From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 5 Mar 2006 19:22:57 +0000 (-0800) Subject: pack-objects: simplify "thin" pack. X-Git-Tag: v1.3.0-rc1~43^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=70ca1a3f854be0d3b429e66f1484f9ca73a79828;p=git.git pack-objects: simplify "thin" pack. There was a misguided logic to overly prefer using objects that we are not going to pack as the base object. This was unnecessary. It does not matter to the unpacking side where the base object is -- it matters more to make the resulting delta smaller.
