I'm supposedly on that list and I haven't gotten a message all week? is it low traffic? or do I have a subscription/other problem. It's fairly low traffic. The last discussion was just under 2 weeks ago, was about how Manifests would need to be changed to cut down on merge conflicts. The last proposal on that was to consider a form of slim Manifest for developers only (it would still be a full form going to rsync), where objects in git were not explicitly tracked in the Manifest, but rather but signed commits (not tags), as their checksums were tracked by the DVCS anyway. Additionally, there is this pending item on a Git resource usage bug that hurts badly during the initial clone: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-scm/msg_df7c98ec7d2e313856bec31769df407f.xml -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux Developer Infra Guy E-Mail : robb...@gentoo.org GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85 pgp5sSjR9Ckc7.pgp Description: PGP signature
