hello,
I read this:
http://metalinguist.wordpress.com/2007/12/06/the-woes-of-git-gc-aggressive-and-how-git-deltas-work/
where
git repack -a -d --depth=250 --window=250
is mentioned as a (recommended) alternative to git gc --aggressive.
I am a bit confused, because the page also mentions that git gc --aggressive
is recommended when a repo has been imported using git fast-import.
So my questions are:
1. is the above repack command (with --depth=500) safe? Of course I want
to be absolutely sure that our repo will be consistent.
Do I need another command ("git gc", "git prune") as well?
2. is it the right tool for the job or shall I use git gc --aggressive?
Thanks!
