Enable callers to generate reachability bitmaps when performing MIDX layer compaction by combining all existing bitmaps from the compacted layers. Note that the because of the object/pack ordering described by the previous commit, the pseudo-pack order for the compacted MIDX is the same as concatenating the individual pseudo-pack orderings for each layer in the compaction range. As a result, the only non-test or documentation change necessary is to treat all objects as non-preferred during compaction so as not to disturb the object ordering. In the future, we may want to adjust which commit(s) receive reachability bitmaps when compacting multiple .bitmap files into one, or even generate new bitmaps (e.g., if the references have moved significantly since the .bitmap was generated). This commit only implements combining all existing bitmaps in range together in order to demonstrate and lay the groundwork for more exotic strategies.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Write or verify a multi-pack-index (MIDX) file.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The following command-line options are applicable to all sub-commands:
|
|
|
|
--object-dir=<dir>::
|
|
Use given directory for the location of Git objects. We check
|
|
`<dir>/packs/multi-pack-index` for the current MIDX file, and
|
|
`<dir>/packs` for the pack-files to index.
|
|
+
|
|
`<dir>` must be an alternate of the current repository.
|
|
|
|
--progress::
|
|
--no-progress::
|
|
Turn progress on/off explicitly. If neither is specified, progress is
|
|
shown if standard error is connected to a terminal. Supported by
|
|
sub-commands `write`, `verify`, `expire`, and `repack`.
|
|
|
|
The following subcommands are available:
|
|
|
|
write::
|
|
Write a new MIDX file. The following options are available for
|
|
the `write` sub-command:
|
|
+
|
|
--
|
|
--preferred-pack=<pack>::
|
|
When specified, break ties in favor of this pack when
|
|
there are additional copies of its objects in other
|
|
packs. Ties for objects not found in the preferred
|
|
pack are always resolved in favor of the copy in the
|
|
pack with the highest mtime. If unspecified, the pack
|
|
with the lowest mtime is used by default. The
|
|
preferred pack must have at least one object.
|
|
|
|
--[no-]bitmap::
|
|
Control whether or not a multi-pack bitmap is written.
|
|
|
|
--stdin-packs::
|
|
Write a multi-pack index containing only the set of
|
|
line-delimited pack index basenames provided over stdin.
|
|
|
|
--refs-snapshot=<path>::
|
|
With `--bitmap`, optionally specify a file which
|
|
contains a "refs snapshot" taken prior to repacking.
|
|
+
|
|
A reference snapshot is composed of line-delimited OIDs corresponding to
|
|
the reference tips, usually taken by `git repack` prior to generating a
|
|
new pack. A line may optionally start with a `+` character to indicate
|
|
that the reference which corresponds to that OID is "preferred" (see
|
|
linkgit:git-config[1]'s `pack.preferBitmapTips`.)
|
|
+
|
|
The file given at `<path>` is expected to be readable, and can contain
|
|
duplicates. (If a given OID is given more than once, it is marked as
|
|
preferred if at least one instance of it begins with the special `+`
|
|
marker).
|
|
|
|
--incremental::
|
|
Write an incremental MIDX file containing only objects
|
|
and packs not present in an existing MIDX layer.
|
|
Migrates non-incremental MIDXs to incremental ones when
|
|
necessary.
|
|
--
|
|
|
|
compact::
|
|
Write a new MIDX layer containing only objects and packs present
|
|
in the range `<from>` to `<to>`, where both arguments are
|
|
checksums of existing layers in the MIDX chain.
|
|
+
|
|
--
|
|
--incremental::
|
|
Write the result to a MIDX chain instead of writing a
|
|
stand-alone MIDX. Incompatible with `--bitmap`.
|
|
--
|
|
|
|
verify::
|
|
Verify the contents of the MIDX file.
|
|
|
|
expire::
|
|
Delete the pack-files that are tracked by the MIDX file, but
|
|
have no objects referenced by the MIDX (with the exception of
|
|
`.keep` packs and cruft packs). Rewrite the MIDX file afterward
|
|
to remove all references to these pack-files.
|
|
+
|
|
NOTE: this mode is incompatible with incremental MIDX files.
|
|
|
|
repack::
|
|
Create a new pack-file containing objects in small pack-files
|
|
referenced by the multi-pack-index. If the size given by the
|
|
`--batch-size=<size>` argument is zero, then create a pack
|
|
containing all objects referenced by the multi-pack-index. For
|
|
a non-zero batch size, Select the pack-files by examining packs
|
|
from oldest-to-newest, computing the "expected size" by counting
|
|
the number of objects in the pack referenced by the
|
|
multi-pack-index, then divide by the total number of objects in
|
|
the pack and multiply by the pack size. We select packs with
|
|
expected size below the batch size until the set of packs have
|
|
total expected size at least the batch size, or all pack-files
|
|
are considered. If only one pack-file is selected, then do
|
|
nothing. If a new pack-file is created, rewrite the
|
|
multi-pack-index to reference the new pack-file. A later run of
|
|
'git multi-pack-index expire' will delete the pack-files that
|
|
were part of this batch.
|
|
+
|
|
If `repack.packKeptObjects` is `false`, then any pack-files with an
|
|
associated `.keep` file will not be selected for the batch to repack.
|
|
+
|
|
NOTE: this mode is incompatible with incremental MIDX files.
|
|
