That's fine -- unless some other part of git > already has pulled the whole commit tree into memory ... Good call. However, I would have expected the normal case to be that we haven't even parsed the parent yet (as per the comment), so the parent normally shouldn't even have the parent pointer (due to not having been parsed). So what was it that triggered this "parents had already been parsed" situation? Is it because we've generated a huge list of "I have it" objects when pulling? That would explain it..
