This is just a little preparation for extracting a `Repo` trait that's
implemented by both `ReadonlyRepo` and `MutableRepo`. The `index()`
function in that trait will of course have to return the same type in
both implementations, and that type will be `&dyn Index`.
Even though we don't know the details yet, we know that we want to
make the index pluggable like the commit and opstore
backends. Defining a trait for it should be a good step. We can refine
the trait later.
We already have `create_random_commit()`, which returns a
`CommitBuilder`. Most callers directly write that to a
`MutableRepo`. That currently returns a `Commit`, but I'm about to
make it propagate errors from the backend. That would add an
`unwrap()` to this sequence, making it longer. Let's create a simple
helper for these callers to simplify this common pattern.
When you're done with the `CommitBuilder`, you're going to have to
call `write_to_repo()`, passing it a mutable `MutableRepo`
reference. It's a bit simpler to pass that reference when we create
the `CommitBuilder` instead, so that's what this patch does.
A drawback of passing in the mutable reference when we create the
builder is that we can't have multiple unfinished `CommitBuilder`
instance live at the same time. We don't have any such use cases yet,
and it's not hard to work around them, so I think this change is worth
it.
This will be a building block of 'parents(base)' revset. 'base---' will
be .filter_by_generation(3..4) for example. I think 'ancestors(base)' can
also have an optional generation parameter, but I haven't considered any
particular syntax yet.

correctly, it won't have any legal effect, but maybe it still helps
reduce concerns from contributors (though I haven't heard any
concerns).

We currently get the hostname and username from the `whoami` crate. We
do that in lib crate, without giving the caller a way to override
them. That seems wrong since it might be used in a server and
performing operations on behalf of some other user. This commit makes
the hostname and username configurable, so the calling crate can pass
them in. If they have not been passed in, we still default to the
values from the `whoami` crate.
These calls often appear in expressions long enough that not having to
qualify it means that we can sometimes avoid wrapping a line. I
noticed because IntelliJ told me that `test_git.rs` had some
unnecessary qualificiations (the function was already imported there).
The `testutils` module should ideally not be part of the library
dependencies. Since they're used by the integration tests (and the CLI
tests), we need to move them to a separate crate to achieve that.
This changes `RepoLoader` to take a map of functions that load a
specific type of backend, keyed by the backend type. The backend type
is read from `.jj/repo/store/backend`.
In many of these places, we don't need an owned value, so using a
reference means we don't force the caller to clone the value. I really
doubt it will have any noticeable impact on performance (I think these
are all once-per-repo paths); it's just a little simpler this way.
We don't even have any settings that affect the repo, so there's no
point in passing the settings. I think this was a leftover from before
we separated out the "workspace" concept; now we no longer create a
working-copy commit when we initialize a repo (we do that when we
attach the workspace).
Most tests need a repo but don't need a working copy. Let's have a
function for setting up a test repo. But first, let's free up the name
`init_repo()` by renaming it to `init_workspace()` (which is also more
accurate).
I'm about to change `ReadonlyRepo::load()` to take the path to the
`.jj/` directory, so this patch prepares for that. It already works
because `ReadonlyRepo::load()` will search up the directory tree for
the `.jj/` entry.
Before this change, you could end up with an index segment with 10
commits, then a child segment with 9 commits, then another child with
8 commits, and so on. That's not what I had intended. This changes
makes it so we squash if a segment has more than half as many commits
as its parent instead.
I thought I had looked for this case and cleaned up all the places
when I made `Transaction::commit()` return a new `ReadonlyRepo`. I
must have forgotten to do that, because there we tons of places to
clean up left.
We currently write a new incremental index file every time. That means
that the stack of index files quickly gets deep, which makes it slow
to read the index. This commit makes it so that we squash the new
index segment into its parent if the parent has fewer commits. That
means we'll limit the number of files to O(log n). Writes time will
also be O(log n) on average.
I've confused myself a few times already thinking that level 0 is the
root, so that's probably more intuitive. It also makes tests simpler
because the initial part of the list is unchanged when a new
transaction commits.
The check for adding an existing commit to the index only checked if
the commit was already in the `MutableIndex`, not if it was already in
the parent `ReadonlyIndex`.
With tons of groundwork done, wee can now finally keep the index up to
date within a transaction! That means that we can start relying on the
index to always be valid, so we can use it e.g. for finding common
ancestors within a transaction. That should help speed up `jj evolve`
immensely on large repos.
We still don't write the updated index to disk when the transaction
closes. That will come later.
