It is already a mature technology, the difference between 2 and 4 are so trivial that it is very unlikely for a latent bug to be hiding in corner cases. It is a different matter if various reimplementations already support the format. You can try it out, and if you find that other tools based on reimplementations of Git you use do not understand the format, you can safely go back with git update-index --index-version 2 after you upgraded to version 4. -- 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
