I'll send those patches in a moment. [1/2]: sha1_file: freshen pack objects before loose [2/2]: sha1_file: only freshen packs once per run > Is there a chance to backport those changes to the 2.2+ branches? That's up to Junio. These patches can be applied straight to the jk/prune-mtime topic. Usually he would then merge the topic up to "maint", which at this would potentially become the next v2.3.x. If an issue is critical (e.g., a security vulnerability), he'll sometimes merge and roll maintenance releases for older versions. But I don't know if this counts as critical (it is for you, certainly, but I don't think that many people are affected, as the crucial factor here is really the slow NFS filesystem operations). -Peff -- 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
