Hi, I noticed that not all of the commits from the KWordQuiz repository are present in my working clone.
Let's start with my use case. I tried to track down where a i18n string was broken and "git blame" pointed me to a merge commit (e2d5c497 " Merge frameworks branch into master" [1]). The first problem was that, because there was a merge, I couldn't easily see what exact commits from the merged sequence of commits was guiltly. OK, I decided to see them all. No such luck - those commits do not exist in my clone, i.e. "git show 7c708a619e344c6b835eaa7753518ee8ace24861" does not work for example. But if I watch it in at projects.kde.org, it works! [2] Two questions: 1. How can I pull those obscure commits from the server? I guess a normal "git clone" did not pull them because the "frameworks" branch the merge has been done from is now gone. 2. If someone runs "git gc" on the server, will the respective Git objects for those commits be removed permanently?
