Just a note that we've been running with this at GitHub on all of our servers for a bit over a week, and no screaming yet. That's not necessarily proof of anything, but it does make the audience of "people" a bit bigger than just "next", as we run quite a few invocations of pack-objects in a day. I don't think that changes anything in the near future, since this is obviously not for v2.10, but barring any complaints, it's probably a reasonable topic to consider for the version after (and of course I'll relay any issues we come across on our servers). I'm planning to deploy the delta-cache topic soon, too, so that should give it some good exercise. -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
