[darcs-users] Sprint: Patch index progress report

[Benedikt Schmidt]

Hi all,

my main goal for the sprint was to port the code I wrote at the beginning of the summer to screened. I managed to port the code for creating, updating, and querying the patchindex. The main difficulty was that witnesses are more ubiquitous in the repository code (good!), but nothing big came up.

My next step will be to make changes <filename> and annotate take advantage of the patch-index. For changes, it should be pretty straightforward to port my old code. For annotate, I'm not sure if starting with Petr's new code in adventure makes more sense. Is there anyone who has an idea how much the annotate changes depend on other patches in adventure?

I have attached the patch. You can test it for example with 'darcs optimize --patch-index; darcs show patch-index-all':

This means that in the given timespans ./GNUmakefile and ./Makefile referred to the file with the unique id 1#./Makefile, that the file with id 1#./Makefile had the given names in the given timespans, and that it was touched by the listed patches.

Best,
