Hello,
I have a local folder with the git-repository (so that its .git/config
contains ([remote "origin"]\n url = git://github.com/git/git.git\nfetch
= +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* )
I do there "git pull".
Usually the output is
Already up to date
but since today it prints
Auto packing the repository in background for optimum performance.
See "git help gc" for manual housekeeping.
Already up-to-date.
and starts in the background a "git gc --auto" process. This is all
fine, however, when the "git gc" process finishes, and I do again "git
pull" I get the same message, as above (git gc is again started).
My understanding is, that "git gc" has to be occasionally run and then
the garbage collection is done for a while. In the concrete case, if
"git pull" starts "git gc" in the background and prints a message on
this, it is all fine, but running "git pull" after a while, when the
garbage collection was recently done, where shall be neither message nor
an action about "git gc".
My system-wide gitconfig contains "[pack] threads = 1".
I have "tar xJf"'ed my local git repository and have put it under
http://mail.aegee.org/dpa/v/git-repository.tar.xz
The question is:
Why does "git pull" every time when it is invoked today print
information about "git gc"?
I have git 2.3.3 adjusted with "./configure --with-openssl
--with-libpcre --with-curl --with-expat".
Thanks in advance for your answer
Dilian
