This replaces the repository param.
This allows more flexiblity as sometimes we have highlight content
not related to repository. Sometimes we know ahead of time the language
of the content. Lastly language determination seems better fit as a
logic in the Blob class.
`repository` param is only used to determine the language, which seems
to be the responsiblity of Blob.
Sherlock will be a new GitLab specific tool for measuring the
performance of Rails requests (and SideKiq jobs at some point). Some of
the things that are currently tracked:
* SQL queries along with their timings, backtraces and query plans
(using "EXPLAIN ANALYZE" for PostgreSQL and regular "EXPLAIN" for
MySQL)
* Timings of application files (including views) on a per line basis
* Some meta data such as the request method, path, total duration, etc
More tracking (e.g. Rugged or gitlab-shell timings) might be added in
the future.
Sherlock will replace any existing tools we have used so far (e.g.
active_record_query_trace and rack-mini-profiler), hence the
corresponding Gems have been removed from the Gemfile.
Sherlock can be enabled by starting Rails as following:
ENABLE_SHERLOCK=1 bundle exec rails s
Recorded transactions can be found at `/sherlock/transactions`.
