test refactoring geometry_git to use vcs_info #245

Closed jedahan closed 5 years ago

jedahan commented 5 years ago

vcs_info might be faster, might be slower.

How can we benchmark it?

Even if its 20% slower, does it help reduce complexity?

Define a set of large and smaller repos and maybe use zprof?

This is a tradeoff I'm willing to have if it's maintainable for us and usable at the same time. It might not even be fast by default but configurable to be fast - e.g. the user disables certain features if they want speed.
