read-cache: force_verify_index_checksum
Teach git to skip verification of the SHA1-1 checksum at the end of the index file in verify_hdr() which is called from read_index() unless the "force_verify_index_checksum" global variable is set. Teach fsck to force this verification. The checksum verification is for detecting disk corruption, and for small projects, the time it takes to compute SHA-1 is not that significant, but for gigantic repositories this calculation adds significant time to every command. These effect can be seen using t/perf/p0002-read-cache.sh: Test HEAD~1 HEAD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0002.1: read_cache/discard_cache 1000 times 0.66(0.44+0.20) 0.30(0.27+0.02) -54.5% Signed-off-by: Jeff Hostetler <jeffhost@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
