Hey, thanks for this report. I can confirm this with git.git and the
following commands:
git fast-export --all --reencode=yes --signed-tags=verbatim --tag-of-filtered-object=drop >$TMP/git.fe
cd $TMP && rm -fr test-repo && git init test-repo &&
(cd test-repo && /usr/bin/time git fast-import --export-marks=$TMP/git.marks < $TMP/git.fe &&
/usr/bin/time git fast-import --import-marks=$TMP/git.marks < $TMP/git.fe)
The latter fast-import command gets killed with SIGKILL due to using 16
GiB of memory, which I would agree is unreasonable.
It looks like with Junio's patch at
<xmqqeeqto4x1.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, the memory usage is down to
1.4 GiB, which considering that a pack must be written, is much more
reasonable.
