> Subject: [PATCH] subtree: performance improvement for finding
> unexpected parent commits
>
> After testing a previous patch at larger scale, a performance issue was
> detected when using git show to locate parent revisions, with a single run of
> the git show command taking 2 seconds or longer in a complex repo.
> When the command is required tens or hundreds of times in a run of the
> script, the additional wait time is unaccepatable. Replacing the command
> with git rev-parse resulted in significantly increased performance, with the
> command in question returning instantly.
