(I am doing it just for one year and a half, that's OK) Welcome back! Sorry to be a bit slow on the review. I've read through and commented on patch 10. Some of my comments were "I'll have to see how this plays out later in the series", so you may want to hold off on responding until I read the rest. :) > If serious: > In this patch we remove cat-file formatting logic and reuse ref-filter > logic there.

I'm still concerned that this is going to regress the performance of cat-file noticeably without some big cleanups in ref-filter. Here are timings on linux.git before and after your patches: [before] $ time git cat-file --unordered --batch-all-objects --batch-check >/dev/null real 0m16.602s user 0m15.545s sys 0m0.495s [after] $ time git cat-file --unordered --batch-all-objects --batch-check >/dev/null real 0m27.301s user 0m24.549s sys 0m2.752s I don't think that's anything particularly wrong with your patches. It's the existing strategy of ref-filter (in particular how it is very eager to allocate lots of separate strings). And it may be too early to switch cat-file over to it. > I also have a question about site https://git-scm.com/docs/ > I thought it is updated automatically based on Documentation folder in > the project, but it is not true.

Yeah, as Eric noted, we only build docs for the tagged releases. In theory it would be easy to just build the tip of master nightly, but the data model for the site would need quite a bit of adjustment. -Peff
