From 22c79eab2956d7f47ff2495104583a25208565ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Pitre Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2008 00:24:53 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] repack.usedeltabaseoffset config option now defaults to "true" As announced for 1.6.0. Access over the native protocol by old git versions is unaffected as this capability is negociated by the protocol. Otherwise setting this config option to "false" and doing a 'git repack -a -d' is enough to remain compatible with ancient git versions (older than 1.4.4).
