If the file is writable by the user, but owned by a different user, the
chmod will otherwise fail with "Operation not permitted".
Additionally make very sure that the file is only written if either the number
of links is <= 1 or the file was successfully removed.
Maybe this minimal COW code should be replaced by something from util.
The test fails when, in the call to calloc(), the number of elements (bn)
is 0. In that case, calloc() on AIX will return NULL, while the code expects
a valid heap pointer. Both results are permissible under C99, Unix98 etc.
Work around by ensuring that at least 1 element is requested.
if not verbose:
- print 's' rather than '.'
- pass skipped test reports back to parent for -j
- report which tests were skipped at the end
- print '.' after test completion
Color commits by author. Colors will be assigned to authors by using a configurable list of colors. The line corresponding to current id (the version currently in the working tree) is highlighted in a special font which is also configurable. There is provision to assign fixed colors to authors. See .gitk comment for details.
- manually inline mode_to_kind
- remove unused alloca include
- remove fstatat and associated bits
It's not obvious that there's an advantage to using fstatat in terms
of performance. The race-avoidance properties of fstatat aren't
terribly useful to us either. So best to avoid it until we figure out
how to use it portably.
- adjust the common line threshold to .1%
this speeds up a delta of 7M lines of source from 10m to 40s
- adjust the scaling of the hash array down a bit as it was raising the peak
memory usage significantly
Python's zlib apparently makes an internal copy of strings passed to
compress(). To avoid this, compress strings 1M at a time, then join
them at the end if the result would be smaller than the original.
For initial commits of large but compressible files, this cuts peak
memory usage nearly in half.
- use a buffer to extract the delta from a chunk
- avoid concatenating to a compressed delta
- use a buffer to directly extra full text from a trivial delta
- delete chunk and delta objects after use
