Subject: [PATCH 0/3] scalar: enable built-in FSMonitor

From: "Victoria Dye via GitGitGadget" <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2022 18:07:46 +0000

This series enables the built-in FSMonitor [1] on 'scalar'-registered
repository enlistments. To avoid errors when unregistering an enlistment,
the FSMonitor daemon is explicitly stopped during 'scalar unregister'.

Maintainer's note: this series has a minor conflict with
'vd/scalar-generalize-diagnose'. Please let me know if there's anything else
I can provide (in addition to [2]) that would make resolution easier.

Thanks

[2] The conflict is a result of both series updating the Scalar roadmap doc.
For reference, my merge resolution (from git diff <merge commit> <merge
commit>^1 <merge commit>^2, where <merge commit>^1 is
'vd/scalar-generalize-diagnose' and <merge commit>^2 is this series) looks
like:

  - `scalar-diagnose`: The `scalar` command is taught the `diagnose` subcommand.
  
 +- `scalar-generalize-diagnose`: Move the functionality of `scalar diagnose`

  Roughly speaking (and subject to change), the following series are needed to
  "finish" this initial version of Scalar:
  
- - Finish Scalar features: Enable the built-in FSMonitor in Scalar enlistments
-   and implement `scalar help`. At the end of this series, Scalar should be
-   feature-complete from the perspective of a user.
 -- Generalize features not specific to Scalar: In the spirit of making Scalar
 -  configure only what is needed for large repo performance, move common
 -  utilities into other parts of Git. Some of this will be internal-only, but one
 -  major change will be generalizing `scalar diagnose` for use with any Git
 -  repository.
--
  - Move Scalar to toplevel: Move Scalar out of `contrib/` and into the root of
-   `git`, including updates to build and install it with the rest of Git. This
-   change will incorporate Scalar into the Git CI and test framework, as well as
-   expand regression and performance testing to ensure the tool is stable.
+   `git`. This includes a variety of related updates, including:
+     - building & installing Scalar in the Git root-level 'make [install]'.
+     - builing & testing Scalar as part of CI.
+     - moving and expanding test coverage of Scalar (including perf tests).
+     - implementing 'scalar help'/'git help scalar' to display scalar
+       documentation.
  
  Finally, there are two additional patch series that exist in Microsoft's fork of
  Git, but there is no current plan to upstream them. There are some interesting
