From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2009 09:45:22 -0700 This clarifies the pruning rules for unreachable commits by having a separate helpder function for the unreachability decision. It's preparation for actual bigger changes to come to speed up the decision when the reachability calculations become a bottleneck. In the process it also _does_ change behavior, although in a way that I think is much saner than the old behavior (which was in my opinion not designed, just a result of how the tests were written). It now will prune reflog entries that are older than that 'prune_unreacable' time _and_ that have commit references that can't be even looked up. Of course, "--stale-fix" also does that, and does it regardless of the age of the reflog entry is, but I really think this is the right thing to do. If we can't even look it up, we should consider it to be unreachable.
