There actually were a few incompatible ones but they were only during the first few weeks of life (the beginning of time is Apr 7th, 2005): - The tree object was originally a flat "manifest" but was converted to hierarchy of trees (Apr 10th, 2005) - The metainformation directory was originally called .dircache, but renamedto ".git" (Apr 11th, 2005) - The order of compression and hashing was swapped and older objects needed conversion (Apr 20, 2005) - 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
