git-p4: speed up search for branch parent
For every new branch that git-p4 imports, it needs to find the commit
where it branched off its parent branch. While p4 doesn't record this
information explicitly, the first changelist on a branch is usually an
identical copy of the parent branch.
The method searchParent() tries to find a commit in the history of the
given "parent" branch whose tree exactly matches the initial changelist
of the new branch, "target". The code iterates through the parent
commits and compares each of them to this initial changelist using
diff-tree.
Since we already know the tree object name we are looking for, spawning
diff-tree for each commit is wasteful.
Use the "--format" option of "rev-list" to find out the tree object name
of each commit in the history, and find the tree whose name is exactly
the same as the tree of the target commit to optimize this.
This results in a considerable speed-up, at least on Windows. On one
Windows machine with a fairly large repository of about 16000 commits in
the parent branch, the current code takes over 7 minutes, while the new
code only takes just over 10 seconds for the same changelist:
