Could you add a command and performance figures to the commit message
to show off the benefits of this patch?
From the description it's clear that it's a performance optimization,
but it's unclear whether it has a noticeable, or at least measurable
effect, or it's "only" a micro-optimization.
I tried something more substantial than a simple 'git status':
# without this patch
$ time perf record -g ./git log --oneline -m --name-only v2.20.0 >/dev/null
[ ... ]
real 2m4.320s
user 2m0.913s
sys 0m2.284s
$ perf report -g none |grep -E '(diffcore_rename|register_rename_src)'
52.40% 0.79% git git [.] diffcore_rename
0.01% 0.01% git git [.] register_rename_src
but it looks like that while more than half of the considerable
runtime is spent detecting renames, the time spent in
register_rename_src(), the function optimized in this patch, is
negligible.
