Debugging one protocol extension a week is painful enough ;-) And tellme-more does not send _every_ commit. The sender asks only about the refs it does not know about, and the receiver sends densely near the tip and then walks sparsely as it goes deeper, so the traffic wouldn't be so bad. Latency might be a different story, though. -- 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
