According to this calculation the waste is 47808782 bytes, or about 45.6 MiB, for 8-spaces-wide tabs.
I concede my calculation was crude. Interestingly, modifying my calculation to look for tabs at the beginning of the line gives a similar result: # calculates the extra space required to # use the given number of spaces/tab. size() { count=`grep -RIo "^\`printf \"\t\"\`" . | wc -l`; perl -e "print $count*$(($1-1))/1024/1024 . \" MiB\n\""; } size 8; => 49.7416791915894 MiB and for git: size 8; => 1.25082969665527 MiB Anyway, thanks for the neat script. mfwitten - 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
