This patch series is currently in RFC state and it aims to let Git use roaring bitmaps. As this is an RFC patch series (for now), the code are not fully accurate (i.e. some tests are failing). But it is backward-compatible (tests related to ewah bitmaps are passing). Some commit messages might need more explanation and some commits may need a split (specially the one that implement writing roaring bitmaps). Overall, the structure and code are near to ready to make the series a formal patch series.Extremely exciting. Congratulations on all of your work so far. I'm hopeful that you'll continue working on this after GSoC is over (for those playing along at home, Abhradeep's coding period was extended by a couple of weeks).
Yeah, I will continue (or better to say I am continuing) my work. I hope that I can submit the next version in the upcoming few days. Thanks for supporting and guiding me throughout the GSoC period. I have learned a lot of new things during this period.
I am still working through my post-Git Merge backlog, but I'm looking forward to reading these patches soon. I'm glad that other reviewers have already started to dive in :-).
No problem, I am doing some improvements by this time. By the way, I am very excited to see the Youtube Git-Merge recordings ;) Thanks :)
