* "git fetch" between repositories with hundreds of refs. $gmane/39330 There are partial rewrite of the most expensive parts of git-fetch in C parked in 'pu'. It might be good enough for public consumption without going the whole nine yards. I dunno. I am not very keen on rewriting all of "git fetch" in C right now, as people seem to be still interested in touching it (including "git bundle" topic).
The current changes in jc/fetch take things from "unusable" to "a bit slow", which I think could quite easily be considered a separate task from "a bit slow" to "something that even Linus would consider reasonable". So my opinion would be to get the current improvements in so that they can be combined with the other good work happening in this area, and wait for things to settle before going the last mile (after all anyone converting from Subversion or CVS probably won't find 30s to be slow anyway ... ;)).
I would be happy to work on this if you would rather spend your time on more generally useful things ...
