What does this PR try to resolve?

When profiling Zed (#14238), a major factor in their no-op run times is git patches and git dependencies. The slowest operation for each git source is running du. This is extraneous for a couple of reasons

  • GC isn't stable, slowing people down for a feature they aren't using
  • Size tracking was expected to be lazy, only reading sizes when the GC is configured for size, while this was eager
  • Git checkouts are immutable but we check on every load
  • This optimized for "while filesystem caches are warm" from a checkout operation when checkout operations are rare compared to all of the other commands run on a working directory.

This removes the du, relying on the lazy loading that happens in update_null_sizes.

For Zed, this removed about 40ms total from the runtime. While by itself, this is below the threshold of being noticed,

  • It adds up if any editor integrations are calling cargo metadata a lot
  • Over time, small gains like this will add up

How should we test and review this PR?

When profiling Zed (rust-lang#14238), a major factor in their no-op run times
is git patches and git dependencies.  The slowest operation for each git
source is running `du`.  This is extraneous for a couple of reasons
- GC isn't stable, slowing people down for a feature they aren't using
- Size tracking was expected to be lazy, only reading sizes when the GC
  is configured for size, while this was eager
- Git checkouts are immutable but we check on every load
- This optimized for "while filesystem caches are warm" from a checkout
  operation when checkout operations are rare compared to all of the other
  commands run on a working directory.

This removes the `du`, relying on the lazy loading that happens in
`update_null_sizes`.

Seems good. I don't recall, but it looks like this was not working as intended. It should have only run du when the checkout was created, not every time it was loaded. I think it's fine to move forward with this. If we ever want to optimize for size, we can always consider a different approach.
