prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal
Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know
them.

list-objects: pass full pathname to callbacks
When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.
So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.
This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:
1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).
2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).
3. Not reachable and not recent.
We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.
However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.
One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!
Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.
This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):
0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
referred to, so the property holds.
1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
case for normal usage.
Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
property will continue to hold.
2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
implemented by this patch.
Note, however, that our reachability check and the
actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.

prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:
1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).
2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).
3. Not reachable and not recent.
We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.
However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.
One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!
Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.
This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):
0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
referred to, so the property holds.
1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
case for normal usage.
Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
property will continue to hold.
2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
implemented by this patch.
Note, however, that our reachability check and the
actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.

and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.

prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:
1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).
2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).
3. Not reachable and not recent.
We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.
However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.
One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!
Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.
This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):
0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
referred to, so the property holds.
1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
case for normal usage.
Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
property will continue to hold.
2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
implemented by this patch.
Note, however, that our reachability check and the
actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add

This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
case for normal usage.
Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
property will continue to hold.
2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
implemented by this patch.
Note, however, that our reachability check and the
actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.

prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:
1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).
2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).
3. Not reachable and not recent.
We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.
However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.
One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!
Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.
This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):
0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
referred to, so the property holds.
1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the

reachable: only mark local objects as recent
When pruning and repacking a repository that has an
alternate object store configured, we may traverse a large
number of objects in the alternate. This serves no purpose,
and may be expensive to do. A longer explanation is below.
Commits d3038d2 and abcb865 taught prune and pack-objects
(respectively) to treat "recent" objects as tips for
reachability, so that we keep whole chunks of history. They
built on the object traversal in 660c889 (sha1_file: add
for_each iterators for loose and packed objects,
2014-10-15), which covers both local and alternate objects.
In both cases, covering alternate objects is unnecessary, as
both commands can only drop objects from the local
repository. In the case of prune, we traverse only the local
object directory. And in the case of repacking, while we may
or may not include local objects in our pack, we will never
reach into the alternate with "repack -d". The "-l" option
is only a question of whether we are migrating objects from
the alternate into our repository, or leaving them
untouched.
It is possible that we may drop an object that is depended
upon by another object in the alternate. For example,
imagine two repositories, A and B, with A pointing to B as
an alternate. Now imagine a commit that is in B which
references a tree that is only in A. Traversing from recent
objects in B might prevent A from dropping that tree. But
this case isn't worth covering. Repo B should take
responsibility for its own objects. It would never have had
the commit in the first place if it did not also have the
tree, and assuming it is using the same "keep recent chunks
of history" scheme, then it would itself keep the tree, as
well.
So checking the alternate objects is not worth doing, and
come with a significant performance impact. In both cases,
we skip any recent objects that have already been marked
SEEN (i.e., that we know are already reachable for prune, or
included in the pack for a repack). So there is a slight
waste of time in opening the alternate packs at all, only to
notice that we have already considered each object. But much
worse, the alternate repository may have a large number of
objects that are not reachable from the local repository at
all, and we end up adding them to the traversal.
We can fix this by considering only local unseen objects.

prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal
Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know
them.

prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal
Pruning generally has to traverse the whole commit graph in order to
see which objects are reachable. This is the exact problem that
reachability bitmaps were meant to solve, so let's use them (if they're
available, of course).
Here are timings on git.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 3.65(3.56+0.09) 1.01(0.92+0.08) -72.3%
And on linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5304.6: prune with bitmaps 35.05(34.79+0.23) 3.00(2.78+0.21) -91.4%
The tests show a pretty optimal case, as we'll have just repacked and
should have pretty good coverage of all refs with our bitmaps. But
that's actually pretty realistic: normally prune is run via "gc" right
after repacking.
A few notes on the implementation:
- the change is actually in reachable.c, so it would improve
reachability traversals by "reflog expire --stale-fix", as well.
Those aren't performed regularly, though (a normal "git gc" doesn't
use --stale-fix), so they're not really worth measuring. There's a
low chance of regressing that caller, since the use of bitmaps is
totally transparent from the caller's perspective.
- The bitmap case could actually get away without creating a "struct
object", and instead the caller could just look up each object id in
the bitmap result. However, this would be a marginal improvement in
runtime, and it would make the callers much more complicated. They'd
have to handle both the bitmap and non-bitmap cases separately, and
in the case of git-prune, we'd also have to tweak prune_shallow(),
which relies on our SEEN flags.
- Because we do create real object structs, we go through a few
contortions to create ones of the right type. This isn't strictly
necessary (lookup_unknown_object() would suffice), but it's more
memory efficient to use the correct types, since we already know

rev-list: allow commit-only bitmap traversals
Ever since we added reachability bitmap support, we've been able to use
it with rev-list to get the full list of objects, like:
git rev-list --objects --use-bitmap-index --all
But you can't do so without --objects, since we weren't ready to just
show the commits. However, the internals of the bitmap code are mostly
ready for this: they avoid opening up trees when walking to fill in the
bitmaps. We just need to actually pass in the rev_info to
traverse_bitmap_commit_list() so it knows which types to bother
triggering our callback for.
For completeness, the perf test now covers both the existing --objects
case, as well as the new commits-only behavior (the objects one got way
faster when we introduced bitmaps, but obviously isn't improved now).
Here are numbers for linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.7: rev-list (commits) 8.29(8.10+0.19) 1.76(1.72+0.04) -78.8%
5310.8: rev-list (objects) 8.06(7.94+0.12) 8.14(7.94+0.13) +1.0%
That run was cheating a little, as I didn't have any commit-graph in the
repository, and we'd built it by default these days when running git-gc.
Here are numbers with a commit-graph:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.7: rev-list (commits) 0.70(0.58+0.12) 0.51(0.46+0.04) -27.1%
5310.8: rev-list (objects) 6.20(6.09+0.10) 6.27(6.16+0.11) +1.1%
Still an improvement, but a lot less impressive.
We could have the perf script remove any commit-graph to show the
out-sized effect, but it probably makes sense to leave it in what would
be a more typical setup.

prune: save reachable-from-recent objects with bitmaps
We pass our prune expiration to mark_reachable_objects(), which will
traverse not only the reachable objects, but consider any recent ones as
tips for reachability; see d3038d22f9 (prune: keep objects reachable
from recent objects, 2014-10-15) for details.
However, this interacts badly with the bitmap code path added in
fde67d6896 (prune: use bitmaps for reachability traversal, 2019-02-13).
If we hit the bitmap-optimized path, we return immediately to avoid the
regular traversal, accidentally skipping the "also traverse recent"
code.
Instead, we should do an if-else for the bitmap versus regular
traversal, and then follow up with the "recent" traversal in either
case. This reuses the "rev_info" for a bitmap and then a regular
traversal, but that should work OK (the bitmap code clears the pending
array in the usual way, just like a regular traversal would).
Note that I dropped the comment above the regular traversal here. It
has little explanatory value, and makes the if-else logic much harder to
read.
Here are a few variants that I rejected:
- it seems like both the reachability and recent traversals could be
done in a single traversal. This was rejected by d3038d22f9 (prune:
keep objects reachable from recent objects, 2014-10-15), though the
balance may be different when using bitmaps. However, there's a
subtle correctness issue, too: we use revs->ignore_missing_links for
the recent traversal, but not the reachability one.
- we could try using bitmaps for the recent traversal, too, which
could possibly improve performance. But it would require some fixes
in the bitmap code, which uses ignore_missing_links for its own
purposes. Plus it would probably not help all that much in practice.
We use the reachable tips to generate bitmaps, so those objects are
likely not covered by bitmaps (unless they just became unreachable).
And in general, we expect the set of unreachable objects to be much
smaller anyway, so there's less to gain.
The test in t5304 detects the bug and confirms the fix.
I also beefed up the tests in t6501, which covers the mtime-checking
code more thoroughly, to handle the bitmap case (in addition to just
"loose" and "packed" cases). Interestingly, this test doesn't actually
detect the bug, because it is running "git gc", and not "prune"
directly. And "gc" will call "repack" first, which does not suffer the
same bug. So the old-but-reachable-from-recent objects get scooped up
into the new pack along with the actually-recent objects, which gives
both a recent mtime. But it seemed prudent to get more coverage of the
bitmap case for related code.

prune: keep objects reachable from recent objects
Our current strategy with prune is that an object falls into
one of three categories:
1. Reachable (from ref tips, reflogs, index, etc).
2. Not reachable, but recent (based on the --expire time).
3. Not reachable and not recent.
We keep objects from (1) and (2), but prune objects in (3).
The point of (2) is that these objects may be part of an
in-progress operation that has not yet updated any refs.
However, it is not always the case that objects for an
in-progress operation will have a recent mtime. For example,
the object database may have an old copy of a blob (from an
abandoned operation, a branch that was deleted, etc). If we
create a new tree that points to it, a simultaneous prune
will leave our tree, but delete the blob. Referencing that
tree with a commit will then work (we check that the tree is
in the object database, but not that all of its referred
objects are), as will mentioning the commit in a ref. But
the resulting repo is corrupt; we are missing the blob
reachable from a ref.
One way to solve this is to be more thorough when
referencing a sha1: make sure that not only do we have that
sha1, but that we have objects it refers to, and so forth
recursively. The problem is that this is very expensive.
Creating a parent link would require traversing the entire
object graph!
Instead, this patch pushes the extra work onto prune, which
runs less frequently (and has to look at the whole object
graph anyway). It creates a new category of objects: objects
which are not recent, but which are reachable from a recent
object. We do not prune these objects, just like the
reachable and recent ones.
This lets us avoid the recursive check above, because if we
have an object, even if it is unreachable, we should have
its referent. We can make a simple inductive argument that
with this patch, this property holds (that there are no
objects with missing referents in the repository):
0. When we have no objects, we have nothing to refer or be
referred to, so the property holds.
1. If we add objects to the repository, their direct
referents must generally exist (e.g., if you create a
tree, the blobs it references must exist; if you create
a commit to point at the tree, the tree must exist).
This is already the case before this patch. And it is
not 100% foolproof (you can make bogus objects using
`git hash-object`, for example), but it should be the
case for normal usage.
Therefore for any sequence of object additions, the
property will continue to hold.
2. If we remove objects from the repository, then we will
not remove a child object (like a blob) if an object
that refers to it is being kept. That is the part
implemented by this patch.
Note, however, that our reachability check and the
actual pruning are not atomic. So it _is_ still
possible to violate the property (e.g., an object
becomes referenced just as we are deleting it). This
patch is shooting for eliminating problems where the
mtimes of dependent objects differ by hours or days,
and one is dropped without the other. It does nothing
to help with short races.
Naively, the simplest way to implement this would be to add
all recent objects as tips to the reachability traversal.
However, this does not perform well. In a recently-packed
repository, all reachable objects will also be recent, and
therefore we have to look at each object twice. This patch
instead performs the reachability traversal, then follows up
with a second traversal for recent objects, skipping any
that have already been marked.
