I'm just running through my final tests on a large-ish patch series which deals with this (among other issues). I had the same thought, though we do already die on a variety of checkout errors. I left it as a die() for now, but I think we should potentially address it with a further patch. > > $ git init non-local && cd non-local && git fetch .. > > remote: Counting objects: 3, done. > > remote: Total 3 (delta 0), reused 3 (delta 0) > > Unpacking objects: 100% (3/3), done. > > fatal: missing blob object 'd95f3ad14dee633a758d2e331151e950dd13e4ed' > > error: .. did not send all necessary objects > > > > we do notice. > > Yes, it is OK to add connectedness check to "git clone". That's in my series, too. Unfortunately, in the local clone case, it slows down the clone considerably (since we otherwise would not have to traverse the objects at all). -Peff -- 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
