master.kernel.org just upgraded to git-1.5.1.4 and I notice that doing something like this: git clone --bare -n -l -s ../torvalds/linux-2.6.git test-2.6.git is no longer an instantaneous operation, it seems to be doing a lot of stuff now: Initialized empty Git repository in /home/davem/git/test-2.6.git/ remote: Generating pack... remote: Done counting 480025 objects. remote: Deltifying 480025 objects. remote: 100% (480025/480025) done Indexing 480025 objects. remote: Total 480025 (delta 385878), reused 473265 (delta 379369) 100% (480025/480025) done Resolving 385878 deltas. 100% (385878/385878) done Is there a new way to get a quick clone?
