![]() When listing unique remote branches for 'git checkout's tracking DWIMery, __git_refs() runs the classic '... |sort |uniq -u' pattern to filter out duplicate remote branches. Let 'git for-each-ref' do the sorting, sparing the overhead of fork()+exec()ing 'sort' and a stage in the pipeline where potentially relatively large amount of data can be passed between two subsequent pipeline stages. This speeds up refs completion for 'git checkout' a bit when a lot of remote branches match the current word to be completed. Listing a single local and 100k remote branches, all packed, best of five: On Linux, before: $ time __git_complete_refs --track real 0m1.856s user 0m1.816s sys 0m0.060s After: real 0m1.550s user 0m1.512s sys 0m0.060s On Windows, before: real 0m3.128s user 0m2.155s sys 0m0.183s After: real 0m2.781s user 0m1.826s sys 0m0.136s Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> |

Contributed Software Although these pieces are available as part of the official git source tree, they are in somewhat different status. The intention is to keep interesting tools around git here, maybe even experimental ones, to give users an easier access to them, and to give tools wider exposure, so that they can be improved faster. I am not expecting to touch these myself that much. As far as my day-to-day operation is concerned, these subdirectories are owned by their respective primary authors. I am willing to help if users of these components and the contrib/ subtree "owners" have technical/design issues to resolve, but the initiative to fix and/or enhance things _must_ be on the side of the subtree owners. IOW, I won't be actively looking for bugs and rooms for enhancements in them as the git maintainer -- I may only do so just as one of the users when I want to scratch my own itch. If you have patches to things in contrib/ area, the patch should be first sent to the primary author, and then the primary author should ack and forward it to me (git pull request is nicer). This is the same way as how I have been treating gitk, and to a lesser degree various foreign SCM interfaces, so you know the drill. I expect that things that start their life in the contrib/ area to graduate out of contrib/ once they mature, either by becoming projects on their own, or moving to the toplevel directory. On the other hand, I expect I'll be proposing removal of disused and inactive ones from time to time. If you have new things to add to this area, please first propose it on the git mailing list, and after a list discussion proves there are some general interests (it does not have to be a list-wide consensus for a tool targeted to a relatively narrow audience -- for example I do not work with projects whose upstream is svn, so I have no use for git-svn myself, but it is of general interest for people who need to interoperate with SVN repositories in a way git-svn works better than git-svnimport), submit a patch to create a subdirectory of contrib/ and put your stuff there. -jc
