When working on a difference algorithm's implementation, its generally
more important to care about how it behaves on real-world inputs than
it does on fake inputs created for unit test cases. Run each
implementation against a number of real-world repositories, looking at
changes between files in each commit. This gives a better picture of
how a particular algorithm performs.
This test suite run against JGit and linux-2.6 with the current
available algorithms shows HistogramDiff always out-performs
MyersDiff, and by a wide margin on the linux-2.6 sources. As
HistogramDiff has similar output properties as PatienceDiff, the
resulting edits are probably also more human-readable. These test
results show that HistogramDiff is a good choice for the default
implementation, and also show that PatienceDiff isn't worth keeping.

Large objects stored as deltas get unpacked by JGit into a loose
object, so they are cheaper to access later on. This unpacking was
broken because TeeInputStream copied the wrong length into the loose
object, sometimes copying too many bytes into the result. This
created a loose object that did not have the correct content, and
whose length did not match the length denoted in the object header.

Application code, including unit tests for storage implementations,
should not extend RevCommit outside of the scope of using it for a
RevWalk. Its a lot of overhead and unlikely to work long-term.
Instead for the one test that matters, use a custom subclass of the
ObjectId type. This lets us measure exactly what we are looking for,
which is that the subclass isn't retained.
A lot of other tests were unnecessarily wrapping an object with a
RevCommit and storing that back into the RefUpdate. This is just
retesting what the earlier no-cache test was doing, and complicated
the test considerably. Drop that code and just rely on the value that
was configured by the helper method.

Projects like org.eclipse.mdt contain large XML files about 6 MiB
in size. So does the Android project platform/frameworks/base.
Doing a clone of either project with JGit takes forever to checkout
the files into the working directory, because delta decompression
tends to be very expensive as we need to constantly reposition the
base stream for each copy instruction. This can be made worse by
a very bad ordering of offsets, possibly due to an XML editor that
doesn't preserve the order of elements in the file very well.
Increasing the threshold to the same limit PackWriter uses when
doing delta compression (50 MiB) permits a default configured
JGit to decompress these XML file objects using the faster
random-access arrays, rather than re-seeking through an inflate
stream, significantly reducing checkout time after a clone.
Since this new limit may be dangerously close to the JVM maximum
heap size, every allocation attempt is now wrapped in a try/catch
so that JGit can degrade by switching to the large object stream
mode when the allocation is refused. It will run slower, but the
operation will still complete.
The large stream mode will run very well for big objects that aren't
delta compressed, and is acceptable for delta compressed objects that
are using only forward referencing copy instructions. Copies using
prior offsets are still going to be horrible, and there is nothing
we can do about it except increase core.streamFileThreshold.
We might in the future want to consider changing the way the delta
generators work in JGit and native C Git to avoid prior offsets once
an object reaches a certain size, even if that causes the delta
instruction stream to be slightly larger. Unfortunately native
C Git won't want to do that until its also able to stream objects
rather than malloc them as contiguous blocks.

HistogramDiff is an alternative implementation of patience diff,
performing a search over all matching locations and picking the
longest common subsequence that has the lowest occurrence count.
If there are unique common elements, its behavior is identical to
that of patience diff.
Actual performance on real-world source files usually beats
MyersDiff, sometimes by a factor of 3, especially for complex
comparators that ignore whitespace.

This is the test suite I was using to help understand why we had
such a high collision rate with RawTextComparator, and to select
a replacement function.
Since its not something we will run very often, lets make it a
program in the debug package rather than a JUnit test. This way
we can run it on demand against any corpus of files we choose,
but we aren't bottlenecking our daily builds running tests with
no assertions.
Adding a new hash function to this suite is simple, just define
a new instance member of type "Hash" with the logic applied to
the region passed in.

The hash code returned by RawTextComparator (or that is used
by the SimilarityIndex) play an important role in the speed of
any algorithm that is based upon them. The lower the number of
collisions produced by the hash function, the shorter the hash
chains within hash tables will be, and the less likely we are to
fall into O(N^2) runtime behaviors for algorithms like PatienceDiff.
Our prior hash function was absolutely horrid, so replace it with
the proper definition of the DJB hash that was originally published
by Professor Daniel J. Bernstein.
To support this assertion, below is a table listing the maximum
number of collisions that result when hashing the unique lines in
each source code file of 3 randomly chosen projects:
test_jgit: 931 files; 122 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 418
djb 5
sha1 6
string_hash31 11
test_linux26: 30198 files; 258 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 8675
djb 32
sha1 8
string_hash31 32
test_frameworks_base: 8381 files; 184 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 4615
djb 10
sha1 6
string_hash31 13
We can clearly see that prior_hash performed very poorly, resulting
in 8,675 collisions (elements in the same hash bucket) for at least
one file in the Linux kernel repository. This leads to some very
bad O(N) style insertion and lookup performance, even though the
hash table was sized to be the next power-of-2 larger than the
total number of unique lines in the file.
The djb hash we are replacing prior_hash with performs closer to
SHA-1 in terms of having very few collisions. This indicates it
provides a reasonably distributed output for this type of input,
despite being a much simpler algorithm (and therefore will be much
faster to execute).
The string_hash31 function is provided just to compare results with,
it is the algorithm commonly used by java.lang.String hashCode().
However, life isn't quite this simple.
djb produces a 32 bit hash code, but our hash tables are always
smaller than 2^32 buckets. Mashing the 32 bit code into an array
index used to be done by simply taking the lower bits of the hash
code by a bitwise and operator. This unfortuntely still produces
many collisions, e.g. 32 on the linux-2.6 repository files.
From [1] we can apply a final "cleanup" step to the hash code to
mix the bits together a little better, and give priority to the
higher order bits as they include data from more bytes of input:
test_jgit: 931 files; 122 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 418
djb 5
djb + cleanup 6
test_linux26: 30198 files; 258 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 8675
djb 32
djb + cleanup 7
test_frameworks_base: 8381 files; 184 avg. unique lines/file
Algorithm | Collisions
-------------+-----------
prior_hash 4615
djb 10
djb + cleanup 7
This is a massive improvement, as the number of collisions for
common inputs drops to acceptable levels, and we haven't really
made the hash functions any more complex than they were before.
