I mean: > will it consider the pack as "already pack" and let it as-is, without > deltification, or will it get a chance to actually repack efficiently? gc does "repack -A" so all separate packs will be merged. It may delay gc time though because it'll take more time to hit the loose object limit. I think pack-objects will try to deltify so we're good. If we produce bad deltas in --bulk then that's another story because pack-objects will try to blindly reuse them. -- Duy -- 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
