It needs all untracked files reported individually, but would rather not have all individual ignored files under explicitly ignored directories reported. Directories that match an ignore pattern should be reported, instead of all contained files. It is not possible to get this output with the current arguments available to git status. You can get ignored files (--ignored), all untracked files (--untracked-files=all), but if you specify both options then you will also get all individual ignored files. This change is to add the option to have git status report all untracked files while also reporting directories that match an ignore pattern. The logic in dir.c was also modified to not iterate over all files in an ignored directory. This change resulted in a performance improvement in work directories with a large number of files contained in ignored directories. For example, this setup is present when bin and obj directories are contained in the repository work dir.

The git status command exposes the options to report ignored and/or untracked files. However, when reporting all untracked files (--untracked-files=all), all individual ignored files are reported as well. It is not currently possible to get the reporting behavior of the --ignored flag, while also reporting all untracked files. This change exposes a flag to report all untracked files while not showing individual files in ignored directories. Motivation: Our application (Visual Studio) needs all untracked files listed individually, but does not need all ignored files listed individually. Reporting all ignored files can affect the time it takes for status to run. For a representative repository, here are some measurements showing a large perf improvement for this scenario: | Command | Reported ignored entries | Time (s) | | ------- | ------------------------ | -------- | | 1 | 0 | 1.3 | | 2 | 1024 | 4.2 | | 3 | 174904 | 7.5 | | 4 | 1046 | 1.6 | Commands: 1) status 2) status --ignored 3) status --ignored --untracked-files=all 4) status --ignored --untracked-files=all --show-ignored-directory This changes exposes a --show-ignored-directory flag to the git status command. This flag is utilized when running git status with the --ignored and --untracked-files options to not list ignored individual ignored files contained in directories that match an ignore pattern. Part of the perf improvement comes from the tweak to read_directory_recursive to stop scanning the file system after it encounters the first file. When a directory is ignored, all it needs to determine is if the directory is empty or not. The logic currently keeps scanning the file system until it finds an untracked file. However, as the directory is ignored, all the contained contents are also marked excluded. For ignored directories that contain a large number of files, this can take some time.

If would be nice to be able to make the ignored output independent of the untracked settings. This patch attempts to do that while maintaining backward compatibility with the existing behavior. When "--ignored" is used by itself ("--untracked-files=normal"), ignored directories (both directories that explicitly match a directory ignore pattern -and- directories containing only ignored files) are listed. Individual files within are *not* listed. When "--ignored" is used with "--untracked-files=all", git always lists the individual files within the ignored directories and DOES NOT collapse the output to just the containing (explicitly or implicitly ignored) directory. This can cause a massive performance problem when there are a lot of ignored files in a well-defined set of ignored directories. For example, on Windows, Visual Studio creates a bin/ and obj/ directory inside your project where it writes all .obj files. Normal usage is to explicitly ignore those 2 directory names in your .gitignores (rather than or in addition to *.obj). We just want to see the "bin/" and "obj/" paths regardless of which "--untracked" flag is passed in. We want to see the paths that explicitly match an ignore pattern. This means that if a directory only contains ignored files, but the directory itself is not explicitly ignored, then we want to see the individual files. This is slightly different than the current behavior of "--ignored".

Another option I had considered is to let the "--ignored" flag take an argument.

(The timing improvement from 2 to 4 is huge though). (2) is --untracked-files=normal. Although the count of ignored files similar between 2 and 4, I consider this flag more of a tweak on 3, as we want the untracked files reported with the "--untracked=all" flag. The counts between 2 and 4 are similar in this case because most of the ignored files are contained in ignored directories. Our application calls status including the following flags: --porcelain=v2 --ignored --untracked-files=all --ignore-submodules=none This means we have bad performance compared to just "git status" when there is a large number of files in ignored directories With this new behavior, our application would move from case 3 to case 4 for this repository. You also point out the timing difference between case 2 and 4. I think there is an optimization we can make when running "git status --ignored" logic that will improve the the timing here. Currently, the logic in dir.c is iterating over all files contained in an ignored directory to see if it is empty or not. This is not necessary - we should be able to stop after finding any file. I plan to follow up on this in a different patch. >> This changes exposes a --show-ignored-directory flag to the git status > s/changes/change/ > >> command.

It is possible to have tracked files in an ignored directory. The behavior with this patch is to show individual files in the ignored directory. This patch includes a test covering this scenario. I think this behavior is reasonable for this case - I am interested if there are other opinions on this. > > What happens to empty directories that match an ignore pattern? > The "git status" command would not show empty directories.

So after rereading this, maybe we could have '--ignored[=as-untracked, new-mode]' with as-untracked as default? This would satisfy your goal, while still maintaining backwards compatibility. > We want to see the paths that explicitly match an ignore pattern. > This means that if a directory only contains ignored files, but the > directory itself is not explicitly ignored, then we want to see the > individual files.

I would strongly favor not introducing yet another flag to tweak the behavior of another command line option. (The UX of Git is already bloated, IMHO. But that is just my general stance on things) So we'd have two proposals: (1) The current patch proposes --show-ignored-directory that modifies the behavior of other flags (2) extend an already existing option to take another mode (which I propose) Strong arguments for (1) would be if the flag is orthogonal and apply to the other flags in a uniform way, i.e.: status --no-ignored --untracked=no --show-ignored-directory would make sense and produce an output that a user doesn't find confusing. Arguments for (2), are * less documentation for users (see below) * if the two flags are truly orthogonal, test effort is decreased * no exposure of an API that may yield strange results when the user gives strange input. >>> This >>> change exposes a flag to report all untracked files while not showing >>> individual files in ignored directories. >> >> By the description up to here, it sounds as if you want to introduce >> mode for --untracked, e.g. "normal-adjusted-for-ignored" (it's a bad >> suggestion)?

I would think that is a better solution, as then untracked and ignored files (and their parameters) will be orthogonal in the long run. Things like --untracked=all --ignored=none --untracked=none --ignored=only-dirs --untracked=reasonable-default --ignored=other-reasonable-default will be possible and eventually the default for ignored files may be independent of untracked settings. > Then, we could express this new behavior through (for example) a > "--ignored=exact" flag to reflect the fact that this new option > returns paths that match the ignore pattern, and does not > collapse directories that contain only ignored files. Yes, and we would not need to worry about how the new flag interacts with other flags. I would prefer that solution as it seems the API will be cleaner that way. Less things depend on each other, e.g. as a user I do not need to know about the 'other' flag, be it ignored or untracked to solve my problem. If we'd go with this third flag, we'd need to (a) document it, but (b) also have to add a sentence to untracked and ignored flag "In the corner case of also having the third flag, we change behavior once again" which I'd dislike from a users perspective. >>> Commands: >>> 1) status >>> 2) status --ignored >>> 3) status --ignored --untracked-files=all >>> 4) status --ignored --untracked-files=all --show-ignored-directory >>> (2) is --untracked-files=normal I'd presume, such that this flag >>> can be understood as a tweak to "normal" based on the similar size >>> between 2 and 4?

This flag only has meaning when --ignored and --untracked=all are specified. I am open to other suggestions on how to express this. Another option might be to modify the "--ignored" flag to take an argument, which would allow more explicit control over how ignored paths are reported. This way, we could specify (for example) "--ignored=explicit" to control the output of ignored paths. >> Part of the perf improvement comes from the tweak to >> read_directory_recursive to stop scanning the file system after it >> encounters the first file.

This patch will address #1, and I will follow up with another patch for #2. This patch improves the performance of 'git status --ignored' by cutting out unnecessary work when determining if an ignored directory is empty or not. The current logic will recursively enumerate through all contents of an ignored directory to determine whether it is empty or not. The new logic will return after the 1st file is encountered. This can result in a significant speedup in work dirs with a lot of files in ignored directories. As an example of the performance improvement, here is a representative example of a repository with ~190,000 files in ~400 ignored directories: | Command | Time (s) | | -------------------------- | -------- | | git status | 1.2 | | git status --ignored (old) | 3.9 | | git status --ignored (new) | 1.4 | Jameson Miller (1): Improve performance of git status --ignored dir.c | 47 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 41 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
