From ae4e89e549b76b561a1c384dd7314c9b671c22bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Nguy=E1=BB=85n=20Th=C3=A1i=20Ng=E1=BB=8Dc=20Duy?= Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2018 17:36:14 +0200 Subject: gc: add --keep-largest-pack option MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This adds a new repack mode that combines everything into a secondary pack, leaving the largest pack alone. This could help reduce memory pressure. On linux-2.6.git, valgrind massif reports 1.6GB heap in "pack all" case, and 535MB in "pack all except the base pack" case. We save roughly 1GB memory by excluding the base pack. This should also lower I/O because we don't have to rewrite a giant pack every time (e.g. for linux-2.6.git that's a 1.4GB pack file).. PS. The use of string_list here seems overkill, but we'll need it in the next patch...
