[PATCH v3 6/8] gc: add `gc.repackFilter` config option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A previous commit has implemented `git repack --filter=<filter-spec>` to
allow users to filter out some objects from the main pack and move them
into a new different pack.

Users might want to perform such a cleanup regularly at the same time as
they perform other repacks and cleanups, so as part of `git gc`.

Let's allow them to configure a <filter-spec> for that purpose using a
new gc.repackFilter config option.

Now when `git gc` will perform a repack with a <filter-spec> configured
through this option and not empty, the repack process will be passed a
corresponding `--filter=<filter-spec>` argument.
