Subject: [PATCH v3 7/9] promisor-remote: keep advertised filters in memory
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2026 11:08:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260212100843.883623-8-christian.couder@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260212100843.883623-1-christian.couder@gmail.com>
Currently, advertised filters are only kept in memory temporarily
during parsing, or persisted to disk if `promisor.storeFields`
contains 'partialCloneFilter'.
In a following commit though, we will add a `--filter=auto` option.
This option will enable the client to use the filters that the server
is suggesting for the promisor remotes the client accepts.
To use them even if `promisor.storeFields` is not configured, these
filters should be stored somewhere for the current session.
Let's add an `advertised_filter` field to `struct promisor_remote`
for that purpose.
To ensure that the filters are available in all cases,
filter_promisor_remote() captures them into a temporary list and
applies them to the `promisor_remote` structs after the potential
configuration reload.
Then the accepted remotes are marked as `accepted` in the repository
state. This ensures that subsequent calls to look up accepted remotes
(like in the filter construction below) actually find them.
In a following commit, we will add a `--filter=auto` option that will
enable a client to use the filters suggested by the server for the
promisor remotes the client accepted.
To enable the client to construct a filter spec based on these filters,
let's also add a `promisor_remote_construct_filter(repo)` function.
This function:
- iterates over all accepted promisor remotes in the repository,
- collects the filters advertised for them (using `advertised_filter`
added in this commit, and
- generates a single filter spec for them.
