__gitcomp_nl() iterates over all the possible completion words it gets as argument - filtering matching words, - appending a trailing space to each matching word (in all but two cases), - prepending a prefix to each matching word (when completing words after e.g. '--option=<TAB>' or 'master..<TAB>'), and - adding each matching word to the COMPREPLY array. This takes a while when a lot of refs are passed to __gitcomp_nl(). The previous changes in this series ensure that __git_refs() lists only refs matching the current word to be completed, making a second filtering in __gitcomp_nl() redundant. Adding the necessary prefix and suffix could be done in __git_refs() as well: - When refs come from 'git for-each-ref', then that prefix and suffix could be added much more efficiently using a 'git for-each-ref' format containing said prefix and suffix. Care should be taken, though, because that prefix might contain 'for-each-ref' format specifiers as part of the left hand side of a '..' range or '...' symmetric difference notation or fetch/push/etc. refspec, e.g. 'git log "evil-%(refname)..br<TAB>'. Doubling every '%' in the prefix will prevent 'git for-each-ref' from interpolating any of those contained specifiers. - When refs come from 'git ls-remote', then that prefix and suffix can be added in the shell loop that has to process 'git ls-remote's output anyway. - Finally, the prefix and suffix can be added to that handful of potentially matching symbolic and pseudo refs right away in the shell loop listing them. And then all what is still left to do is to assign a bunch of newline-separated words to a shell array, which can be done without a shell loop iterating over each word, basically making all of __gitcomp_nl() unnecessary for refs completion. Add the helper function __gitcomp_direct() to fill the COMPREPLY array with prefiltered and preprocessed words without any additional processing, without a shell loop, with just one single compound assignment. Modify __git_refs() to accept prefix and suffix parameters and add them to each and every listed ref as described above. Modify __git_complete_refs() to pass the prefix and suffix parameters to __git_refs() and to feed __git_refs()'s output to __gitcomp_direct() instead of __gitcomp_nl(). This speeds up refs completion when there are a lot of refs matching the current word to be completed. Listing all branches for completion in a repo with 100k local branches, all packed, best of five: On Linux, near the beginning of this series, for reference: $ time __git_complete_refs real 0m2.028s user 0m1.692s sys 0m0.344s Before this patch: real 0m1.135s user 0m1.112s sys 0m0.024s After: real 0m0.367s user 0m0.352s sys 0m0.020s On Windows, near the beginning: real 0m13.078s user 0m1.609s sys 0m0.060s Before this patch: real 0m2.093s user 0m1.641s sys 0m0.060s After: real 0m0.683s user 0m0.203s sys 0m0.076s Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> |

Contributed Software Although these pieces are available as part of the official git source tree, they are in somewhat different status. The intention is to keep interesting tools around git here, maybe even experimental ones, to give users an easier access to them, and to give tools wider exposure, so that they can be improved faster. I am not expecting to touch these myself that much. As far as my day-to-day operation is concerned, these subdirectories are owned by their respective primary authors. I am willing to help if users of these components and the contrib/ subtree "owners" have technical/design issues to resolve, but the initiative to fix and/or enhance things _must_ be on the side of the subtree owners. IOW, I won't be actively looking for bugs and rooms for enhancements in them as the git maintainer -- I may only do so just as one of the users when I want to scratch my own itch. If you have patches to things in contrib/ area, the patch should be first sent to the primary author, and then the primary author should ack and forward it to me (git pull request is nicer). This is the same way as how I have been treating gitk, and to a lesser degree various foreign SCM interfaces, so you know the drill. I expect that things that start their life in the contrib/ area to graduate out of contrib/ once they mature, either by becoming projects on their own, or moving to the toplevel directory. On the other hand, I expect I'll be proposing removal of disused and inactive ones from time to time. If you have new things to add to this area, please first propose it on the git mailing list, and after a list discussion proves there are some general interests (it does not have to be a list-wide consensus for a tool targeted to a relatively narrow audience -- for example I do not work with projects whose upstream is svn, so I have no use for git-svn myself, but it is of general interest for people who need to interoperate with SVN repositories in a way git-svn works better than git-svnimport), submit a patch to create a subdirectory of contrib/ and put your stuff there. -jc
