Couldn't we make repack refuse to repack if it discovered left-overs from a failed repack, or at least make it use the old pack files as reference instead of ignoring them? Leaving too many objects is, after all, much better than destroying the repo. -- robin -- 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
