git-sh-setup: die if outside git repository.

2005-11-25T21:49:17Z

Now all the users of this script detect its exit status and die, complaining that it is outside git repository. So move the code that dies from all callers to git-sh-setup script. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

git-repack: Properly abort in corrupt repository

2005-11-21T22:08:49Z

In a corrupt repository, git-repack produces a pack that does not contain needed objects without complaining, and the result of this combined with -d flag can be very painful -- e.g. a lossage of one tree object can lead to lossage of blobs reachable only through that tree.

git-repack: do not do complex redundancy check.

2005-11-19T20:13:53Z

With "-a", redundant pack removal is trivial, and otherwise redundant pack removal is pointless; do not call git-redundant-pack from this script. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Remove all old packfiles when doing "git repack -a -d"

2005-11-18T22:26:31Z

No point in running git-pack-redundant if we already know which packs are redundant. Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

git-repack: Fix variable name

Three times remove_redandant -> remove_redundant. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Make git-pack-redundant consider alt-odbs

2005-11-12T05:19:11Z

This patch changes git-pack-redundant so that packfiles in alternate object directories also are considered when deciding which objects are redundant. This functionality is controlled by the flag '--alt-odb'. Also convert the other flags to the long form, and update docs and git-repack accordingly.

Rename git-pack-intersect to git-pack-redundant

2005-11-12T05:19:11Z

This patch renames git-pack-intersect to git-pack-redundant as suggested by Petr Baudis. The new name reflects what the program does, rather than how it does it. Also fix a small argument parsing bug. Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Be marginally more careful about removing objects

2005-10-28T21:25:02Z

The git philosophy when it comes to disk accesses is "Laugh in the face of danger". Notably, since we never modify an existing object, we don't really care that deeply about flushing things to disk, since even if the machine crashes in the middle of a git operation, you can never really have lost any old work. At most, you'd need to figure out the proper heads (which git-fsck-objects can do for you) and re-do the operation. However, there's two exceptions to this: pruning and repacking. Those operations will actually _delete_ old objects that they know about in other ways (ie that they just repacked, or that they have found in other places). However, since they actually modify old state, we should thus be a bit more careful about them. If the machine crashes and the duplicate new objects haven't been flushed to disk, you can actually be in trouble. This is trivially stupid about it by calling "sync" before removing the objects. Not very smart, but we're talking about special operations than are usually done once a week if that. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
