Jeff King 20b031fede packfile: add kept-pack cache for find_kept_pack_entry()
In a recent patch we added a function 'find_kept_pack_entry()' to look
for an object only among kept packs.

While this function avoids doing any lookup work in non-kept packs, it
is still linear in the number of packs, since we have to traverse the
linked list of packs once per object. Let's cache a reduced version of
that list to save us time.

Note that this cache will last the lifetime of the program. We could
invalidate it on reprepare_packed_git(), but there's not much point in
being rigorous here:

  - we might already fail to notice new .keep packs showing up after the
    program starts. We only reprepare_packed_git() when we fail to find
    an object. But adding a new pack won't cause that to happen.
    Somebody repacking could add a new pack and delete an old one, but
    most of the time we'd have a descriptor or mmap open to the old
    pack anyway, so we might not even notice.

  - in pack-objects we already cache the .keep state at startup, since
    56dfeb6263 (pack-objects: compute local/ignore_pack_keep early,
    2016-07-29). So this is just extending that concept further.

  - we don't have to worry about any packed_git being removed; we always
    keep the old structs around, even after reprepare_packed_git()

We do defensively invalidate the cache in case the set of kept packs
being asked for changes (e.g., only in-core kept packs were cached, but
suddenly the caller also wants on-disk kept packs, too). In theory we
could build all three caches and switch between them, but it's not
necessary, since this patch (and series) never changes the set of kept
packs that it wants to inspect from the cache.

So that "optimization" is more about being defensive in the face of
future changes than it is about asking for multiple kinds of kept packs
in this patch.

Here are p5303 results (as always, measured against the kernel):

  Test                                        HEAD^                   HEAD

and the --stdin-packs case, which scales a little bit better (although
not by that much even at 1,000 packs):

  5303.7: repack with --stdin-packs (1)       0.00(0.00+0.00)         0.00(0.00+0.00) =

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
