Make CheckForIncludeGuards ~100x faster

This takes CheckForIncludeGuards from being the most expensive presubmit
to being quite unremarkable.

CheckForIncludeGuards uses "if not f.OldContents()" to see whether a
file is new or not. It turns out that this is a fairly expensive
function. At the very least it has to retrieve the contents of the old
file and then call .splitlines() on it, which is a lot of work when all
that matters is whether the file exists or not.

A faster DoesOldContentsExist() function would be nice but is not even
needed because the check that follows is almost never True. So,
reversing the order of the checks gets rid of ~99.9% of the calls to
OldContents(), thus taking CheckForIncludeGuards()'s execution time when
run on all files from about 50 minutes to about half a minute.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure .

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
