Any chance you can split it into smaller repositories, or remove files from working directory (e.g. if you store logs, you don't have to keep logs from all time in working directory, they can be retrieved from history). > I added a 'git read-tree HEAD' before the git-add, and a 'git write-tree' > after the add.

The > read-tree/add/write-tree each took about a second. read-tree destroys stat info in index, refreshing 100k entries in index in this case may take some time. Try this to see if commit time reduces and how much time update-index takes read-tree HEAD update-index --refresh add .... write-tree commit -q > As an experiment, I also tried removing the 'git read-tree' and just > having the git-write-tree.

What I'm trying to do is to determine how much time each operation in commit may take. -- 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
