Thanks for following up on this! I think all of the patches here are moving in a good direction. I think there's a philosophical question about whether some of the functions should be taking the minimum set of fields from upload_pack_data, or just the whole struct. But seeing the opportunities for cleanup near the end, especially around little flags, I think passing the big struct around (like you've done here) is probably the best choice. > While there are still a lot of static variables at the top of > 'upload-pack.c' after this patch series, it does a lot of ground work > and a number of cleanups. Yeah, I think all of use_thin_pack, use_ofs_delta, etc, should be easy conversions on top (and will really give us the payoff). -Peff
