Could you draft a patch to ReleaseNotes to explain the consequences of these changes using ordinary user's vocabulary, like: Starting v1.5.5, repack.usedeltabaseoffset will default to true, which will give denser packfile (i.e. more efficient storage). The downside is that git older than version X will not be able to use a repository packed using this setting. - 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
