Hi everyone, Is there a quick way to reproduce the effect of a shallow clone on a local repository that doesn't involve filter-branch and/or re-clone? My motivation is to reduce the local size of repositories I'm only following, by trimming the history without prejudice to a [N] set of last commits. It feels stupid that the quickest way I'm aware of right now to achieve this is to "git clone --depth N ..." again. filter-branch is ridiculously slow, as it iterates through history. I've tried using graft points, but the combination of: echo [sha] > .git/info/grafts git reflog expire --expire=0 --all git repack -Ad doesn't really save any space and/or reduce the object count as I would expect. It means there's probably still reachable? I'd really love to have a 'git thin [depth]' subcommand to perform the above however. I don't really want to have to iterate through refs just to check if they are still reachable within [n] commits just to delete them. Thanks for any pointer. -- 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
