I think that's a misconception. Packfiles that are marked with .keep files should never be deleted. There are, afaik, no rules against packing the same objects into other packfiles as well. This is nifty for dumb ref walkers, as they can use a small pack for incremental fetching while using a mega-pack for initial cloning. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@xxxxxx OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 -- 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
