If not set, defaults to core.compression. If that is not > set, defaults to 0 (best speed). The default, -1, is the zlib default, which is probably something like 3-6. Setting these to 1 will probably result in less compression, not more. -bcd - 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
