| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Makefiles in subdirectories now use existing value of INSTALL, bindir, mandir if it is set, allowing those to be set in main Makefile or in included config.mak. Main Makefile exports variables which it sets. Accidentally it renames bin to bindir in Documentation/Makefile (should be bindir from start, but is unused, perhaps to be removed).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pack-file format is slightly different from the traditional git object format, in that it has a much denser binary header encoding. The traditional format uses an ASCII string with type and length information, which is somewhat wasteful. A new object format starts with uncompressed binary header followed by compressed payload -- this will allow us later to copy the payload straight to packfiles. Obviously they cannot be read by older versions of git, so for now new object files are created with the traditional format. core.legacyheaders configuration item, when set to false makes the code write in new format for people to experiment with.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some repositories, deltas simply don't make sense. One can disable them for git-repack by adding --window, but git-push insists on making the deltas which can be very CPU-intensive for little benefit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, git-tar-tree(1) sets file and directories modes to 0666 or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects such as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects. With this variable, it becomes possible to tell git-tar-tree(1) to apply a specific umask to the modes above. The special value "user" indicates that the user's current umask will be used. This should be enough for most projects, as it will lead to the same permissions as git-checkout(1) would use. The default value remains 0, which means world read-write.
