But reading Jeff's reply, there seems to be a reason why there isn't an ETA already. However, since some repositories get cloned in the same way very often, there could be some cache that keeps these size information around for any subsequent identical clones. The server could then send a hint about the expected amount of data at the beginning. 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
