It looks like for my repo the size win wasn't as big (~10%). Is it possible that with the kernel test you got extremely lucky and there was some huge binary blob that thin packing turned into a tiny delta?
The repo I'm testing with here isn't a typical codebase -- it is used to store configuration information and it has very different update patterns than most codebases. When you get a chance, it'd be handy if you could push an updated version of your change out to your public github repo. I'd like to see if folks here are interested in testing this more, and it'd be good to make sure we're testing the diff that is targeted for upstream.

The timings should be similar to what your patch produced, but I'm really curious to see how the pack size changes. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
