This is about making it usable with ease without the user having to worry about "oh, I was about to shoot myself in the foot by running repack; it is good that I remembered objects in this repository are borrowed by other repositories" and things like that. For the purpose of "a bit more sanity" topic, adding new things users have to worry about to the mix, e.g. "what happens if my network goes away? I can afford not to have access to these kinds of objects for a while, but I must always have access to those objects, so I can borrow the former but not the latter", is going in the other way. The ideas in your messages are *not* useless. Enhancements along those lines may be useful, but they do not fit in the same discussion of making the current mechanism simmpler and easier for users to use the mechanism in a safe and sane way. -- 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
