OpenAI's work on Git for large repositories
4 hours ago
- Fixed a reused loop index that caused Coccinelle's static analysis to time out after six hours; isolated loop indexes drop the analysis time.
- Improved bitmap selection to consider reachable history instead of just path length, reducing MIDX bitmap write time from 984.73s to 200.06s.
- Added per-worker counters (item count, bytes, failures, elapsed time, slowest item) to parallel checkout for better diagnosis of long checkouts.
- Fixed a race condition where files changed between bulk content check and filesystem-monitor query; kept scan data available until final confirmation.
- Documented an optional .csts cache file for git status --porcelain=v2 that skips status only when index, HEAD, config, attributes, ignore rules, and filesystem-monitor history are unchanged.
