Hi, I have a central, shared Git repository on an NFS drive at path $central. I have added "$central/objects" to $central/objects/info/alternates. I see that when I clone this repository with Git 1.6.1, the alternates file is automatically copied to the clone, but so are all the pack files and loose objects. If I then cd to the clone and run 'git gc', it removes the redundant local objects. I thought I tested this setup a few months back, and 'git clone' automatically used the alternates file to avoid copying the redundant objects into the clone. Has this behavior changed, or is my memory bad?
