From 578da0391a7958510b960eaf1ef30d13e791554e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Karsten Blees Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2014 02:07:01 +0200 Subject: git: add performance tracing for git's main() function to debug scripts Use trace_performance to measure and print execution time and command line arguments of the entire main() function. In constrast to the shell's 'time' utility, which measures total time of the parent process, this logs all involved git commands recursively. This is particularly useful to debug performance issues of scripted commands (i.e. which git commands were called with which parameters, and how long did they execute). Due to git's deliberate use of exit(), the implementation uses an atexit routine rather than just adding trace_performance_since() at the end of main(). Usage example: > GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=~/git-trace.log git stash list Creates a log file like this: 23:57:38.638765 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000310107 s: git command: 'git' 'rev-parse' '--git-dir' 23:57:38.644387 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000261759 s: git command: 'git' 'rev-parse' '--show-toplevel' 23:57:38.646207 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000304468 s: git command: 'git' 'config' '--get-colorbool' 'color.interactive' 23:57:38.648491 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000241667 s: git command: 'git' 'config' '--get-color' 'color.interactive.help' 'red bold' 23:57:38.650465 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000243063 s: git command: 'git' 'config' '--get-color' '' 'reset' 23:57:38.654850 trace.c:405 performance: 0.025126313 s: git command: 'git' 'stash' 'list' Signed-off-by: Karsten Blees Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano --- git.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'git.c') diff --git a/git.c b/git.c index 7780572948..d4daeb8604 100644 --- a/git.c +++ b/git.c @@ -568,6 +568,8 @@ int main(int argc, char **av) git_setup_gettext(); + trace_command_performance(argv); + /* * "git-xxxx" is the same as "git xxxx", but we obviously: * -- cgit v1.2.3
