[PATCH v2 0/8] pack-bitmap-write: speed up bitmap generation

From: Taylor Blau <hidden>
Date: 2026-05-27 19:55:46

Here is a reroll of my series to improve the performance of reachability
bitmap generation, focusing on very large repositories and the penalty
to generate pseudo-merge reachability bitmaps.

The series is largely unchanged since last time. Notable changes in this
round include:

 - minor refactoring in the pair of patches which consolidate the
   `find_object_pos()` success path and introduce the object position
   cache during bitmap fills, and

 - dropping a stale paragraph from the final patch's message, which
   described follow-up commits that are no longer part of this series.

As usual, a range-diff against v1 is included below for convenience.

Thanks in advance for your review!

Taylor Blau (8):
  pack-bitmap: pass object position to `fill_bitmap_tree()`
  pack-bitmap: check subtree bits before recursing
  pack-bitmap: reuse stored selected bitmaps
  pack-bitmap: consolidate `find_object_pos()` success path
  pack-bitmap: cache object positions during fill
  pack-bitmap: sort bitmaps before XORing
  pack-bitmap: remember pseudo-merge parents
  pack-bitmap: build pseudo-merge bitmaps after regular bitmaps

    -    Now that we have decoupled how we generate pseudo-merges from their

    -    specifying pseudo-merge groupings during bitmap generation.
