It turns out that it isn't necessary for operations like 'hg status' at all. Why? Consider the file 'foo/bar' on disk, which is represented in the dirstate as 'FOO/BAR'. On 'hg status', we'd walk down the directory tree, coming across 'foo' first. Before: we'd normalize 'foo' to 'FOO', then add 'FOO' to our visited stack. We'd then visit 'FOO', finding the file 'bar'. We'd normalize 'FOO/bar' to 'FOO/BAR', then add it to the results dict. After: we wouldn't normalize 'foo' at all. We'd add it to our visited stack, then visit 'foo', finding the file 'bar'. We'd normalize 'foo/bar' to 'FOO/BAR', then add it to the results dict. So whether we normalize intermediate directories or not actually makes no difference in most cases. The only case where normalization matters at all is if a file is replaced with a directory with the same case-folded name. In that case we can do a relatively cheap file normalization instead and still get away with not computing the set of directories. This is a nice boost in status performance. On OS X with case-insensitive HFS+, for a large repo with over 200,000 files, this brings down 'hg status' from 4.00 seconds to 3.62. diff -r 25c1d3ca5ff6 -r e235b5dc5cf9 mercurial/dirstate.py --- a/mercurial/dirstate.py Sun Mar 29 19:42:49 2015 -0700 +++ b/mercurial/dirstate.py Sun Mar 29 19:47:16 2015 -0700 @@ -744,10 +744,10 @@ skipstep3 = True if not exact and self._checkcase: - normalize = self._normalize + normalizefile = self._normalizefile skipstep3 = False else: - normalize = None + normalizefile = None # step 1: find all explicit files results, work, dirsnotfound = self._walkexplicit(match, subrepos) @@ -772,8 +772,11 @@ continue raise for f, kind, st in entries: - if normalize: - nf = normalize(nd and (nd + "/" + f) or f, True, True) + if normalizefile: + # even though f might be a directory, we're only interested + # in comparing it to files currently in the dmap -- + # therefore normalizefile is enough + nf = normalizefile(nd and (nd + "/" + f) or f, True, True) else: nf = nd and (nd + "/" + f) or f if nf not in results:
