There's probably no interest in partial merge now, but if narrow clone comes, index will be also narrowed and at least fast-forward merge should work. I think it may work, but I'm not sure. unpack_callback() and traverse_trees() look like magic to me. There may be some interactions between index and unpacked trees that make partial merge fail in a subtle way. -- Duy -- 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
