We should probably leave this as a pointer to an off_t, since that is a
more appropriate type for keeping track of an offset within a file (and
indeed it is the return type of hashfile_total()).
But since it's platform-dependent, we should make sure to cast it to a
uint64_t before writing it as part of the lookup table.

This makes sense to store here, since we can't easily recover this
information later on.

This one I'm not as sure about. It would be nice to not have
write_selected_commits_v1() be responsible for writing this down, too.
And I think it's easy enough to recover later on, since we're just doing
a search over "index" (see above the "oid_pos" call).
I think that oid_pos() call could be hidden behind a function that takes
an object_id pointer, an index (double pointer) of pack_idx_entry
structs, and a length.
Its implementation would be something like:
static int commit_bitmap_writer_pos(struct object_id *oid,
struct pack_idx_entry **index,
uint32_t index_nr)
{
return oid_pos(oid, index, index_nr, oid_access);
}
and then we could replace any calls like commit_positions[i] with one
that first takes `i` to the appropriate object_id in selected commit
order.
That would be strictly less efficient, but not in a way that I think
matters, and it would definitely be cleaner to not rely on a side-effect
of write_selected_commits_v1().
Something in the middle there would be to have write_lookup_table()
assemble that list of commit_positions itself, something like:
uint32_t *commit_positions;
ALLOC_ARRAY(commit_positions, writer.selected_nr);
for (i = 0; i < writer.selected_nr; i++) {
int pos = oid_pos(&writer.selected[i].commit->object.oid,
index, index_nr);
if (pos < 0)
BUG("trying to write commit not in index");
commit_positions[i] = pos;
}
...
free(commit_positions);
That at least removes a side-effect from the implementation of
write_selected_commits_v1() and brings the creation of the
commit_positions array closer to where it's being used, while still
maintaining the constant-time lookups. So that may be a good
alternative, but I'm curious of your thoughts.
> +static int table_cmp(const void *_va, const void *_vb, void *commit_positions)
OK, so this is sorting the table in order of the commit positions. I
would rename the commit_positions parameter to something like "void
*_data", and then have commit_positions be the result of the cast, like
"uint32_t *commit_positions = _data";
> +{
> + int8_t result = 0;
int8_t isn't an often used type in Git's codebase, but we can get rid of
this variable altogether and just return immediately from each case,
e.g.:
if (a < b)
return -1;
else if (a > b)
return 1;
return 0;
or similar.
> + uint32_t *positions = (uint32_t *) commit_positions;
Explicit cast isn't need here since you're going up from void*.

I think the construction of table and table_inv could definitely benefit
from a comment here indicating what they're used for and what they
contain (e.g., "table maps abc to xyz").

Nit: missing space before ':'.
