Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to This change speeds up version calculation on repositories with many tags by walking history once and reusing the result. The version computed is intended to stay the same. The earlier maintainability concern about an overly complex graph-traversal method has been addressed by splitting it into smaller helpers.

Version calculation asks `IRepositoryStore.GetCommitLog` for the commits between a base version source and the current commit once per candidate version tag. Every one of those calls ran a full `Topological | Time` revision walk, so the work scaled as O(tags x commits). On a repository with ~1.6k tags and ~3.3k commits, evaluating a pull request merge head spent over nine minutes in `TaggedCommitVersionStrategy` alone, almost all of it inside repeated revision walks. The commits reachable from the current commit cannot change while a single version is calculated, so the walk is now performed once and projected into `CommitGraph`, an in-memory adjacency list. A commit log is produced from that graph by removing the base version source and its ancestors. The commits reachable from the head but not from the base are closed under taking children, so no child of a retained commit is removed and the result contains exactly the commits a walk which hides the base returns. The graph covers the unfiltered history on purpose. Dropping ignored commits from it would sever the parent links through which the ancestors of a base commit are reached, so ignore rules are applied as a mask when the commit log is produced instead. `IncrementStrategyFinder` additionally removed the ancestors of every already tagged commit from each commit log. That set does not depend on the base version source (ancestors of a tagged commit which is itself an ancestor of the base are removed by the base anyway), so it is now hoisted into a mask computed once per tag configuration and passed to a new `GetCommitLog` overload. Unlike the base version source, that walk stops at ignored commits, which is what the dictionary based pruning did. The set of tagged SHAs is cached as well, keeping a null label distinct from an empty one because a null label matches every pre-release label while an empty one does not. `TaggedSemanticVersionRepository` now caches the `ILookup` it hands out instead of rebuilding it on every call. Ordering is preserved where it is defined. Commits which share a committer timestamp are ordered by the revision walk through the shape of its priority queue, which changes when commits are hidden, so the derived log can order them differently. Consolidating increments does not depend on the order, but `GetIncrementForCommits` stops at the first commit which resets the accumulated bump. The optimized path is therefore only taken when no reachable commit resets the bump; otherwise the original walk per base version source is used. The existing `GetCommitLog` overload is untouched and still performs one walk per call, so external callers see no behavioural change at all. Measured on a repository with 1632 tags, 514 branches and a detached pull request merge head, with an unchanged configuration: before 110.5 s 5945 revision walks after 9.9 s 1 revision walk The resulting version and the complete 6597 line decision log are byte for byte identical before and after the change.

Description
Version calculation asked
IRepositoryStore.GetCommitLogfor the commits between a base version source and the current commit once per candidate version tag, and every one of those calls ran a fullTopological | Timerevision walk. The work therefore scaled asO(tags x commits).The commits reachable from the current commit cannot change while a single version is calculated, so the walk is now performed once and projected into
CommitGraph, an in-memory adjacency list (the commits in walk order, a SHA to index map, and anint[][]parent list). A commit log is produced from that graph by removing the base version source and its ancestors.That selection is exact: the commits reachable from the head but not from the base are closed under taking children, so no child of a retained commit is ever removed, and the result contains exactly the commits a walk which hides the base returns.
Three further changes:
IncrementStrategyFinderremoved every already tagged commit and all of its ancestors from each commit log. That set does not depend on the base version source, because the ancestors of a tagged commit which is itself an ancestor of the base are removed by the base anyway. It is now computed once per tag configuration and passed to a newGetCommitLogoverload. Unlike the base version source, that walk stops at ignored commits, which is what the dictionary based pruning did. The set of tagged SHAs is cached as well, keeping anulllabel distinct from an empty one, because anulllabel matches every pre-release label while an empty one does not.TaggedSemanticVersionRepositorynow caches theILookupit hands out instead of rebuilding it on every call.A note on ordering
Commits which share a committer timestamp are ordered by the revision walk through the shape of its priority queue, and that shape changes when commits are hidden, so a derived log can order such commits differently from a native hiding walk.
I verified this rather than assuming it: over randomly generated histories in which every commit carries an identical timestamp, 100 of 375 derived logs differed in order from the native walk, while the set of commits was identical in every single case.
Consolidating increments does not depend on order, but
GetIncrementForCommitsstops at the first commit which resets the accumulated version bump. The optimized path is therefore only taken when no reachable commit resets the bump; otherwise the original walk per base version source is used. On the repository which motivated this change that guard costs nothing, because it contains no=semver:commit at all.The existing
GetCommitLogoverload is untouched and still performs one walk per call, so existing callers, includingVersionCalculatorBase, see no behavioural change whatsoever.Related Issue

Motivation and Context
On a repository with 1632 tags, 514 branches and a detached pull request merge head, GitVersion took over 10 minutes on a GitHub hosted runner. Repositories which tag every CI build reach this point quickly, and the version calculation ends up dominating the pipeline.
How Has This Been Tested?
Differential testing against the walk which is being replaced. New tests compare the derived commit log against a real
Topological | Timerevision walk for every base version source in a branched and merged repository, including:Every new test was checked to fail against a deliberately broken implementation before being kept, so they are real regression tests rather than tautologies. Two bugs were found and fixed that way while preparing this change: severing the parent links at ignored commits, and an exclusion mask which was shared between the two kinds of ancestor walk.
End to end on the repository which motivated the change, with an unchanged configuration:
The resulting version and the complete 6597 line
Normalverbosity decision log are byte for byte identical before and after the change.Test suite.
GitVersion.Core.Tests: 36453 of 36455 pass. The two failures areDualBackendParityTests.WorktreeBehavesIdenticallyOnBothBackendsand the wall clock assertion inPerformanceScenarios.RepositoryWithALotOfTags; both reproduce identically on unmodifiedmainon the same machine, which was under heavy load at the time.Notes for reviewers
Two deliberate judgement calls which you may want to steer:
IRepositoryStore. It is additive and the existing overload is unchanged, but it is source breaking for anyone implementing the interface. If that is not acceptable, the overload can move to an internal abstraction implemented byRepositoryStore; happy to rework it that way.IIgnoreConfigurationand of the excluded SHA set, which is documented on the overload ("the set must not be modified after it has been passed in"). Value based keys would require hashing the set contents on every call, which is precisely the per call cost this change removes.Checklist:
