It is potentially still useful for other code paths besides receive-pack. But if the main concern is pushes, then yeah, I think it is not really doing anything. > I guess if we fail the receive-pack because the pack is bigger than > receive.maxInputSize, then the "quarantine" directory will also be > removed, so the part of the pack that we received before failing the > receive-pack will be deleted. Correct. _Any_ failure up to the tmp_objdir_migrate() call will drop the objects. So that includes index-pack failing for any reason. > > These two patches set that up by letting index-pack and pre-receive > > know that quarantine path and use it to store arbitrary files that > > _don't_ get migrated to the main object database (i.e., the log file > > mentioned above). > > It would be nice to have a diffstat for the whole series. You mean in the cover letter? I do not mind including it if people find them useful, but I personally have always just found them to be clutter at that level. -Peff
