This might be related to some sort of system cache, which can fit indices of +smaller repos but of Linux kernel. To work around this problem, you can instruct +[gitstatus](https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus) to not scan dirty files on repos with over 4k +files in the index (see `GITSTATUS_DIRTY_MAX_INDEX_SIZE` in +[gitstatus docs](https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus). Linux kernel is the only repo in these +benchmarks that is affected by this setting. Its prompt latency goes down to 32 ms. The prompt no +longer shows whether there are dirty (unstaged or untracked) files but it does indicate with the +color that there _might_ be such files. + ## What's the catch? Really, there is no catch. It's literally the same prompt with the same flexibility |
