I just pulled from Linus's linux-2.6.git tree knowing there was a bit of activity over the past day: Generating pack... Done counting 446 objects. Deltifying 446 objects. 100% (446/446) done Unpacking 446 objects Total 446, written 446 (delta 235), reused 0 (delta 0) 100% (446/446) done * refs/heads/origin: fast forward to branch 'master' of master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6 from f4ffaa452e71495a06376f12f772342bc57051fc to 6b426e785cb81e53dc2fc4dcf997661472b470ef Updating from f4ffaa452e71495a06376f12f772342bc57051fc to 6b426e785cb81e53dc2fc4dcf997661472b470ef Fast forward MAINTAINERS | 4 ++++ 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) I got 446 objects and this amounted to just a 4 line change to the MAINTAINERS file? :-) If I do a "gitk ORIG_HEAD.." all the changes are there, just the diffstat it spits out during the pull is weird.
