Subject: Does a git pull have to be so big?
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2006 08:45:29 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200601130845.29797.ncunningham@cyclades.com> (raw)
Hi.
I try to do pulls reasonably often, but they always seem to be huge downloads
- I'm sure they're orders of magnitude bigger than a simple patch would be.
This leads me to ask, do they have to be so big? I'm on 256/64 ADSL at home,
did a pull yesterday at work iirc, and yet the pull this morning has taken at
least half an hour. Am I perhaps doing something wrong?
I'm using cogito .16-2 (ubuntu) and git 1.0.6.
Regards,
Nigel
