bloom.c: introduce core Bloom filter constructs Introduce the constructs for Bloom filters, Bloom filter keys and Bloom filter settings. For details on what Bloom filters are and how they work, refer to Dr. Derrick Stolee's blog post [1]. It provides a concise explanation of the adoption of Bloom filters as described in [2] and [3]. Implementation specifics: 1. We currently use 7 and 10 for the number of hashes and the size of each entry respectively. They served as great starting values, the mathematical details behind this choice are described in [1] and [4]. The implementation, while not completely open to it at the moment, is flexible enough to allow for tweaking these settings in the future. Note: The performance gains we have observed with these values are significant enough that we did not need to tweak these settings. The performance numbers are included in the cover letter of this series and in the commit message of the subsequent commit where we use Bloom filters to speed up `git log -- path`. 2. As described in [1] and [3], we do not need 7 independent hashing functions. We use the Murmur3 hashing scheme, seed it twice and then combine those to procure an arbitrary number of hash values. 3. The filters will be sized according to the number of changes in each commit, in multiples of 8 bit words.

revision.c: use Bloom filters to speed up path based revision walks Revision walk will now use Bloom filters for commits to speed up revision walks for a particular path (for computing history for that path), if they are present in the commit-graph file. We load the Bloom filters during the prepare_revision_walk step, currently only when dealing with a single pathspec. Extending it to work with multiple pathspecs can be explored and built on top of this series in the future. While comparing trees in rev_compare_trees(), if the Bloom filter says that the file is not different between the two trees, we don't need to compute the expensive diff. This is where we get our performance gains. The other response of the Bloom filter is '`:maybe', in which case we fall back to the full diff calculation to determine if the path was changed in the commit. We do not try to use Bloom filters when the '--walk-reflogs' option is specified. The '--walk-reflogs' option does not walk the commit ancestry chain like the rest of the options. Incorporating the performance gains when walking reflog entries would add more complexity, and can be explored in a later series. Performance Gains: We tested the performance of `git log -- <path>` on the git repo, the linux and some internal large repos, with a variety of paths of varying depths. On the git and linux repos: - we observed a 2x to 5x speed up. On a large internal repo with files seated 6-10 levels deep in the tree: - we observed 10x to 20x speed ups, with some paths going up to 28 times faster.
