    <h2>What I need</h2> <p>a fast/performant way to open any file under a large (<code>git</code>) repo (~9.8k files).</p> <h2>Context</h2> <p>I have tried various solutions, like <a href="http://www.emacswiki.org/TextMate" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>Textmate.el</code></a> and <a href="http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/find-file-in-repository" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>find-file-in-repository</code></a>. I found these solutions via previous SO questions like <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/q/8552659/117750">this</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/q/7970537/117750">this</a> and through the <a href="http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/LocateFilesAnywhere" rel="nofollow noreferrer">LocateFilesAnywhere EmacsWiki</a>.</p> <p>While both solutions work wonderfully for small-to-mdeium repos, in this case they are practically unusable. When I start typing a filename, there's a delay of several seconds before I see any result. And changing any part of the search is very laggy too.</p> <p>I think the main problem is that on typing any character, <code>emacs</code>/<code>find-file-in-repository</code> starts a shell command (<code>git ls-files...</code>). I really only need to do that when I have stopped typing.</p> <h2>Questions</h2> <ul> <li>is there a better library out there for this use-case?</li> <li>if not, how can I introduce a delay into the command when I'm typing? i.e. while I'm in <code>find-file-in-repository</code>, I want the find-command to be invoked only when I stop typing (let's say a gap of 300ms).</li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
