[PATCH/RFC 3/3] git-gui: Do not suggest a gc if gc --auto would not do it

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In particular, if the user has set gc.auto to 0 or some other value,
respect that setting.

The gui-specific heuristic of assuming Windows filesystems will
tolerate fewer loose objects has been carried over.

This patch vastly increases the loose object count threshold for a
sort of compatibility with the console-based git programs.  The ideal
threshold may be different since the user can easily turn down an
offer to gc.  But for now, let us assume that a number of loose
objects that is tolerable when working from the command line will also
be tolerable in the gui.

Unfortunately, this duplicates code from builtin-gc.c.  A proper fix
would be involve teaching gc to cooperate with the gui more closely.
