I think it would be saner to give git-hash-object an operation mode that makes it usable as a pipe-controlled daemon, so that one needs not fork and exec for interning another object. That way, porcelain commands could keep one bidirectional pipe (feed object type and source and whether to use -w into git-hash-project, receive object id) to git-hash-object around until they finish. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
