Subject: git-add has gone lstat() mad
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 20:55:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200703302055.13619.andyparkins@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I was interested in trying out the GIT_WORK_DIR stuff, but ended up 
being unable to.  The thing that stopped me is present in master as 
well:

 $ git --version
 git version 1.5.1.rc3.20.gaa453
 $ cd $HOME
 $ git init
 $ git add .bashrc

At this point the CPU pegs at 100% systime.  An strace shows that git is 
calling lstat64() on every file in my home directory.  I killed git 
before it scanned everything I've ever done.

I only want to track one file; is git meant to scan every file in the 
directory even though I'm not adding any of them?



Andy
