I just tried to clone git.git with --depth=1 and it cauterizes each branch with two commits (I think that is what depth=1 means -- the latest and one behind it), but it pulled almost the whole repository anyway, and it turns out that "git log v1.4.3-rc1" gives me the full history leading to it. Subsequent "git fetch --depth 99999" makes the branches connected to the root commit, and I am reasonably sure we do not have that many commits, but .git/shallow did not become empty.
I tried a local clone with --depth 2 and it showed two commits in all the branches/DAG. But then doing a pull --depth 4 listed more commits than 4. I didn't look much into this. -aneesh - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
