Supercharging the Git Commit Graph IV: Bloom Filters
This is interesting work.<p>I've never noticed the referenced git operation as being slow.  In my experience,<p><pre><code>    git log -- <path/to/file/or/dir>
</code></pre>
has always seemed instantaneous or nearly so.  It's quick even on code bases that are quite large (years of work from large teams, 10's of thousands of commits).<p>Maybe data and performance information on before vs. after bloom filters would help clarify the specific design goals.<p>I love seeing bloom filters in use in widely-used software in real life, in any case!
