Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] midx: apply gitconfig to midx repack
Date: Sat, 09 May 2020 14:24:27 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.626.v3.git.1589034270.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.626.v2.git.1588758194.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Midx repack has largely been used in Microsoft Scalar on the client side to
optimize the repository multiple packs state. However when I tried to apply
this onto the server-side, I realized that there are certain features that
were lacking compare to git repack. Most of these features are highly
desirable on the server-side to create the most optimized pack possible.
One of the example is delta_base_offset, comparing an midx repack
with/without delta_base_offset, we can observe significant size differences.

Note that repack.writeBitmaps configuration is ignored, as the pack bitmap
facility is useful only with a single packfile.
Derrick Stolee's following patch will address repack.packKeptObjects
support.

## Commit message ##
- midx: apply gitconfig to midx repack
+ midx: teach "git multi-pack-index repack" honor "git repack" configurations
- Multi-Pack-Index repack is an incremental, repack solutions
- that allows user to consolidate multiple packfiles in a non-disruptive
- way. However the new packfile could be created without some of the
- capabilities of a packfile that is created by calling `git repack`.
+ Previously, when the "repack" subcommand of "git multi-pack-index" command
+ creates new packfile(s), it does not call the "git repack" command but
+ instead directly calls the "git pack-objects" command, and the
+ configuration variables meant for the "git repack" command, like
+ "repack.usedaeltabaseoffset", are ignored.
- This is because with `git repack`, there are configuration that would
- enable different flags to be passed down to `git pack-objects` plumbing.
+ This patch ensured "git multi-pack-index" checks the configuration
+ variables used by "git repack" and passes the corresponding options to
+ the underlying "git pack-objects" command.
- In this patch, I applies those flags into `git multi-pack-index repack`
- so that it respect the `repack.*` config series.
-
- Note:
- - `repack.packKeptObjects` will be addressed by Derrick Stolee in
- the following patch
- - `repack.writeBitmaps` when `--batch-size=0` was NOT adopted here as it
- requires `--all` to be passed onto `git pack-objects`, which is very
- slow. I think it would be nice to have this in a future patch.
+ Note that `repack.writeBitmaps` configuration is ignored, as the
+ pack bitmap facility is useful only with a single packfile.
