Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] pack-refs: teach pack-refs --include option
Date: Tue, 09 May 2023 19:18:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <03950e8f120e48b7df68f3273bbb2f7bb1e9073d.1683659931.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1501.v2.git.git.1683659931.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: John Cai <johncai86@gmail.com>
Allow users to be more selective over which refs to pack by adding an
--include option to git-pack-refs.
The existing options allow some measure of selectivity. By default
git-pack-refs packs all tags. --all can be used to include all refs,
and the previous commit added the ability to exclude certain refs with
--exclude.
While these knobs give the user some selection over which refs to pack,
it could be useful to give more control. For instance, a repository may
have a set of branches that are rarely updated and would benefit from
being packed. --include would allow the user to easily include a set of
branches to be packed while leaving everything else unpacked.

The command usually removes loose refs under `$GIT_DIR/refs`

+--include <pattern>::

+Pack refs based on a `glob(7)` pattern. Repetitions of this option
+accumulate inclusion patterns. If a ref is both included in `--include` and
+`--exclude`, `--exclude` takes precedence. Using `--include` does not preclude
+all tags from being included by default. Symbolic refs and broken refs will never
+be packed. When used with `--all`, it will be a noop. Use `--no-include` to clear
+and reset the list of patterns.
