Subject: Incremental push w/o compression
Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 02:22:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101028002224.GA6335@nibiru.local> (raw)

Hi folks,


as discussed in earlier threads, I'm using git for backups on an
machine with quite low memory. Committing works fine now, but
pushing still makes trouble: it takes way too long for compressing.
Is there a way do disable delta compression and transfer the
objects (at least the larger ones) separately (so they're already
on the remote and dont have to be re-transmitted in next pass,
even when the refs have not yet been updated) ?


BTW: what really happens when I push another ref, which has mostly
the same objects, but a different history ? Will the already
present objects be reused or are they all transfered a second time ?
