Our internal diff viewer displays untracked files to help users see if they should become tracked, or not. It is not meant as a full file viewer that handles any sort of input. Consequently it is rather unreasonable for users to expect us to show them very large files. Some users may click on a very big file (and not know its very big) then get surprised when Tk takes a long time to load the content and render it, especially if their memory is tight and their OS starts to swap processes out. Instead we now limit the amount of data we load to the first 128 KiB of any untracked file. If the file is larger than 128 KiB we display a warning message at the top of our diff viewer to notify the user that we are not going to load the entire thing. Users should be able to recognize a file just by its first 128 KiB and determine if it should be added to the repository or not. Since we are loading 128 KiB we may as well scan it to see if the file is binary. So I've removed the "first 8000 bytes" rule and just allowed git-gui to scan the entire data chunk that it read in. This is probably faster anyway if Tcl's [string range] command winds up making a copy of the data. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> |
