IB> In my repo the placeholders change too often (in 1/4 commits). I'm IB> thinking of using: IB> 'git config --unset "svn-remote.$repo_id.added-placeholder" path_regex' IB> instead of full rewrite. I need your help. There are still problems: $ grep "define MAX_MATCHES" ~/builds/git/git-git/config.c #define MAX_MATCHES 8192 $ grep added-placeholder .git/config | wc -l 4430 1/4 commits change the list of placeholders, usually 1 folder changes. Clearing and re-adding the entries to the config takes ~1 minute. Pressing Ctrl-C at this time makes the list incomplete. Re-adding all entries using 'config --add' is slow. Does Git::config package have tools to modify multiple entries at once? I wonder why 'git config --get-all' is used instead of some Git::config routine. Otherwise, to make this atomic, I think, the modification should be made to a backup config file, then it should replace .git/config (or rewrite it with signals blocked). How to determine GIT_DIR from Fetcher.pm? maybe I can simply append a duplicate section '[svn-remote "svn"]'. But then I would need to escape the values myself. Also, git --unset-all leaves one empty section: '[svn-remote "svn"]' Is it a bug? -- -- 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
