Using deltas is an implementation detail, after all. Git already uses two types of compression (zlib on all objects, deltas between objects in packfiles). So just saying "compressing" is actually a bit ambiguous, and I think noting that what we are _actually_ doing right now is delta compression is worthwhile. -Peff - 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
