpy is going to check for that
as well and thus never match for a nonempty file.
Define the array as three chars, which makes the size correct.
Wondows has its own HTTP library. Use that one when possible instead of
our own.
As we don't depend on them anymore, remove the http-parser library from
the Windows build, as well as the search for OpenSSL.
There is a bug in building the linked list of line records in the
diff iterator and also an off by one element error in the hunk
counts. This fixes both of these, adds some test data with more
complex sets of hunk and line diffs to exercise this code better.
This reduces the rate of syscalls for the common case of sequences of
object reads from the same pack.
Best of 5 timings for libgit2_clar before this patch:
real 0m5.375s
user 0m0.392s
sys 0m3.564s
After applying this patch:
real 0m5.285s
user 0m0.356s
sys 0m3.544s
0.6% improvement in system time.
9.2% improvement in user time.
1.7% improvement in elapsed time.
Confirmed a 0.6% reduction in number of system calls with strace.
Expect greater improvement for graph-traversal with large packs.
Fixed some minor `git_repository_hashfile` issues:
- Fixed incorrect doc (saying that repo could be NULL)
- Added checking of object type value to acceptable ones
- Added more tests for various parameter permutations
The existing `git_odb_hashfile` does not apply text filtering
rules because it doesn't have a repository context to evaluate
the correct rules to apply. This adds a new hashfile function
that will apply repository-specific filters (based on config,
attributes, and filename) before calculating the hash.
In the process of adding tests for the max file size threshold
(which treats files over a certain size as binary) there seem to
be a number of problems in the new code with detecting binaries.
This should fix those up, as well as add a test for the file
size threshold stuff.
Also, this un-deprecates `GIT_DIFF_LINE_ADD_EOFNL`, since I
finally found a legitimate situation where it would be returned.
