Read previously computed Bloom filters from the commit-graph file if
possible to avoid recomputing during commit-graph write.

See Documentation/technical/commit-graph-format for the format in which
the Bloom filter information is written to the commit graph file.

To read Bloom filter for a given commit with lexicographic position
'i' we need to:
1. Read BIDX[i] which essentially gives us the starting index in BDAT for
   filter of commit i+1. It is essentially the index past the end
   of the filter of commit i. It is called end_index in the code.

2. For i>0, read BIDX[i-1] which will give us the starting index in BDAT
   for filter of commit i. It is called the start_index in the code.
   For the first commit, where i = 0, Bloom filter data starts at the
   beginning, just past the header in the BDAT chunk. Hence, start_index
   will be 0.

3. The length of the filter will be end_index - start_index, because
   BIDX[i] gives the cumulative 8-byte words including the ith
   commit's filter.

We toggle whether Bloom filters should be recomputed based on the
compute_if_null flag.

All right, what is written makes sense for this point in patch series.

But it my opinion it is more important to state that this commit adds
"parsing" of the Bloom filter data from commit-graph file.  This means
that it needs to be calculated only once, then stored in commit-graph,
ready to be re-used.

Nitpick: the flag (the parameter) is called compute_if_not_present, not
compute_if_null.

All right, this explanation is nice and clear.

All right, this finds lexicographical position of the commit following
the chain of incremental commit-graph files, and also check if the
commit-graph fragment that contains the commit in question has Bloom
filter data included.

Wouldn't it be better to be more explicit, and write

  +	if (lex_pos > 0)

All right, here we find start_index and end_index.

It might be good idea to at least assert() that start_index <= end_index,
though that should not happen (that is why I propose for this check to
be compiled on only for debug builds).

All right, nice use of constant.

All right, the limitation that the top layer of incremental commit graph
needs to have Bloom filters enabled for it to be even considered is
reasonable tradeoff, in my opinion.

If it should have filter, return it, otherwise return NULL.

I wonder however when it can return NULL (and whether it should compute
Bloom filters if required instead).

If we have filter from slab, return it.  All right.

However, according to documentation contained in comments in
commit-slab.h, bloom_filter_slab_at() will allocate the location to
store the data, and return freshly allocated memory... fortunately it
uses xcalloc() so returned bloom_filter would have ->len == 0 and
->data == 0.

All right, adding new parameter (changing function signature).

All right, if needed (that is, if '--changed-path' option from the
future commit is provided to 'git commit-graph write'),
compute_bloom_filters() would be called befor write_commit_graph_file(),
which in turn runs write_graph_chunk_bloom_index() and *_data().


Actually, when writing Bloom data chunks (BIDX and BDAT) we could have
requested recomputing filters if necessary: slab storage works as
memoization, so you would calculate Bloom filter data for each commit in
the commit-graph only once.  And write_graph_chunk_bloom_indexes()
and write_graph_chunk_bloom_data() are called only if ctx->changed_paths
is true.

So it would work with

  +		struct bloom_filter *filter = get_bloom_filter(ctx->r, *list, 1);

Only in the future we would really need to call with compute_if_not_present
parameter set to falsy value.

Shouldn't this fixup be added to earlier commit?

I would like to see some tests, but that needs to wait for patch that
adds --changed-paths option to the 'write' subcommand.

Things to be tested:
1. That after reading commit-graph with Bloom filter:
   - that commit(s) in commit-graph have Bloom filter
   - that commits outside commit-graph do not have Bloom filter
2. That incremental commit-graph feature works:
   - for commits in deeper layer that have Bloom filter chunks
   - for commits in deeper layer that do not have Bloom filter chunks

Best,

Good point. Incorporated in v3.
