Before digging into the details of the API, let's discuss the applications which will hint at the API's design. APPLICATIONS OF THE PATH-WALK API ================================= The applications of this API were discovered in the following order, though I recommend reversing the order for the priority of their actual implementation in future patch series: * git backfill: a builtin to download missing blobs in a blobless partial clone, done in batches and grouped by the path they appear in to maximize delta compression in each batch. Allows focusing on the paths of the sparse-checkout to only get the blobs necessary for history queries in the current focus. * git survey: Jeff Hostetler built this feature [1] as a way to get functionality similar to git-sizer [2], but using the internals of Git to do it faster. It also displays information not available to git-sizer, like the on-disk size of objects. This RFC presents a simplified version of the builtin focused on listing the paths that contribute the most to the on-disk size of trees and blobs. * git pack-objects --path-walk: In order to find a way to compute deltas among objects of the same path, I applied the path-walk API to 'git pack-objects' behind an optional flag. There are overlaps with the '--sparse' option [3], [4] that can be used here. This provides perfect partitioning by path name, without any possible collisions from the name-hash algorithm. It also allows using the name-hash values to find cross-path delta chains in a second pass. * git repack --full-name-hash: If we are worried about name-hsah collisions, an easier thing to implement is a different name-hash algorithm that is less likely to have collisions. This feature was already sent to the mailing list as a fully-reviewable series [5]. It is included here because this series allows testing the --path-walk option against the --full-name-hash.

(Feel free to skip. Otherwise, thank you for indulging me.) I first prototyped 'git backfill' as a way to download some of the largest repositories without being blocked on a full clone. This batched download mechanism allowed me to essentially have a retryable clone, since the client could restart the process from scratch and skip any objects that were already on disk. It was natural to batch based on the path of the blobs in order to theoretically save time and network bandwidth due to better delta calculations. While investigating these repositories, I had some data hinting at the total size of the objects by type. But I was most interested in learning what exactly was causing this growth. I did have a hint that the "release" branches were taking up much more space than the default branch, since cloning with --single-branch resulted in ~55GB of data but then fetching the release branches led to an additional ~125GB of data. Using "git diff" it was clear that these branches stored some CHANGELOG.json and CHANGELOG.md files, but the diffs were relatively small (but multiple such changes were batched together into a single new commit). I needed to see why exactly these paths were taking up so much space. To this, I turned to Jeff Hostetler's new "git survey" command. This told me information about the total size of trees and blobs and told me the path name for the individual blobs that were the largest in the repository. These paths were typically binary files that appeared only once or twice and did not account for the scale issues. I modified 'git survey' to use the same path-batching logic as in 'git backfill' to then consider each batch of objects and their size. Thus, the "path-walk API" was born. (This RFC contains a version that looks like it was created before 'git backfill'.) The repository I was looking at had a clear pattern in its top 100 file paths by on-disk size: 99 of them were CHANGELOG.json and CHANGELOG.md files. The .md files surprised me, since they were always simple appends of the previous .md file at the same path. The .json files were capped in how many versions were being listed (at least in recent versions) but the data it stored was harder to compress. So I went looking into how 'git push' was calculating these delta bases. Adding some debug information to 'git pack-objects' demonstrated that the previous file versions were not being matched as delta bases. Instead, other new blobs in the push were being used as delta bases. This meant that what should have been a trivial set of deltas bloated to 20-60 MB. (We will see later that it is possible for these to be 100-500 KB.) Here is where I went on a little bit of a detour. (Come with me, it's important.) I knew that 'git pack-objects' used a name-hash to group objects by path, so I assumed that the reason these delta bases were not found was because the UNINTERESTING objects were not being added to the packing list. I have since discovered that this is incorrect, but I might have gotten stuck if I didn't think this. This seemed like a natural reason to extend the path-walk API to allow walking commits and tags as part of 'git pack-objects' behind a new '--path-walk' option. The idea here is to compute deltas among the objects that share a common path and then later go through the (type, name-hash, size) sorting system to find other delta bases across path boundaries. After a lot of testing, failing, and testing again, the implementation in this RFC finally works to achieve the goal. It's not pretty (especially with how it handles tags) but it gets the job done. In hindsight, I realized that the UNINTERESTING objects were being considered, but due to collisions in the name-hash algorithm these objects were being sorted outside of the delta computation window. For this reason, I thought to create a new name-hash algorithm. Thus, the --full-name-hash option for 'git pack-objects' and 'git repack' was born. This feature was split out and sent to the mailing list independently from this RFC. RFC GOALS ========= The goals of this RFC are: 1. To demonstrate potential applications of the path-walk API to motivate its generality as these features are sent in full-quality patch series, but in a different order. 2. To communicate the discoveries found during the --path-walk and --full-name-hash features in 'git pack-objects' and 'git repack'. This includes comparing and contrasting the effectiveness of these features. 3. To demonstrate the value of the path-based batching in the 'git survey' feature, and to inspire others to think about what other statistics would be valuable in that feature. (I anticipate that once a base is established, multiple contributors will help expand its functionality long into the future.) RFC OUTLINE =========== The patches are grouped roughly by the application, in order of discovery: PART I: 'git backfill' ====================== These patches introduce the 'git backfill' builtin including its '--batch-size' and '--sparse' options. While this is the first and simplest application, it is also the lowest priority in terms of user need. * path-walk: introduce an object walk by path * backfill: add builtin boilerplate * backfill: basic functionality and tests * backfill: add --batch-size= option * backfill: add --sparse option * backfill: assume --sparse when sparse-checkout is enabled PART II: 'git survey' ===================== These patches reimplement a subset of the functionality of 'git survey' as well as generalize some of the data structures that Jeff's implementation made. The flexibility hopefully comes through to show the potential for future extensions. These patches are quite rough and will need more attention before they can be sent for full review. * path-walk: allow consumer to specify object types * path-walk: allow visiting tags * survey: stub in new experimental git-survey command * survey: add command line opts to select references * survey: collect the set of requested refs * survey: start pretty printing data in table form * survey: add object count summary * survey: summarize total sizes by object type * survey: show progress during object walk * survey: add ability to track prioritized lists * survey: add report of "largest" paths PART III: 'git pack-objects --path-walk' ======================================== Here is where I think the meat of the RFC really lies. There are still some rough edges, but the data will show that 'git pack-objects --path-walk' has the potential to be an extremely effective way to pack objects. (Caveats will come later in the analysis section.) * revision: create mark_trees_uninteresting_dense() * path-walk: add prune_all_uninteresting option * pack-objects: add --path-walk option * pack-objects: extract should_attempt_deltas() * pack-objects: introduce GIT_TEST_PACK_PATH_WALK * p5313: add size comparison test * repack: add --path-walk option * pack-objects: enable --path-walk via config * scalar: enable path-walk during push via config One obvious issue with this current implementation is that it inlines much of the delta calculation into the "Enumerate objects" phase, and thus makes it single-threaded. This should be fixed before being considered for full review, but even without threading this version can out-perform the standard packing strategy in terms of end-to-end packing time! PART IV: 'git repack --full-name-hash' ====================================== This is a simplified version of the patch series that was split out by itself earlier for full review. This was split out on its own partly because it doesn't actually use the path-walk API. This has benefits and drawbacks, but it seems like a quick win for many scenarios. * pack-objects: add --full-name-hash option * test-name-hash: add helper to compute name-hash functions * p5314: add a size test for name-hash collisions * pack-objects: output debug info about deltas This last patch is an add-on of the debugging information that I used to discover issues with delta bases during 'git push'. DISCUSSION OF NAME HASH ======================= One thing to talk about before digging into --path-walk and --full-name-hash features is the existing name-hash algorithm. This hash algorithm creates a uint32_t based on the final 16 characters of the path name, weighing the last characters more. There are multiple benefits to this: 1. Files of common types (.c, .txt, ...) may be grouped together. 2. Files that are renamed across directories may be grouped together. (Thanks, Junio, for making this second benefit clear.) The issue here is that some common patterns arise in repositories that use common path names across directories, and those files are creating name-hash collisions and making the sort less effective. One thing that can counteract these collisions is to increase the --window setting, but this significantly slows the delta computations. Thus, the --path-walk and --full-name-hash features both attempt to combat these name-hash collisions in very different ways. The --path-walk mechanism uses the path-walk API to consider batches of objects that all share the same path. This avoids storing every possible path names in memory while doing the object walk, but still gives nice boundaries for delta compression possibilities. After the path-walk is complete, the full packing list is still sorted via name-hash and this allows for cross-path deltas. This is critical! The --full-name-hash feature does the simpler choice of replacing the name-hash method with one that has fewer collisions, but loses the benefits of "nearby" paths having close hash values. This naturally leads to these two main differences in the two approaches: 1. The --full-name-hash feature is not good for 'git push' or similarly small pack-files. Since it limits the delta chains to objects with the same full path and loses the benefit of "nearby" paths, this feature should be used for larger repacks. In my testing, 'git push' simulations almost always have poor packing but 'git repack -adf' simulations have packing rivaling the --path-walk option. 2. The --path-walk option changes the object ordering significantly, meaning it may not ever be appropriate to combine with advanced repacking features such as delta islands or even reachability bitmaps. While my testing has shown that the --path-walk repacks are the most efficient of all options, this limitation makes me hesitate to recommend it wider than client repositories. One natural question to consider is to think about storing both the name-hash and the full-name-hash and doing two delta passes, each one sorting the objects by a different hash function. The first issue is that we don't want to store two hash values per object, as that will significantly increase the memory pressure during repacking. This could be side-stepped by storing the full-name-hash in the packing list and then a second mapping from full-name-hash to name-hash. However, that still leads to the two passes taking extra time. The --path-walk approach is faster than even a single pass. And in the right scenarios, the --full-name-hash option is very close to the --path-walk results. ANALYSIS OF PACKING STRATEGIES ============================== Since I was focused on an internal monorepo that stored a large collection of Javascript packages, it should be no surprise that I eventually found other Javascript repositories that used similar tooling and thus had similar issues with unexplained scale problems. I'll use these four repositories as examples repeatedly, but one is actually public: microsoft/fluentui [6]. I'll use Repo B, C, and D for the others, in increasing size. [6] https://github.com/microsoft/fluentui In each of these repositories, doing a full repack ('git repack -adf') right after cloning presents a sizeable reduction in space. This is expected for servers not being optimized for exactly the reachable set I'm cloning. So, I'll focus on how much the default repacking parameters compare to using the --full-name-hash or --path-walk options: | Repo | Standard Repack | With --full-name-hash | With --path-walk | |----------|-----------------|-----------------------|------------------| | fluentui | 438 MB | 168 MB | 148 MB | | Repo B | 6,255 MB | 829 MB | 778 MB | | Repo C | 37,737 MB | 7,125 MB | 6,158 MB | | Repo D | 130,049 MB | 6,190 MB | 4,432 MB | Hopefully these reductions show how much these name-hash collisions are causing issues in these repositories. For the fluentui repo, I'm also able to share highlights from the 'git survey' output immediately after cloning and after repacking with the --path-walk option. First, we can consider the total reachable objects in each scenario: TOTAL OBJECT SIZES BY TYPE ================================================ Object Type | Count | Disk Size | Inflated Size ------------+--------+-----------+-------------- Commits | 20579 | 10443669 | 15092790 Trees | 276503 | 40212070 | 244429615 Blobs | 294500 | 635365661 | 10791187920 TOTAL OBJECT SIZES BY TYPE ================================================ Object Type | Count | Disk Size | Inflated Size ------------+--------+-----------+-------------- Commits | 20579 | 10450605 | 15092790 Trees | 276503 | 31136263 | 244429615 Blobs | 294500 | 94442401 | 10791187920 Now, we can consider the top 10 file paths before and after repacking with the --path-walk feature: TOP FILES BY DISK SIZE =================================================================== Path | Count | Disk Size | Inflated Size --------------------------------+-------+-----------+-------------- yarn.lock | 802 | 58060531 | 889120488 ...-experiments/CHANGELOG.json | 505 | 28439452 | 252723999 ...fabric-react/CHANGELOG.json | 1270 | 25556510 | 902756623 ...t-components/CHANGELOG.json | 176 | 20366365 | 244936649 ...act-charting/CHANGELOG.json | 590 | 20106422 | 208224460 ...e-components/CHANGELOG.json | 559 | 15761271 | 189061764 ...act-examples/CHANGELOG.json | 577 | 13615569 | 234949961 ...react-charting/CHANGELOG.md | 564 | 11205840 | 104337986 .../experiments/CHANGELOG.json | 569 | 10596377 | 123662770 ...i-fabric-react/CHANGELOG.md | 1263 | 8154248 | 261494258 TOP FILES BY DISK SIZE =================================================================== Path | Count | Disk Size | Inflated Size --------------------------------+-------+-----------+-------------- yarn.lock | 802 | 9909326 | 889120488 ...iceBrandGuide_16Sep2016.pdf | 1 | 2106334 | 2186005 ...out/src/images/download.jpg | 1 | 1845249 | 1846117 ...fluent-ui-logo-inverted.png | 3 | 1370372 | 1447493 .yarn/releases/cli.js | 1 | 1335657 | 6741614 ...c/images/fluent-ui-logo.png | 3 | 1272902 | 1341139 ...ages/fluent-ui-logo-dev.png | 3 | 1130989 | 1186897 ...nents/public/SegoeUI-VF.ttf | 1 | 1074046 | 1844524 ...ig/rush/npm-shrinkwrap.json | 138 | 1058531 | 89326567 ...Accessibility_29Sep2016.pdf | 1 | 856621 | 927268 As we can see from this example, before the repack we are mainly seeing the disk space be dominated by objects that appear at paths with CHANGELOG.json or CHANGELOG.md, which are frequently hitting collisions with the default name-hash. After the repack with the --path-walk feature, we see the largest paths are what we expect: checked in binaries, frequently-edited yarn files, and other hard-to- compress data. The nice thing about this result is that we can point to files that are taking up space because there is no other way around it, not that the naming convention for the files is causing confusion during packing. WHAT TO DO NOW? =============== Thank you for reading this far. I hope that this has added context on the patch series for the --full-name-hash option, but also provided the right context for when I come back in a week or so with a review-ready version of the --path-walk option. These patches are rough and I want to make sure everyone knows that. Reviewing them for style or even basic organization may lead to some wasted time. I know that at least one of the patches got mangled and its diff does not match its description (I'm thinking specifically about "pack-objects: extract should_attempt_deltas()" but this could apply elsewhere). But I think that interested parties could take my branch, build it, and give these features a try on their favorite repos. I'd love to hear feedback on the usability and effectiveness, especially if someone finds a case where the --path-walk option is less effective at packing data. There are two things going on since I started working on this series that could cause issues with applying this series on top of current 'master' or with topics in 'seen': * The most obvious one is the collision with the --full-name-hash feature under review. The in-review series takes precedent. * The unused parameter warnings are now errors! I'm glad that got in, but I wasn't careful about it in these RFC patches. * John Cai is proposing to change the builtin interface to have builtin methods take a repository pointer. I approve of this effort, but it collides with the two new builtins introduced here. As discussed above, the 'git survey' and 'git backfill' builtins are the lowest priority items for getting merged, in my opinion, so they can wait until that change has been made. I look forward to any and all comments.
