It shouldn't matter how aggressively the repositories are packed or what the binary differences are between the pack files are. git clone should (with the --reference option) generate a new pack for you with only the missing objects. If these objects are ~52 MiB then a lot has been committed to the repository, but you're not going to be able to get around a big download any other way. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
