Pushing Git repos over the speed limit. – Luca Milanesio, GerritForge
GerritForge, Google, SAP, and the JGit community have been tirelessly working for many years to improve the performance of Git repositories over time. This is driven by the increased hunger for more refs, more BLOBs, and crazily increased data volatility caused by the adoption of AI in the software development lifecycle.
Luca will present the journey so far and how GerritForge has contributed to pushing Git repositories over the boundaries and speed limits previously imposed by the constraints of the data format:
● The techniques used to generate massive workloads of traffic and simulate real-life usage of a repository
● Measuring performance and progress in the speedup of the Git repositories
● The breakthroughs of the Git repository acceleration
● The latest performance data of the latest 100x warp acceleration achievements of Git repositories on Gerrit and GitLab
What Should Attendees Expect to Learn?
======================================
You can learn more about the internal organisation of Git repositories and the constraints imposed by the initial design of the storage of the Git objects, including refs, packfiles, blobs, indexes, and bitmaps.
You will also learn how to use AI and reinforcement learning to dynamically understand the usage patterns of a Git repository and configure an autonomous AI agent to continuously improve the repository’s organisation based on the real-time telemetry of the Git operations.
