What you remember might be this one: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/31351/focus=31610 Even if it isn't, it is worth a read. Look for "The creation of a new archive tends to" and "really _has_ to be separate". There was another discussion around this topic as well: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/32040/focus=32108 which I think is a possible design in the right direction, but I did not hear much from the users (as you can see in the archive link above) so it hasn't materialized. The only real improvement that came out of the thread is deletion of a branch at the remote site with "git-push :refs/heads/to-be-removed". Another ancient one is: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/12651/focus=12667 - 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
