Junio C Hamano	6bd20358a9	write-tree: --prefix=<path> The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple projects into a single commit. In such an organization, there would be one project, root of whose tree object is at the same level of the root of the aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the "primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects". You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ repeatedly. To write out a tree object from such an index for a subproject, write-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ is used. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	2956dd3bd7	cache_tree_update: give an option to update cache-tree only. When the extra "dryrun" parameter is true, cache_tree_update() recomputes the invalid entry but does not actually creates new tree object. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	7927a55d5b	read-tree: teach 1-way merege and plain read to prime cache-tree. This teaches read-tree to fully populate valid cache-tree when reading a tree from scratch, or reading a single tree into an existing index, reusing only the cached stat information (i.e. one-way merge). We have already taught update-index about cache-tree, so "git checkout" followed by updates to a few path followed by a "git commit" would become very efficient.

Junio C Hamano	bad68ec924	index: make the index file format extensible. ... and move the cache-tree data into it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>	19 years ago
Junio C Hamano	749864627c	Add cache-tree. The cache_tree data structure is to cache tree object names that would result from the current index file. The idea is to have an optional file to record each tree object name that corresponds to a directory path in the cache when we run write_cache(), and read it back when we run read_cache(). During various index manupulations, we selectively invalidate the parts so that the next write-tree can bypass regenerating tree objects for unchanged parts of the directory hierarchy. We could perhaps make the cache-tree data an optional part of the index file, but that would involve the index format updates, so unless we need it for performance reasons, the current plan is to use a separate file, $GIT_DIR/index.aux to store this information and link it with the index file with the checksum that is already used for index file integrity check.
