commitctx: document a fast path in _filecommit
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

This block cut off a lot of logic, documenting the why and how seems useful to
future reader.

This is part of a larger refactoring/cleanup of the commitctx code to clarify
and augment the logic gathering metadata useful for copy tracing. The current
code is a tad too long and entangled to make such update easy. We start with
easy and small cleanup.

I tried to copyedit this comment, but it's still somewhat self-contradictory. I'm also completely lost on the first clause ("This block fast path most comparison") - could you take a fresh start on this comment (and maybe spend more words on it?) and/or ask someone else to help interactively?

(I also see that line 2182 looks like you marked the comment resolved but didn't actually update the code?)

This comment still needs some work.

What work do you want to see? (this comment exists because I tried to be nice after reading the code, If this is delaying this series further, we can drop it).

I understand your efforts here. I mean it's still confusing for a non-native like me.

This block fast path most comparisons which are usually done. It assumes that bare filectx is used and no merge happened, hence no need to create a new file revision in this case.

Shall I reword it to above in flight?

Also, it's not blocking the series since I already queued some of later ones.

Reads good to me. Go ahead with the rephrasing.
