Hi all,
This is going to be a longish one, so please pull up a chair.

I'm trying to get a repository . The repo. is
https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-game . Now I'm on a unstable
network so first I tried the classical way :-

$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-game.git
Cloning into 'flare-game'...
remote: Counting objects: 2731, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (2474/2474), done.
Killeding objects:  17% (470/2731), 134.73 MiB | 57.00 KiB/s

My network went down and I had to kill the running process because
when the network came back git didn't start from where it had let off.

So I did the following :-

Code: Select all
    ~/games/flare-game$ git fetch --depth=1
remote: Counting objects: 2735, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (2477/2477), done.
remote: Total 2735 (delta 331), reused 2401 (delta 239)
Receiving objects: 100% (2735/2735), 353.25 MiB | 53.00 KiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (331/331), done.
>From https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-game
   * [new branch]      master     -> origin/master

Now I tried to unshallow the repo.

~/games/flare-game$ git fetch --unshallow
remote: Counting objects: 29729, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (9191/9191), done.
Receiving objects:  46% (13271/28465), 124.33 MiB | 58.00 KiB/s

I went to ~/games/flare-game/.git/objects/pack and saw this :-

$ ll -h
    total 396M
    -r--r--r-- 1 shirish shirish  76K Aug 25 15:46
pack-371aa15aba2c7ff036e7964ee5736125404b5dce.idx
    -r--r--r-- 1 shirish shirish 354M Aug 25 15:46
pack-371aa15aba2c7ff036e7964ee5736125404b5dce.pack
    -r--r--r-- 1 shirish shirish  43M Aug 25 16:47 tmp_pack_BLnuHj

If I remove the last tmp file and try git fsck and git gc I get the following :-

    ~/games/flare-game$ git fsck
    notice: HEAD points to an unborn branch (master)
    Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
    Checking objects: 100% (2735/2735), done.

as well as :-

~/games/flare-game$ git gc
 Counting objects: 2735, done.
Delta compression using up to 2 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (2385/2385), done.
Writing objects: 100% (2735/2735), done.
Total 2735 (delta 331), reused 2735 (delta 331)

If I now do :-

~/games/flare-game$ git fetch --unshallow

Would it give me the other 100/150 MB remaining without re-downloading
the whole 350 MB again i.e. just the diff.? The repo. is supposedly
around 500/600 MB .

Looking forward for some clarity.
