Hi, i've recently reinstalled a fresh system (fc20-beta) on my workstation and observing a big slowdown on git cherry-pick operation (git-1.8.4.2-1). the previous centos installation with an old git version works faster (few seconds per cherry pick). now the same operation takes >1 min. my git repo isn't very big[1] but it's checked out on the linear lvm where random i/o generally hurts and strace shows that current git version performs 2x{lstat}+1x{open,read,close} [2] on whole checkout before cherry-pick. there is also a .gitattributes searching on all levels which doing another tons of i/o. looks like git-status on action but why on whole repo while cherry-pick touches limited set of files? is it a bug or feature? BR, Paweł. please CC me on reply.
