packfile: actually set approximate_object_count_valid The approximate_object_count() function tries to compute the count only once per process. But ever since it was introduced in 8e3f52d778 (find_unique_abbrev: move logic out of get_short_sha1(), 2016-10-03), we failed to actually set the "valid" flag, meaning we'd compute it fresh on every call. This turns out not to be _too_ bad, because we're only iterating through the packed_git list, and not making any system calls. But since it may get called for every abbreviated hash we output, even this can add up if you have many packs. Here are before-and-after timings for a new perf test which just asks rev-list to abbreviate each commit hash (the test repo is linux.git, with commit-graphs): Test origin HEAD ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 28.91(28.46+0.44) 29.03(28.65+0.38) +0.4% 5303.4: abbrev-commit (1) 1.18(1.06+0.11) 1.17(1.02+0.14) -0.8% 5303.7: rev-list (50) 28.95(28.56+0.38) 29.50(29.17+0.32) +1.9% 5303.8: abbrev-commit (50) 3.67(3.56+0.10) 3.57(3.42+0.15) -2.7% 5303.11: rev-list (1000) 30.34(29.89+0.43) 30.82(30.35+0.46) +1.6% 5303.12: abbrev-commit (1000) 86.82(86.52+0.29) 77.82(77.59+0.22) -10.4% 5303.15: load 10,000 packs 0.08(0.02+0.05) 0.08(0.02+0.06) +0.0% It doesn't help at all when we have 1 pack (5303.4), but we get a 10% speedup when there are 1000 packs (5303.12). That's a modest speedup for a case that's already slow and we'd hope to avoid in general (note how slow it is even after, because we have to look in each of those packs for abbreviations). But it's a one-line change that clearly matches the original intent, so it seems worth doing. The included perf test may also be useful for keeping an eye on any regressions in the overall abbreviation code.

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
