Junio C Hamano 9a8b6a0a9d pack-objects: update size heuristucs.
We used to omit delta base candidates that is much bigger than
the target, but delta size does not grow when we delete more, so
that was not a very good heuristics.

Nicolas Pitre f6c7081aa9 use delta index data when finding best delta matches
This patch allows for computing the delta index for each base object
only once and reuse it when trying to find the best delta match.

This should set the mark and pave the way for possibly better delta
generator algorithms.

Junio C Hamano f527cb8c38 pack-objects: do not stop at object that is "too small"
Because we sort the delta window by name-hash and then size,
hitting an object that is too small to consider as a delta base
for the current object does not mean we do not have better
candidate in the window beyond it.

Noticed by Shawn Pearce, analyzed by Nico, Linus and me.

Junio C Hamano 5379a5c5ee Thin pack generation: optimization.
Jens Axboe noticed that recent "git push" has become very slow
since we made --thin transfer the default.

Thin pack generation to push a handful revisions that touch
relatively small number of paths out of huge tree was stupid; it
registered _everything_ from the excluded revisions.  As a
result, "Counting objects" phase was unnecessarily expensive.

This changes the logic to register the blobs and trees from
excluded revisions only for paths we are actually going to send
to the other end.

This is the "letter of the law" version of using fgets() properly in the
face of incredibly broken stdio implementations.  We can work around the
Solaris breakage with SA_RESTART, but in case anybody else is ever that
stupid, here's the "safe" (read: "insanely anal") way to use fgets.

Junio C Hamano b76f6b6278 pack-objects: allow "thin" packs to exceed depth limits
When creating a new pack to be used in .git/objects/pack/
directory, we carefully count the depth of deltified objects to
be reused, so that the generated pack does not to exceed the
specified depth limit for runtime efficiency.  However, when we
are generating a thin pack that does not contain base objects,
such a pack can only be used during network transfer that is
expanded on the other end upon reception, so being careful and
artificially cutting the delta chain does not buy us anything
except increased bandwidth requirement.  This patch disables the
delta chain depth limit check when reusing an existing delta.

Since we sort objects by type, hash, preferredness and then
size, after we have a delta against preferred base, there is no
point trying a delta with non-preferred base.  This seems to
save expensive calls to diff-delta and it also seems to save the
output space as well.

introduced by this series.  This may become necessary if
repeated repacking makes delta chain too long.  With this, the

It still allows reusing non-deltified representations; there is

It also adds a couple more statistics output, while squelching
it under -q flag, which the last round forgot to do.

There is one remaining issue when --no-reuse-delta option is not
used.  It can create delta chains that are deeper than specified.

    A<--B<--C<--D   E   F   G

Suppose we have a delta chain A to D (A is stored in full either
in a pack or as a loose object. B is depth1 delta relative to A,
C is depth2 delta relative to B...) with loose objects E, F, G.
And we are going to pack all of them.

B, C and D are left as delta against A, B and C respectively.
So A, E, F, and G are examined for deltification, and let's say
we decided to keep E expanded, and store the rest as deltas like
this:

    E<--F<--G<--A

Oops.  We ended up making D a bit too deep, didn't we?  B, C and
D form a chain on top of A!

This is because we did not know what the final depth of A would
be, when we checked objects and decided to keep the existing
delta.  Unfortunately, deferring the decision until just before
the deltification is not an option.  To be able to make B, C,
and D candidates for deltification with the rest, we need to
know the type and final unexpanded size of them, but the major
part of the optimization comes from the fact that we do not read
the delta data to do so -- getting the final size is quite an
expensive operation.

To prevent this from happening, we should keep A from being
deltified.  But how would we tell that, cheaply?

To do this most precisely, after check_object() runs, each
object that is used as the base object of some existing delta
needs to be marked with the maximum depth of the objects we
decided to keep deltified (in this case, D is depth 3 relative
to A, so if no other delta chain that is longer than 3 based on
A exists, mark A with 3).  Then when attempting to deltify A, we
would take that number into account to see if the final delta
chain that leads to D becomes too deep.

However, this is a bit cumbersome to compute, so we would cheat
and reduce the maximum depth for A arbitrarily to depth/4 in
this implementation.

This goes together with "rev-list --object-edge" change, to feed
pack-objects list of edge commits in addition to the usual

usual "self contained delta" constraints, and can produce delta

The resulting packfile is not usable in .git/object/packs, but

Linus Torvalds ef07618fdd git-repack: Properly abort in corrupt repository
In a corrupt repository, git-repack produces a pack that does not
contain needed objects without complaining, and the result of this
combined with -d flag can be very painful -- e.g. a lossage of one
tree object can lead to lossage of blobs reachable only through that
tree.

Junio C Hamano f3123c4ab3 pack-objects: Allow use of pre-generated pack.
git-pack-objects can reuse pack files stored in $GIT_DIR/pack-cache
directory, when a necessary pack is found.  This is hopefully useful
when upload-pack (called from git-daemon) is expected to receive
requests for the same set of objects many times (e.g full cloning
request of any project, or updates from the set of heads previous day
to the latest for a slow moving project).

Currently git-pack-objects does *not* keep pack files it creates for
reusing.  It might be useful to add --update-cache option to it,
which would allow it store pack files it created in the pack-cache
directory, and prune rarely used ones from it.

This adds the "--local" flag to git-pack-objects, which acts like
"--incremental", except that instead of ignoring all packed objects, it
only ignores objects that are packed and in an alternate object tree.

As a result, it effectively only does a local re-pack: any remote-packed
objects will stay in the alternate object directories.

Junio C Hamano 84c8d8aec5 Fix packname hash generation.
This changes the generation of hash packfiles have in their names, from
"hash of object names as fed to us" to "hash of object names in the
resulting pack, in the order they appear in the index file".  The new
"git-index-pack" command is taught to output the computed hash value
to its standard output.

With this, we can store downloaded pack in a temporary file without
knowing its final name, run git-index-pack to generate idx for it
while finding out its final name, and then rename the pack and idx to
their final names.

Linus Torvalds e18088451d csum-file interface updates: return resulting SHA1
Also, make the writing of the SHA1 as a end-header be conditional: not
every user will necessarily want to write the SHA1 to the file itself,
even though current users do (but we migh end up using the same helper
functions for the object files themselves, that don't do this).

This also makes the packed index file contain the SHA1 of the packed
data file at the end (just before its own SHA1).  That way you can
validate the pairing of the two if you want to.

Linus Torvalds c38138cd78 git-pack-objects: write the pack files with a SHA1 csum
We want to be able to check their integrity later, and putting the

routines are generic, so we could try to re-use them for the index file,

of the index.

Linus Torvalds 521a4f4cf4 git-pack-objects: do the delta search in reverse size order
Starting from big objects and going backwards means that we end up
picking a delta that goes from a bigger object to a smaller one.  That's
advantageous for two reasons: the bigger object is likely the newer one
(since things tend to grow, rather than shrink), and doing a delete
tends to be smaller than doing an add.

So the deltas don't tend to be top-of-tree, and the packed end result is
just slightly smaller.

 - Add a script to test the very basics.

 - Implement unpacker for both regular and deltified objects.

Linus Torvalds f846bbff15 git-pack-objects: make "--window=x" semantics more logical.
A zero disables delta generation (like before), but we make the window
be one bigger than specified, since we use one entry for the one to be
tested (it used to be that "--window=1" was meaningless, since we'd have
used up the single-entry window with the entry to be tested, and had no
chance of actually ever finding a delta).

The default window remains at 10, but now it really means "test the 10
closest objects", not "test the 9 closest objects".

Linus Torvalds 75c42d8cc3 Add a "max_size" parameter to diff_delta()

Linus Torvalds c323ac7d9c git-pack-objects: create a packed object representation.
This is kind of like a tar-ball for a set of objects, ready to be
shipped off to another end.  Alternatively, you could use is as a packed
representation of the object database directly, if you changed
"read_sha1_file()" to read these kinds of packs.

The latter is partiularly useful to generate a "packed history", ie you
could pack up your old history efficiently, but still have it available
(at a performance hit, of course).

I haven't actually written an unpacker yet, so the end result has not
been verified in any way yet.  I obviously always write bug-free code,
so it just has to work, no?
