From 5c47e1c7c56c60360646367e4067ed344a833b01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Jan=20Kr=C3=BCger?= Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2010 14:19:36 +0200 Subject: repack: add -F flag to let user choose between --no-reuse-delta/object MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In 479b56ba ('make "repack -f" imply "pack-objects --no-reuse-object"'), git repack -f was changed to include recompressing all objects on the zlib level on the assumption that if the user wants to spend that much time already, some more time won't hurt (and recompressing is useful if the user changed the zlib compression level). However, "some more time" can be quite long with very big repositories, so some users are going to appreciate being able to choose. If we are going to give them the choice, --no-reuse-object will probably be interesting a lot less frequently than --no-reuse-delta. Hence, this reverts -f to the old behaviour (--no-reuse-delta) and adds a new -F option that replaces the current -f.
