[PATCH] Add --no-reuse-delta option to git-gc

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This allows the user to regenerate the deltas in packs while doing
a git-gc.  The user could just run git-repack -a -d -f -l after
running git-gc, but then the first git-repack run by git-gc is
a bit of waste.
