Subject: Why pack+unpack?
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2005 00:39:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42E5BE91.2050901@pobox.com> (raw)
Whenever I pull a local repository, such as
cd /spare/repo/libata-dev
git pull /spare/repo/linux-2.6/.git
git will pack, then unpack, the objects being pulled. AFAICT this is
just a complete waste of time. Why does this occur?
Packing 1394 objects
Unpacking 1394 objects
100% (1394/1394) done
It doesn't seem to make any sense to perform work, then immediately undo
that work, just for a local pull.
Jeff
