I'm waiting so long for main patch to be at least queued to pu, that I'm now a bit frustrated and ready to do something not related to main goal :) (they say every joke contains part of a joke). Here is something from sleepy me: ---- 8< ---- From: Kirill Smelkov <k...@nexedi.com> Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 22:18:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] pack-objects: Teach --use-bitmap-index codepath to respect --local, --honor-pack-keep and --incremental Since 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) there are two codepaths in pack-objects: with & without using bitmap reachability index. However add_object_entry_from_bitmap(), despite its non-bitmapped counterpart add_object_entry(), in no way does check for whether --local or --honor-pack-keep or --incremental should be respected. In non-bitmapped codepath this is handled in want_object_in_pack(), but bitmapped codepath has simply no such checking at all. The bitmapped codepath however was allowing to pass in all those options and with bitmap indices still being used under such conditions - potentially giving wrong output (e.g. including objects from non-local or .keep'ed pack). We can easily fix this by noting the following: when an object comes to add_object_entry_from_bitmap() it can come for two reasons: 1. entries coming from main pack covered by bitmap index, and 2. object coming from, possibly alternate, loose or other packs. For "2" we always have pack not yet found by bitmap traversal code, and thus we can simply reuse non-bitmapped want_object_in_pack() to find in which pack an object lives and also for taking omitting decision. For "1" we always have pack already found by bitmap traversal code and we only need to check that pack for same omission criteria used in want_object_in_pack() for found_pack.

That however was done only for case when resultant pack is sent to stdout, not written into a file. The reason here is for on-disk repack by default we want: - to produce good pack (with bitmap index not-yet-packed objects are emitted to pack in suboptimal order). - to use more robust pack-generation codepath (avoiding possible bugs in bitmap code and possible bitmap index corruption). Jeff Kind further explains: The reason for this split is that pack-objects tries to determine how "careful" it should be based on whether we are packing to disk or to stdout. Packing to disk implies "git repack", and that we will likely delete the old packs after finishing. We want to be more careful (so as not to carry forward a corruption, and to generate a more optimal pack), and we presumably run less frequently and can afford extra CPU. Whereas packing to stdout implies serving a remote via "git fetch" or "git push". This happens more frequently (e.g., a server handling many fetching clients), and we assume the receiving end takes more responsibility for verifying the data. But this isn't always the case. One might want to generate on-disk packfiles for a specialized object transfer. Just using "--stdout" and writing to a file is not optimal, as it will not generate the matching pack index. So it would be useful to have some way of overriding this heuristic: to tell pack-objects that even though it should generate on-disk files, it is still OK to use the reachability bitmaps to do the traversal. So we can teach pack-objects to use bitmap index for initial object counting phase when generating resultant pack file too: - if we care it is not activated under git-repack: See above about repack robustness and not forward-carrying corruption. - if we know bitmap index generation is not enabled for resultant pack: Current code has singleton bitmap_git so cannot work simultaneously with two bitmap indices. We also want to avoid (at least with current implementation) generating bitmaps off of bitmaps. The reason here is: when generating a pack, not-yet-packed objects will be emitted into pack in suboptimal order and added to tail of the bitmap as "extended entries". When the resultant pack + some new objects in associated repository are in turn used to generate another pack with bitmap, the situation repeats: new objects are again not emitted optimally and just added to bitmap tail - not in recency order. So the pack badness can grow over time when at each step we have bitmapped pack + some other objects. That's why we want to avoid generating bitmaps off of bitmaps, not to let pack badness grow. - if we keep pack reuse enabled still only for "send-to-stdout" case: Because on pack reuse raw entries are directly written out to destination pack by write_reused_pack() bypassing needed for pack index generation bookkeeping done by regular codepath in write_one() and friends. This way all git tests pass, and for pack-objects -> file we get nice speedup: erp5.git[1] (~230MB) extracted from ~ 5GB lab.nexedi.com backup repository managed by git-backup[2] via time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --revs erp5pack before: 37.2s after: 26.2s And for `git repack -adb` packed git.git time echo 5c589a73 | git pack-objects --revs gitpack before: 7.1s after: 3.6s i.e. it can be 30% - 50% speedup for pack extraction. git-backup extracts many packs on repositories restoration. That was my initial motivation for the patch. [1] https://lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/erp5 [2] https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/git-backup NOTE Jeff also suggests that pack.useBitmaps was probably a mistake to introduce originally. This way we are not adding another config point, but instead just always default to-file pack-objects not to use bitmap index: Tools which need to generate on-disk packs with using bitmap, can pass --use-bitmap-index explicitly. And git-repack does never pass --use-bitmap-index, so this way we can be sure regular on-disk repacking remains robust. NOTE2 `git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack` is much slower than `git pack-objects file.pack`. Extracting erp5.git pack from lab.nexedi.com backup repository: ---- 8< ---- $ time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --stdout --revs >erp5pack-stdout.pack real 0m22.309s user 0m21.148s sys 0m0.932s $ time git index-pack erp5pack-stdout.pack real 0m50.873s <-- more than 2 times slower than time to generate pack itself! user 0m49.300s sys 0m1.360s ---- 8< ---- So the time for `pack-object --stdout >file.pack` + `index-pack file.pack` is 72s, while `pack-objects file.pack` which does both pack and index is 27s. And even `pack-objects --no-use-bitmap-index file.pack` is 37s. Jeff explains: The packfile does not carry the sha1 of the objects. A receiving index-pack has to compute them itself, including inflating and applying all of the deltas. that's why for `git-backup restore` we want to teach `git pack-objects file.pack` to use bitmaps instead of using `git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack`.
