fix(server): reuse index stat cache for checkpoints - #10725
Conversation

ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — The production checkpoint path now uses a new, nontrivial Git index cache-seeding algorithm with timestamp handling and multiple special-case fallbacks, changing how existing captures process tracked files. Extensive tests cover the intended semantics, but the interaction with Git index modes and the runtime processing gate warrants human review. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules.

740-796: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winExtract the index-seeding block into a named helper.
captureCheckpointnow holds a 57-line nested generator with five independent bail conditions, a file copy, an mtime restore, and a reset. The surrounding function also owns temp-index setup,add -A, tree creation, commit creation, and ref publication. Move the block into a helper such asseedTempIndexFromUserIndex(input.cwd, tempIndexPath, commitEnv)that returns the boolean. The capture flow then reads as seed-or-fallback, and each bail condition becomes testable in isolation.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

Effect.optionmaps every failure in the block toNone, so a genuine environment fault is indistinguishable from an intentional bail. A failedcopyFile, a failedutimes, or a failingread-tree --resetsilently degrades every capture to the slow path with no signal. Annotate the current span or log at debug level with the reason before the fallback runs. The intentional bail conditions already returnfalse, so a separate error branch stays cheap.♻️ Sketch: distinguish bail from failure

What Changed
Seed the temporary checkpoint index from the current worktree's index, then use a single-tree
read-tree --reset HEADto reuse matching stat entries without borrowing the user's staged snapshot. The scopedgit add -A -- ., tree/commit creation, and checkpoint ref publication stay unchanged.Preserve the source index timestamp so copying cannot hide racy-clean edits. Use the previous fresh-index path for sparse/split indexes, assume-unchanged/skip-worktree entries, truncated listings, unavailable indexes, or failed seeding. Unborn repositories keep the existing empty-index behavior. The real index is never modified.
Why
A fresh
read-tree HEADdiscards the stat cache, forcing checkpoint staging to reread unchanged tracked files. On a Linux workspace with 32,981 tracked files (448 MB), staging initially took 66.9 seconds and exceeded the existing 30-second timeout.Related to #3646. Alternative to #8301: reuse Git's index cache rather than parse changed paths and introduce binary process I/O plumbing. This does not address failure backoff or temporary-pack cleanup, and intentionally does not accelerate special-index fallback cases.
