on the other hand, it would be a good thing if pack files could be cached.

in a peer-peer git environment the cache would not be used very much, but when you have a large number of people tracking a central repository (or even a pseudo-central one like the kernel) you have a lot of people upgrading from one point to the next point.


Worth noting that this also applies to the raw git protocol.

IIRC the native git server will use existing packs when it can.


Yes (and the smart http server should, too). However, neither of them can currently generate new packfiles and save them for future use in a separate directory from the repository tree.
