[PATCH v2 1/2] sha1-file: support OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH

From
JTJonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com>
Date
Mar 29, 2019, 21:39 UTC
Message-ID
<068861632b85179d2a5a5ceb966e951a78b27141.1553895166.git.jonathantanmy@google.com>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1553895166.git.jonathantanmy@google.com>

Teach oid_object_info_extended() to support a new flag that inhibits fetching of missing objects. This is equivalent to setting fetch_is_missing to 0, calling oid_object_info_extended(), then setting fetch_if_missing to whatever it was before. Update unpack-trees.c to use this new flag instead of repeatedly setting fetch_if_missing.

This new flag complicates things slightly in that there are now 2 ways to do the same thing. But this eliminates the need to repeatedly set a global variable, and more importantly, allows prefetching to be done in parallel (in the future); hence, this patch.
