Something to play with so we can evaluate which is the best strategy
for non-full clone (or whatever you call it).
The idea is the same: pack only enough to access a subtree, rewrite
commits at client side, rewrite again when pushing. However I put
git-replace into the mix, so at least commit SHA-1 looks as same as from
upstream. git-subtree is not needed (although it's still an option)
With this, I can clone Documentaion/ from git.git, update and push. I
haven't tested it further. Space consumption is 24MB (58MB for full
repo). Not really impressive, but if one truely cares about disk
space, he/she should also use shallow clone.
Performance is impacted, due to bulk commit replacement. There is a
split second delay for every command. It's the price of replacing 24k
commits every time. I think the delay could be improved a little bit
(caching or mmap..)
Rewriting commits at clone takes time too. Doing individual object
writing takes lots of space and time. I put all new objects directly
to a pack now. Rewriting time now becomes quite acceptable (a few
seconds). Although deep subtree/repo may take longer. Rewriting on
demand can be considered in such cases.
Repo-care commands like fsck, repack, gc are left out for now.
Finally, it's more of a hack just to see how far I can go. It will
break things.
Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (16):
Add core.subtree
list-objects: limit traversing within the given subtree if
core.subtree is set
parse_object: keep sha1 even when parsing replaced one
Allow to invalidate a commit in in-memory object store
Hook up replace-object to allow bulk commit replacement
upload-pack: use a separate variable to control whether internal
rev-list is used
upload-pack: support subtree pack
fetch-pack: support --subtree
subtree: rewrite incoming commits
clone: support subtree clone with parameter --subtree
pack-objects: add --subtree (for pushing)
subtree: rewriting outgoing commits
Update commit_tree() interface to take base tree too
commit_tree(): rewriting/replacing new commits
commit: rewrite outgoing commits
do not use thin packs and subtree together (just a bad feeling about
this)
