Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Also use 'track_object_refs = 0' in update-server-info."
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2005 10:20:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7v1x2p49lp.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20051013161010.GC12092@master.mivlgu.local> (Sergey Vlasov's message of "Thu, 13 Oct 2005 20:10:10 +0400")

Sergey spotted a grave bug, already in "master", which shows my
lack of testing.  I just pushed out his fix, which is to revert
d119e3de13ea1493107bd57381d0ce9c9dd90976.  It should propagate
to the mirrors soon.

If you used git-update-server-info with the bug on your
repository, you will find a huge objects/info/packs file.
Usually it should list just a handful edge tags and commits, but
with the bug it practically lists everything.

After rebuilding the fixed git-update-server-info, please run
'git-update-server-info -f' there to fix this problem.

Sorry for the stupid bug, and many thanks to Sergey.

 ------------

This reverts d119e3de13ea1493107bd57381d0ce9c9dd90976 commit.

Object references are used in server-info.c:find_pack_info_one() to
find out which objects in the pack are heads, therefore tracking of
references cannot be disabled.

 Looks like this bug has caused objects/info/packs in the linux-2.4
 repository to grow huge and hit the limit, which I then needed to remove
 in the previous patch.
