Subject: [PATCH 0/4] reset/checkout: fix miscellaneous sparse index bugs
Date: Thu, 04 Aug 2022 20:46:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1312.git.1659645967.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
While working on sparse index integration for 'git rm' [1], Shaoxuan found
that removed sparse directories, when reset, would no longer be sparse. This
was due to how 'unpack_trees()' determined whether a traversed directory was
a sparse directory or not; it would only unpack an entry as a sparse
directory if it existed in the index. However, if the sparse directory was
removed, it would be treated like a non-sparse directory and its contents
would be individually unpacked.
To avoid this unnecessary traversal and keep the results of 'reset' as
sparse as possible, the decision logic for whether a directory is sparse is
changed to:
* If the directory is a sparse directory in the index, unpack it.
* If not, is the directory inside the sparse cone? If so, do not unpack it.
* If the directory is outside the sparse cone, does it have any child
entries in the index? If so, do not unpack it.
* Otherwise, unpack the entry as a sparse directory.
In the process of updating 'reset', a separate issue was found in 'checkout'
where collapsed sparse directories did not have modified contents reported
file-by-file. A similar bug was found with 'status' in 2c521b0e49 (status:
fix nested sparse directory diff in sparse index, 2022-03-01), and
'checkout' was corrected the same way (setting the diff flag 'recursive' to
1).
Thanks!
* Victoria
