Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know
them.
