Fair enough. If I state my actual goals -- discarding old, uninteresting history, in a "rolling" fashion? (periodically using a script that says "forget anything older than one month") -- is there a better way? The repository is not standalone, it receives pushes from hundreds of clients, and gets pulled from a couple of clients. All clients are "in sync", in that will be pulling every hour (vs a "time window" of one month). At this stage, and with careful management (ie: custom gc scripts) git makes for an excellent async log/report transfer tool. We specially appreciate that it has "deep buffer". cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first ~ http://docs.moodle.org/en/User:Martin_Langhoff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
