478 This means that Mercurial does ``the right thing'' when storing a file

jerojasro@localhost

479 whose native form is compressed, such as a \texttt{zip} archive or a

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
481 the resulting file is usually bigger than the once-compressed form,
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432

482 and so Mercurial will store the plain \texttt{zip} or JPEG.

485 snapshots of the file, and Mercurial again does ``the right thing'' in

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432

534 never needs to \emph{lock} a repository when it's reading data, even

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
554 a repository is locked, a writer will wait for a while to retry if the

555 repository becomes unlocked, but if the repository remains locked for

564 dirstate file; it does acquire a lock to write it. To avoid the

jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
565 possibility of reading a partially written copy of the dirstate file,
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
566 Mercurial writes to a file with a unique name in the same directory as

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st

572
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost

573 Critical to Mercurial's performance is the avoidance of seeks of the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
574 disk head, since any seek is far more expensive than even a
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
575 comparatively large read operation.

diff changeset
576
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
577 This is why, for example, the dirstate is stored in a single file. If
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
578 there were a dirstate file per directory that Mercurial tracked, the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
579 disk would seek once per directory. Instead, Mercurial reads the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
580 entire single dirstate file in one step.
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st

diff changeset
581
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
582 Mercurial also uses a ``copy on write'' scheme when cloning a
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
583 repository on local storage. Instead of copying every revlog file
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
584 from the old repository into the new repository, it makes a ``hard
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
585 link'', which is a shorthand way to say ``these two names point to the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
586 same file''. When Mercurial is about to write to one of a revlog's
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
587 files, it checks to see if the number of names pointing at the file is
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
588 greater than one. If it is, more than one repository is using the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
589 file, so Mercurial makes a new copy of the file that is private to
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
590 this repository.

jerojasro@localhost

592 A few revision control developers have pointed out that this idea of
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
593 making a complete private copy of a file is not very efficient in its
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
594 use of storage. While this is true, storage is cheap, and this method
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
595 gives the highest performance while deferring most book-keeping to the
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
596 operating system. An alternative scheme would most likely reduce
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
diff changeset
597 performance and increase the complexity of the software, each of which
2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost

598 is much more important to the ``feel'' of day-to-day use.

610 what to do with those files when you commit.

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost

2fb78d342e07 changed es/Leame.1st
jerojasro@localhost
parents: 432
