That would be a shallow repository, as is already supported by "git clone --depth 100". It can be useful for a number of things, for example developing simple patches on top of HEAD and sending them somewhere. What the OP might want is a way to convert a full repository into a shallow one (can be done by cloning and deleting the original), and then be able to make it shallower from time to time, to limit it to 100 revisions; not sure if that is possible. jlh -- 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
