Can you elaborate about any performance differences, especially with
cygwin? Does this make git perform reasonably on Windows, or are the
performance problems as bad as with cygwin?
I do not know about cygwin recently (else than it was slow), but I
cloned my packed git repository of all 117 2.6 linux kernels and
the "git diff" rocks on it.
git-unpack and git-repack was slow as hell, though. Maybe this
is the part to be improved. Mostly bad I/Os...
gitk really shouldn't use either. It should probably use
git-show-ref -h -d
instead, which has the same output format (modulo a space vs tab issue),
and is entirely local, with no silly unnecessary remote connext.
Something like this patch.
Does that work on mingw too?
I'll try that tomorrow, but you'll have other reporting about it, for sure.
