We already pass a `CompositeIndex` to
`default_revset_engine::evaluate()` so let's use that wherever we
currently use `repo.index()`. That will help us remove the `repo`
argument, and it will also let us internal types (like `IndexEntry`)
in the index methods we call.
I'm about to replace the `&dyn Repo` argument by several smaller
types, and it's easier to collect those in a single context type than
to pass them separately as arguments.
I also moved `revset_for_commit_ids()` and `take_latest_revset()` onto
the new type because it was easy. `build_predicate_fn()` and
`has_diff_from_parent()` ran into some lifetime issue when I tried.
The `public_heads()` revset only contains the root commit in
practice. I'm not sure what we want to do about phases, but since we
don't have any real support for them yet, let's just remove this
revset. I didn't update the changelog because we don't seem to have
documented the revset function (and it seems unlikely that users who
found out about it found it useful enough to use it when they could
just use `root`).
This serves the role of limit() in Mercurial. Since revsets in JJ is
(conceptually) an unordered set, a "limit" predicate should define its
ordering criteria. That's why the added predicate is named as "latest".
Closes#1110
There are no remaining places where we iterate over a revset and need
the `IndexEntry`s, so we can now make `Revset::iter()` yield
`CommitId`s instead.
I'm about to make `Revset::iter()` yield just `CommitId`s, but the
tests in `test_default_revset_graph_iterator.rs` need an `IndexEntry`
iterator so they can pass it into `RevsetGraphIterator::new()`. This
commits prepares for the change by adding a
`RevsetImpl::iter_graph_impl()` that returns `RevsetGraphIterator`,
keeping `InternalRevset` still hidden within the revset engine. We
could instead have made that (and `ToPredicateFn`) visible to tests. I
can't say which is better.
One of the remaining places we depend on index positions is when
creating a `ChangeIdIndex`. This moves that into the revset engine
(which is coupled to the commit index implementation) by adding a
`Revset::change_id_index()` method. We will also use this function
later when add support for resolving change id prefixes within a small
revset.
The current implementation simply creates an in-memory index using the
existing `IdIndex` we have in `repo.rs`.
The custom implementation at Google might do the same for small
revsets that are available on the client, but for revsets involving
many commits on the server, it might use a suboptimmal implementation
that uses longer-than-necessary prefixes for performance reasons. That
can be done by querying a server-side index including changes not in
the revset, and then verifying that the resulting commits are actually
in the revset.
The function is only used in tests, so it doesn't belong in
`default_revset_engine`. Also, it's not specific to that
implementation, so I rewrote as a revset evaluation.
For large repos, it's useful to be able to use shorter change id and
commit id prefixes by resolving the prefix in a limited subset of the
repo (typically the same subset that you'd want to see in your default
log output). For very large repos, like Google's internal one, the
shortest unique prefix evaluated within the whole repo is practically
useless because it's long enough that the user would want to copy and
paste it anyway.
Mercurial supports this with its `revisions.disambiguatewithin` config
(added in https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/rev/503f936489dd). I'd
like to add the same feature to jj. Mercurial's implementation works
by attempting to resolve the prefix in the whole repo and then, if the
prefix was ambiguous, it resolves it in the configured subset
instead. The advantage of doing it that way is that there's no extra
cost of resolving the revset defining the subset if the prefix was not
ambiguous within the whole repo. However, there are two important
reasons to do it differently in jj:
* We support very large repos using custom backends, and it's probably
cheaper to resolve a prefix within the subset because it can all be
cached on the client. Resolving the prefix within the whole repo
requires a roundtrip to the server.
* We want to be able to resolve change id prefixes, which is always
done in *some* revset. That revset is currently `all()`, i.e. all
visible commits. Even on local disk, it's probably cheaper to
resolve a small revset first and then resolve the prefix within that
than it is to build up the index of all visible change ids.
We could achieve the goal by letting each revset engine respect the
configured subset, but since the solution proposed above makes sense
also for local-disk repos, I think it's better to do it outside of the
revset engine, so all revset engines can share the code.
This commit prepares for the new functionality by moving the symbol
resolution out of `Index::evaluate_revset()`.
We want to allow custom revset engines define their own graph
iterator. This commit helps with that by adding a
`Revset::iter_graph()` function that returns an abstract iterator.
The current `RevsetGraphIterator` can be configured to skip or include
transitive edges. It skips them by default and we don't expose option
in the CLI. I didn't bother including that functionality in the new
`iter_graph()` either. At least for now, it will be up to the
implementation whether it includes such edges (it would of course be
free to ignore the caller's request even if we added an option for it
in the API).
We want to allow customization of the revset engine, so it can query
server indexes, for example. The current revset implementation will be
our default implementation for now. What's left in the `revset` module
after this commit is mostly parsing code.
