We are using git-1.8.2 version for version control. It is an centralized server and git status takes too long
How to improve the performance of git status
Git repo details:
Size of the .git folder is 8.9MB
Number of commits approx 53838 (git rev-list HEAD --count)
Number of branches - 330
Number of files - 63883
Working tree clone size is 4.3GB
time git status shows
real 0m23.673s
user 0m9.432s
sys 0m3.793s
then after 5 mins
real 0m4.864s
user 0m1.417s
sys 0m4.710s
And I have experimented the following ways
- - Setting core.ignorestat to true
- - Git gc &git clean
- - Shallow clone €“ Reducing number of commits
- - Clone only one branch
- Git repacking - git repack -ad && git prune
- - Cold/warm cache
Could you please let me know, what are the ways to improve the git performance ?
